Oh my goodness, there is much in the previous article which I want to shout 'see, it's true!'

But to be fair to people on here who would describe themselves as 'no fan of Jade' - I realise that most have been gracious and tempered in their response to the latest chapter in the media story of Jade Goody.

In the past, I've been described as a 'Jade fan'. I would never describe myself in that way. But I am someone who seems to be able to identify the good in people - all sorts of people - and I have seen good in Jade.

Unfortunately I have observed the 'good people' - people who are SO much BETTER than the likes of Jade - often seem to behave in a more hateful fashion than the woman of which they - often justifiably - disapprove.

Jade is not 'great' - far from it. All human beings are flawed, to a greater or lesser extent. Life throws crap at us. How we deal with it is a measure of our character. Some are better equipped to cope than others. We are all prejudiced - I struggle to make allowances for Rex from BB9 - but at the heel of the hunt, probably the only worthwhile thing we can do is to focus on the positive, hard as it may seem.

'Let him who is without sin cast the first stone'.

God forgive us for being so eager to chuck stones. :-?

Well written ()^

I am as you say 'no fan of Jade'. I appreciate that everyone has faults, but what I see as a good person, is someone who can recognise and admit to their faults and try to correct them. In the past, Jade hasn't always been able to see that she is at fault and has still always believed that she has been right, even when her faults have been pointed out to her. Sometimes, she seems to be a bit too full of her own self importance.

I am very much against bullying and Jade was a bully in BB3, Celeb BB and another reality programme, the name of which escapes me now. It is a shame that she did not learn from the first time. It may not be her fault really though that she is the way she is. Her upbringing may have something to do with it. She may not really know any different and it may be her way of defending herself. I also think that sometimes it was brought about by her misunderstanding something.

Having said that, I can see some good things about Jade as well (it's just that people tend to focus on her negative points rather than her good ones) and I certainly would NEVER say that she deserved to get cancer. That is a truly horrible thing to say. I wish her all the best and hope that she makes a good recovery as soon as possible.

I also agree with her decision to get money from her cancer, as like she says, other people get sick pay when they are ill, but she doesn't and she needs to make sure that she has money for her children.

By making her cancer public, she has also raised the awareness of the disease and now lots more girls are being tested.

Quote:
JADE Goody’s cervical cancer bombshell has led to thousands more women getting tested, it was revealed last night.

Smear tests have gone up about 20 per cent since the Celebrity Big Brother star was diagnosed in August.

The news came as the 27-year-old, who has a 50/50 chance of survival, spoke of her chemo hell.

Mum-of-two Jade told a pal: “I’m quite scared. I didn’t realise it would be as bad as this and I feel very drained.”

But Jade — who had a hysterectomy last month — added: “I’m pleased my cancer has raised awareness among women.
Pain

“Hopefully more tests will save lives and reduce the number of women who would otherwise share my pain.”

The rise in cervical cancer tests was last night compared to the “Kylie Effect”, which saw breast cancer awareness raised after the singer fell ill.

At Sheffield Primary Care Trust 750 women a day now have tests — up from 250 a week before the news of Jade’s fate.

And Southwark PCT in south London saw a 25 per cent rise in smears.

Cancer Research UK’s Liz Woolf said: “Jade’s story made a lot more people seek information about cervical cancer.”

Meanwhile, Jade is set to see sons Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, before her second chemo round on Thursday.

What a thoughtful article.


Are you serious?

What about 'celebrity' promotion?

Are you suggesting that agents aren't involved?

No argument from me that Jade is ill & needs treatment. But where does the hype of 'celebrity' begin and end?

Jade & her then boyfriend called Shilpa Shetty a 'paki' in a limerick not broadcast by Endemol in CBB5.

GOOD LUCK, JADE

It’s amazing that Jade Goody has finally managed to speak out after Katie Andre accused her of cashing in on her cancer for publicity.

Jade told OK! last week that she basically hates Katie and pointed out the fact that she exploits her disabled child on the cover of every magazine, as well as her cancer in her finger a few years back.

I think Jade is so brave and I wish her all the luck as she starts her chemotherapy.

OK

Jordan's 'spiteful' blast

Sunday, 19 October 2008

Jordan has blasted Jade Goody.

The former glamour model has accused Jade - who recently revealed she is being treated for cervical cancer - of being "spiteful".

She said: "Can I just say, I can't believe Jade Goody has come out and said I'm spiteful and that she hates me. She's the spiteful one for the way she behaved when she was on 'Celebrity Big Brother'. People seem to forget that.

"I wouldn't wish cancer on my worst enemy, but the fact remains that she was a racist bully in that show. That's all I was saying when I spoke about her before. I know she is a mum and is going through a lot at the moment, though."

The whole Jordan, Kerry Katona, Jade Goody & even Victoria Beckham hype is bizarre with no logic, apart from the fact that z-list promotion exists on a massive scale within celebrity magazines & the tabloids these days, particularly Richard Desmond's Daily Star group.

I hope Jade Goody, who didn't do very well on BB3, makes a safe recovery.
There is no need for Jade Goody & her agents to jump on the fact that she has cervical cancer & obsess themselves with promoting 'celebrity' & making a buck.

Jordan & Peter Andre's fame is a joke, especially when they've managed to earn millions?? - but Jordan, this time, is actually right.

They should tie those three together and leave them somewhere for a while.
