The Canadian bombshell has caused ratings of the Indian TV show Bigg Boss (similar to Big Brother) to shoot through the roof this week, just as the show caught the eye of the Indian government.
On Wednesday, Indian officials ordered the show to be moved to after 11 p.m. from prime time due to “objectionable” content. On Thursday, a high court reversed the decision until a Nov. 22 hearing.
The complaints don’t stem from anything Anderson has done, but from events that occurred before her arrival, including a female housemate dropping her towel, an intimate kissing scene and abusive language.
Anderson’s appearance on the reality show began Wednesday night. She will leave the program Friday. The other houseguests were unaware of her arrival.
Anderson had picked up some phrases in Hindi, the only language the house guests speak. By Thursday’s show, the actress had learned a traditional Hindi dance.
This is not Anderson’s first foray into reality television. In 2008, she was on the Australian version of Big Brother. She also had her own reality show, Pam: Girl on the Loose.
Anderson is the second westerner to appear on Bigg Boss. The first was Jane Goody — a veteran of the British version of Big Brother — who left the show after she received her fatal cancer diagnosis.
