Controversies take Shilpa Shetty places. What with Richard Gere and his Shall We Dance moves becoming history, Jade Goody has come alive, with the British regulator Ofcom asking Goody to apologise to Shilpa again for the umpteenth time, for the racial slurs in Big Brother.

Shilpa sounds all cool about it, a trait that has kept her in good all through! She says she is so over Big Brother and if there are any apologies being offered, she will accept them.

Big Brother has been responsible for turning around Shilpa's ortunes in abig way. She says never expected to be this popular. All of a sudden, she is more than a Bollywood star. She is a Big Brother idol.
