Mickey Rourke has been issued a warning by Big Brother after making homophobic slurs towards JoJo Siwa in Wednesday night’s upcoming episode of Celebrity Big Brother. 

In scenes set to air the Hollywood actor, 72, is chatting with the singer, 21, who identifies as a lesbian, as he insinuates he will be able to ‘make her straight’ after spending a few days with him in the house. 

Discussing her sexuality, Mickey asks the influencer: ‘Do you like girls or boys?’ as she replies: ‘Me? Girls. My partner is non-binary.’

Insinuating he will be able to change her sexuality, Mickey then insists: ‘If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore.’

JoJo then replies: ‘I can guarantee I’ll still be gay and I’ll still be in a very happy relationship.’

Later in the garden, Mickey asks Chris if everyone has to vote one another out of the house as the Wrestler star confesses: ‘I’m going to vote the lesbian out real quick.’

Yet JoJo overhears as she hits back: ‘That’s homophobic, if that was your reasoning.’
