Judy Greer told Entertainment Tonight in a recent interview that Matthew McConaughey came to her aid after “The Wedding Planner” table read. She was “so broke” at the time and could not afford to pay the parking valet at the Roosevelt Hotel. McConaughey stepped in with cash to save the day.

“I valeted my car; I didn’t know any better,” Greer said. “I didn’t have enough money to get my car out of the valet because I was so broke. I was on the pay phone in the lobby, calling my friend Sean Gunn and Matthew McConaughey overheard me and gave me $20. I was so mortified, but also: my hero.”
