From the Hood to Hollywood: A Soldier's Story

When Mark Wahlberg shot to stardom in 1991, his buddy Donny Carroll was right there along the way. They grew up in Dorchester, a tough inner city neighborhood in Boston, where friendships were tight. Donny worked as Mark's personal assistant since the beginning of Mark's Hollywood career. Being part of Mark's real life entourage is what inspired Donny's original idea "to do a show about the entourage." "If Mark's fans only knew some of the things they did!"This story is about how Mark Wahlberg betrayed his 'so-called' best friend Donny Carroll. This is my attempt to set the record straight so that people will know the real story behind the "Entourage."Donny, aka "Donkey" was the inspiration for Entourage's 'Turtle' character, yet he never received any credit or the recognition he deserved for his creative role in the hit series. Hollywood is not all glitz and glamour. There is a dark side that one can only learn about firsthand.
