Jade Goody

Yesterday, OK! defended its decision to publish a special tribute issue in memory of Goody while she is still alive.<< then why did it look so FUNERALY:sick:


What exactly was their defense ??? So they paid her for exclusive rights of her death???.. so they have the right to publish WHENEVER THEY want to ?? OK magazine is getting seriously MORBID !!!!!!!!!!!
That photo of Jade was horrible.. OK should have at least waited till she was DEAD...:hmm:
Is nothing scarce ?? I would at least hope that she was able to retain some dignity...But OK magazine as made sure that her death is exposed like they would expose some one cheating on their spouse..:mad:
That PUBLICTIST is going to be raking in alot of money, being the mouth piece of the family,,,:rolleyes: Wonder how much his cut is in this Media Pie that Jade has created ???:sick:

I think OK took a big risk sending that issue to press. I do believe OK honestly thought she would have passed on by Wednesday. Max said on Sunday that Jade was in her final hours so OK immediately thought they could get in first with a world exclusive of her death. Shame she was still alive on Wednesday otherwise it would have been a success :rolleyes:

Max has a lot to answer for in all of this. He's been saying she had hours to live since last week yet she's still alive. I know death is an unpredictable thing but if what he's been saying is true then Jade should have died days ago.

I've never liked him, he's a money grabbing slime ball.

I must admit, I was rather shocked when I saw the headline. I dare say Jade will die this year, so the headline will probably be correct, but I think they should have waited until she actually passes away.

I just thought it was in BAD TASTE:sick: ..granted OK paid for the rights to use the story but still the woman has not croaked yet..dying yes but dead no....:thumbsdow

OK! magazine could reportedly face an official inquiry after publishing a tribute issue to terminally ill Jade Goody while she is still alive.

This week's edition of the glossy magazine has been marketed as 'Jade Goody Official Tribute Issue 1981-2009' and carries the tagline 'In Loving Memory'.

Speaking to Mail Online, a spokesperson for the Press Complaints Commission confirmed that the industry watchdog had received 60 complaints to date.

"Quite a few of the complaints refer to the impact of the magazine's [coverage] on Jade's family," said Stephen Abell.

"We need to discuss the matter with Jade's family to see if they want us to take the complaints forward to investigate."

Speaking to Radio 1's Newsbeat earlier this week, Goody's publicist Max Clifford admitted that the reality star's mother-in-law Mary Tweed had not been happy.

"If they've got it wrong then they should apologise for that, as I'm sure that they will because no-one has handled Jade Goody more sensitively in recent times than OK! magazine," he said.

Yesterday, OK! defended its decision to publish the issue, saying that Goody's family understood and were "extremely grateful for the support that OK! has provided during this distressing period".

Jade Goody's mother Jackiey Budden has spoken about the emotional turmoil at the reality TV star's bedside as she succumbs to terminal cancer.

Budden has been at Goody's bedside in recent days after she returned to her Essex home from hospital, The Sun reports.

Of her time spent with Goody, Budden said: "We laugh, we cry, we laugh, we cry."

Budden reportedly took a short break from looking after her daughter to visit a beauty salon for a fake tan treatment.

"I'm feeling better now I'm brown," Budden is said to have told a woman who handed her flowers on her return.

Goody's son Bobby was taken to the house to visit his mother after repeatedly questioning why he could not see her.

A family friend said: "Bobby is just old enough now to understand he doesn't have long with mummy.

"He has been asking why they are not staying at the house with her and he just wants to see his mum."

i agree, everytime i open this thread i think im gonna read that shes died yet its still hours to live etc. im not being harsh but most people when they are told only have hours to live only live a few days at most, not over a week

the whole thing is PATHETIC!!

My heart goes out to Jade and her two sons, no-one deserves to suffer from this horrible disease and I do admire Jade for having the guts to let the public see the horrendous effects Cancer has but it is now just turning into a circus and I don't know if it's jade, Jack and her mum or Mr Clifford who is milking it but it's getting to the stage that whenever we hear she's near the end we don't know if its the truth or not and you feel a complete sh*t for wishing they would shut up. Let's hope when Jade does finally pass away that Jack will go back to jail and not try and milk anymore publicity.

I doubt it's Jade feeding the media all this now. According to reports, she can't stay awake for more than a few minutes and she can't speak anymore, so it's probably someone else keeping the media circus going.

Hopefully when Jade does pass away, Jack will fade into obscurity and the media will have the sense not to follow Jade's children around as they are growing up.
