Mark Wahlberg | Born in 1971

Mark Wahlberg’s remarkable body is the only thing that has remained consistent throughout his career—but that’s about all. He launched his career as a young rapper in the 1990s and has since evolved into one of Hollywood’s finest chameleon actors.

His brother Donnie, who was famous as a member of the boyband New Kids on the Block, assisted him in finding a new course in life. Donnie believed his brother’s appearance, history, and demeanor qualified him to be a rap artist. As a result, he lined up meetings with executives from record labels, and Wahlberg began recording under Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. He chose to try his hand at acting and caught the acting bug after spending 20 weeks filming Renaissance Man. Wahlberg has a net worth of $290 million today, credits to his successful movies, projects, burger restaurant, and car dealership.
