No words to describe the pain in my heart, at this moment, in seeing my city torn apart this way. So sad. Please #pray4boston & the victims.
Mark Wahlberg was at the premiere of his latest movie Pain & Gain in New York: ‘I really didn’t even want to come tonight. I hadn’t really heard much – I spoke to my mom, and most of my family seems to be OK. It’s such a big event, there’s so many people there. It’s horrible man. It’s disgusting, man. I just – I’m very upset.
