Controversial comments spark outrage
Mickey Rourke stirred up trouble on the latest episode of Celebrity Big Brother, with shocking scenes showing the actor being reprimanded after making homophobic comments towards fellow housemate JoJo Siwa.
Homophobic remarks towards JoJo Siwa
The 72-year-old actor asked JoJo Siwa about her sexual orientation, to which she responded that she likes girls and her partner is non-binary. Rourke then made offensive remarks suggesting that if he stayed longer in the house, she wouldn't be gay anymore and expressed his intention to vote a lesbian out quickly.
Formal warning from Big Brother
After being called to the Diary Room, Mickey Rourke was given a formal warning by Big Brother for his offensive and unacceptable language towards JoJo Siwa. This came after fans had already expressed concern over his behavior towards host AJ Odudu during a previous episode.
