Hot favourite Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty has won the grand finale of the British reality TV show Celebrity Big Brother on which she faced alleged racist bullying that sparked off an international race row. Shilpa was elected the winner last night by 63 per cent of voters ahead of runner-up singer Jermaine Jackson, brother of Michael Jackson.
The 31-year-old elegant actress won the public’s affection during an extraordinary four weeks in which she was the victim of alleged racist bullying by fellow housemates Jade Goody, Jo O’Meara and Danielle Lloyd. She was crowned the winner after finalists Jermaine Jackson, Dirk Benedict, Ian H Watkins, Danielle Lloyd and Jack Tweed were all evicted during the show’s final last night. A show spokesman said Jack Tweed had received 3.2 per cent of the votes cast, Danielle Lloyd got 3.3 per cent and Ian Watkins received 5.3 per cent. Screaming with surprise, Shilpa burst into tears as Davina McCall, the host of the show, announced the news.
