LONDON: Police are investigating further claims of racism on “Celebrity Big Brother” after the Sun newspaper said a racist song was sung on the programme about Indian contestant Shilpa Shetty.

The words were written down by a senior employee at Big Brother makers Endemol on the back of a production running order for Channel 4 and anonymously handed to the police, the newspaper said.

The claims have surfaced after a sympathetic TV audience voted Bollywood actress Shilpa the winner of the reality show last weekend, following earlier complaints that other contestants had used bullying and racist behaviour against her.
