Jade Goody

[Hardy]

I hate the society we are being frogmarched into by the lowest common denominator of humanity. But it is a reassurance to have yesterday's uplifting events and the fine people involved to contrast with this sickening circus and the despicable ghouls directing it and performing in it.

always sad when a young person passes away.

the media coverage of this has been absoloutely sickening.  A tribute issue of hello before the girl actually died is just the most sickening and it will continue.

Couldn't believe it last week when I saw that edition being advertised on tv.  A few years ago that sort of thing would have been a spoof on Brass Eye and you would have laughed and not believed it would actually happen.  The next step will be watching a 'live' death, tv's not exactly far away from it at the minute.  Anyway still feel very sorry for the girl, to be in your twenties and have to face the absolute inevitably of your impending demise.. rip.

It's a wonder Max Clifford didn't try to revive her so they could rush a camera crew in for the money shot. Selfish of her to die in her sleep.

[milltown row]

just seen the news, sad and on a day such as Mothers Day.

hopefully as minder has pointed out, with all the awareness, that more women go for smear tests

I had that thought as well...but respectively suppressed it 

[magickingdom]

from thinking she was a fool of the highest order from the little bit of big brother i saw i admire the way at 27 she faced the most shocking news imaginable. the coverage is offensive on a number of levels but i'd have more time for her then some of our more 'respected' bankers. who did a bigger con job? RIP jade

[Puckoon]

Very sad, young life and leaving behind young lives with no mummy and obviously some lack of direction.
I wonder when it was all said and done, did jade goody learn anything from her numerous ups and downs.

Poor girl, RIP.

[maggie]

Scary to think shes the same age as me.
It does make you think.
Sad for her sons.
RIP

While I think it is really sad that a young woman is taken at such an early age I'm not in agreement that the British Prime Minister is taking time to announce his regret at her passing. There are hundreds of people every day who pass on in similar circumstances who have not been as fortunate as Ms Goody to have been able to put a few million in the bank for their loved ones future. Where's their posting on national news websites?

A class act like Natasha Richardson dies tragically and it yields barely a comment.

But someone who thought Wales was in Scotland, who was a racist and whose husband had to be released from jail just to make their wedding gets a 6 page thread when she dies.

Welcome to modern society.

Oh and Brown leading the tributes - why? That sort of pandering to celebrity non-entities should have left with Blair.

[ziggysego]

Whatever your feelings about Jade or the comments regarding her death, I feel you were way out of line muppet. She's barely dead.

[pintsofguinness]

Why is he out of line ziggy? He's said nothing that isn't true.

[Minder]

I think Muppet is commenting more on modern society than Goody herself Ziggy.
