    R.I.P Jade.

    RIP, an awful way to go.

    Jade's ex-husband seems to have been a nice person, stuck around and did his duty of looking after the (his) kids and providing support, but keeping away from the media.

    ---
    My point exactly!!

    I wonder does Jack Tweedy get half now that they're married???

    The marriage.. the true colours of various characters in this will come out, money does odd things to folks way of thinking.. unfortunately for us, as media by-standers, the Jade saga is far from over.

    it just highlights how hypocritical the british media are. they love her now all of a sudden. the new Diana!!!

    Today Ireland celebrates sporting heros.

    Britain celebrates the life of a nobody.

    Lets just hope we don't ever end up like that as a nation.


    You must of been out of the country when Kathy French died :pac:

    Small point, could a moderator capitalise her name on the thread title. It is all lower case.

    You forget that she died because of all of that bad 'foreign' cocaine.

    RIP, I didnt like the way she carried on but I think its time people show some bit of respect. The woman has died now. Were Living tv covering it?

    So did two other people around the same time yet the papers hardly mentioned them.

    yea.. but the Biography Channel has taken over full coverage.

    Jade Goody, a moron who made me laugh when she first came on to our screens.

    Jade Goody, a moron who made me cringe during the racism scandal.

    Jade Goody, a moron who waited far too long for a smear test and then disregarded her results.

    Jade Goody, a moron who got a life threatening illness that nobody except horrid murdering type people deserve.

    Jade goody, a moron who kept journalists in jobs and money in the bank for her kids.

    Jade Goody, a moron like the rest of us, may she rest in peace.

    Ooh, you're so hard.

    It is a basic sign of respect for someone, whether you know them or not.

    sadly, i'm pretty sure she had several over the last few years and got the all clear.

    RIP

    personal insults thread :eek:

    As far as I'm aware, she had symptoms but was misdiagnosed over the last couple of years.

    Probably because she did not fit the "profile", younger people find it harder to get a diagnosis for just that reason...if nothing else, it might make a few doctors take young people with symptoms more seriously...

    This thread disgusts me, as did the last Jade Goody thread from a few weeks ago that was closed down.
    Only the lowest of the low speak ill of the dead.
    For all those who are 'apathetic', get real. You're obviously not if you take the time to post. Especially to the OP. You claim to be apathetic yet start a post 'because no one else had'. You choose after hours to open the post. That would be the last place I would choose to discuss her death if you were actually wanted a serious discussion about the scary fact that it could happen to any of us.

    Young people should also take HPV more seriously.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 183 ✭✭Lilyblue


    My thoughts are with her boys, husband, mother and friends. She was extreamly brave. May she rest in peace.

    Its not like you can avoid it realistically. A lot of doctors refuse to accept that young people who are any way outside the norm can get cancer. It could be any one of us...

    is there no moderation here.to all the people that are happy about her death i hope it is you that are made look at your mothers/children die in agonising pain.if fact i wish it upon you

    jeez will someone lock this thread :mad:
    its pathetic at this stage

    Would it be any less pathetic if everyone pretended that they liked or respected her? Or would that be even more pathetic? She chose to sell her life to the media and if people disliked her then it's fair enough


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,258 ✭✭✭Numina


    She could've had a reasonably admirable life if it wasn't for Big Brother. She came from a terrible upbringing and was training to become a dental nurse, until she went into Big Brother that is.

    that's worse than anything else that was posted in this thread.. none of us wished jade goody to die.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 32,865 ✭✭✭✭MagicMarker


    Meh.

    I'm just disappointed there was no thread like this for Natasha Richardson, someone who is at least worthy of praise, and an actual loss to people besides her family.
    It might have something to do with the fact that no one had a fúcking clue who she was until the accident, and more than likely wouldn't had she not been married to Liam Neeson.

    no i dont think that people should pretend
    to like ,dislike her we are all bloody human beings
    who make mistakes like jade only she did them in the
    public eye, she was young and maybe a bit immature,
    what would any girl her age do if they were suddenly all over the press
    id go mad myself and probably do the same....
    but enough is enough, let the girl rest in peace
