Not what he signed up for
Viewers of Celebrity Big Brother were taken aback when Mickey Rourke, 72, expressed surprise about the show's filming schedule after entering the house. In a conversation with fellow housemate Chesney Hawkes, Mickey revealed that he didn't realize the cameras were always rolling, assuming they weren't filming all the time.
A surprising realization
During the chat, Mickey was under the impression that the housemates had moments of privacy when they weren't being recorded. However, Chesney quickly corrected him by revealing that the show films 24/7, leaving Mickey shocked by the revelation.
Backlash and controversy
Following his entrance into the house, Mickey faced backlash from fans for his behavior towards host AJ Odudu. Fans criticized him for his "creepy" actions, which included pulling AJ towards him after complimenting her outfit. AJ had to firmly ask him to stop, with her co-host Will Best stepping in to intervene.
