Celebrity Quote of the Day – Mark Wahlberg

Spicy — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 16:46:21 +0000

“Someone showed it to me on YouTube. It wasn’t like Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin, that’s for sure. And “Saturday Night Live” hasn’t been funny for a long time.

They’ve asked me to do the show a ton of times. I used to watch it when Eddie Murphy was there and Joe Piscopo and Bill Murray. I don’t even know who’s on the show now.”

- Mark Wahlberg was not impressed with the SNL skit in which Andy Samberg impersonated him.

Andy Samberg Does Mark Wahlberg Better Than Mark Wahlberg

See video here.

Ok. Saturday Night Live might not be as great as it was at one time or another, but despite it’s downfalls, it always manages to uncover amazing fresh talent.

Andy Samberg is one of the brightest, most gifted comedians the show has seen in recent days. Of course I don’t want to take away from the many SNL greats of our time, but as far as young talent goes, this guy is an oyster with a myriads of pearls.

I’m a little late in posting this, but only because it slipped my mind – not because I forgot.

In this SNL skit, Andy channels Mark Wahlberg, in Barky Bark and the Donkey Bunch, a parody of the Funky Bunch frontman. And although Samberg looks nothing like Wahlberg, and the skit is totally weak, Samberg nails Wahlberg’s voice so well that if we only had the soundtrack, would be convinced we were listening to the actor himself.

That’s the beauty of Samberg. He can take a worthless skit and make it his.

So without further adieu, here is most definitely the best impression of Marky Mark that you will ever hear. I mean, who knew it was even possible to impersonate Mark Wahlberg?

Bravo!

Courteney Cox’s FX show, Dirt, will not be renewed for a third season. She broke the news at the “A Time for Heroes” Celebrity Carnival by saying, “It just got canceled.” However, she adds that she and hubby David, who she co-produced the show with, have other tricks up their sleeve. She dished, “We’re developing all kinds of stuff right now. We’ll producing more stuff together, for sure.” On a side note, Cox recently said her BFF Jennifer Aniston is doing good these days, and the two have been enjoying time together with and without Jen’s flavor of the week, John Mayer.

Mark Wahlberg, 37, is going to be a daddy for the third time. He and longtime girlfriend Rhea Durham, 29, have two other children, daughter, Ella, 4 and son Michael, 2. “When the kids are good, we want eight or nine. When they’re bad, we [want] to stop at three,” Wahlberg said Monday while promoting his new movie, The Happening. Wahlberg didn’t say when the baby is due, but he said that having a family is “awesome . . Hectic at times, but a lot of fun.” He also revealed the pressures of fatherhood. “My fear is failing as a father, as a friend, as a son. I have a lot of responsibility and a lot of people counting on me. And I know God has put me in this position to put back and try to create some opportunities for some others, show kids there is another way.”

Jay Leno is reaching out to “Tonight” show alum Ed McMahon as he faces foreclosure on his Beverly Hills home. “Everybody loves Ed. Jay and others on the show are discussing how they can help him,” Leno’s rep told the NY Daily News. Reportedly, McMahon’s public money troubles have prompted help from fans of Johnny Carson’s former sidekick, including several endorsement offers. “A lot of people have shown generosity,” says Howard Bragman, McMahon’s rep. “Things are going to work out.”

Kate Hudson refused to comment about a possible relationship with Lance Armstrong on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show Monday morning. Hudson was on the show promoting her new eco-friendly hair product line with long time stylist David Babaii. Seacrest probed, “Are the rumors you’re dating Lance Armstrong true?” Hudson replied, “I don’t discuss my personal life . . My main priority in my life is my son and the number one thing I’ve learned is to discuss [these] things only causes more problems and more words taken out of context. Everything is always misconstrued and it’s always better to just let people speculate.” After the show Seacrest said he has a hunch that the two are a couple. “If it weren’t true, I’d say no. If it were true, I’d say what they just said.”

The number one song on Billboard was ‘(Everything I Do) I Do It For You’ by Bryan Adams, the top movie was ‘Terminator 2: Judgment Day’ and everyone was watching ‘Cheers’ on TV.

Here are some celebrities who are still in the spotlight today, as they looked in 1991.
