Summary
Matthew McConaughey posted a video on X early Friday urging Americans to celebrate the July 4 holiday as the country marks its 250th birthday on Saturday.
In the message, the actor called for people to gather with family, friends and even neighbors they disagree with, framing the anniversary as a moment of unity rather than arrival.
His remarks landed as patriotic programming around the America 250 celebration builds, with performer Vanilla Ice also backing the Great American State Fair in Washington despite some artist dropouts.
The outreach adds to a broader push to cast the semiquincentennial as a nationwide, cross-partisan celebration of the United States.
