JoJo Siwa Says She Has ‘Sympathy’ for Mickey Rourke After His ‘Homophobic’ Comments

Transcript

00:00I think I learned very, very quickly that with Mickey, he's not a good man, right? He's not a

00:06great man, but he, and I was saying this on Vile, I can say two things at the same time,

00:13two truths can exist. I can say Mickey's not a good man, and I can say I have sympathy for Mickey.

00:20And I think one thing that Mickey has not gotten in a very long time in his life is sympathy,

00:24or a conversation about something rather than a celebrity story, a movie he was in.

00:31What's your life like now? What's a story about your childhood? What sport did you play? What

00:35position did you play? He's never had those conversations. And I think that's sad. And

00:39so I can have sympathy towards that while also saying like, you need to fix it. You know what

00:43I mean? Yeah, because I thought it was very interesting. You were able to maintain this

00:48sort of calm instead of expressing anger or projecting hate back to him. Was that hard

00:54to do? It wasn't because I knew, I think also being day two in the house, you know, you're

01:02naturally, and like, this is where I accredit everybody. And I'm sure we'll get into that

01:08a bit. But like, nobody wanted to say anything. Nobody wanted to act up. I even remember being

01:13like, because I did, I did cry quite a bit in the diary room. And I remember being in there

01:17being like, it's day two, wrap it up with the tears. Like you don't get to cry yet. You know

01:20what I mean? So I think if we would have been deeper in, it would have been a different

01:24experience. I think I definitely would have handled it the same way because I think I've

01:28just learned you're going to get nowhere by yelling at somebody. You're going to get

01:32nowhere. And also no one wants to be yelled at. You know what I mean? It's, you've got

01:36to get nowhere. I think patience, I think calmness, and I think you just have to give people a second.

01:41And I think even if somebody's so wrong, you have to validate the wrongness for them to be

01:47able to listen to you.
