Jade Goody Cancer, With Cheryl Cole, Michael Jackson, Omar Bakri And Slumdog
JADE Goody celebrity cancer: Anorak’s at-a-glance look at Jade Goody’s celebrity cancer with Cheryl Cole, Michael Jackson, Omar Bakri and Slumdog…
The Sun: “JADE’S GOING BLIND”
It is the “Star’s new agony”. It’s front-page news. Why Max Clifford calls David Blunkett and the Sun is printed in Braille (Page 3, too, readers!), we ask, can it get worse for Jade?
The Scotsman: “Michael Jackson sends love to dying Jade Goody
MICHAEL Jackson sent his “love” to Jade Goody, above, and asked if he could visit her in hospital, her publicist said yesterday.
Michael Jackson To Play Ten Dates In O2 Oxygen Tent!
The terminally-ill reality star was “exhausted” and under 24-hour protection after being confronted by a woman with a hammer, Max Clifford said. He added that Goody had been cheered by messages of goodwill from Jackson.
Anyone else?
The Sun: “Christian off to hell say Bakri hate mob”
It’s missing mad mullah Omar Bakri calling Jade Fish And Chips.
JADE Goody will go to hell because she is a Christian, Muslim fanatics insisted last night.
The warped internet claim by followers of hate preacher Omar Bakri followed dying Jade’s decision to be baptised.
One day Bakri might get sick. He should call Max Clifford.
Sky News: “The Who singer praises courageous Jade”
The Who singer Roger Daltry, who is organising a series of gigs for the Teenage Cancer Trust, has praised Jade Goody’s courage.
“There but for the grace of God go all of us… I think she’s been incredibly courageous. She’s made the maximum use of every minute of her life since she’s had that disease, and good luck to her.”
Glasgow Daily Record – John McKie:
JADE GOODY’S husband, Jack Tweed, has been arrested for assault, been in and out of jail and, sadly, may well soon be a widower, leaving him on his own for years to come.
You thinking what I’m thinking? Amy Winehouse. They’re perfect for each other.
Sue Carroll might disagree. Read on…
This Is Local London (Bexley): “BEXLEY: Jade Goody’s wedding day - how she went from ‘ecstatic joy to tumbling tears’”
JONATHAN Blake, the archbishop who conducted Jade Goody’s wedding ceremony, has spoken to News Shopper about the extraordinary event.
Mr Blake, 52, of Danson Crescent, Welling, has been unable to talk about the wedding until now because of Jade’s magazine deal to raise cash for her two sons.
A time for quiet reflection:
He said Jade had been determined to fill her last days “with as much light and she could bring. She is a tremendous example to all of us.”
Adding:
Mr Blake added: “During the service, Jade went from ecstatic joy, to tumbling tears.”
Mr Blake is reading from The Book Of OK!?
“The house was in a whirlwind of preparations and was bustling with people Many people, when they are dying, start slowly shutting down their lives but Jade’s house was teeming with life.”
In next week’s sermon, Rev Blake shows us around his sock collection.
Daily Mirror – Sue Carroll: “Behind every strong woman..a weak man”
It beggars belief. Just days after a second conviction for assault, Jade Goody’s new husband Jack Tweed almost got into yet another fight at the weekend.
Fight!
Luckily on this occasion friends intervened and separated him from a man he clashed with at a Tube station. True, we have no idea what brought about the altercation which led to the two men shouting obscenities at one another.
What we do know is that it took place just hours after Jack stood by his dying wife’s bed as she and her sons were christened. We must assume the Good Lord’s message of peace and love was lost on the erratic Tweed who is awaiting sentence for an assault on a cab driver.
Such are the facts, yer honour…
Given recent form, it’s hard to see how this particular leopard will change its spots. Though it can happen. Experiencing loss, growing up, taking on responsibilities and challenging internal demons can force us all into examining our motives. Whether we learn from them is a different matter.
It’s a question Cheryl Cole must be wrestling with today.
Bingo!
Jade and Cheryl deserve better than the emotionally-incontinent Jack and Ashley [Cole] who, in a perfect world, will one day cross paths.
Let’s hope it’s a sleazy bar, called something like Zits, where they can swap some “intellectual” observations between themselves - about the pneumatic blonde in the corner.
That you, Sue?
The Sun: “Jade is the Slumdog saviour”
Poppadom Millionaire?
ANGELIC Bobby Mishra once spent his days begging for scraps at an Indian railway station and his nights shivering beside the tracks. Just like the poor children in hit movie Slumdog Millionaire, the five-year-old was dodging pimps, drug dealers and thieves.
He seemed destined for a life of desperate hunger and destitution until a mystery benefactor came forward to pay for his food, clothes and medicine at a children’s shelter.
Today, The Sun reveals that his saviour was Jade Goody and that her donation has helped 126 kids escape the begging gangs.
And miss out on a part in a hit film.
Last night Bobby — whose father is dead and whose mother suffers from alcohol problems — said through a translator: “Thank you so much for our lovely food and clothes, Jade.
“You have helped us so much and made us very happy. We will all pray for you every day”.
As do the papers…

Stevie G is an athlete and a saint. A man is innocent until he is proven guilty it is not 4 u 2 say. Ashley Cole said he dun it in court so we can say he dun it.Stevie G say he aint done it so it’s up 2 court 2 say if he did. If they say he did then outrage will be 4thcoming big time.
March 11th, 2009 at 1:07 pm
The last i checked Ashley Cole was married 2 Cheryl Cole not the British media or the public, there4 she is the only person who can hold him accountable 4 any actions that threatened their marriage…i can understand the anger over the arrest and the misbehaving, but show me the same kind of outrage for the Steven Gerrard incident…

There’s a line percy between satire and nastiness. Satire and humour is Good, Unfunny nastiness is Bad.
However a holiday sounds good, I must try it very soon.
March 11th, 2009 at 9:10 am
…or if you can’t face the reality…at least try a holiday
March 11th, 2009 at 9:02 am
You have got to laugh…or else you might cry….come on C&C…stop being so stuffy and give it a try….or if its not your cup of tea…at least try a group puke with me…
March 11th, 2009 at 8:52 am
Unnecessary Tzameti, unnecessary and unfunny and of course it says more about you than it does about Jade Goody.
March 11th, 2009 at 5:45 am
Jade isn’t the “slumdog millionaire” saviour.
She’s just “some dog missing her hair”.
March 10th, 2009 at 9:07 pm
Bob -Now that is cruel…..very .funny but cruel!!!!
March 10th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
Why would Michael Jackson send his love to Jade Goody?
Has he got his eye on her kids or something?
March 10th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
wine , but no lager or vodka, choccies dubious about that as no doubt a dog will have made its way…hope it has a pocket for the remote and the mobile…
and Rickman
March 10th, 2009 at 5:08 pm
I reckon the choccies, the commode and the phone would already be under there along with a bottle of vodka, six cans of lager, a tub of Ben and Jerry’s and George Clooney!
March 10th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
You could just get comfy and then….need a pee, need a choccy , need to answer the phone/doorbell….does it come with a servant?
March 10th, 2009 at 4:23 pm

Can we stop talking about cleaning stuff please, I am 4/5 through scrubbing the kitchen, and my hands are all wrinkled and Flash etc smelling

Its possible that those of us not enamoured by JG are seeing her as receiving far more than a fair share of ’sympathy’.
She gives her sons financial wellbeing as her reason, but many other parents of young children in a similar situation as regards longterm or terminal illness are in one hell of a mess and the extreme JG wellwishers don’t even consider them, and just wish a terminal illness on whoever doesn’t adore at the JG altar.
Just recently a well to do politician lost his son, and yet after a few days it all died down, this is a more normal reaction. An actress was buried this week after a very long battle with cancer. An altruistic cancer suffer Jane Tomlinson wasn’t deified like this either .
So can you explain why JG is?.
Magnetite, there was a woman next to me in hospital some while back who had liver/bowel cancer, and if the tumour in the liver gets too close to the vena cava the whole body puffs up from midchest to the feet, it also happened 6 months later to a cousin. possibly a colostomy as well, the cousin did too
March 10th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
Nope yampster, I’ll have to up the ante to a combination of Brasso and Nitromors. Thanks.
March 10th, 2009 at 3:45 pm
You can always clamp the tube and take the bag off for short periods. You don’t have to wear it 24/7. My Dad used to take his off for the dancing. It saved embarrassment during the dips in the Tango. Let’s see you lose that image with the windolene
March 10th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
It is possible that (and I’m going to have to burn this image from my mind with something stronger than coffee) a colostomy bag wouldn’t fit under a dress.
I’ve got Windowlene. I just hope that does it.

‘one step from Mother Theresa.’
She is now.
I noted the hospital gown episode. The following day Jack was bringing her sexy undies from some West End shop but no one thought to nip into Marks for a nightie and a dressing gown for the big day
March 10th, 2009 at 3:24 pm
Dairy… I was commenting more on the media coverage than on JG herself.
From being portrayed as the devil incarnate just a couple of years she is suddenly, because she has cancer, one step from Mother Theresa.
Good headlines is what this is all about……. and of course, bad advice and Max Clifford doing what he’s good at!
I mean, why did she have to wear a ”new hospital gown’ for the christening? More sympathetic photo shoot for the Desmond rags? Her helpers, especially her mother, could just as easily have put her in a white frock!
Just wait for the bickering over her will eventually. after all, she has a husband now who is entitled…….
March 10th, 2009 at 2:58 pm
nobody is saying that other people are less deserving, they just are not in the public spotlight; however, some people DO seem to be saying that JG is somehow less deserving because she is featured seemingly every day - it’s the reverse argument and it doesn’t work.
if cancer is the leveller that people say it is, then everyone, Sleb or not, should get equal sympathy, shouldn’t they….?
March 10th, 2009 at 1:40 pm
Of course she is deserving of sympathy, as is everyone else afflicted.
But is she more deserving of the daily worship in the media, and why are the other poor souls less deserving?
March 10th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
C&C - I think it’s a bit rough to equate Jade Goody with the likes of the Yorkshire Ripper and Ian Huntley - she’s never murdered anyone to my knowledge.
…and yes, cancer is a leveller - so therefore wouldn’t you agree that JG is equally deserving of sympathy for her pain and suffering, just as much as all the other poor souls suffering this horrible disease….? does her being in the media daily make her less worthy in that sense….?
March 10th, 2009 at 12:51 pm
C&C
I absolutely agree, its meant to be how we live our lives and that is how we should be judged. Cancer and other illness shouldn’t be seen as reward or punishment, they are neither, after all very young babies die of ghastly painful conditions, and some evil old shits enjoy a life time of good health( this was discussed while you were away).
But these days ’saintliness’ seems to be conferred on the loudest and richest, (however that was achieved) and for some unknown reason on the young, and even that is seen as a ‘reward’ even though time cures that for all.
Values are very shallow and cheap these days, perhaps the hard times around all might wake a few up that shopping and the latest mascara isn’t the measure of life.
March 10th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
What, Petermac, the two tremendously addictive, government sanctioned (through taxes) substances available everywhere? No, not all that strange, no.
March 10th, 2009 at 11:45 am
The Sun: “Jade is the Slumdog saviour”
ANGELIC Bobby Mishra …seemed destined for a life of desperate hunger and destitution …. Bobby — whose father is dead and whose mother suffers from alcohol problems.. ( Heavily Edited)”
Isn’t it strange that how the extremely poor always have money for alcohol and tobacco.
March 10th, 2009 at 11:45 am
with no disrespect at all….. what is saintly about dying of cancer? Does cancer automatically ensure sainthood?
What if, say The Yorkshire Ripper was struck down with it? If he ‘fights bravely’ does that eliminate all that went before? what about Ian Huntley?
Cancer is a lottery and a leveller, the good, the bad, the ugly and the unholy can all get it, some are fortunate enough to get over it, others not so, but the phrases ‘bravely fighting’ and ‘won’t be beaten’ are actually inane.
The Goody Cancer Circus is obscene and gives no thought to those who die daily leaving behind families. No million pound support fund courtesy of Express/Hello for their children.
Very pukeworthy.
and don’t get me started on the very saintly Cheryl Cole……..
March 10th, 2009 at 10:58 am
..you couldn’t make this up….
