Bollywood star, Shilpa Shetty, has revealed that she was shocked when she found out that Jade Goody is due to enter the Big brother India house.

Shetty, who was branded ‘Shilpa Poppadom’ by Jade in the UK’s Celebrity Big Brother last year, is presenting the newest Indian Big Brother series and so will most likely come face to face with Goody at some point.

Shilpa said: “When I found out Jade was going on Big Brother India I was as shocked as when I first met her. Why go through this again?

“But part of me was really happy because it is an opportunity to show how welcoming we are.

“She’s going in as someone who has had misconceptions about our country. I hope Jade learns first hand about our culture and how wonderful our people are.”
