Title: Jade Goody dies
Post by: Simon on March 22, 2009, 09:46

Reality TV star Jade Goody has died at the age of 27, her spokesman Max Clifford has confirmed.

She died at home with her family in Upshire, Essex, overnight on Saturday after a high-profile battle with cervical cancer.

Can't say I ever liked her, but my sympathies go out to her children.  :rip:

The newspapers must have been annoyed with the timing of her death.

I wasn't all that fussed on her either  but I always have sympathy for kids  :)

yes I feel for her family etc but I'm pleased that the media will stop publishing stories about her. She did nothing important and got "famous". I believe the media have treated the whole thing in a rather sickening manner.

Grotesque even.

It's the hypocrisy of the media which gets me.  A couple of years ago, she was a racist pig.  Hopefully, the money she's made out of the publicity will be used to better the lives of her children.

That's providing that waste of space 'husband' doesn't get his hands on it.

I'm sure the funeral will be another media circus.  I don't think I've seen so much coverage since the Queen Mother snuffed it!

Yup, according to the Telegraph. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/jade-goody/5035749/Jade-Goodys-funeral-to-be-screened-on-television.html)

Oh for goodness sake!  I would not be surprised if she really died several days ago and Max Clifford held the announcement back so it would coincide with Mother's Day to wreak maximum sympathy.   ::)

I'm equally cynical, Clive. :(

I could also well believe that, Clive, and it's quite sickening, the amount of money he must have made out of this.
