According to The Hollywood Reporter, at the junket this past weekend, Matthew revealed, "It's a huge leap of faith to trust a thong. It's your only protection up on stage."

He recalled, "When I first tried it on, my body contorted. And I tried to get myself into every position to see what angles I was covered."
