I have to say
as much as he comes across as a gaylord who lives his life in a way to try and impress his hard-nosed northern father who used to mine coal with his bare cock...
...I have to agree with him.
One recent(ish) jade goody headline i saw was "I won't tell my kids of my pain". No? but you will tell a fucking national newspaper knowing full well that they'll splash it on the FP... free for your kids to see anyway... but at least you'll have made a cool X thousand for the exclusive deal with the paper, init.
Like I've said on here before, because of the Max Clifford connection, the cynic inside me detects a miraculous recovery in the coming year... "OMG I aint gonna die after all init.. and everyones forgotten about my shameful racist past"
ho hum.

Cynicism overload !!
I dare say, she would be lynched if she suddenly made a miraculous recovery :)

well, just imagine a PR overlord who would stoop so low to, oh i dunno... publicise fake rape allegations in the press?
oh yea, that's right... Max Clifford did just that. (ala his client's rape allegations against the Hamiltons - which turned out to be total fantasist bullshit)
Oh, but how would he know the allegations were false? Of course, he wouldn't - but that didn't stop him sending press releases claiming that it was 100% genuine - this is PR, not investigative journalism.
But anyway, would she get lynched? really??
I mean, it wouldn't be her fault if she had "battled bravely against the onset of cancer... and WON!"
And anyone who would dare to accuse her of being a fake in the mass media would be shot down in a hail of "OMG you sick, insensitive bastard" comments - let alone the wrath of Max Clifford.

Max Clifford
She probably hired him because he gets better deals from the newspapers. I don't particularly like Jade Goody, but in her shoes I'd be doing whatever I could to leave an inheritance behind as well. Yes, there might be remission on the way, but there might not. If she was lying, the medical professionals involved in her case would be implicit in the lie, that surely wouldn't be in their interest?
Although perhaps they can't speak out because of the Hippocratic oath. Hmm.
There are better causes to get angry about, I think. Certainly, being annoyed because she isn't so thin is a bit silly. The weight's going to fall off her in the next few weeks anyway.

From today's Independent (pp.5)
White doves and media deals as Goody ties knot
...Living TV, which had signed up Goody for an ongoing series prior to her diagnosis with cervical cancer in August. The cancer spread to several other parts of her body. Doctors believe she may live.
The Independent is one of the most poorly edited newspapers, in terms of frequent grammar and spelling mistakes and the like, so this may be just a typo. But what if it's not...

What I will say is...
...that at "best" i think she did/does have cervical cancer but it's nowhere near as bad as Mr Clifford has made out, it was caught early enough for effective and successful treatment, and they've simply used the opportunity, in the most cynical way imaginable, to raise her public standing after her disastrous Shilpa Shetty incident.
Baring in mind that before this her name was mud, AND the fact that she doesn't really have any other ability to make a comeback (you know, like a Britney/Take That-esque comeback single, or a Robert Downey, Jr Ironman jobbie) - it'd be worth the gamble, right?
