Jessica Simpson recently revealed that she fulfilled a “teenage fantasy” by hooking up with a “massive movie star” in a new “short and true story”.

Since we here at Page Six can’t resist a juicy celebrity blind item — and Simpson penned a doozy — we’re taking our best guess.

The top contender based on clues given in Simpson’s tale, Movie Star: They Always Say They’re Single, is Mark Wahlberg.

According to Simpson, now 42, she first met the mystery man at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards when she was on a break from her future ex-husband, Nick Lachey.

“He was undressing me with his eyes,” the singer told readers of the mystery man.

Simpson noted that the mystery dude was wearing jeans and a T-shirt. Wahlberg — who attended the show that year — wore jeans and a T-shirt.

Actors Will Smith, Will Ferrell, Andy Dick (who we immediately ruled out — sorry Andy!), Christopher Walken, Jamie Foxx and Johnny Knoxville (with whom Simpson has already publicly said she had an emotional affair) were also at the show.

Simpson said in the story that the anonymous actor knew her trainer. Ripped Wahlberg, now 51, is known for his workouts.

In addition, the Ted star was already famous in 2001, and could’ve been a childhood crush of Simpson. Wahlberg – once known as Marky Mark who rapped with his Funky Bunch — famously posed for a shirtless Calvin Klein ad in 1992 with Kate Moss.

In 1996, he played the lead opposite Reese Witherspoon in the hit thriller Fear.

Simpson wrote that she wound up meeting with the “massive movie star” again in 2006 at the Beverly Hills Hotel while he got ready for another big awards show.

“He texted me throughout the awards show,” she said, explaining it was how she learned he wasn’t single.

“Shortly after, I saw a photo of Movie Star on a red carpet with her. I was never ever in a million years going to be the other woman.”

Wahlberg, who was in Martin Scorsese’s The Departed that year, attended the Golden Globes with his now-wife, Rhea Durham, who was pregnant at the time.

A baby is not mentioned in Simpson’s retelling.

Wahlberg — who married Durham in 2009 — also appeared on the Emmys carpet with Durham the following year when she was not pregnant.

Simpson said the unnamed A-lister convinced her his relationship was over, so she continued to see him, even visiting him on a movie set with a director “known to even the most casual movie fan”.

While the dates are slightly off, Wahlberg started filming M. Night Shyamalan’s The Happening in August 2007 in Philadelphia, a close enough to drive from NYC. Simpson says she was picked up by a pal to go to the set.

The shoe designer also wrote that the mystery actor told her that he spoke with his spiritual adviser about her.

Wahlberg has been very vocal about his relationship with a Boston priest named Father Flavin, whom he credits for keeping him away from the dark side of fame.

Simpson also said she ended things when she started to feel “like a call girl” who was only there “to have sex” with the unnamed celeb.

“I didn’t care if he was my teenage fantasy come to life, this was not a choice that same girl, my younger self, would be proud of,” she penned.

Simpson told People of the mystery man: “I will tell you this … he is still a movie star!”

Among his many other projects, Wahlberg — who married Dunham in 2009 — is reportedly starring in the upcoming The Six Billion Dollar Man.

Simpson and former NFL player Eric Johnson got married in July 2014 and welcomed daughters Maxwell and Birdie in 2012 and 2019, respectively, and son Ace in 2013.

Wahlberg and Durham share four kids: Ella, 19, Michael, 16, Brendan, 14, and Grace, 13.

Reps for Simpson and Wahlberg did not respond to a request for comment.
