52-year-old Mark Wahlberg is known for his versatility. Equally adept at action and comedy, the actor has been in the industry for nearly three decades, amassing a net worth of $400 million. However, the actor is also a fitness and bodybuilding enthusiast. Despite being over 50, Wahlberg is fitter and more ripped than many younger actors. Despite his busy schedule, the actor also regularly wakes up at 4 a.m. to get his workout in.

Hence, fans found it hilarious when millionaire comedian and voice actor Ed Bassmaster remarked on Wahlberg’s fitness. Ed Bassmaster filmed a short video as one of his comic personas, Chip Diamond. However, their collaboration isn’t over, as Marky Mark posted another video with the comedian. In the video, Wahlberg makes Bassmaster endorse the tequila brand he backs as another one of his comic characters.

Earlier, the millionaire prankster uploaded a video from inside a gym. While filming the video in the character of his popular persona, Chip Diamond, Bassmaster told some people off-camera to be quiet. “Quite on the set, please. Thank you,”?said the prankster. He then showed that the people in the background were Mark Wahlberg and his training partner.

Bassmaster wrote that the fitness freak had hired him as his trainer. However, it seems Marky Mark had some additional plans. Earlier today, the Max Payne actor “hired” another of Bassmaster’s comic personas to endorse the tequila brand he backs, Flecha Azul Tequila. However, there was one hilarious problem, as Bassmaster’s character Mumbles jumbles up words.

In the video, the father of four asked Mumbles to film a commercial for the brand. While he was enthusiastic, Mumbles couldn’t say anything with clarity. What followed was an even more hilarious scene as Wahlberg stood behind Bassmaster and read out the lines while Bassmaster lip-synced. While the hilarious promo might boost Wahlberg’s brand, he certainly doesn’t need anyone to show him how to workout.
