Ex-Bodyguard Sues The Happening Star

In the News

Mark Wahlberg (currently starring in the feature film “The Happening”) has been accused of failing to pay his former bodyguard, Leonard Taylor. Taylor is suing the actor for $20,000 in back pay for four years of work. This is Taylor’s second lawsuit against Wahlberg which has been filed in a Manhattan Civil Court. In 2001 Taylor, who is 6-foot-5 and weighs 300 pounds, claimed Wahlberg assaulted him. Wahlberg eventually paid Taylor $5,000 in a court settlement. A spokesperson for Wahlberg refused to comment.
