Mark Wahlberg Admits He Used To Be Kinda Lame

After years of stand-offish silence, Oscar-nominated actor Mark Wahlberg is finally ready to talk about his previous life as underwear-exposing white rapper Marky Mark. Says the Marky one:

Of course I can talk about it now. The reason why I used to mind, why it bothered me, was because I knew it was going to be the thing that I had to overcome to be respected as an actor. ... But now that I feel I’ve dealt with that I don’t mind the past. ... It’s all part of who I am and it was fun. There were some embarrassing moments - like taking my clothes off. But I did it and I just hope I don’t have to explain it to my daughter in ten years time! Because that is going to be hard!

Come on Marky - embarrassed about taking your clothes off? Why? With that bod? You should be proud of yourself. Hell, you should have those Calvin Klein ads blown up and then wallpaper your house with them. Dang - that's not a bad idea. Marky Mark underwear wallpaper. Where do I get me some?

And oh, just for old time's sake:



Marky Mark - he brought the nation together. To piss its pants laughing.

Mark Wahlberg Is A Natural Man

Mark Wahlberg is a manly man, far too butch and masculine for something as girlie and lame as plastic surgery. Face-lifts? Those are for swishy guys, and wacked-out broads like Courtney Love and Nicolette Sheridan. Nope, says Wahlberg, he will never succumb to the temptation of having his face fixed, not matter how bad he looks:

I wouldn't consider surgery. I can see how people get caught up in it and I hope to learn from their mistakes. Because their facial features are falling off and I don't want that. I wouldn't like to say who, but I think you know.

Yup, we know Mark. And we applaud you for your strength in the face of celebrity foolishness. You're a substantive individual, not some lame-o who's only obsessed with his appearance. Oh, and you look fabulous in your underwear:

Wahlberg (And Piven)

Mark Wahlberg and Jeremy Piven at the premiere of Marky's new movie Shooter. Marky Mark in a movie called Shooter? Ah, it's probably about guns or something. Not the kind of shooting I'd like Marky to do. Mmm - right in the face Marky.

Ugh, but why does Jeremy Piven have to be in the shot? Crabbie needs to do some magic on this one...

Much better.
