Ultra-retro hottie

For some odd reason, I find looking at images of a sexy younger Marky Mark (now known as Mark Walhberg) to be almost something of a guilty pleasure.

...probably somewhat in part having to do with yesterday's front-page Digg article (which didn't exactly leave him in the most positive light to say the least)... Or the fact that his younger days were rife with shameless cocky self-promotion... (an aspect of his career that I personally don't mind to be honest ). Whatever the case Mark was in fact super hot back in his early 90s musical days.

And in many respects, he still is today... not that he'd get a spot on my Ipod (that's reserved for actual music)... but he'll always have a place on my DVD rack (and of course as you can tell, in .jpeg format on my comp ).

Since Mark's departure from the music industry, he's gone on to transition into one of the most wildly successful acting careers any former musician could ever hope for. From Boogie Nights, to the Perfect Storm, Planet of the Apes, to the Italian Job and the Departed, the list really stretches on and on... Interestingly enough, he has two movies in production that I'm really curious in seeing how the end result will turn out... namely Max Payne and the Brazilian Job. Should be a quite hectic next few years for this guy. Very lucky man indeed.
