Bollywood star SHILPA SHETTY has won British reality show CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER after claiming a staggering 63 per cent of the public vote. JERMAINE JACKSON came second, former STEPS singer IAN 'H' WATKINS third and A-TEAM star DIRK BENEDICT fourth. Shetty used her post-eviction interview to defend fellow housemates against accusations they racially abused her. Referring to JADE GOODY, she said, "People make mistakes and we're all human beings, we're all fallible. She is a little aggressive. She may be hot-tempered... but she's not a racist."
