Mickey Rourke is going after JoJo Siwa on Celebrity Big Brother UK.
The 72-year-old actor and former boxer questioned the 21-year-old “Karma” singer about her sexuality on Wednesday’s episode (April 9), via Page Six.
“Do you like girls or boys?” he asked.
“Me? Girls. My partner is non-binary,” she said, referring to Kath Ebbs.

“If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore,” he said.
“I can guarantee I’ll still be gay and I’ll still be in a very happy relationship,” JoJo said back.
Elsewhere, he told castmate Chris Hughes he was “going to vote the lesbian out real quick.”
“That’s homophobic, if that was your reasoning,” JoJo, who overheard the comment, shot back.
Chris interjected, telling Mickey that he “can’t do that.”
“I need a f-g,” Mickey said before telling JoJo, “I’m not talking to you.”
Chris reminded Mickey that he could not use that language, to which he said: “I know. I was talking about a cigarette.”
Due to his remarks, Mickey was called to the Diary Room and given a stern warning.
“Mickey, before you entered the Big Brother house, the rules regarding unacceptable language and behavior were explained to you,” he was told.
He was then read back his exchange, and asked if it could be viewed as offensive.
“Yeah, I think so — if I was saying it in a nasty kind of way or if I truly meant it,” he replied.
He was told he would be “removed” if he exhibited “further language or behavior of this nature.”
Mickey ultimately apologized, saying he did not “have dishonorable intentions” and was “just talking smack.”
“I wasn’t taking it all so serious. I didn’t mean in it any bad intentions, and if I did, sorry,” he added.
