Mickey is known for many, many things, but being a gentleman is definitely not one of them, as neither is the fact that he is an addict to plastic surgery. Well, in a more recent interview, the washed-up actor proved once again that he is no master of words when it comes to relating to the people around him.
As he was promoting his latest movie, 'Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker', the tough-ass former sex symbol allowed the reporter to ask a couple of questions that had nothing to do with the movie. Thus, the reporter asked Mickey to talk about an altercation he had with a drunken fan.
'Then he wanted me to shake his hand. I said, "You're drunk. I'm not gonna shake your hand". But he keeps pressing the issue... so the waitress tossed him out. He was really, really out of control - some big, f**king obnoxious fag', the actor bluntly says.
Because the reporter saw the man in front of him had absolutely no remorse and wasn't feeling as if he had done/said something wrong, he asks him what he understands by that term. At which, continuing his rant, Rourke nonchalantly says:
'I don't mean fag in a derogatory way - just like the guy was a jerk off. I'm not afraid of saying the word fag. I'm not gonna walk on glass because some dude's gonna be offended if I use the word fag. I've got plenty of gay friends. We toss the word around. If I want to say fag, I'm gonna f**king say it. And if someone has a problem with that, they can kiss my f**king ass!'.
Can anybody argue that the man is desperate for some attention and doesn't know how to get it?
