Mark Wahlberg starts his day at 2:30 a.m., works out around 4 a.m., plays golf after that, and then gets to work — which might entail going on set (all over the world), taking business meetings, and appearing on talk shows. It’s as varied and demanding as a day can get, and one necessity to handle it, says Wahlberg, is the right wardrobe. After struggling to find clothing with that kind of versatility, Wahlberg decided to launch his own brand, MUNICIPAL , in 2020 alongside his manager Stephen Levinson and golf industry guru Harry Arnett. “We wanted to create stuff that looked cool, that fit and felt great, stuff that you could wear to work, you could wear it to work out, and wear out at night,” Wahlberg tells Rolling Stone . “We wanted to create something that was a great value proposition to the every guy and gal who’s out there … [Read more...] about Mark Wahlberg Talks Making Clothing (and Taking it Off in Front of Kevin Hart)

Nikki (Ashton Kutcher) has found the key to survival in glamorous Los Angeles: He picks up older, affluent women and shacks up with them, romancing them as they support him. His latest conquest is Samantha (Anne Heche), a lawyer afraid of aging and is willing to go along with his scheme. But when he meets a waitress, Heather (Margarita Levieva), who knows his game and -- more importantly -- plays it even better than he does, Nikki is smitten. But can they find real love?
