Mark Wahlberg 'Got Into a Lot of Trouble' When He Was Younger
Whoopi Goldberg disapproved of Joy Behar asking Mark Wahlberg about his troubled past.
The actor explained that he first turned to faith when he "got into a lot of trouble when I was younger."
"That kind of discipline has afforded me now so many wonderful things and I want to share that with people," he stated. "And I certainly want to help kids avoid making the same mistakes I made when I was younger."

Mark Wahlberg wasn't bothered by Joy Behar's question.
Goldberg and Behar then exchanged inaudible words about the awkward moment as the Ted star admitted, "It's a long list."
The father-of-four regrets 'following others' when he was younger.
"The worst thing that I did was probably follow others when I should’ve been more of a leader," the father-of-four continued. "But that’s very, very difficult to do at a young age, when you’re easily influenced and in a bad area."
"See? Good answer," Behar declared.
The former model has been open about his troubled past, which included racially charged attacks and jail time. In 1988, he plead guilty to felony assault after verbally and physically attacking two Vietnamese-American men while on drugs. Wahlberg was originally sentenced to three months behind bars but spent only 45 days in jail.

"No. We'll be right back," Goldberg stated, prompting Behar and her costars to laugh as the show cut to commercial.
