Actor Mark Wahlberg, who gained fame as Marky Mark, is one of the most famous and talented actors in the entertainment industry. The actor rose to fame in the late 1990s and 2000s, appearing in films like Three Kings (1999), The Perfect Storm (2000), Planet of the Apes (2001), The Italian Job (2003), and The Departed (2006).

The actor has given countless interviews in his life, however, he will not forget this one. The actor once appeared on The Graham Norton Show completely intoxicated, making other stars uncomfortable, and finally falling asleep halfway through the interview.

In 2013, actor Mark Wahlberg appeared on The Graham Norton Show with stars Sarah Silverman and Michael Fassbender and the actor was so drunk on the show that he didn’t let anyone finish their stories as he kept interrupting. Graham Norton later appeared on BBC’s The Morning and talked about Wahlberg’s interview,
“I think it’s that sort of thing when you finish drinking, that isn’t the drunkest you’re going to be. You realise when you get home, ‘Ooh, I’m drunker than when I left the pub’. I think maybe there was a bit of a timelapse and he did get very drunk.”
It turns out that Wahlberg is lightweight when it comes to alcohol. The actor was drinking wine as he started out the interview, and it seems like that was a lot for him.

Graham Norton further explained that the actor finally fell asleep when Michael Fassbender was narrating a story,
“We couldn’t get any stories going, and then Michael Fassbender was on and he was getting this story away and I was like, ‘Wow, this must be a good story,’ because Mark Wahlberg’s letting him tell it. Then I looked at Mark Wahlberg and he was asleep… we didn’t wake him, we were delighted.”
After flipping everyone off and interrupting everyone, Wahlberg fell asleep halfway through the interview.
