Viewers of ITV's Celebrity Big Brother have expressed that they want Mickey Rourke to be ejected from the house following "homophobic" comments.

The incident occurred when the 72-year-old actor asked singer JoJo Siwa if she "likes girls or boys" during the Wednesday, April 9 episode.

Siwa replied by telling him she likes girls and added that her partner is non-binary.

Oscar-nominated US star Rourke responds: “If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay any more.”
