A&E > Mark Wahlberg Trivia You Don't Wanna Know

You know that Mark Wahlberg started out as Marky Mark the rapper. Did you know Marky Mark wrote a biography?

My friend Christine read Marky Mark Wahlberg's autobiography. It was written before his movie career, which I don't think anybody saw coming in a million years, I guess to cash in on his tenuous rappin' fame. She didn't have a lot to say about the book other than the fact that it is unintentionally hilarious and there is a passage about the fact that Mark Walburg possesses a superfluous third nipple -- and I quote Christine quoting him: "bitches like to suck it"

Ha! That sounds like Amy Poehler's bad attitude SNL character. "Yeah, I farted...jealous?"

The Mark Wahlberg thing made me think of Katherine Coble, who hates Marky Mark and pretty much the entire cast of The Departed, but liked the movie anyway. Wahlberg plays the same laid back, bland character in most of his movies. He got an Oscar nod for branching out into the role of Lieutenant Dickhead in The Departed. He probably got tips from co-star Alec Baldwin, who plays an awesome dickhead in Glengarry Glen Ross and Malice.

Bonus! - Speaking of actors who have actor brothers, besides Mark and Donnie Wahlberg there's Robert Wahlberg, who also plays in The Departed.

Double Bonus! - On the other hand my wife tells me that Adam Baldwin from "Firefly" isn't a Baldwin brother.
