Give Mark Wahlberg credit for a swift, simple and seemingly sincere apology after a boast that he would have fended off 9/11 hijackers and prevented a plane from crashing. For reasons unknown, he said this to Men’s Journal . The quote: “If I was on the [hijacked] plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘Okay, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry.'” This came up because Mark was initially booked on one of the fights that was hijacked, only to change it serendipitously. He mused about what might’ve been. It did not go over well. Wahlberg’s reps promptly issued a statement from the 40-year-old Contraband star admitting the foolishness of his statements and expressing remorse. “To speculate about such a situation is ridiculous to begin with, and to suggest I would’ve done anything differently than the passengers on that plane was irresponsible,” Wahlberg wrote. “I deeply apologize to the families of the victims.” “My answer came off as insensitive, and that was certainly not my intention.”

Just because she’s royalty doesn’t mean she’s lost her sense … fashion or common. Savvy shopper that she is, Duchess Kate Middleton took advantage of some end-of-season sales and hit London’s Chelsea neighborhood this week in search of good deals. Was her endeavor successful? What did she find? An onlooker says the royal, who just turned 30 earlier this month, shopped at the store Anonymous by Ross+Bute, trying on some new pieces from the spring and summer collection, including a pink cardigan and boots. Sshe decided on a marked-down Jewel Collar V-Neck Top, a grey, form-fitting merino lightweight sweater accented with a bejeweled necklace attached along the neckline. It was on sale for 84.50 GBP, $129 USD (from 169 GBP, $259 USD). While checking out with her only purchase, the Duchess paused and admired a clutch bag, but decided not to buy it. Her visit to the shop lasted about 20 minutes. “She was really polite, well-spoken and mentioned she would be coming back in the future,” an onlooker adds , not that anyone would be surprised by that. The last time Kate Middleton was photographed out in public was when she walked the red carpet with her husband, Prince William, at the War Horse premiere. Even her 30th birthday, which was the day after, was spent in a low-key manner, when she held an intimate dinner with family and friends in private quarters. She has also been seen walking on the beach in Wales with her new puppy!
