UPDATE: |Celebrity Big Brother fans ‘can’t cope’ as JoJo Siwa pulls prank on Mickey Rourke News

The Dance Moms star fooled the Iron Man 2 actor with an elborate disguise

Celebrity Big Brother fans were left in stitches on Friday night (April 11) as JoJo Siwa pulled a prank on Mickey Rourke.

Former Oscar nominee Mickey was issued a formal warning on the ITV gameshow earlier in the week after he used ‘unacceptable language’ towards JoJo.

The incident occurred on Wednesday’s (April 9) when Mickey asked the US singer if she liked ‘girls or boys’, before telling her she ‘won’t be gay any more’ if she stays longer than four days on the show.

Mickey went on to tell reality TV star and ITV horse racing presenter Chris Hughes that he was going to ‘vote the lesbian out real quick’.

With JoJo calling his comment ‘homophobic’, Mickey later said he needed ‘a *** [a word for a cigarette)’ as he told JoJo he wasn’t ‘talking about her’.

After being warned that if another incident occurs he may be ‘removed from the Big Brother house’, Mickey apologised to JoJo for his comments.

On a night where Mickey was up for eviction against former MP Michael Fabricant and Coronation Street actor Jack P Shepherd, Mickey had a joke played on him by JoJo.

A new star power task saw the house’s power being turned off, with all of their appliances unusable. In order to get power running, the famous faces had to perform throughout the day to charge the power.

The first housemate to perform was Chesney Hawkes, who sang his hit song The One and Only to provide hot water for housemates.

Michael had to deliver a speech to power the kitchen appliances, while EastEnders actress Patsy Palmer, Donna Preston, Jack and Mickey had to act out a powerful improv performance.

The final star to perform was JoJo had to dance to generate enough power for a party later in the episode.

Delighted by the task, JoJo said: “Yes!! Alright, come on baby, I’m gonna put some of my fancy pants on.”

Dressing up for the party, JoJo wore a fake beard and baggy clothes and pretended that her new name was Billy.

“Wait guys Mickey, Mickey. Tell him it’s a new housemate. Tell him it’s a new housemate,” she said.

Drag Queen Danny Beard then introduced Mickey to JoJo in disguise, with Mickey asking how they were doing. JoJo proceeded to ask Mickey ‘what the deal’ was with the house, and Mickey saying he it was just people ‘standing around doing s***’.

Sitting down for dinner, JoJo appeared to be getting on well with Mickey, who was happy that ‘Billy’ would make him hot dogs.

Upon learning the truth, Mickey said: “I thought this dude looks a lot like JoJo. I’m going to miss this guy. I thought here’s the little dude who’s coming in to replace me tomorrow.”

Those watching at home took to X, previously known as Twitter, to have their say on the hilarious moment.
