MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY is coming to the defense of his long-time pal LANCE ARMSTRONG. The seven-time Tour de France champ admitted to doping to enhance his performance in January.
"He told a lie, he's not a liar," McConaughey explains in the April issue of Details. "When it came out, I took it personally, but then I realized it ain't personal to him. I was going, 'That son of a bitch!' but then I thought, 'Well, what was he supposed to do? Call me to the side and go, 'Hey, I did this'? But I'm happy for him now, because despite all this outside conflict, he doesn't have this inner conflict anymore."
