Mark Wahlberg finds acting too "regimented".
The 'Boogie Nights' actor - who started his showbiz career as a hellraising rapper - says since finding Hollywood stardom he misses the freedom he enjoyed during his music career.
He told Scotland's Daily Record newspaper: "I miss being able to wake up when I want and go on stage when I want and pull down my pants when I want. Making movies is a highly regimented responsibility - never believe any of the stories about actors who are irresponsible. Just to get a film made requires a real discipline."
Mark - who stars in Martin Scorsese's new film 'The Departed' with Jack Nicholson - also claims he would have ended up living a life of crime if he hadn't found fame.
He said: "My brother went to jail, I went to jail. Three of my brothers went to jail. My sister went to jail about 50 times.
"I didn't want to spend the rest of my life locked up. I might have been acting like an animal but I didn't want to be a caged one."
