Mark Robert MichaelWahlberg(born June 5, 1971) is an American actor, rapper and producer of film and television. He was known as Marky Mark in his earlier years and became famous in his 1991 debut as a rap musician with the band Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. Wahlberg has appeared in numerous films, includingThe Other Guys(2010),Boogie Nights(1997) andThe Departed(2006) for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He also serves as one of the co-executive producers for the HBO television series Entourage.

EarlyLife[2] Wahlberg was born in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, the youngest of nine children, with siblings Arthur, Jim, Paul, Robert, Tracey, Michelle, Debbie (died in 2003 at age 44), and Donnie. He is of Swedish, Irish, and French Canadian ancestry. His mother, Alma Elaine (néeDonnelly), was a bank clerk and nurse's aide, and his father, Donald Edward Wahlberg, was a Teamster who worked as a delivery driver. His parents divorced in [3] 1982. Wahlberg had a Roman Catholic upbringing and attended Copley Square High School (but never graduated) on Newbury Street in Boston. As a teenager, Wahlberg participated in multiple acts of violence and vandalism. He later claimed to have been in trouble 20–25 times with the Boston Police Department as a youth. By the age of thirteen, Wahlberg had developed [4] [5] a serious addiction to cocaine and other substances. At fifteen, he harassed a group of African American school [6] children on a field trip by throwing rocks (causing injuries) and shouting epithets. When he was sixteen, after robbing a pharmacy under the influence of PCP, Wahlberg knocked a middle aged Vietnamese man unconscious, left another Vietnamese man permanently blinded in one eye, and attacked a security guard (again using racist [7] [8] language). For these crimes, Wahlberg was charged for attempted murder, pled guilty to assault, and was

Mark Wahlberg [7] [9] sentenced to two years in jail at Boston's Deer Island House of Correction, of which he served 45 days. In yet [10] another incident, the 21-year-old Wahlberg fractured the jaw of a neighbor in an unprovoked attack. Commenting in 2006 on his youthful indiscretions, Wahlberg has stated : "I did a lot of things that I regretted and I certainly paid [11] for my mistakes".MusiccareerWahlberg was assisted to fame as the younger brother of Donnie Wahlberg of the successful 1980s and 1990s boy band New Kids on the Block. Mark, at age thirteen, had been one of the group's original members, along with Donnie, Danny Wood, Jordan Knight, and Jonathan Knight. Uninterested in the group's bubblegum pop style, however, he soon quit. It was his departure that eventually allowed Joe McIntyre to take his place as the fifth member of the group. Wahlberg began recording as Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch and earned a hit with "Good Vibrations" from the [5] albumMusic for the People. The record was produced by Donnie and hit #1 on The Billboard Hot 100, later becoming certified as a Platinum single. The video depicted Mark boxing, lifting weights, posing shirtless, and showing off his muscular build. The second single by the group, "Wildside", peaked at #5 onBillboard's Hot Singles Sales chart and at #10 on The [12] Billboard Hot 100. It was certified as a Gold single. Marky Mark opened for the New Kids on the Block during their last tour. The second Marky Mark LP,You Gotta Believe, wasn't as successful, yielding only a minor hit single in the title track. Wahlberg later collaborated with reggae / ragga singer Prince Ital Joe. Mark's cocky, streetwise persona contributed to his fame. During concert performances, he was known for being [13] shirtless and dropping his pants. The dedication of his 1992 bookMarky Mark, coauthored with photographer [14] Lynn Goldsmith, is "I wanna dedicate this book to my cock".AdvertisingcareerWahlberg is known for his physique, which was first shown in theGood Vibrationsmusic video and most [15] prominently in a series of underwear ads for Calvin Klein shot by Herb Ritts, following it with Calvin Klein [14] television ads. In 1992 the Calvin Klein billboard in New York's Times Square featured Wahlberg exclusively. Magazine and television promotions would sometimes feature him exclusively or accompanied by model Kate Moss. [16] Annie Leibovitz did a photo shoot of Wahlberg in underwear forVanity Fair'sHeannual Hall of Fame issue. made a workout video titledThe Marky Mark Workout: Form... Focus... Fitness(ISBN 1-55510-910-1). Filmcareer

Wahlberg then began an acting career, making his debut in the 1993 TV movieThe Substitute. His big screen debut [14] came the next year, with the Danny DeVito featureRenaissance Man. A basketball fanatic, he caught the attention of critics after appearing inThe Basketball Diariesin 1995, playing the role of Mickey alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, in a film adaptation of the Jim Carroll book of the same name. He also starred in the 1996 James Foley thrillerFear. He earned many positive reviews after successful movies likeBoogie Nightsas Dirk Diggler,Three Kings,The [14] Perfect Storm,The Italian Job, andFour Brothers. His performance inI♥ Huckabeeswas voted best supporting performance of the year in the 2004Village VoiceCritics Poll. Although Wahlberg was originally cast as Linus [17] Caldwell inOcean's Eleven; Matt Damon was recast in the role. The two later worked together inThe Departed.Wahlberg starred in the American football dramaInvincible, based on the true story of bartender-turned-Philadelphia Eagle Vince Papale. He also starred as Leo Davidson inPlanet of the Apes (2001 film), opposite Tim Roth, but did not agree to a sequel. He also appeared in and is the executive producer of the HBO seriesEntourage, which is loosely based on his experiences in Hollywood. He also produces the HBO series "How To Make It In America" and

Wahlberg starred as a foul-mouthed Massachusetts State Police detective in Martin Scorsese's critically acclaimed thrillerThe Departedin 2006, for which he won the National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actor and netted him nominations for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor– Motion Picture. To prepare for his role inShooter, Wahlberg attended long-range shooting training at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute near Pahrump, Nevada, and was able to hit a target at 2000 yards on his first day, a feat which took his [18] instructor about six months to achieve. He has said in a number of interviews that he will retire at the age of 40 to [19] concentrate on parenthood and golf. However, in early 2007 he indicated that the latter was no longer the plan as [20] "his golf game is horrible". In 2007, he starred opposite Joaquin Phoenix inWe Own the Night, a movie about a family of police officers in New York City. The movie also stars Robert Duvall and Eva Mendes. He starred in M. Night Shyamalan'sThe Happeningas Eliot Moore, which opened in movie theatres on June 13, 2008. The same year, he played the title role inMax Payne, based on a video game of the same name. While promotingMax Payne, Wahlberg became involved in a staged feud withSaturday Night Live's Andy Samberg and threatened to "crack that big (bleep)ing nose of his." Samberg had done an impression of Wahlberg in a Saturday [21] [22] Night Live skit titled "Mark Wahlberg Talks To Animals." However, one week later, Wahlberg later appeared in a follow-up skit parodying both the original skit, Samberg's impression of Wahlberg, and his own threats to [23] [24] Samberg.[25] In 2009, Wahlberg played Jack Salmon in Peter Jackson's filmThe Lovely Bonesand in 2010 starred opposite Will Ferrell inThe Other Guys. Video gamecareerMarky Mark and the Funky Bunch had their own video game in theMarky Mark: Make My Videogame series on the Sega Mega-CD. Using various effects, the player is supposed to produce new versions of the videos to Marky Mark songs like "Good Vibrations" and "I Need Money". PC World.ca listed it as the eighth worst video game of all time. Recently, Wahlberg played the title character in theMax Paynefilm based on the popular video games. Even though [26] he played the character in the film, he has stated that he is not going to play the games.Personal life [14] [27] Wahlberg is a practicing Roman Catholic. He married model Rhea Durham on August 1, 2009 in a private [28] Catholic ceremony in Beverly Hills, California. They have four children together, daughters Ella Rae (born in September 2003) and Grace Margaret (born in January 2010), and sons Michael (born in March 2006) and Brendan Joseph (born in September 2008). Actively involved in charity, Wahlberg established theMark Wahlberg Youth Foundationin May 2001 for the [29] purpose of raising and distributing funds to youth service and enrichment programs.[30] Wahlberg had four tattoos done by various artists including Paul Timman. The tattoos included Sylvester the cat with Tweety in his mouth on his ankle, a tattoo of his initials MW with Wahlberg through them on his upper right [31] arm, and a Bob Marley tattoo with "One Love" on his upper left arm. The final tattoo, which Wahlberg considered the most meaningful, was a rosary around his neck, with a crucifix and the words "In God I Trust" resting [31] over his heart. Wahlberg had all of his tattoos removed at the Roxbury Medical Building in Beverly Hills in 2009. [32] His father, a US Army veteran of the Korean War, died on February 14, 2008.On July 29, 2010, Wahlberg received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
