I thought the madness had stopped, or at least was coming to an end, but it seems I was wrong. I'm talking about the whole Jade Goody story!! First we had the papers gunning for her calling her all the names under the sun, especially with the racist bullying incident of celebrity big brother. Then when they discovered she had cancer the press made a huge u turn on the issue giving her as much press as she had ever had and as Charlie Brooker put it in his screenwipe series moving her from a "reality star" to pretty much a "star of news". As he (and private eye) pointed out the tabloids also used some quite disgusting tactics to sell their dirty red top rags where they photoshopped a picture of her with the hair removed!! These tabloid antics where complemented with a show on living, constant news channel attention and followed quickly with the glossy mags and their antics. Every week a different issue of OK, first celebrating Jade's life before she had even died, then her wedding, then her funeral after she had died and now Jade's mum Jackie is in them talking about Jade and the release of her diaries. I have also heard that a few books have been released. But I thought that the Jade media circus had reached its logical end in book form, but oh no theres more!!! Wait for it!! Theres talk of Jade's life being made into a MUSICAL!!! This is quite possibly the most ridiculous thing ever heard!! Now I've got the feeling that instead of being the end of this farce that this could just be the beginning of it! Next up the single, if tupac can realise a single after his death than I'm pretty sure Jade Goody can manage to get a single out. What about the Jade Goody action figure? A 2010 calender? Jade Goody the theme park? A Jade Goody shampoo range? The possibilities are endless.
