Mark Wahlberg Drops a Ton of F-Bombs in MTV Movie Awards Speech

Mark Wahlberg accepted the MTV Generation Award from the cast of Entourage at Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards and decided to drop about 50 f-bombs in his extended acceptance speech. Looking at the people who have won this inscrutable award over the years, he realized they all have one thing in common: “They’re all fucking old.”

“This is the ‘You’re too fucking old to come back award,'” he told the crowd. “This is ‘you’re fucking done.’ But you know what? It was a great run.”

When he started to get emotional he told the cheering crowd to “Shut the fuck up.” After discussing the beginning of his career, Wahlberg moved on to thanking his wife, who happens to be a Victoria’s Secret model. “I don’t know how in the fuck that happened,” he said. “This is America and anything is possible.”

Of course, MTV’s censors were on top of Wahlberg enough to catch every single one of his f-bombs with a bleep (thanks, five-second delay!), so it looks like the network will escape any possibility of actual controversy.
