Mickey Rourke axed from Celebrity Big Brother house over inappropriate behaviour

Celebrity Big Brother star Mickey Rourke is leaving the Big Brother house, a spokesperson said

Mickey Rourke, who has caused a stir during his short time on the show, has agreed to leave the Celebrity Big Brother house following a string of offensive comments made towards the housemates, an ITV spokesperson has said.

They said: “Mickey Rourke has agreed to leave the Celebrity Big Brother House this evening following a discussion with Big Brother regarding further use of inappropriate language and instances of unacceptable behaviour.”

It comes after he was warned by Celebrity Big Brother bosses about his behaviour in the house, which saw him make homophobic and fat-shaming comments to fellow housemates JoJo Siwa and Donna Preston.

In the moments before he walked into the Big Brother house, he already shocked the crowd when fans accused him of staring down host AJ Odudu as she introduced herself to him before he started to grab onto her and touch her excessively.

Things quickly went even worse when Mickey was distracted by the live audience and attempted to give them all a high-five before making his way through the doors into the house.

The actor was taking a long time with the audience that host AJ had to push him into the house before he tried to drag her in there with him.

After the awkward altercation, fans flocked to X to share their concern for host AJ, as one wrote: “Someone get some security for AJ from Mickey Rourke because what the hell was that????” Another shared: “Mickey’s entrance is the strangest entrance I think there’s ever been on this show. Poor AJ.”

After entering the show, he made homophobic comments towards JoJo Siwa and claimed he could ‘turn her straight’. During a chat, he asked JoJo: “Where’s the smoke room? Where’s the cigarette room?,” before then asking: “Do you like girls or boys?”

“Me? Girls. My partner is non-binary,” JoJo replied, before Mickey said: “If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore.” JoJo then answered: “I can guarantee I’ll still be gay and I’ll still be in a very happy relationship.”

As he walked into the garden, Mickey asked Chris if they would get to choose who they voted out. He told the Love Island star: “I’m going to vote the lesbian out real quick.” JoJo overheard and replied: “That’s homophobic, if that was your reasoning.”

At one point while talking about having a smoke, he said: “I need a fag,” before gesturing to JoJo and saying: “I’m not talking to you.” Chris Hughes then interjected and said: “Mickey, you can’t say that.”

Big Brother gave him a stern warning at the time and said to him in the Diary Room: “Mickey before you entered the Big Brother house the rules regarding unacceptable language and behaviour were explained to you … Mickey, do you understand how this language could be offensive to your Housemates or the viewing public?

“Yeah I think so. If I was saying it in a nasty kind of way or if I truly meant it,” Mickey then replied, with Big Brother saying back: “Mickey, Big Brother thinks your language was offensive and unacceptable …

“As a result, Big Brother is giving you a formal warning. Further language or behaviour of this nature could lead to you being removed from the Big Brother house. Mickey, do you understand?”

Mickey then answered: “Yes I do. It’s some serious stuff …. I apologise. I don’t have dishonourable intentions – I’m just talking smack you know. I wasn’t taking it all so serious. I didn’t mean in it any bad intentions and if I did, sorry.”

He made fat-shaming comments towards Donna PrestonDuring a conversation with Donna Preston, Mickey told her she’d “probably be better off running around the block for ten minutes” when he asked her if she saw any results from her LED face mask.

In a recent episode, Patsy Palmer was left in tears when Mickey made comments about her cooking.

The EastEnders star went to the diary room to become upset after Mickey said that she was a terrible cook, with Patsy telling Big Brother: “I always want my kids to always stand up for themselves.”

“Sorry,” she said, breaking down in tears. “I tried to talk that one out but it didn’t really work. I feel like I let myself down there and I don’t want my reactions to be like that.

“I always want my kids to always stand up for themselves. Maybe it was just a joke – maybe I need to look at it like that. I need to try to rise above it. It doesn’t mean I have to like him.”

Mickey was unaware that he had upset Patsy, and he didn’t let the issue drop – later telling Big Brother that they need to invest in providing better food for the contestants. “I think in future, you guys should hire really good chefs to feed the people,” he said.
