JADE Goody celebrity cancer: Anorak’s at-a-glance look at Jade Goody’s celebrity cancer with Jade’s obituary…
The Sun: “She thought Rio De Janeiro was a person and ‘East Angular’ was a place in Africa”
JADE’S childlike innocence and hilarious blunders charmed the nation when she first shot to fame on Big Brother 3… Her fellow housemates, and a growing TV audience, mocked her for her ignorance
And the press… What did they say, specifically The Sun?
The Sun called her a hippo, then a baboon, before launching its campaign to “vote out the pig”.
The caring Sun…
TODAY Bizarre speaks its mind and urges readers to vote JADE out of the Big Brother house. The pig with the biggest mouth on TV has finally been nominated for eviction - and now YOU have the power to roast her.
Jade has few redeeming qualities and her housemates have at last become aware of her bitchiness and backbiting.
About time too…
She doesn’t deserve to win the £70,000 prize and you can help stop her getting her trotters on it…
I urge you to exercise your democratic right and vote the pig out.
The Sun: “Mum was a lesbian, Dad was a drug addict burglar who hid guns under her cot”
Or you can smile, as she always tried to do, remembering that the world was not quite ready for the brash, boisterous, guileless young woman who burst on to our TV screens seven years ago… and heaven is almost certainly not ready either.
Anorak recalls Graham Norton building his entire post-Big Brother show around the “porcine” Goody.
The first time she was mentioned in the press, in May 2002, Jade Goody was described as a “pretty dental nurse, 20, from London”. But 24 hours later, as she began her gobby, ignorant trajectory in the Big Brother house, The People went on the attack under the headline: “Why we must lob the gob”. Before long it was open season. The Sunday Mirror rejected porcine comparisons on the ground that it was “insulting – to pigs”.
Inside the “BB” house, Jade Goody found herself in bed with her male housemate, PJ, who ran away, shrieking.
After getting a blow job. And, no. he wasn’t running. He was in bed.
Her drunken striptease in a drinking game rigged by the male contestants (”Me kebab is showing!”) forced even Channel 4 to blank the screen.
An “I was there” moment of telly viewing. Jade Goody was entertaining. She was on the telly.
“Here she is: fat-rolled, Michelin girl Jade in all her preposterous lack of glory,” thundered the Daily Mirror the next day. “Naked as the day Dr Frankenstein made her.” Jade’s then boyfriend chipped in: “She’s a sex-crazed, lying, two-timing drunken tart, and I hope I never see her again.”
And her dad, who died:
There was also plenty of clapping and cheering for Jade in Bedford jail, where her father Andrew Goody is serving four years for robbery and theft.
He tells the Star of his heartbreak at ”the cruel jibes and abuse” he suffered when the other inmates were glued to Jade’s antics.
”When she was with PJ, every cell door in the jail was banging in time and I wanted to hide and lash out,” he recalls with a shudder. ”It was twice the noise they made when England scored in the World Cup.
Jade Goody A Reader Apology: Exclusive To All Newspapers
Jade Goody is dead. A woman died today. A woman of just 27 years of age with two children died today. And that is tragic. And for all the grandstanding, she might yet save a life…
RIP.

She may have snuffed it, but her muck-raking family and publicist will keep the golden goose on afterlife speed-dial for a long time yet.
April 8th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
she’s dead - save your bile for something else….

Unfortunately, there’s bound to be life after death for the pig-faced media whore. Diaries, films, sainthood, books by people who met her once at a book-signing.
Apparently, Derek Acorah has got her on his next series.

I’m pretty sure that JG wasn’t a whore. She may have used the media to her advantage over the past years, and she may have been rough round the edges, but i think she was a girl who was trying to fight her way out of the mess she grew up in. She seemed like a genuine enough person, and i think, if she was an average girl, who had stayed out of the limelight, no-one would have a problem with her. Even though she had her brash side… i think what stood out in her personality, was her determination, and postive outlook. I admire that about her, I think it’s a terrible shame she died.
And a note to the moderator… freedom of speech is all well and good, but some of the comments on here are really bad… ie number 323… I don’t see how it can be ok to post a remark like that.

thank fuck the waste of space whore is dead

Late, I know - but I call sockpuppet on Emily. But whose? That’s the question.
March 27th, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Mrs Tweed snuffed it as a direct result of her ignorance.
Those that live by the sword and all that.
Move along, nothing to see here.

You summed it up perfectly, Yossarian!

My last post was badly worded but i’m sure you know what i meant
March 27th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
The sun had more pages about jade goody croaking than they did about september 11th 2001. Says it all
March 27th, 2009 at 8:03 pm
That’s a good point. Exactly how many trees were used to make “tributes” to the useless one? What a waste, the Sun, Britain’s favourite paper (for brainless dickheads) had a SIXTEEN page tribute, plus all the other pages it took to tell us that a stupid woman who had no talent and a terminal illness had died, as we had all been expecting.
One of the many reasons I don’t buy it.
March 27th, 2009 at 1:25 pm
is it safe to buy a paper yet without being subjected to a 10 page special of jade goody? thank god she is dead now lets move on!
March 26th, 2009 at 10:04 pm
Cheryl, you’re right. One hears bear (bare?) cussin like this on road. I ‘ave to arsk why she is finkin bout me mums boobs, is she a bean flicka? Bloodclart!
(Sorry, I’m 39, middle class(ish) and white. I did my best)

…EMILY….Graham Norton is a comic, ….just in case you were wondering…
because I do.
March 26th, 2009 at 8:44 pm
EMILY… since you have spent so much time & effort to post your passionate & perverted prose…please allow me to try to explain…..”Pig” is not a term I would normally use to describe any person unless they are one. It is used in this context because it was once used by Graham Norton and parts of the media as a pet name for Jade. By using it I am trying satirically to pay homage & honour great humourists ,also to show I am not hypocritcal just because Jade was once critical & is now sadly, dead.
I hope you are not tooo hurt to try to understand.
By the way….is your last name Bronte by any chance?….I LV Y BKS

C&C and Dr Eggman, she is no grade schooler! She is using crass ’street talk’ and spelling the words how they sound spoken in street lingo. My oh my, haven’t heard that gutter talk out of a girl in years. Emily, you should be ashamed of yourself and clean up your mouth!
March 26th, 2009 at 6:28 pm
My six year old can type better, I’m guessing she’s at Nursery.
March 26th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
Emily, Emily, You can’t insult people effectively if you can’t string a sentence together or spell. You’ll just make them laugh.
I guess you’re still in primary school so off you go HOMEWORK then bed, there’s a good girl.

Jade Goody…a martyr to ignorance.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
i hope they write the same thing about them when they are dead. shame on u ,and i hope u are proud of yourself.
March 24th, 2009 at 7:34 pm
oh my god what is this world coming to??!!!
March 24th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
hahaha, brilliant!!!! I am sooo happy someone had the balls to actually say this and bring it on …remember her for what she was, a reality TV fat bitch!. What has society come to? We value “celebrities” in general and people like her? were are the real values? honesty? friendship? love? What is so amazing about this woman? that she got cancer and died? There are plenty people out there who have cancer and don’t make it to the news. There are many women out there who get bitten up by their husbands or boyfriends and they also don’t make it to the news..Oh but Rihana and Jade Goody are people to look up to, PLEASE! What is the message this is sending to our young ones…be a fat bitch and you’ll be rich, you’ll be happy? society will accept you, beat your woman coz is the norm, is what a cool dude does?. Get serious people, open your eyes. I may be in the minority who do not care the pig has died. And yes I know Anarak didnt write the article but how funny to know these newspapers said all these things and probably now they are all saying how sorry they are…again fake people who have doublestandards, power trippers, and money motivated.
March 24th, 2009 at 1:20 pm
I personally agree that she perhaps should have been a bit more open with her children about why she was dying… the way I look at it although they are young, it would’ve been better for them to know what was happening while it was happening rather than finding out through newspapers/ documentaries/ magazines in a few years time and having to deal with it later in their lives. At the end of the day though, it was the decision she made and nothing can change it, nor take away from the fact that telling young children about these things is difficult.
To all the people still posting insults and shouting etc. etc. I count very few posts that have actually been directly insulting Jade. The rest of us have been discussing the original content of the article; fickle public opinion, the media rapidly changing their stance to reflect public opinion, and all the posts of those individuals that mindlessly rant without reading anything. We could take Jade out of the equation and most of the posts would still stand! I’m sure most of us agree with Grand Finale that ANY death of a young person is regrettable, and with ‘anon’ that there is such thing as freedom of speech - after all these comment boxes are here for us to comment/discuss(!)
And as a final point, if you really can’t see the point of the article and are blinded by your love of all things Jade Goody, what are you doing reading and posting on this website?! If you don’t like it, don’t read it!
PS. katie, people can’t be bothered to spell because even if they try they just can’t - instead of doing something about it and learning, they take the sad viewpoint of Vicky Pollard “Am I bovvered?” and add to the ever increasing number of lazy, semi-literate and uneducated people in Britain.
March 24th, 2009 at 1:20 pm
I agree you should be honest with kids at any age. My kids were aged eight and five when my mum died and, as it was very sudden, we didn’t have time to prepare them. They used to see her most days up until the day she died so they obviously missed her but accepted it as a fact of life.
My SIL wouldn’t even let her kids watch the beginning of Finding Nemo because she didn’t want to have to explain about the fish dying.
She thought it would upset them too much.
March 24th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
anon
perhaps its something to do with the intelligence of the ….
March 24th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
and last rant of the day…I really do feel for her boys and one thing I can’t understand is that Jade wants them to have a good education and go to a good private school which is really good but then why lie to them? Why didn’t she explain to them what was really happening (obviously not in great detail) but that way when they are older they might want to become great Doctors and try to find cures instead she told them she had tadpoles inside her making her sick?? so now they are probably going to go round killing all the tadpoles they can find as they think they go round killing peoples Mummy’s. They might also go round committing crimes like beating up taxi drivers as that way they get to go to tropical islands with pirates and jungle animals I mean come on!!! My little boy is 3 and for a 3 year old he understands quite alot and her boys were alot older. Death is a part of life and surely we should explain this to our young when a disaster hits a family not fill their heads with make believe fairy stories. Anyway that’s it now ranting over at the end of the day a young mother and wife was taken drastically by a horrible deadly disease end of.
March 24th, 2009 at 10:15 am
It’s nice to see that there are people on here with sense, I agree with thereisagod and that she did have enough money for her boys already, it wasn’t as if she was on income support and getting by on less than 50 quid a week! did you notice that every photo of her in her last days she had a full face of make up? that’s because the papers were outside her house every day waiting for news to sell their papers and everytime she left the house a make-up artist would make her look good for the pictures. Basically to put it bluntly the media were outside her house waiting for her to die as they knew they were going to sell loads of papers. O.K didn’t even wait and issued a tribute edition magazine a week before she died! I can understand what she did but think she should have concentrated on being with her family and shielding her boys from the media as they are only after what sells be it good or bad. I also think they shouldn’t show the funeral on T.V it’s something that should be just for her and her family. And in response to Janelle you say you are 27 as am I and that they refused you a smear because of your age, well the age went up in 2004 which means you should have had one in 2002 when you were 21 as did I. Also these people on here who keep saying they believe in karma and that we are making a mockery of the dead - helloooooo we are all entitled to opinions and there is such a thing as freedom of speech (well there used to be) so get of your high horses making out you are the pope who never sin and accept people have opinions and some people are not hypocrites.

she has gone…. goody goody, she is out of my misery.
March 24th, 2009 at 1:39 am
Not at all a fan of JG but there are a lot worse out there! Live and let live I say!
It’s a damned shame though, that ANY young person has to die of an otherwise cureable disease nowadays (ie. treatable if it’s caught early enough)
