I was hoping to try and keep the sick jokes an comments off this thread. I most certainly don`t find JG`s passing a time for humour.

Agreed – as much as I despise the reasons for her ‘celebrity’ status and the media and her publicist for cashing-in on her condition, I find nothing about the premature passing of Ms Goody as amusing.

The only good thing that has risen from this circus is awareness that this disease is not confined to the 40+ and can inflict anyone.

Personally couldnt care about JG, 1 of my best friends dad has cancer and he doesnt get any money off the Daily rags to help my mate if the worst was to happen and my dad has worked for Christies for about the last 5 years and i appreciate how cancer effects lives but a racist tart who is famous for getting her kebab out on tele and bullying now is getting sounded out as a new Diana and a example to us all is ridiculous and says alot of how this country has gone to the dogs. I feel for her kids, genuinely but feelings for her none.

As with a few things I read of yours, you're sitting on the fence a little.

Your opinions on this matter, like other issues come across (to me anyway) rather confusing.

Wouldn't wish death on anyone, but as for Gordon Brown and David Cameron expressing their sadness regarding the death of Jade Goody, did they make these comments about Wendy Richards or the lass who died from the skiing accident this week?

Whats confusing about it? I don't agree with the way she dealt with things and thought I had made that perfectly clear in my posts on the matter?

But that doesn't change the fact that a) with how she has made herself famous it was inevitable that she would make the decision to play her death for everything she could and b) its tragic for her family and friends that she has died - no matter what we think about her it doesn't change what they will be going through.

The post I saw on Facebook on Jord Rhinos page with you defending jade Goody quite vigerously, and then I read on here the implication from you that she is/was a greedy so and so and the "media cirucs" was to be expected from her.

I think I know where you're coming from and understand your views. It is just they do seem abit mixed sometimes.


I think I'm going to have a nap on the train tommorrow, don't think I will bother reading a paper

The sooner they bury or burn her the better, then everyone who cares can get back to watching Jeremy Kylie.

I'm not sure what comments you mean - other than telling Jordan off for his status yesterday I don't recall commenting on it on his status, the debate was on CPs profile and at no time did I defend her on there!

i don't think she was racist, just an ignorant stupid woman who became 'famous' for being as thick as sh*t.
her life, and death was a circus and like longun the sooner she is planted the better.

the only people who have my sympathy are her kids who are left with that toerag who will squander and steal the money she cashed in on

anyone else think she looks like jordan Tansey?

I know what your saying and I do feel that she should of stopped the media when she got married and when she knew she only had a few weeks to live.

a few of us mentioned Jane Tomlinson at lunch today

Yes the logic behind the Goody publictity of raising cash for the kids and raising awareness for smear tests was good but the red tops took her to the messiah status, part of me wishes Tomlinson had the same treatment

Would she have wanted that though? She didn't appear to be doing what she did for self gain at all.

to publicise her work..Yes

She did get that publicity though - just in a more dignified way and one that rightfully earned her attention and respect for what she was doing.

It's a tough decision to make definately, and from Jade's point of view it's a no-brainer - take the money and have your last shot at fame - so you are right, it's difficult to blame the girl. But I'm not sure it's the best decision for her kids. You and me will have no interest in her kids lives, or any story that follows - and if the World was made up of people who thought like that then her decision was correct. But the World is made up of very different people and there will be a huge, un-ending appetite for stories about the children, the husband, the father (who is another talentless Z list celeb). There is no amount of money that I would take if I thought it would make a mess of my kids lives. A clean slate is better than a marked card.

In hope they leave all alone now and in 10 years time it's all forgotten.

I've never bought a copy of OK or Hello or heat magazine. Never. Not interested.

I wasn't interested in Jade Goody's "career".

I don't, however, find anything in the suffering and death of a young woman with children that makes me want to pontificate about my point of view on an internet forum.

Decides? You ignorant git.

Yes.

You just have done, muppet !

Somneone's tetchy.

chill out.

where? and what is his view?

I haven't, moron.

Answer Leicester_rhino's question if you think I have.
