CELEBRITY Big Brother’s first evicted housemate Michael Fabricant has suggested ITV “cut” more of Mickey Rourke’s “hmphbic slurs.”
The former Conservative MP, who lost his seat in the 2024 General Election, has accused the American of blurting out further disgusting comments towards JoJo Siwa, 21, prior to the actor’s eviction by Celebrity Big Brother bosses.

Michael, 74, previously insisted Mickey, 72, wanted to leave the Celebrity Big Brother compound “on day one.”
And on Monday’s This Morning, he said The Wrestler star was convinced he would be given the boot days before he actually was.
Now the reason for Michael’s words appear to have come to light as he took to X to engage with his fans.
One Celebrity Big Brother viewer complained about the language used to which Michael, who was the first of the CBB 2025 line-up to be evicted on Friday, wrote: “Yeah, but that wasn’t said in isolation.”
Mickey’s departure – and his subsequent flight off to LA – followed the Bafta winner’s formal warning over a h0mophobic slur during Wednesday’s episode.
He left co-star JoJo Siwa in tears after he insinuated he would be able to change the gay singer’s s3xuality.

The exchange began with Mickey asking JoJo: “Where’s the smoke room? Where’s the cigarette room?”
He then pressed JoJo and asked: “Do you like girls or boys?”
JoJo replied: “Me? Girls. My partner is non-binary.”
Mickey then made a suggestive comment, saying to the young starlet: “If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore.”
Celebrity Big Brother 2025 line-up
Celebrity Big Brother is back for a brand new series, with a whole host of stars set to live it up in the famous compound.

Then, in the garden, Mickey could be seen chatting to Love Island star Chris Hughes.
“I’m going to vote the lesbian out real quick,” he adds brazenly, breaking the rules about nominations.
Mickey then said: “I need a fag,” while he gestured to JoJo and added: “I’m not talking to you.”
Chris told the actor: “Mickey, you can’t say that.”
“I know. I was talking about a cigarette,” Mickey replied.
JoJo was left in tears after Mickey’s comments, with Chris quick to comfort her.
A spokesman for the reality show the spoke out on Mickey being axed after numerous rule breaks and said: “Mickey Rourke has agreed to leave the Celebrity Big Brother House this evening following a discussion with Big Brother regarding further use of inappropriate language and instances of unacceptable behaviour.”
The Oscar-nominated star displayed “threatening and aggressive” behaviour towards his housemate Chris during a disagreement in a Pirate-themed task.
