I doubt whether Andrew Sachs does though. Andrew Sachs has good cause not to.

Still, her tanning trip was a success. She looks good on that. I didnt have me down as much of a cynic but that woman is bringing out the worsed in me

Well people didn't care and our heroes are not prescribed to us, we have the right to choose them and the people chose Jade. Fame has long been bequeathed by virtue of wealth and birth and this was the first generation where it was democratically distributed by that most lowbrow of modern phenomena - Reality Television. She was a person who, I think due to her class always had the propensity to irk people. When Big Brother 3 made her famous she was vilified in the paper and bullied in the house but through her spirit she won people back round and became a kind of Primark Princess with perfumes and fitness videos and endless media coverage - because people were interested in her. They remain interested. One of my best friends, a woman in her mid twenties is genuinely heartbroken at the death of Jade, herself a Mother from a working Class background she obviously connects with this sad narrative in a way that she doesn't seem to with J-Lo or Jennifer Aniston or Posh Spice most likely because of Jade's authenticity and accessibility.

I was working on a Celebrity Big Brother spin off show when Jade returned to the house and through unschooled social clumsiness blundered into a whooped up race row. As I said at the time, the incident where Shilpa Shetti was poorly treated by a group of young women was not an example of the sickening scourge of racism but simply a daft lack of education. Jade was a tough girl but utterly lacking in the malice upon which true prejudice depends. The slick of spilled newspaper ink and the cathode conveyed H-bomb that followed this innocuous event was the real crime. Jade was made the focus of a debilitating wave of righteous loathing and condemnation, a gleefully indignant storm of trumped up wrath that served the cause of racial harmony not one iota; but that was never it's intention. The intention was sacrifice. Well now Jade Goody is no more. Claimed by cancer, a disease often brought on by extreme stress. When my mother was sick someone unkindly informed me that her illness was my fault, induced by my bad behaviour and for a long time I believed it.

I'm glad that Jade's death has been handled with saccharine mittens by the papers, she lived and died in the glare of their interest and doubtless benefited from it hugely at times. I recall her tearstained face pegged across some rag as she endlessly sought to be forgiven by the media her misconstrued conduct had so incensed and it made me a little angry. She wanted to be accepted, loved, redeemed, and now through her early death, she is. I hope some of the lessons of this modern Fairy Tale are learned, that the people who aspired to be like Jade observe the price she paid. I hope her sons are ok and that on some imperceptible level contrition is felt by the media that gave Jade Goody everything.

For Jade « Russell Brand

That woman who went to a beauty salon for a fake tan hours before her daughter slipped away. that woman who now insistes that it was her daughters dying wish along with getting her rotton teeth fixed to look good at the funeral. Do you mean 'that' woman? :wah:

The anniversary of Martin Luther King's assination. Oh and it's the Grand National as well. I'll be at Aintree thank god.

He is actually a very intelligent man and capable of mistakes like we all are. I like him alot and find him hilarious but realise like everything we don't all like the same.

No, he can't do what he did and ever be allowed to recover from it. Some things are just too abysmally deliberately barbaric to be forgiven.

Him and Ross should have been banned by the media and never work again at the time. All he is doing now is pathetically trying to reedeem his image with the young that followed Jade. Would he write such a piece if Andrew Sachs had died? No.... He's cashing in like all the other parasites that have just remembered that they once met her.

Some-one pass me a sick bucket quick.

I dont know if you clicked on the link that spot put on with his post about what Brand had written,,, some of it was missed off the bit that spot copied and pasted,,, the first couple of paragraphs i think ,, where he explains how he knows Jade and has spent time with her ,, and how he liked the way she got on with his mum etc. Im not arguing a point here ,, just saying i think he may have a valid reason for writing what he did,, as in he knew her personally,,

True but i am sickened by the amount of people now coming out of the woodwork. I remember the sad interview she gave to the Sun when she was first diagnosed that no-one in celeb world had contacted her. Where was Brand then?

At least i was cheered to see that the family have banned the odious Jordon from turning up at the funeral.

:D :wah: Yes i do like some but my standards are high :wah:

My own situation taught me very very quickly that it's surprising how many new 'friends' you aquire the moment your face is in the papers. That whole thing made me very cynical of that whole media world. My situation is still with me as there is alot going on behind the scenes and I get strangers contact me for a variety of reasons because of what is happening behind the scenes. Now, I am instantly suspicious of any stranger contacting me and every time, it's been for some reason that will benifit themselves. I have never been wrong once.

Jordon is a classic example of the hypocrisy in these matters.

BTW....... I love Graham Norton.:wah:

No, I don't like the ginger minger either :wah:

Sorry but the Katie and Peter show is one thing that would never be on my screen longer than the time it takes me to flip channels. Simon Cowell and The Osbornes come into that catagory as well. Along with Johnathon Woss.

Chris Martin.... James Blunt..... I loathe them

Now the Gallagher Brothers? .... RESPECT.
