Transcript

00:00A clash of generations here, and certainly of just ideals between, I never thought I'd put

00:08these two people in the same sentence, Jojo Siwa and Mickey Rourke. Really? But I'm sure that's

00:13what the producers of Celebrity Big Brother UK wanted, and they got it, but very early on day

00:20one, it has already turned into a disaster, certainly from Jojo's side of things, because

00:27Mickey Rourke was, by the way, a disaster you could see coming. Yeah, well, like I said, I think the

00:33producers probably suspected this, but they've had to step in now, so here's what happened, they have

00:38not released the footage yet, because it's actually going to be airing tonight in the UK, but what all

00:44the reports say, Mickey Rourke looked at Jojo Siwa, who came out a few years ago, right, and he said,

00:51are you into boys or girls, and she said, my partner is non-binary, and he said, well, if I'm

00:57here more than four days, you won't be gay too long. That was the start, and then he used, said he

01:05wanted a cigarette, but he used a British term, which is also a homophobic slur. Right, and Jojo and

01:16others in the house thought that he was talking to her, he said, no, I'm not talking to you, it just

01:21kept going back and forth, and so producers actually stepped in. And she's not British. And she's not

01:28British, so she certainly didn't take it that way, but this is, the producers already had to step in

01:33and give Mickey Rourke a stern warning. Mickey, Big Brother thinks your language was offensive

01:39and unacceptable. You're right. I can understand that. As a result, Big Brother is giving you a

01:47formal warning. Right. I apologize. I don't have dishonorable intentions. I'm just talking smack,

01:56you know? Boy, did I get chewed out. Did you? Yeah. You got in trouble? Oh, yeah, big time.

02:04Okay. Yeah. I guess it's not what you say, it's how it lands. Yeah. I don't know. I didn't say I

02:11don't mean this. I understand it. You might have thought it would be uninsulting, but it's the way

02:16it's perceived on other people, so. I was, Jojo was very upset earlier, bless her, but. Oh, you were?

02:21Sorry. Obviously, he said it. They warned him, and they gave him a very stern warning. Essentially,

02:25hey, look, you're on very thin ice now, Mickey, and if you do this again, they're gonna, they're gonna

02:30boot you out of the house, bottom line, and not the other contestants. Like, you're gonna be kicked off

02:33of the show. We'll see if he can behave himself, but he is okay for now, but I would. By the way,

02:39call me, call me a cynic, but. But. The producers are getting exactly what they want. Well, not only

02:46what they want, what are they using to promo the show tonight? They're using this. Yeah. They're like,

02:54Mickey, that's terrible. Keep going. Keep going. I mean, that's what I mean. I'm sorry for being.

02:59I don't know how the vote turns out, but Mickey Rourke, before going in to vote, did say,

03:04I'm gonna go vote the lesbian out real quick. So, I, you know. It seems like Mickey would be the guy

03:12that the others would vote out, but I'm sure the producers are like, oh my God. I'm sorry.

03:17Hey, it's Brandon. I'm from Toronto. And in regards to Mickey Rourke, I feel like he's just doing it to

03:22himself at this point. Like, the comments were so unnecessary. And then he's commenting saying,

03:27oh, I'm just talking smack. When you can see on JoJo Siwa's expression that she is not having it

03:33whatsoever. And honestly, if he gets voted out, I'm not surprised.

03:39Mickey Rourke is not British either, correct?

03:43No. And by the way.

03:44So, how is he using that?

03:46Regardless of sexual preference, the fact that he was even hitting on JoJo Siwa.

03:50No, I know. He's in his 70s and she's 20-something. Like, I...
