Mickey Rourke didn’t win an Oscar on Sunday night, but that’s not stopping him from getting an “Oscar” all to himself.

Mickey recently lost his dog, Loki, but he says he’s getting a new Chihuahua this week, and to honor the occasion, he’s naming it Oscar. How cute.

A friend of Mickey’s says, “Mickey has other dogs but he misses Loki terribly. He doesn’t want to wait long either – he wants to get his new pooch this week.”

Mickey won an Independent Spirit Award and he dedicated his win to Loki, saying, “This is for you, baby!”

The friend adds, “The new dog won’t replace Loki but by naming it Oscar, Mickey says he’ll make his comeback year even more special.”

Let’s hope that’s enough luck to bring him an actual Oscar at next year’s ceremony. I like Mickey, so I hope he does well. Sure his face is looking a little beat down, but he’s still a good actor.
