It's been just one day since the latest season of Celebrity Big Brother hit our screens on Monday (7 April) and there's already a major scandal over one of the contestant's seriously 'creepy' behaviour.
ITV viewers were treated to the full line-up for this year's series of the beloved reality TV programme which included none other than 72-year-old Hollywood A-lister Mickey Rourke.
However, since watching last night's debut episode of this year's season, fans at home have hit out over the Sin City actor's 'inappropriate behaviour' towards CBB host, AJ Odudu.
Take a look at the 'creepy' display here:

Upon his entry into the infamous Big Brother house, Rourke walked on stage where he was greeted by AJ and the show's co-presenter, Will Best.
He then spun AJ around while grabbing and pulling her towards him before telling her she had a 'nice outfit' before looking her up and down.
The seriously awkward moment provoked AJ to tell Rourke 'stop looking at me' before ushering him towards the door while Rourke told her: "I want to stay with you!"
After watching the TV clip, many viewers at home rushed to social media.
One X user penned: "Mickey Rourke is giving me creepy vibes already."
"Odds on Mickey Rourke being out of the house within a day?? Creepy f**ker," slammed a second, while a third hit out: "That was seriously creepy the way Mickey Rourke was with AJ Odudu."
A fourth hit out: "@ITV may regret putting Mickey Rourke in that house with those young girls. It could be a reality TV experiment gone too far. He made my skin crawl."
"The way Mickey Rourke was looking AJ up and down was very creepy!" declared a fifth, and another X user echoed: "Not the biggest fan of AJ and Will's presenting sometimes, but they handled him well!
"And Will holding her hand and giving her a hug after showed what a gent he is Mickey Rourke is just a creep."
And a final X user outlined: "Everyone's joking about Mickey Rourke and I get why, but I want to be serious for a second.
"No female TV presenter should be made to feel like AJ just did. He shouldn't have been allowed on this show if he can't control himself around women. I hated that ngl."
Tyla has reached out to both ITV and Mickey Rourke's representatives for comment.
Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight from 9pm on ITV, ITVX, STV and STV Player. It will be followed by companion show Late & Live on ITV2 and ITVX from 10pm.
