Poor Jade Goody breathed her last today. She had cervical cancer and was only 27. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade_Goody
Jade was a participant in Big Brother and had the country in incredulous laughter at her woeful ignorance at so many things. However, she became famous due to this very "stupidity" and had things like workout videos and perfumes marketed under her name. Her notoriety however reached the peak when she took part in Celebrity Big Brother with Shilpa Shetty, where she insulted Shilpa with racist remarks, causing a furore, floodgate of complaints and a major sponsor pulling out from BB. Later Jade tearfully said that she was not racist and that she was shocked at the backlash from the British public and people all over. Jade ironically was invited to India for a tour and took part in the Indian BB. It was during filming of this show that she got a call from her doctor in England informing her of the bad news and worse, she had only months to live. Jade rushed back to England, got officially married to her boyfriend, and baptised her children. Meanwhile Shilpa travelled to England to visit the critically-ill Jade.
I must admit that I used to laugh at Jade's idiocy. Even the way she spoke reflected her uneducated background. I never disliked her though, and had respect for her when she used her fame to make money. Why not? She came from a dysfunctional family - a father who was in and out of jail and a mother was a drug addict. So she deserved that break. And I believed her when she said that she was not racist - she was just ignorant, that's all. It's a symptom of uneducated, poor English people.
A life snuffed at such a young age, leaving two little boys orphans. RIP Jade

She was too young to go and just two weeks ago, our eyes swelled up reading about her joy in seeing her two sons. May her soul rest in peace!

I think what shocked me even more was the speed in which she died. Poor thing.

I thought of her fitness video, and I am sorry but I was laughing. She did that, making people laugh inadvertently.
Sad life, sad death.

Rest in Peace Jane
