Bartender Mark Wahlberg The Pendry Hotel

MARK WAHLBERG THE BARTENDER: NO TIPS NECESSARY

Mark Wahlberg recently revealed that he wasn’t quite sure how long he would continue acting, but who knew he was pivoting to bartending! On October 19, Mark attended the opening of The Pendry Hotel in Newport Beach, California, and he played bartender for the who’s who of Orange County. Here’s the backstory: Mark is a longtime friend of the owner of the property so he flew in from Las Vegas and agreed to bartend at the event to surprise the guests. Here’s what you won’t read anywhere else – Mark is in talks with the owners to partner with them and open up Pendry Hotel in Las Vegas, where he lives now.

American Idol Bartender David Cook

AMERICAN IDOL DAVID COOK DOESN'T KNOW HIS WAY AROUND A COCKTAIL

It was heavily publicized that American Idol David Cook was a bartender before he won the title. Recently there was some kind of publicity event at The Rainbow on Sunset Strip and David made a special guest appearance, working the bar for a few hours. Oddly enough, when customers ordered drinks David didn’t know how to make them! He didn’t know the ingredients in a screw driver and a staffer had to tell him! In fact the staffer ended up making almost all the drinks because it was easier than telling David how to do it. Service was incredibly SLOW and everyone found it hard to believe David was ever a bartender. Maybe he worked in a beer bar.
