Mark Wahlberg is your standard, run-of-the-mill tough guy (or so he thinks), so he often says shit that he probably thinks sounds really impressive but actually just makes him look sorta corny and like a bit of an asshole. Latest case in point: during an interview on Conan this week, Mark revealed that his daughter is a big fan of One Direction – and band member Harry Styles, in particular.
Well, Mark doesn’t like that his daughters – one of which who is only 4 years old, keep in mind – likes anyone other than her own father, so he wants to beat the shit out of Harry Styles, who is a “prick” by virtue of his daughter being a fan. I know he wasn’t being serious (one would assume) and that he probably thought he was being “funny” and making a “joke”, but eh… no thanks, bro.
“Now the girls have turned to One Direction, they don’t care about Dad anymore. My 4-year-old’s going, ‘Daddy, I like Harry.’ And I’m like, ‘Well, I’m gonna punch Harry in the nose when I see him.’ I get jealous. If I see that little prick he’s gonna get it.”
Mmkay.
People have said way worse that get a pass everyday. Time to stop over analyzing and take it as it is, a joke. Maybe Harry can go egg the Wahlberg house if his feelings are hurt.
Given that Mark Wahlberg one served prison time ( albeit, a very truncated sentence) for assaulting a man so viciously that it resulted in permanent blindness, he should probably steer clear of making “jokes” like this.
*once
yeah, let’s talk about how he beat the shit out of an innocent bystander strictly because he was asian. awful. being 18 at the time is no excuse. racist fuck mark wahlberg, ladies & gentlemen, put that in your pipe & smoke it. hope his ass got railed in the slammer…no doubt he had to take it in the pooper…

It WAS a joke. He wasn’t just kidding about it being a joke. It was an actual joke. Not a real threat in other words. Get it?
