80s action star Mickey Rourke is being slammed by Celebrity Big Brother fans after his awkward entrance interview. The 72-year-old was seen chatting with hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best before walking into the house ITV on Monday (April 7), but was quickly facing a wave of backlash after seemingly staring host AJ up and down. The host, wearing a skin tight brown bodysuit adorned with glitter and feathers, appeared flustered by the attention, telling him: “stop looking at me and get in the house” Fans labelled his behavious "digusting", sharing: "This was disgusting.
Get him out." Another predicted: "Mickey Rourke will be chucked out the house within 24 hours." Best even joked he was the first person that had to be “kicked into” the house, after he was seen high fiving fans ont he way and delaying his entrance.
Uproar continued as fans were left more uncomfortable by the situation. One said: "I feel bad for AJ with the way Mickey Rourke kept pulling out her." Someone else commented: "Is Mickey Rourke OK?" Another expressed their concern, writing: "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.
" Over on spin-off show Late and Live, AJ addressed the moment when guest Alan Carr called out Mickey's actions. She declared: "You can't afford these feathers Mickey. No!" Before entering the house, Mickey said: "I have no expectations.
I’ve never seen it. I'm just going to go in, do my thing, and we'll see." The actor was the final star to sign up for the hotly-anticipated reality TV show, which will air for just over two weeks until April 25.
Mickey looked worlds away from his heyday in the Instagram snap as he caught up with some pals on the weekend. He wrote: 'In London at the moment with Liam kid Vaughan and his brother Ryan Vaughan. LIVERPOOL strong' Mickey - who has an estimated net worth of £3.
8million ($5million) - is being paid a huge six-figure sum to appear on the ITV show alongside the likes of JoJo Siwa, Chesney Hawkes and Patsy Palmer. However, there are fears that the acting icon could decide to leave the Big Brother house early, which has been described as a "worse-case scenario" for broadcasters. Mickey joined the house alongside Love Island's Chris Hughes, Olympian Daley Thompson, Coronation Street legend Jack P Shepherd, politician Sir Michael Fabricant and RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner Danny Beard, among others.
Mickey's Hollywood career reached its peak in 1986 when he won the leading male role in the erotic drama 9 1/2 Weeks opposite Kim Basinger. Rising to huge acclaim, Mickey became a sought-after name in Hollywood with huge roles in Rumble Fish, Angel Heart, Francesco and Johnny Handsome in the 1980s..
