Shilpa Shetty has been severely abused on UK's Big Brother. Racial venom has been spewed against her. Filthy language has been flung in her face. Is shilpa a victim of rabid western racism against people from the sub-continent? Should she take the insults lying down? What you think? Reply please.

'Victim of rabid western racism'? This is a bit sensational isn't it? Surely the fact the girl's didn't like her for who she was and not where she's from; then surely the word 'pakki' [the insult used] should be taken as a derogatory insult. At a stretch it's racism but only if you would be happy calling 'dumb blond' 'blondism' or 'gayboy' 'gayist'. The media has spun your view, step back and look at what was said IN CONTEXT. They never said 'that stupid pakki, stupid indian, i hate indians etc' their gripes were with her, NOT her sub-continent.

i think she should keep her head up and ignoire jade. most of the racial comments were made behind her back. i think jade should be thrown out for being a troublemaker and a bully.danielle is also a nasty little piece of work but she also has no brains.

i just made a similar discussion. but i really don't think that the girls are bullying Shilpa or that its racism. I dont like her, and no im not a racist.. but stil, Jades right, she thinks shes above them all just cos shes a Bollywood Actress.. shes nothin special.. she even thinks shes too good for the lieks of Dirk which i found very mean, shes nothin btu scum herself and i dont think she shud get away with calling the girls racists when they arent.
