Worried about putting on a few pounds over the holidays? A new video from Mark Wahlberg won’t make you feel any better.
The Hollywood actor, 51, posted a workout video to his Instagram yesterday to demonstrate his ripped physique. The posting’s enjoyed almost half a million likes.
In it, Wahlberg shows off an impressively shredded torso. He also mock punches the gut of a business partner: Tom Dowd. The two men run their own protein-enhanced nutrition brand.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Among those to praise Wahlberg’s body was kickboxer Rico Verhoeven (“Damn brother great shape🔥”), and actor Mario Lopez (“Killin it my man!”).
Wahlberg found fame in the late 80s as the younger brother of New Kids On The Block’s Donnie Wahlberg. He enjoyed his own stint of music success and made waves as a model. Marky Mark, as he was known back then, starred in an iconic campaign for Calvin Klein, showing off his abs.

Wahlberg then found much greater success as an actor. He scored another big hit earlier this year with Uncharted, alongside Tom Holland. Forthcoming projects include Netflix thriller Our Man From Jersey and Apple TV’s The Family Plan.

He sold his azz to be in CKs in Times Square, and pissed because CK got his cherry.

Racist? You’re holding him to his juvenile self 30 + years ago. I thought he was exceptional in Joe Bell, based on a true story of father coming to terms with his gay sons suicide.

When he was Marky Mark the other members of his band were al black.

I can accept that people can change from the mistakes of their youth, but the fact that he recently sought a f*cking pardon from the state of Massachusetts for the incident and used his religious piety as one example of why he deserved it? Didn’t do him any favors.

… Seriously, Queerty? Y’all know he’s a humongous homophobe, right?

It’s funny that the face just doesn’t match the body. Facially I’d say late 50s but the body still looks like his Calvin Klein days.

HGH is wonderful. Expensive but worth it…
Creamsicle
His chest is a lot smaller than it could be with arms and shoulders like that.
wikidBSTN
His chest looks oddly underdeveloped.

Not to go all Q on people, but the idea of a republican media conglomerate using us does enter the mind.
Do you ever feel patronized? CHECK
Do you ever feel exploited? CHECK
Do you ever feel distracted from the ”Gay Agenda” by all of this trash, inc Marky Mark? CHECK
Do you ever feel like our GAY train has come off the Gay track by consuming all of this (mostly) garbage? CHECK
Thoughts?

It’s a shame the face hasn’t held up as well.

No longer in 70s Bar Closet for anonymous activity?

My memory was a bit foggy, so I pulled up the Wikipedia article on Mark Wahlberg.
It’s hard to miss the lengthy section on “Legal Issues” which detail Wahlberg’s life-long history of racism and physical violence.

BARF to this racist, homophobic, right-wing creep! But Queerty (David Hudson and co.) keeps pushing him, over and over!

Let me just second every post above mine. He’s gross.
scotty
