Mickey Rourke may have gotten booted off "Celebrity Big Brother" ...  but he's not going down without a fight, as he's exploring legal action against the show for allegedly withholding money he feels entitled to, TMZ has learned.

Kimberly Hines, Rourke's rep, tells TMZ ... Mickey's team is currently speaking with lawyers in the UK and are weighing a lawsuit against ITV, the company that produces the show.

Hines says Rourke is being "unjustly" denied a major payday ... claiming 'CBB' producers deliberately removed him this past Saturday, just one day before he would have become contractually eligible to receive a lot more money.

"The White Lotus" star Aimee Lou Wood says she's "had apologies from 'SNL'" for a skit making fun of her teeth -- but we've learned the sketch comedy show has done no such thing, although the staff was very fond of her on set.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... "Saturday Night Live" did not reach out to Aimee with a formal apology.

We're told Aimee may have spoken to someone she knows on the show and they may have apologized, but no such apology came down from 'SNL' in any official or formal capacity.

Cuban-American actor William Levy is feeling the heat in Miami, but it's not the weather he's dealing with ... he was arrested Monday night for disorderly intoxication in a public place causing disturbance and trespassing.

Levy was booked in Broward County Jail. WPLG-TV reports he appeared in court Tuesday afternoon, where a judge granted him a $500 bond.

Levy was arrested in Weston, in the Miami metro area. According to the Broward County Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to a report of a disturbance at Baires Grill on Monday night at about 10:10. The arresting deputy reports Levy was allegedly "highly intoxicated and causing a disturbance inside the restaurant." In the presence of the deputy, the manager told William not to return to the business ... and WL then allegedly ignored multiple verbal commands by the deputy to leave the property. He was promptly arrested and booked.

"The White Lotus" star Aimee Lou Wood looks like she's still bothered by a 'SNL' skit making fun of her teeth ... because she was an emotional wreck in public.

Ya gotta see these photos and video of Aimee ... she was practically in tears Monday in London, the day after ripping the 'SNL' skit as "mean and unfunny."

Aimee's 'White Lotus' character is relentlessly mocked on the 'SNL' parody ... there are massive fake teeth and a bad British accent ... and it looks like she's still upset with her portrayal.

Before this lil' cutie from Kentucky was going from table-to-table asking people for their drink orders, she was just a beauty pageant queen, cheering from the sidelines and growing up on the farm!

Before she popped up on TV, she won Miss Teen Clark County Fair back in 2004 AND 2008. She once took Kentucky with her former partner, but now she's the queen of the valley and is gearing up for a dramatic season. Her podcast is called 'When Reality Hits.'

Need another hint? Her season 2 reality show premieres tonight ... "Rot in hell!"

The reality TV star and the former college football player have called it quits after nearly 2 years of dating ... TMZ has confirmed.

"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" alum Taylor Armstrong is recalling the physical abuse she says she suffered at the hands of her late husband ... claiming he once fractured her face with his fist.

Taylor goes into detail about the alleged abuse in the newest episode of Investigation Discovery's new docuseries, "Hollywood Demons" ... claiming Russell Armstrong punched her on her birthday and broke her eye socket.

In a clip from the episode, obtained by TMZ, Taylor claims Russell punched her after accusing her of cheating on him with Chippendales dancers in Las Vegas.

American actor Daniel Booko was 27 years old when he played Cort -- the clumsy and good-looking intern for iCarly -- on Nickelodeon's sitcom "iCarly" back in 2011.

Daniel Booko was part of an ensemble cast including Miranda Cosgrove as the kind teenager who loves her friends, family and her web show, Carly, Jennette McCurdy as Carly's sarcastic bestie, Sam, who's a tad lazy and Nathan Kress as the show's camera operator and straight-A student, Freddie.

Years later, Daniel married Miss USA 2014, Nia Sanchez, and the two are on Bravo's reality show "The Valley."

Aimee Lou Wood gets satire ... but, a recent joke about her on "Saturday Night Live" clearly stung -- 'cause she called the parody of her straight-up mean.

The actress weighed in on the long-running comedy show's parody of "The White Lotus," called "The White POTUS" ... a political skewering of the popular HBO show, the third season of which just aired.

ICYMI ... different political figures are depicted -- including Jon Hamm playing Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., shown to be dating a character based on Wood.

Jean Marsh -- a longtime British star who appeared in several hit '80s movies -- has passed away ... TMZ has confirmed.

Lesley Duff -- Marsh's longtime agent -- tells us Jean did indeed pass away Sunday while also sharing a statement from Michael Lindsay-Hogg -- a pioneer in the music video industry and pal of Marsh's -- revealing she passed at her home in London Sunday due to complications of dementia.

Lindsay-Hogg says he and Marsh were close for 60 years, speaking almost daily over the last 40 ... adding she was a wise, funny, pretty, kind person -- talented as both an actress and writer -- who was loved by everyone who met her.

Marsh began her screen career in the late 1940s ... appearing in a series of uncredited roles in smaller shows before grabbing bit parts on "The Twilight Zone" and "I Spy" as well as a small role in the Elizabeth Taylor-led flick "Cleopatra."

Mickey Rourke faced off with another housemate on "Celebrity Big Brother" before his early exit ... and, while the confrontation didn't come to blows, it looks like it got very close.

The veteran actor -- who we already knew had been booted from 'CBB' for continually using abusive language and behaving inappropriately toward his fellow housemates -- appeared in the episode that aired Sunday, featuring a pirate-themed quest with his fellow contestants.

During a challenge where the group was forced to reveal hard truths about one another in order to open treasure chests ... Chris Hughes -- a reality television star and pro soccer player -- stared down Mickey, who didn't appreciate the look one bit.

Lizzo seems to be feeling "Good as Hell" about her 'SNL' performance Saturday night ... which included a jab at President Donald Trump's polarizing tariff plans.

The singer -- who advocated for Kamala Harris' run for the White House -- performed a medley of "Love in Real Life" and "Still Bad" on the sketch comedy series while proudly sporting a black crop top with red lettering reading "TARIFFIED."

There's no doubt Lizzo's shirt references Trump's tariffs, which include a newly announced 145% rate on Chinese imports that stunned -- and terrified -- many Americans.

"Saturday Night Live" spoofed the "White Lotus" after an absolutely shocking season finale -- but with a Donald Trump "White Potus" twist as his unclear tariff rollout even has some of his supporters skeptical.

The pre-taped sketch on last night's 'SNL' starts off with Chloe Fineman portraying Melania Trump, but with a southern accent that mirrors Parker Posey's "White Lotus" character, Victoria Ratliff.

The sketch has Melania trying to get her husband's attention, who seems to be off in another world as she gets ready for dinner. James Austin Johnson's Trump takes the spot of Jason Isaacs’ Timothy Ratliff -- whose family is plagued with financial woes throughout  "White Lotus" Season 3.

WWE legend Bret Hart is reflecting on his iconic WrestleMania 13 showdown with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin ahead of its Hall of Fame induction ... telling TMZ Sports it was by far "the best match I ever had."

Hart -- who is also in the Hall as an individual and as a member of the Hart Foundation -- got poetic about the submission match ... comparing it to listening to The Beatles' "Hey Jude," as it's perfect each and every time he revisits it.

The match was bloody and tough as could be ... with Hart putting Austin in Sharpshooter, but his opponent refused to tap and was rendered unconscious.
