Mark Wahlberg laughs off Funky Bunch Reunion

Older brother Donnie , reunited with his band the New Kids On the Block and so
MTV recently asked Mark Wahlberg if Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch would be reuniting any time soon? Mark gave a pretty resounding no saying:

“Not a f***ing chance!”

He went on to say:

“They asked me if I would partake and I had to decline. Part of me would love to run around and act like a freaking a–hole again but I can’t do that. I’ve got two kids. (and a third on the way) I saw something on VH1 or something about me in the 90s and I thought, oh my God, how am I going to explain this to my kids? I have a few years to think about how to finesse it but I do think about it on a daily basis.”

Looks like Mark is totally into leaving the past behind and in his case he can afford to walk away from the easy money it would bring.

And speaking of the New Kids reunion, Mark says, “Whatever floats your boat. If the Rolling Stones can be wheeled out on wheelchairs then why can’t the New Kids go out there?”

He did go on to say that hip-hop is a young mans game hence his reluctance, while pop music is a bit more forgiving to age so his brother’s reunion makes more sense. Here’s the video of the interview.
