Mickey Rourke has some strong words for a person who worked for him following his recent eviction drama … alleging a female employee set up a fundraiser in Mickey’s name for her own gain!
We caught up with Mickey out exercising in L.A. over the weekend, asking “The Wrestler” actor about the six-digit sum of money raised through GoFundMe … which he’s said he wants no part of.
Mickey says … “It was all a scam. That whole thing about the money was something that somebody who worked for me did to try and keep money for herself.”
He continues … “I would never ask strangers or fans for goddamn charity.” He repeated what he’s previously declared — “Like I said, I’d rather stick a gun up my ass and pull the trigger than ask anybody for a dollar.”
After Mickey emphatically rejected the $100K raised, a GoFundMe spox told us last week donation refunds were issued January 14, and donors will get 100 percent of their contributions back.
As for his dog Ivan, who recently had a major health scare, Mickey tells us, crisis averted!
As we reported … Mickey’s longtime dog Ivan was suffering from heart disease and needed an operation. We were told the procedure would cost at least $10K, which could have been more than Mickey could afford.
Check out the full video … Mickey tells us “it’s already paid for. He’s doing all right. He’s gonna hold up.”
Mickey’s manager, Kimberly Hines, tells TMZ … “This is simply not true. The money was meant for Mickey and since he refuses to accept help funds have been sent back to his fans & supporters. I’m busy negotiating 3 contracts for him and in constant communication with him. So obviously nothing has changed except him impulsively saying things that are not factual.”
