Hollywood action star Mickey Rourke took matters into his own hands and eliminated himself on The Masked Singer.

The actor, 68, stunned the show’s judges when ripping off his furry gremlin costume after complaining it was too hot following his performance of Ben E King’s 1961 hit Stand By Me.

Host Nick Cannon said it was a first for The Masked Singer and it meant the other contestants survived another week before any voting had taken place.
