Mark Wahlberg regrets dedicating a book to his penis in the 90s.

Mark has given up his hell-raising ways and is now a respected actor who recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The 39-year-old married his long-time partner Rhea Durham last year and the couple have four children together.

However, the star found fame as a streetwise teenager and released records as Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. Mark often posed topless to show off his muscular frame and became renowned for dropping his trousers during live performances.

In 1992, he released his memoirs entitled Marky Mark and paid tribute to his genitals in the preface.

When asked why he chose that dedication during Time magazine's Live 10 Questions this week, Mark replied, "I thought it would be funny."

Mark was then jokingly asked if his penis was grateful for the tribute, to which he laughed and quickly responded, "That is one question I won't answer."

The hunk was also quizzed on whether he would ever consider returning to his rapping roots and release another record.

Mark revealed there is one music star that could convince him to enter a recording studio again and he would like to collaborate with this singer because it would impress his children.

"If Justin Bieber asks me, I'll say yes. Only because my daughter loves him," Mark explained.
