The Jade Goody business: a new low for Britain?
Posted: Sat Mar 07, 2009 11:02 am
I really feel that the things happening around Jade Goody's final days may never have happened in our country before, and mark a real low point in our history. Consider these facts:
*We have a publicist making money out of his client's impending death;
*A man marrying his dying partner because money is being paid;
*A man who will continue to make money out of it after she has died (look out for highly lucrative "How I'm coping without my Jade" exclusives in celeb trash mags for ages to come);
*A criminal let out of prison to get married, and now becoming a star because of it (a man who will probably never see her sons again after she dies);
*Two children, way above the standard Christening age, getting Christened because money is being paid (by a magazine);
*The commercial sponsorship of a religous ceremony in Britain;
*A 27 year old woman (Goody) getting Christened herself (the oldest person I've ever heard of to be Christened) because money is paid (by a magazine);
*A 'charity' run, supposedly for cancer, where people without much money are asked to donate, when really ever penny is going to the Goody family;
*A woman (Goody) posing in very stage-managed photos (bald head, bare shoulders) for the covers of tabloid newspapers, because the more shocking the image the more copies it sells and the more money is made. Other people would have a hat or scarf on;
As every element of her final days is up for sale, can be sponsored, and as much money as possible is gained from all of it, why not go the whole hog and have photos taken of her in the morgue, the day after her final day, and auction them off to the highest bidder in order to make MORE CASH!! Her scumbag 'publicist' Max Clifford is probably considering this right now! Goody is said to have ?2m to her name already, and that means if it was put in a high interest account at 6%, her two children would get ?120,000 a year for life - which is a lot of money for anyone. I honestly believe we have sunk lower with all of this, if you look at what I've listed above, than we have ever sunk before as a nation. The things I've listed above are shocking! What are other people's views?
