Biography
Matthew knows he's got everything he wants, except for one thing: love. With the everyday trappings of being a major celebrity, finding someone has been a major challenge. Maybe someone that's a little more adverse to the limelight, or just light in general, might make a good match for him?

World Bridgeport

Matthew Hamming is a pre-made playable Sim and the only male 5-star celebrity residing in Bridgeport, the world shipped with The Sims 3: Late Night. He is best friends forever with Richie Striker, good friends with Marina Prattle, Caroline Custard, and Elvira Slayer, dislikes his brother, Michael Sleep, and film director Alan Stanley, and is enemies with Reuben Littler.

Matthew's appearance is very formal, as he wears a scarf and a jacket over his shirt. He has a very muscular body to keep his appearance since he is an important celebrity.

His brother, Michael, is a townie, unlike him, who's a playable Sim. He doesn't share the same surname as his brother. He or his brother might have changed it, or they could just be half-brothers from the same woman marrying different fathers (or vice versa), and are shown as full siblings to simplify. It is also possible that Hamming is one parent's surname while Sleep is the other's.

Matthew is implied to have a hard time looking for the "perfect match" to suit his desires for love. However, in his family bio, it states that he has always left "a trail of broken hearts," perhaps meaning that he makes rash decisions in dating, or that he is trying to find his soul-mate but has had limited success (which can be a consequence of his flirty trait). His personal bio may suggest that he is interested in dating vampires, being that they are "adverse to light in general." If story progression is left on, he and Caroline Custard may become romantic interests.

Matthew is an adult and is 20 days away from becoming an elder. He carries 2 books, 1 guitar, and 1 laptop in his inventory.

Based on his name, appearance, and occupation, Matthew may be based on real-life actor Jon Hamm. Additionally, his last name, Hamming, may also be related to the expression "What a ham!", meaning that an actor is exaggerating their expressions and emotions excessively; in other words, being a show-off.

He and Lola Belle are two of the most famous celebrities in Bridgeport, being the only two five-star celebrities.

Household bio

"Matthew Hamming is no stranger to the limelight. Topping the list of the world's most eligible bachelors and a permanent fixture on the silver screen, is there anything more Matthew could ask for? If tabloids are to be believed, he's still searching for that elusive special lady; the paparazzi has a hard time keeping up with his trail of leading ladies and broken hearts."
