Who is Mark Wahlberg?

Mark Wahlberg is an industry unicorn. He’s one of the rare stars that successfully transitioned from teen idol to respected actor.

Restaurateur, fashion designer, rapper, underwear model, producer, investor, avid golfer, father, husband, and Oscar-nominated actor, Mark Wahlberg has done it all.

Yet, growing up, life wasn’t perfect. Born in Boston, Wahlberg was the youngest of nine children in a middle class Irish family. He was constantly getting in trouble. In his youth, he spent time in jail following an arrest for assault. Though he ultimately only served 45 days of his two-year sentence, jail time turned out to be the wake up call he needed.

After his incarceration, Mark Wahlberg turned his life around. He started rapping and began his career in entertainment. He had an industry connection too. His older brother, Donnie, was a member of New Kids on The Block. Eventually, Wahlberg left the pop group to pursue a solo career as a hip hop artist.

His rap group, Marky Mark and The Funky Bunch, had success with their #1 single, “Good Vibrations” (1991). In that single he rhymes “my body is healthy”. In addition to his music career, Mark Wahlberg turned to fitness to get his life on the right track.

Though his rap career has been over for a long time, he’s continued to focus on health and fitness. Mark Wahlberg made headlines in 2018 when he posted his schedule for a “typical day” on Instagram stories. The calendar included a 3am workout, Cryo recovery, golf, another workout at 4pm, and six meals.

Aside from his insane schedule, Wahlberg is known for his roles in critically acclaimed films like Three Kings (1999), The Departed (2006) and Instant Family (2018). He’s also a producer. His most famous productions include the HBO series Entourage (2015) and Ballers (2015-2018).
