Mickey Rourke shows off missing teeth after being evicted from LA home
Mickey Rourke showed off his missing teeth as he stepped out in Los Angeles earlier this week.
The former pro boxer looked less than put together with stains under his mouth and on his clothes, while walking his three small dogs, per photos obtained by Page Six.
Rourke wore a gray zip-up hoodie, which he pulled over his head to attempt to stay incognito.
The 73-year-old also wore a pair of ripped light blue jeans, white sneakers and aviator sunglasses.
Rourke made headlines earlier this year when he was evicted from his LA home by his landlord, Eric T. Goldie.
In a statement to Page Six, Rourke claimed he withheld nearly $60,000 in rent because of the “unacceptable living conditions” at the property, including “ongoing rodent issues” and “bathroom and plumbing” problems.
The “Celebrity Big Brother UK” alum said stopping his rent payments “was not a decision [he] made lightly.”
Goldie’s attorney, Ricardo Villalobos, told Page Six in a statement that his client “waited nearly a year for unpaid rent and made multiple efforts to resolve the matter privately” before he decided to kick Rourke out of the home.
The lawyer added that Goldie “is looking to move on and wishes Mr. Rourke the best going forward.”
Back in December, a court filing requested that Rourke be ordered to vacate the home in three days or pay Goldie $59,100 in back rent.
Rourke was subsequently spotted removing his dog and a bag of belongings from the house in January.
Page Six learned at the time that Rourke was lodging in a luxury hotel in West Hollywood, where room rates start at $550 per night.
Rourke’s friend and member of his management team, Liya-Joelle Jones, launched a GoFundMe to attempt to help Rourke afford the home, but the “Sin City” star denied involvement with the campaign, which raised $100,000.
In a January Instagram video, Rourke said he was “confused” and “frustrated” by the GoFundMe and insisted he didn’t ask for “f–king charity.”
“I’d rather stick a gun up my ass and pull the trigger … My life is very simple, I wouldn’t go to outside sources like that,” he stated.
When news of Rourke’s possible eviction surfaced, a source told the Daily Mail that Rourke is allegedly living “paycheck-to-paycheck” because “the movies he has been doing don’t pay that much for the life he is used to.”
The insider also described Rourke as “rich poor,” noting he spends his money “so fast that he is at square one right around the time that he starts making money.”
