Mickey Rourke, a star of the 1980s, appeared unrecognizable in a recent Instagram post just days before his debut on the reality show “Celebrity Big Brother”.
On Monday, April 7, Mickey Rourke, a prominent name from the 1980s, is set to appear on the UK edition of “Celebrity Big Brother”. The actor shocked fans with an unrecognizable look in a photo shared on Instagram.
The 72-year-old star was seen over the weekend alongside friends, just days before the show’s premiere. “In London at the moment with Liam kid Vaughan and his brother Ryan Vaughan. Liverpool strong,” he wrote in the caption.
Throughout his career, Rourke — who was also a professional boxer — had to undergo multiple plastic surgeries to reconstruct his face, which was damaged during his fights.
Balancing life between the boxing ring and acting cost him major roles — he turned down opportunities in acclaimed films like “Rain Man” and “Platoon”.
“I have a love-hate relationship with acting. But now I’m enjoying it because I can give it my all. I’m confident,” he told Fox News.
Rourke also faced financial struggles due to his decisions in Hollywood. His instability even led him into $60,000 of debt in therapy expenses.
The 1980s star is reportedly earning a six-figure fee to participate in “Celebrity Big Brother”, which airs from April 7 to April 25.
