JADE GOODY
 

discuss(t).

sorry.

Her frightful ghost lives on

Jade Goody dies... and life goes on!

Jade Goody, a dental assistant turned reality-TV star whose whirlwind journey from poverty, to celebrity, to tragedy became a national soap opera. It's sad. But people die from cancer everyday. Is it really that shocking?

Yeah but you're forgetting she's the first ever woman ever to get cancer, ever

Oh yeah, well there is that...

Plus she's just so inspirational and beautiful, Kegmama, can only say good things about her, the bloody thick-as-pigshit racist cock addict

Danny Boy! I have never heard you speak in such a way. What causes the malignity of your temper?

There is nothing wrong with being a cock addict.

i thought the whole thing was kind of sad..

:mad::mad::mad:

Haha I don't even know, I'm just sick of hearing about this woman- its as if somebody important died, the way the press in the country are going on about it.

jane goodall?

Chavs have a princess of hearts too, now.

shame to see a young mother of two die of cancer. she was a totaly clueless chavster as well.

why should i care about her? i dont see a reason as to why i should give a fuck even though the media won't shut up about her

i dont care either.

I'm the town cryer, and I do.

Actually, I don't think she was a enough of a train wreck to reach this side of the Atlantic.

Never heard of her, sounds alot like the whole ana nicole smith thing.

Jade Goody played the media when she was diagnosed with cancer in order to make a shit load of money for her kids. I'd do the same thing if I was in her position. It wasn't her fault that people obsess over things not worth obsessing about. She was just smart enough to capitalise on it.

(sorry)

R.I.Good riddance

I suppose her dying was sad but the way that the newspapers wrote about it was counter-productive in a sense - it changed a real-life tragedy (someone dying of cancer) into a Hallmarks weepie, about a perfect, charming princess who was brave to the end - which was always going to make the cynical (or less-easily-manipulated) react against it.


I found it strange though that everyone (well, the majority of newspaper columnists anyway) said how praiseworthy it was for Jade to make money for her children - the merest mention of words like 'mum', 'the children' and 'charity' makes people too pious in general - and yet nobody pointed-out that her children are millionaires anyway. How much do they need? Did Jade actually give any money to cancer charities? It would have given the whole thing a little more dignity; instead I couldn't rid myself of the thought that it was more vulgar money-grabbing.

how can you all be so calous, she's the people's princess!

I'd would do the same too, I thought it was potent when I first heard of it, but if you have an opportunity offered to you like that, can't blame her going for it. She's not worth anything dead.

Didn't she make her kids' mobile phone numbers public, or is that just some internet rumour?

I don't read the papers enough to know the 'truth', but apparently people were ringing both of them up to insult their own mother.

She might have been a nice person, still not everyone needs to care for someone you'd prefer not to know about, but whose face is plastered on everything that allows their face to be plastered on.

It's like appealing to the irrational side of the caring business with imposed grief-making.

So yeah, I'm sorry you died Jade, but really, I bet you wouldn't give a shit if I died of cancer, and I deserve all that dough more than you do while I'm still alive.

she didnt adhere herself to me personally..i always thought of her as someone who could play the fool easily but she was no fool, she learned quickly..
the sad thing is her demise and anyone who doesnt see the human tragedy in this is a cold hearted bastard.... the kids she leaves behind will always have a huge gap to fill..... very sad way to end..as for the televising of her last days...why the hell wouldmnt she do it..she used the media to her advantage...one day being slagged off by them, the next lapping her up like a saucer of milk....she profited in uit for her kids future...what mother wouldnt...... fair play to you jade.... well played!

Why the hell was the media so in love with her anyways? I mean, she was just some former Big Brother contestant. Of course it's terrible when a person dies of cancer at a young age but can anyone tell me why she was supposed to be something special?

She was a fetish for the middle classes, the pigshit thick deprived person who represents the 'working class', the lumpen proles from shithole no-where with no aspiration other than to make money for no ostensible reason. Woebetide anyone in the media who comes from a council estate but isn't (shock horror etc) thick as all hell.

Y'know, apart from Billy Bragg.

Maybe this? naaahhhh

Because your average person is in love with her, of course.

How can you start a thread about Jade Goody, and then say that you don't care, anyway? Hmmmm....

why am I being such a bitch? Hmmmm....

It's like a cancer. Hmmmm.....

The British middle classes can only deal with two types of people: clever and stupid. What they can't handle is smart. And Jade Goody, whatever else she may have been, was definitely smart.

How many peoiple from those backgrounds do you know to say that? And what about the upper classes? I don't understand what you mean.

all I knows is british chicks have tight coopappies.

or so I've heard....
ha ha ha

everyone loves a human train wreck. and that is what jade goodballs was. americans of all classes ad types were fascinated watching anna nicole self-destruct. "better her than me"

I thought the same thing...


Becuz that's what you're good at...
That is why we get along so well.

here here!

I reckon she was just an expert in that particular field (tabloid promotion) rather than smart, i dont sense she could have applied herself to ANYTHING.

But on a more important note, your signatures continue to blow my mind. And has anyone seen Charlie Brookers Newswipe? Its a bloody great load of beauty.
