Default jade admits shilpa suffered racism: msn

Jade Goody has admitted Shilpa Shetty was subjected to racism

Jade Goody has admitted that fellow Celebrity Big Brother contestant Shilpa Shetty had been subjected to "bullying and racism" in the programme.

She told the News of the World her behaviour towards the Bollywood star had been the biggest mistake of her life and she said she is concerned about her family receiving abuse from the public as a result of her behaviour.

Jade, 25, said she needed psychological help and that she would only have herself to blame if it spelt the end of her career.

It came after she was evicted from the Big Brother house in a public vote after Shilpa was subjected to racial bullying.

Now a contrite Jade has given her £50,000 appearance fee to charity, together with £50,000 from the News of the World. The paper said she was being paid nothing for the interview.

Jade said of Shilpa: "She was a victim of bullying and racism, yes. I can understand why she would have said that."

She added she was now "shocked and disgusted" by her own behaviour and she had not realised before how she could be so "intimidating or bullying".

Asked about her labelling the Bollywood actress "Shilpa Poppadom", she said she did not think "poppadom" was a racist word.

She said that "things that I may not think are racist can actually be racist" but it was her own fault for being ignorant about other people's cultures.

"I hate myself right now," she added.
