Danielle Lloyd
 As a participant in the 2007 series of Celebrity Big Brother,
Lloyd, along with others, was accused of using bullying tactics
and making racist comments directed against the Indian actress
Shilpa Shetty. According to reports from the tabloid News of the
World, Sheringham has decided to end his relationship with Lloyd
as a result of her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother. Lloyd
garnered significant negative publicity when thousands of
complaints were filed with Ofcom after she, Jade Goody and Jo
O'Meara, dubbed "The Witches (or Bitches) of Elstree" were
accused of bullying and making racist remarks towards their
fellow house mate, Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty.
Celebrity Big
Brother
Celebrity Big Brother 2007 was the fifth series of the United
Kingdom reality television series Celebrity Big Brother, a spin-off
of Big Brother. The series was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK
(also on S4C in Wales), and involved a number of celebrities
referred to as 'housemates', who live in the Big Brother House
with no contact with the outside world. In recent series, the
show's producers have offered celebrities money to appear on
Celebrity Big Brother.
Celebrity Big Brother 2007 started on 3 January 2007, and ran
for 26 days. The launch show peaked at 8.2 million viewers,
making it the second most-watched launch in Big Brother history.
It was the first Celebrity Big Brother series to be shown in the
16:9 widescreen format and the final Celebrity series to be held
in the Elstree compound with the regular series later in the
year being the final one overall.
