Marky Mark disses George?

Listen, Mark. I managed to forgive you for your past embarrassments, notably your bad-boy phase and the whole Funky Bunch thing (including that workout video you made), and have, in recent years, developed quite a serious crush on you and your smokin' hot bod.

Now, I appreciate a good-looking man who isn't afraid to speak his mind, and that's why I'm a bit torn about what Mark has said about George Clooney recently.

Before the part of Linus Caldwell in Ocean's Eleven went to Matt Damon, Mark was considered for the role. He turned it down, a move he doesn't regret even though the movie turned out to be a huge success.

In an interview with Zoo magazine, Mark was asked if it was true that he refused the role. "Yeah — and it was well worth it," he said, adding, "the second one sucked!"

Okay, I see his point. Not every actor strikes gold with each film, and have to admit I haven't seen Ocean's Twelve.

"People tell George Clooney it's great, but we all know it sucked," Mark said. “I made two bad movies instead — Planet of the Apes and The Truth About Charlie — but doing that was better than sitting with Brad (Pitt) and George, telling the press how great everybody is! 'We were in Europe, George was funny, then we had some wine ...' — that's not for me."

Calling it like he sees it is an admirable quality, right? I mean, I can look past the fact that he's kind of dissing George and focus instead on his rock-hard abs.

Mark did, however, cover his butt make sure to note his respect for George and the rest of the Ocean's cast, saying, "I do love those guys, but I had to step out on my own."

I think they should settle this diss by having a naked wrestling cage match attended by you, me, ms blue and a few select girlfriends. No husbands allowed. You in?

Count me in, MB. I'll even buy the first round...

And yeah, Mark is some cute. I mean, no Matt Damon, I'm glad he got it instead, but still. In the Big Hit? Yum. He's cleaned up nicely.
