Matthew McConaughey and his 15-year-old daughter Vida are supporting Texas and women's sports. The pair were photographed supporting the Texas Longhorns women's basketball team at their game against the Tennessee Volunteers. The McConaughey's encouragement seems to have paid off, with the Longhorns winning the game 80-76.

McConaughey wore a tan suede jacket that he paired with a white t-shirt, jeans, and a large belt. Vida wore jeans and a cropped UT shirt, looking strikingly like her mother Camila Alves McConaughey with her long brown hair and strong eyebrows.

Fans and photographers were distracted by the McConaugheys, taking photos of them as the game developed. A woman can be seen taking a photo of McConaughey as he smiles and looks up towards the jumbotron.

Vida celebrated her 15th birthday this past January 15th, triggering emotional posts from both of her parents.

Camila and Matthew's birthday tributes for their only daughter

McConaughey commemorated his daughter's birthday on Instagram, sharing an old photo of her kneeling in the dirt as she tends to the garden.

"Vida. 15 years. Thanks for being my tech guru, so savvy, and for loving to grow things. Love Papai," he captioned the post.

Camila's post showed various photos of Vida over the years. The images show her spending time with her brother Livingston when he was a baby, smiling for the camera alongside her mother, and interacting with various animals, including an iguana and a horse.

She captioned the post in English and Portuguese. "Yesterday this force of a girl turned 15!" she wrote. "May you never forget that the first person to love is YOU….Your name says it all…Vida! We love you so much words can not express!"

McConaughey and Camila are parents to three kids: Levi, 16, Vida, and Livingston, 12. The family is based in Texas and is deeply involved in their community, supporting sports teams and developing initiatives like Just Keep Livin' Foundation and Women of Today, which empower high school students and women of the community.
