We’re all lining up to take turns dragging Mickey Rourke this week. The Celebrity Big Brother contestant made homophobic remarks towards JoJo Siwa. Now, everyone is coming out of the woodwork to call him out. The latest person is Bella Thorne, who described an uncomfortable encounter she had with him on the set of a film.

On CBB, Mickey received a warning for his behavior aimed at JoJo. However, it’s starting to sound like he shouldn’t have been cast in the first place.
Bella and Mickey starred in a 2020 thriller called Girl. According to Bella, it stands out as the worst acting experience of her career. She said one particular scene they filmed together left her with bruises on her pelvic bone.
“This f*cking dude. GROSS,” Bella wrote over a screenshot of an article talking about Mickey’s CBB controversy.
She continued, “I had to work with this man – In a scene where I’m on my knees with my hands zip-tied around my back. He’s supposed to take a metal grinder to my knee cap and instead he used it on my genitals thru my jeans. Hitting them over and over again.”
Bella said that his actions during the scene caused her to suffer from bruising, which is far too much for a movie that no one has ever seen. With that in mind, Bella made it clear that she won’t be working with him ever again.
“Working with Mickey was one of the all time worst experiences of my life working as an actress,” she concluded.
Bella’s allegations come amid rising concern about Mickey’s behavior in the latest edition of CBB. Fortunately, JoJo used her “killer nomination” on him in the latest episode, which means his time in the house could be coming to an end very soon.
Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight (Friday) at 9 p.m. BST on ITV1, ITVX, STV, and STV Player.
