Until then, let's take a look at the shots posted by Made in Brazil, who had a first-hand perspective on all the glistening goings-on. Some people have all the luck.

What's not to love about Matthew McConaughey? The piercing eyes, that Texas drawl, his chiseled torso ... and now thanks to the Barbara Walters pre-Oscar special, the sexy leather slide sandals. No closeups, but our friends at FlipFlopErotic have a nice, full length shot to satisfy all you foot fans out there. "Then to spice things up, he offered to give Barbara a foot rub!!!!" Thankfully, no close-ups of that fine bit of acting.
