Mark Wahlberg is ready to pass the torch to Taylor Lautner.

"I'm sitting at a table with a gentleman who is better looking than you and is in better shape than me," the '90s underwear model told Leonardo DiCaprio Thursday at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's luncheon in Beverly Hills. "So, we're both out of a job, dude. Taylor Lautner! We're screwed."

As the crowd -- which included Lea Michele and Gerard Butler -- roared with laughter, Wahlberg, 40, added: "It's over, dude. Titanic and Boogie Nights were a long time ago. I accept it. I had a good run and on to the next."

After the toast, Lautner admitted he was startled (but flattered) by the unexpected shout-out.

"I don't even know the word to describe being here," the 19-year-old Abduction star told E! News. "It's so odd. It's such an honor. I'm up on the stage and talking in front of people like that? The people that I looked up to my entire life? Hearing words like that from Mark and everybody it's just really surreal."

Its tongue and cheek, take it for what it is. When your 'older' you shake your head and wonder where has time gone and why so crule, lol There is room for all the boyz. We love men, but can admire the boy for rocking the hot body :)

Sorry, Mark, you're very, very wrong. Taylor Lautner will never be more attractive than Mark or Leo. He's just a kid, for christ's sake. I want a man, not a boy.

I'll take Wahlberg over the other two any day. Lautner's a cute kid, but his noseis too fat.

Love Leo and Mark! they are still great looking. Maybe their idolizing tween glory days are behind them but they are sexy as can be. I don't like 19 year old boys, lol.

Marky Mark should speak for himself...Leo is getting BETTER with age and that's the God's honest truth! and i'm sure millions of women would agree with me!!

Marky Mark should speak for himself....Leo is getting MORE handsome and better with age...God's honest truth....and i'm sure MILLIONS of women will agree with me!!

Oh I think not. The big difference is that Leo & Mark can ACT. Taylor is awful and not good looking, either.
