Mark Wahlberg Quit Smoking Pot For His Kids

Most people take time during their acceptance speeches to thank friends and family — Mark Wahlberg explains why he stopped smoking pot.

During his acceptance speech at the Palm Springs Film Festival Mark pointed out how the award looked like a bong and then decided to explain why he quit smoking.

Said Mark:

“I stopped smoking weed for my kids. One day, we were driving and you could smell it from somewhere. My daughter asked what the smell was so I told her it was a skunk. Then she said, ‘Sometimes Daddy smells like that!’ to me and my wife. So I knew I had quit.”

Inhaling smoke is bad for your lungs! We’re glad he stopped!
