Matthew McConaughey is absolutely gorgeous in person and funny too! HollywoodLife.com attended the star-studded premiere of his new film Bernie in NYC on April 23 and he told us how he prepared for his role as a stripper alongside Channing Tatum in the upcoming flick Magic Mike.

“We went by one male revue strip club in New Orleans,” he told us at the film screening sponsored by Quintessentially and Asahi. “I was there for about an hour and that was enough.”

But Matthew says that he isn’t only planning on doing adult films, he’s in the midst of writing a kids’ movie!

“I’ve got one that I’m writing right now,” he says. “Kids are like, ‘I love planes and I love dragons and I love lions.’ All of a sudden, they have a lion that they say can fly but then can walk through the city like a lady but then can swim underwater like a fish but can fly like a plane.’”

Following the movie, guests headed over to NYC’s Lilium for the exclusive after-party, where they sipped on Asahi beer.

Jack Black‘s sons Sammy, 4½, and Thomas, 3, didn’t get the pleasure of meeting his co-star and friend Angelina Jolie‘s six kids — Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 4½, and 2-year-old twins, Knox and Vivienne – while they voiced the animated flick Kung Fu Panda 2. The reason? Jack’s boys are not quite as airplane-friendly as Angelina and Brad Pitt‘s bunch!

Unlike Angie, Jack, 41, left his boisterous boys at home when he flew to Cannes for the premiere of Kung Fu Panda 2, which hits theaters on Thursday, May 26. (The day before Shiloh’s 5th birthday!)

“Angelina loads them up on the plane and … they’re used to traveling a lot more than mine are. They got it down with regards to jet-lag,” Jack told HollyBaby.com at the New York premiere of the film on Tuesday, May 24. “Whereas my boys are just like ‘let’s stay up all night’ and then I’ll be a wreck on the red carpet.”

Since they were babies the Jolie-Pitt kids have been traveling the world, whether it be to France or Africa. And considering that’s not normal behavior for most young kids, so we’ll give Sammy and Thomas a break!

Although Angie did admit her kiddies were “running around the hotel, playing games and making a giant mess!” Sounds like the Black boys’ “stay up all night” philosophy would have fit right in with the Brangelina brood!

We all know Angelina Jolie is a doting mom of six, but who knew Brad Pitt‘s love was one of the kindest co-stars in Hollywood?

Jack Black, 41, Angie’s Kung Fu Panda 2 co-star, was the person to tell the world that Brangelina were expecting twins back in 2008. And now that the kung fu duo have reunited for a sequel, Jack recalls the exciting time when Angelina, 35, sent his wife Tanya Haden the best pregnancy present ever!

“You were preggers, and I spilled the beans,” Jack reminisces alongside Angie about the 2008 Cannes interview where he admitted she was carrying twins, Knox and Vivienne. “And my wife, Tanya, was like, `That is the most amazing maternity dress I’ve ever seen.’ You had this gorgeous gown, and she was less preggers, but she had one on the way as well.”

“And you’re like, `Oh, thanks.’ And then, what do we get in the mail like the next week? That gown,” Jack says to Angelina about her green Max Azria gown. “You sent it over. It was one of the sweetest gifts of all time.”

How cool is that? Did you ever think Angelina would send such a touching gift?

Angelina Jolie‘s sultry voice has been a big part of her incredible allure and she’s made millions as a voice actor in cartoon movies like the Kung Fu Panda flicks. Yet her voice is one of her least favorite parts of herself — no matter how much other people may like how she sounds!

“You know, when you hear your own voice, you can find it quite boring and uninteresting,” she tells USA Today. “Suddenly, you get very shy that your voice is not enough, because I’m not musical and I don’t know my voice.”

Despite her eventual success, Angie was so nervous about getting voice-over work that she’d use a variety of voices for auditions!

Her Panda co-star Jack Black – a favorite of her kids — has been an source of inspiration during their work on the latest installment, which opens May 26.

“I was crazy about him,” Angie says. “I had seen him in everything he’d done, but what I really knew him for was music…I don’t have musical talent, so I always thought it was really cool that he could be an actor to a lot of us but equally a rock star.”

So what do you think HollywoodLifers, is Angie too self-critical on her voice, or can you understand how she feels?

Shirley MacLaine is a true icon of the silver screen. Her first onscreen role was in 1955 in Alfred Hitchcock‘s The Trouble With Harry, and she’s had an illustrious career ever since. The pinnacle of her success came when she won an Oscar in the 1983 tearjerker Terms of Endearment. She’s been most recently seen in 2010′s Valentine’s Day and she’s starring in the upcoming Bernie with Matthew McConaughey and Jack Black.

Shirley was married to businessman Steve Parker from 1954 until 1982, and the couple had one daughter together — Sachi Parker, now 54.

Through her life, Shirley has written a number of autobiographical and philosophical books, and she often ties her thoughts on motherhood into the narratives.

“If we can genuinely honor our mother and father we are not only at peace with ourselves but we can give them birth to our future,” she says.

We’re glad parenting has meant so much to this Hollywood icon and hope Sachi will be around to help Shirley celebrate her big day. Happy birthday!

Angelina Jolie and Jack Black are reprising their hysterical (and adorable) roles in Dreamworks’ Kung Fu Panda series this May! Watch the trailer!

It’s been nearly three years since we first witnessed Jack Black as Po the panda in Kung Fu Panda, and he’s back and funnier than ever in this year’s sequel! In Kung Fu Panda 2 — which hits theaters May 26 — Po and his friends (including Angelina Jolie as Tigress) must take down a villain who threatens to take over China and abolish kung fu.

Judging from the new trailer, Kung Fu Panda 2 is going to be even funnier than the first! We can’t wait to see it.

Nickelodeon’s 2011 Kids’ Choice Awards are coming up on April 2, and of course Kristen Stewart is nominated for Favorite Movie Actress for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse!

The 41-year-old father is a pro at cooking kid-friendly foods. “I’m actually a pretty good chef,” he tells Us magazine. We’re not surprised his sons Sammy, 4, and Thomas, 2, with wife Tanya Haden, 39,  whom he married in 2006, love his kitchen creations!

The best place to spot celebrities –  like Jack — and their kids in LA

Kids tend to be picky eaters, but Jack’s specialty is sure to please — because it’s packed full of favorites. So, what’s his gourmet go-to meal? “A macaroni cheeseburger burrito!” he proudly announces! Talk about taking Hamburger Helper to the extreme!

HollyMoms, would you ever make that for your kids?
