Prison release for Jack Tweed

Jack Tweed has been released from prison after serving half of his 12-week sentence for assault. The 21-year-old widower of Jade Goody was met by his mum and friends outside the Edmunds Hill Prison near Newmarket, Suffolk, shortly after 10am today, reports The Sun.

Tweed was jailed in April after being convicted of assaulting a taxi driver in Epping, Essex, last year. During sentencing, the judge admitted that his sentence would have been longer if it had not been for the "change in his personal circumstances". He is expected to visit his late wife's grave later today, after reporting for probation and meeting with his agent.

Jade's mum "visited" by Jade's ghost

Jackiey Budden has claimed that she has been "visited" by late daughter Jade Goody twice since she passed away in March. Budden said that the reality star is still communicating with her after her death. "I was laying on a sunbed outside my apartment and talking out loud, saying 'Jade, you told me to call you and I am but you don't answer' and just then the clouds started moving and from the side of one of them I saw two faces looking down on me - it was Jade, totally clearly," she told The Mirror. "She was beaming down and her hand was up as if she was waving. Her head was still bald but she looked so happy."

Budden went on to describe a second time when Goody apparently wrote a message to her on a mirror. "I was coming home one evening and noticed my bathroom window was steamed up even though I'd been out," she said. "Then I saw in the steam was written 'Light a candle for me Mum'. Now I have a candle by my front door lit every night so Jade knows I'm always thinking of her."

Did Max Clifford profit from Goody death? Not according to him...

Max Clifford has rejected claims that he personally profited from Jade Goody's death. The publicist told students at the London College of Communication that he did not benefit financially from the reality TV star's passing. Clifford said: "I did not profit from Jade's death. I did pay her medical bills when the NHS let her down. I paid for her to see my doctor.

"I did make a lot of money for her children, from which I did not take a penny. Do I feel guilty about that? Not at all, I'm very proud actually."

He added: "Jade would be the first to tell you she had no talent. She was just herself."

Last month, Clifford suggested that he would help in the casting and promotion of a stage musical based on Goody's life.

Boy George terrifies Jack Tweed in prison

Jack Tweed has reportedly been left terrified after bumping into a naked Boy George in prison. To be honest, that's enough to terrify anyone, right? The 21-year-old, who was convicted of assaulting a taxi driver on April 14, is said to have been uncomfortable on three occasions showering next to the former pop star at Edmunds Hill jail in Suffolk. "Jack isn't exactly the most comfortable person when it comes to getting attention from other men," a friend told The Sun.

"As soon as he saw Boy George was standing there naked having a wash he was gobsmacked."He grew up listening to George's records but never imagined the first time he met him he would be stark naked in a prison shower."

According to the source, Tweed has made every effort to avoid making contact with Boy George, who was sentenced to 15 months for falsely imprisoning a male escort at his London home.

"Jack knew what Boy George was in jail for and didn't want to take any chances. The first time he saw him he just turned white and legged it," the friend added.

Jade Goody: The Musical?

A friend and former business partner of Jade Goody has announced plans to create a musical based around the life of the late reality TV star. Danny Hayward told the BBC that auditions for the lead part of Goody would be announced in three weeks' time. Publicist Max Clifford said: "It's an idea that's got legs, but it's nothing definite. It's not all signed and sealed, but it's something that's likely to happen." Sigh.

Clifford added that he would help cast the lead roles and promote the musical if it went ahead because he "got very close with Jade in the last year and spent a lot of time with her". Hayward said: "Jade was just an ordinary girl and the person who plays her will reflect that. The most important thing is to give someone a break, just like she got.

"Her dream as a little girl was to be in a musical, so so obviously when she passed away it felt fitting to do something like this. It's still in its infant stages, but it's definitely going to happen."

Jack Tweed: Sentenced to jail

Jack Tweed has been sentenced to 12 weeks in prison after being convicted of assaulting a taxi driver. The 21-year-old, who married the late Jade Goody in February, was found guilty of attacking Stephen Wilkins in Epping, Essex, last year. During the sentencing this morning, Harlow Magistrates' Court chairwoman Margaret Webb said: "'We have borne in mind the recent change in your personal circumstances and have reflected this in the length of the sentence, which would otherwise have been 18 weeks."

Tweed will serve half the sentence before being released on licence and has been ordered to pay £200 compensation to Mr Wilkins and costs of £466.

Tweed's lawyer had claimed that Tweed had matured since the assault, saying: "Mr Tweed is 21. He was 20 at the time of this offence that took place 11 months ago. There has been no re-offending since that date. To say that he is a changed man since May 2008 is perhaps an understatement. He has endured with dignity and maturity very difficult personal circumstances that have been well documented."

Parky: Goody represented 'wretched' Britain

Sir Michael Parkinson has blasted the late Jade Goody, who died on Mother's Day, for representing "all that's paltry and wretched about Britain today". Writing in the Radio Times, the veteran broadcaster admitted that Goody had cemented her place in television history but claimed her achievements were "nothing to be proud of".

"Her death is as sad as the death of any young person, but it's not the passing of a martyr or a saint or, God help us, Princess Di... When we clear the media smokescreen from around her death, what we're left with is a woman who came to represent all that's paltry and wretched about Britain today," he said.

He continued: "She was brought up on a sink estate, as a child came to know both drugs and crime, was barely educated, ignorant and puerile. Then she was projected to celebrity by Big Brother and from that point on became a media chattel to be manipulated and exploited till the day she died."

Jade's funeral to be televised

Jade Goody has reportedly made arrangements for her funeral to be televised. The former Big Brother contestant has arranged for a large screen to be erected outside the church so that the service can be watched by fans.

Goody is said to have chosen an oak coffin from the Royal Windsor Forest and wants to be taken in a convoy of seven cars from her home to the St. John The Baptist Church in Buckhurst Hill, according to Metro.

The convoy will rumouredly include a Daimler used by the late Queen Mother, and a Rolls-Royce used by the Sultan of Brunei. She has also chosen celebrity undertakers F. A. Albin & Sons from ITV1 documentary Don't Drop The Coffin and selected the hymn 'All Things Bright And Beautiful'.

According to The Sun, nurses have told husband Jack Tweed and mother Jackiey Budden that Goody "will probably not wake up" the next time she falls into a deep sleep. "It's over. Jade barely has the strength to talk. She will occasionally weep, but is too frail now to even squeeze her mum’s hand," a source said. "The nurses talk to her quietly and do what they can to control the pain. Her disease has been so cruel to her - and for everyone who loves her, we just want her suffering to stop."

Max Clifford: 'Enough is enough' for Jade

Max Clifford has said that he believes Jade Goody has done enough to get her message to the public. The publicist told TalkSport radio that he was "instinctively" uneasy regarding the media attention surrounding Goody as she continues her battle with terminal cancer.

Clifford said: "My attitude to Jade in recent times is, 'Don't you think enough is enough? Don't you think you've got the message out there? The money that you wanted for the boys we've done, we've made, it's in place, the money is assured.'

"Jade likes and enjoys the media spotlight. But if she continues to be in the kind of pain and condition she is in, then my advice increasingly will be, 'Don't you think enough is enough?'"

He added that Goody told him she was "absolutely" happy to have photographers take pictures of her when she left the Chelsea and Westminster hospital. Earlier this week, Clifford confirmed that Goody had only done four interviews in the last month and that he was continuing to give updates on her condition because the public "want to know".

Jade: Ready for heaven

Jade Goody has said that she is ready to die and go to heaven now that she has married her husband Jack Tweed. Presuming that she will go to heaven that is. The former reality TV contestant married Tweed at Down Hall Country House on Sunday, just over a week after becoming engaged on Valentine's Day.

Goody told OK!: "I've had the happiest day of my life, now I'm ready to go to heaven." The day after the wedding, a family friend told The Sun: "She could not get out of bed. She doesn't mind though. She had her dream wedding day and was the happiest bride in the world."

Her publicist Max Clifford added: "She was emotional and exhausted. It is possible she and Jack have just spent their only night together." Goody's mother Jackiey Budden agreed that the wedding day was "fantastic" but said it had worn out her daughter.

The reality TV star recently said that, despite her marriage, she still wants to be remembered as "Jade Goody", with that name inscribed on her headstone.

Jade Goody to marry this weekend

Jade Goody will marry her boyfriend Jack Tweed this Sunday, her publicist has confirmed. The former Big Brother star will hold the ceremony at Down Hall country house in Hertfordshire, despite originally planning to have it at the Victorian Chapel in the Royal Marsden Hospital.

"I am going to die in this hospital, so I don't want to get married here," she recently told The Sun. "But wherever we tie the knot, I'm determined to walk down that aisle." Goody was proposed to on Valentine's Day after being told that her cancer is terminal and that she has just months to live.

Harrods owner Mohammed Al Fayed has gifted her a designer wedding dress while Sir Elton John offered her the use of one of his homes for the wedding. Jonathan Ross, Simon Cowell and Dale Winton have all sent messages of support. It is understood that the star is seeking a £3 million magazine deal for the event, which will go towards the trust fund that has been set up for her two young sons.

Jade Goody's plight worsens with news from doctors

It's with a heavy heart that we tell you that doctors have told Jade Goody that her chances of beating cancer have reduced.

The former Big Brother contestant, who has had a tough couple of years, has admitted that she has a 40% chance of beating the disease.

"I have down times when I cry and cry. I’ve only got a 40% chance of living. But I won’t let go," she told The Sun.

The star recently started losing her hair following sessions of chemotherapy treatment. Describing the moment her hair started falling out, she added: "I screamed until my mum came running. When she saw the hair on the floor, she cuddled me and rubbed my head like when I was a baby.

"Handfuls more peeled off in her hands. It was awful."

The star was diagnosed with cancer while appearing on the Indian Big Brother in August 2008.

Jade Goody cuts hair

Jade Goody, who is suffering from cervical cancer, has cut her hair ahead of her year long chemo and radiotherapy treatment.

Jade Goody has cut her hair ahead of her year long chemo and radiotherapy treatment.

The former 'Celebrity Big Brother' contestant - who has two sons, Bobby, five, and Freddie, three, with former partner Jeff Brazier - decided to go for the drastic restyle after doctors told her it was likely she would lose her hair after going through the gruelling year-long treatment.

The 27-year-old beauty concealed her new cut underneath a white headscarf as she visited a friend in Essex yesterday (05.10.08).

A source close to the star recently revealed she was terrified of losing her hair, adding: "This is not her worst nightmare - that would be dying and leaving her children. But it comes pretty close. She had hoped that she would not lose all her hair.

"But now she has been told that she will definitely lose it all because the chemo will be much stronger. She's really, really upset."

Jade learned she was suffering from cancer while starring in an Indian version of 'Big Brother' in August.

Jade Goody ends romance with toy boy Jack Tweed

They're the Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton for the Big Brother generation with their on again, off again relationship, but things have ended for Jade Goody and her toy boy Jack Tweed. For good or until one of them gets a bit lonely one night and calls the other in floods of tears begging for another chance. So what went wrong between the pair this time?

According to reports, the trust has gone. Oh, that old chestnut. That's what endless media rumours about infidelity (Jack's) will do to a couple. Jade is said to have done the dumping, but is crushed that the two and a half year romance has stalled once again.

"Jade is devastated, and she's been in floods of tears," a friend of the reality star told the Sunday Mirror. "But now she realises she's got to be strong and move on with her life."

In an interview with More magazine, Jade admitted how confused her feelings were towards Jack. "I felt more like his mother than his girlfriend. But when I wasn't with him, I wanted to be. It was easy to get back with him, but I'm still waiting for more stories to come out from girls saying he's cheated."

Sounds like a classic case of can't live with but can't live without for Jack and Jade. How long until she takes him back? Take your bets now.

Jade Goody turns brawler on night out

Since her career-killing appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, Jade Goody has kept quite a low public profile. That was until Easter Sunday, when the reality star stepped out for a night on the town and ended up in a nasty brawl. Could she not have stayed in and gorged herself on chocolate Easter eggs like everyone else?

Jade had been partying at an Essex night spot in a celebrity group that contained A-list heavyweights like fellow Big Brother contestant Chantelle Houghton and Charlotte Mears (ex lady friend of Portsmouth footballer Jermain Defoe) when the trouble kicked off. The TV star, known for her volatile temper, allegedly fought with another clubber, only to continue the scuffle with a security guard.

An onlooker claimed Jade was asked to leave, but her PR team has swiftly swung into action to defend her, arguing that she "left of her own volition." Her spokesperson added: "Jade was a victim of an unprovoked attack by another girl. She tried to defend herself and was not asked to leave by the club."

So who do you believe Star Trippers? The onlooker with no obvious agenda or the renowned and exposed aggressive bully? Oh Jade, looks like you might want to sign up for some more anger management classes.

Weekend roundup-Kate likes to party and Jade is now thin..again

So what's been going on in the world of celebsville while you've been catching up on your beauty sleep? Shame on you for not paying more attention, but luckily you have us to keep your eye on the celeb pulse.

-The grimness that is Pete Doherty may be soon to be a father. Fresh faced 20 year old Laura Mclaughlin, Alex Fergusosn's god daughter says she lost her virginity to the Doherty and is now preggers. Ewww. I don't like to think what that porno flick is going to look like. The charming little lass told News of the World this story before she told dear Mum and dad.. that must have made great brekkie reading. Laura says about Pete, "His apathy has been traumatic for me. I wanted the baby to be as big a deal to him as it was to me. But it wasn't. One minute he is excited and telling me, ‘How good-looking is our baby going to be?' the next minute he's saying, ‘You deal with it'." [D-Listed ]

-Meanwhile while Doherty was issuing denials left right and center, his ex and sex goddess Kate Moss was reportedly involved in an all night orgy at her birthday party. the star, seen in a sexy star printed dress got down and dirty with two female models and a man to the sound of her boyfriends album. Ooh la la. Add to this just a large helping of the white stuff and it sounds like an exciting night. [Perez Hilton ]

-Jade Goody has worked off that kebab belly again, shedding 3 dress sizes and a tone in weight at an intensive 2 week bootcamp. "On my third day I burst into tears while abseiling and said I couldn't carry on. But everyone cheered me on and I ended up loving it so much I stayed for two weeks."
[Digital Spy ]

-Could Britney have dumped er brand new boyfriend, Adnan, already? We  doubt it. She hasn't spoken to him for like two days, that's' not over by any means. Adnan says, “All I can say is that I have not been in contact with Britney since early Friday morning. The reason being, that I have had to attend a family funeral in Santa Barbara.”[MTV ]

Jade Goody and Jack Tweed back together again

Jade Goody and ex-boyfriend Jack Tweed have rekindled their romance, with the newly loved up pair spotted getting amorous twice this past week. Jack and Jade’s recent split saw the loudmouthed reality TV star hook up with David Wickenden, but according to friends this dalliance is now over. The reunited couple was spotted kissing and cuddling in Funky Buddha on Tuesday and NU Bar two days later. But after calling older woman Jade ‘cash point’, how serious is this hook-up?

A source reveals: “It is very early days but Jade and Jack were together for a long time before they split and they have always had a strong, deep attachment. Jade hasn't cheated on David at all-it's just that Jack is her soul mate. Jack's made promises before, but he really has vowed to get a job and said that he will stop sponging off Jade this time." Another friend added "Jade and Jack have just really missed each other. They're not the same when they're not together. Jack wants to make things work this time." Aw – ain't love grand?

Jade Goody's handbag is stolen from her unlocked car

We've all seen the warning notices informing us of the risks of leaving our valuables unattended in cars, especially when in plain sight for thieves to steal. So we make sure we take our things with us, or hide them from view and we most definitely make sure we lock the car door. Don’t we Jade Goody? Well, apparently not as the Big Brother loud mouth has had her handbag (itself worth £1,000 and with £400 cash inside) snatched from her Range Rover – but what do you expect when you leave it unlocked?

Yes, the door was unlocked and the swanky handbag, also containing her house keys, photos of her children and her make-up was taken when she was on the school run. A friend has revealed: “She knows she was stupid but she’s absolutely devastated about losing the pictures.” This incident comes after her house was burgled a fortnight ago. She sure must be getting familiar with her insurance folk.

Jade Goody's house is burgled

Jade Goody has been burgled. Letting agents found a window had been smashed at the reality TV star’s £500,000 house in Chipping Ongar, Essex and now she fears she might have lost valuables worth up to £30,000 in the raid. Of course this being Jade, she’s not quite sure what was taken, though the house is believed to have been packed with widescreen televisions and other such high-tech goodies. On being questioned by the police on what exactly had been stolen, she wailed "I've been f****ing burgled!" before storming out.

Essex Police confirmed: "We received a report of a potential burglary at Miss Goody's address at 11:09 this morning. Officers were dispatched to the address and it is has now been confirmed as a burglary. Crime officers are now examining the scene." Just to add to Jade’s woes, the examining officers found that the tax disc on her Audi had expired back in August and she quickly raced off to buy a new one. Stealing from Jade – like taking candy from a baby? Or maybe even easier.

Jade Goody rekindles old romance

She’s only been on the market for about half an hour, but Big Brother ‘star’ Jade Goody has already bagged herself a new man. Can she not be alone for more than five minutes? The lucky fella is ex David Wickenden, a city trader (really?) and according to friends, the couple has been enjoying a number of dates in the past few weeks.

One of David’s chums obviously fancied a little pocket money and so has been talking to the press: 'They've been meeting regularly since she split from Jack. They dated for a while a couple of years ago and, despite it not working out, they kept in touch. He thinks she's really sexy and great fun.' [Insert own joke here.]

Jade Goody starts new career in permanent make-up

Her salon ‘Ugly’ might have flopped, but Jade Goody is determined to help people enhance their bodies. The Big Brother star is reported to have invested £100,000 of her money into a new venture as a ‘permanent make-up artist.’ No, this doesn’t mean that she once she’s shoveled on the blue eye-shadow that it’s there for life, but is a somewhat misleading and jumped-up name for a type of tattooist. Apparently Simon Cowell puppet Sinitta has also trained in this field recently. Well if they like it - it must be good.

Jade is in the early stages of her beauty career and in the pic is practicing her needle work on plastic. Once she has mastered this (which may take some time), she advances to pig skin and then finally human skin. The idea of entrusting Jade with a sharp needle anywhere near your body makes me shiver and run for cover, but maybe she’ll have more success second time around. After all – her second stint on BB turned out so well for her.

Jade Goody splits with boyfriend Jack Tweedy

It’s all over for Jade Goody and her toy-boy Jack Tweed, with reports that the couple has called it quits after a tempestuous two years together. They had only just moved into a £750,000 barn house two weeks ago, but after the infidelities, miscarriage and Jade’s nosedive in popularity – the strain was too much.

       

The showdown kicked off on Monday night, when 20-year-old Jack turned up on his mum’s doorstep without having packed any of his things. Eek – I’ll bet that break-up witnessed its fair share of hysterical wailing and crockery smashing, that Jack’s a real firecracker.

A chum blabbed: “They have been growing apart for months. The miscarriage hit them incredibly hard and the age gap has caused problems. Jack is devastated and Jade is inconsolable but both accept they don’t have a future together.”

      

Maybe it was the ratty blonde hair extensions that spelt the end. You never know.

Top 5 Worst Celebrity Mums: The stars who should never have been allowed to procreate

My mum is tops, and like a good daughter I am suitably adoring. But I know others aren’t so lucky and have to struggle on as best they can by themselves. Some women are just not naturally maternal and as such can find motherhood a struggle. But celebrities excel at everything, don’t they? If they can sell out concerts in minutes, win Oscars and pen best-sellers and all the while look radiant and flawless, then surely they must make perfect parents? We bring you the top 5 most questionable showbiz mums, and honestly it was hard limiting it to five (Britney didn't even make the list!)

                     

Number 1: Kate Moss

                              

Yes, Kate Moss has a child. A four year old girl in fact, called Lila Grace who lives with her. Kate is one of the world’s most photographed women, constantly makes headlines internationally and yet her daughter remains mysteriously mysterious. On the one hand, this could be due to Moss protecting her precious infant from the intrusive media glare, but on the other it could be that she’s been too busy getting high, ‘designing’ Top Shop clothes and dating Pete Doherty to notice that crying bundle in the corner (I suspect the latter.) With a mum known for drugs, sleeping around and looking like a gaunt tramp, we should book Lila Grace her spell in rehab now.

                                 

Number 2: Whitney Houston

                  

Cocaine Kate is a junkie novice when it comes to Whitney. The ex Mrs Bobby Brown is mummy to 14 year old daughter Bobbi Kristina Houston Brown, but her parenting duties never held her back when it came to her partying ways. Her own sister even sold a picture to the National Enquirer of her bathroom cluttered with drugs. But it’s not just the drugs. Whitney has a rumoured eating disorder, has sold off her own clothes to stave off bankruptcy and was being sued by her own father when he died in 2002. She has undergone rehab, with many fans hoping that with her recent divorce from bad influence husband Bobby Brown, she can finally sort herself out. News that she is now dating infamous sex-tape star Ray-J rains on that parade.

                     

Number 3: Dina Lohan

                         

The fact that I have even heard of Lindsay Lohan’s mum says it all. The ultimate ‘pushy mum’, Dina is an attention-seeker, happy to ride the coat-tails of her famous daughter to achieve her own fame. She has indulged and even benefitted from Lindsay’s much-publicized addiction problems and has used the media as a tool in her war against her former husband and Lindsay’s jailbird father Michael. In Hollywood she has surreptitiously campaigned to earn a spot as one of the presenters on US talkshow ‘The View’ and is now in talks to do a reality show tentatively called ‘Mom-ager.’ This programme will follow Dina as she tries to turn Lindsay's younger siblings — Ali, 13, and Cody, 11 — into stars. Well, the first child turned out so well, so why not?

                      

Number 4: Courtney Love

Courtney had a troubled childhood and having learned from the experience, seems to have successfully provided her own daughter with one as well. Love is most famous for being the widow of Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, a marriage which spawned their now 16 year old daughter Frances Bean Cobain. Yes – shit name, even worse mum. Vanity Fair alleged in 1992 that Love continued to shoot-up during the early stages of her pregnancy (she denies it) and as a result the couple were investigtaed by Child Welfare Services and the girl removed from their custody for a period. Love has been on and off the drugs over the years and as such in and out of rehab. She’s had run-ins with the law and after experiments in plastic surgery and extreme weight-loss, even looks like a complete mess.

Number 5: Jade Goody

I’m not one to kick when someone’s already down, but I have never been a fan of Jade Goody and so feel entitled to weazle her out as a bad showbiz mum. Goody has two sons, Bobby Jack and Freddie, from her rocky (violent) relationship with fellow reality TV star Jeff Brazier. Jade has not only endured public wrath over her apparent racism towards Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty, but also had her collar felt by the Police. She was arrested on suspicion of stealing a jacket from Asda, apparently punched a grandmother and was recently found guilty of two counts of driving without a licence and driving with no insurance, receiving a 6 month driving ban. All this and she can’t tell her left from her right – good luck kids, you’re going to need it.

Posh parents vs. Jade

Not everyone has fallen out of love with Jade Goody. 'The Sun' has come out in support of the Big Brother star with news that she might have another fight on her hands. This time it is not a racial issue but a class one, with Goody having caused a mighty ruckus with plans to send her son to a posh private school. Parents of children attending Oaklands School in Loughton, Essex are said to be considering a petition to keep Goody from enrolling her 4 year old son Bobby Jack at the school as she is too “common”.

                                        

One mum has supposedly gone on the record as saying “There is a backlash against the head’s decision to offer Bobby Jack a place from September. Parents have seen her and asked her to reconsider because they think Jade Goody will lower the tone and spell trouble. One mum has threatened to pull her child out and others are talking about a petition — feelings are running that high.”

                                 

'The Sun' is clearly backing Goody, described the petitioning parents as “snooty” and “snobby” and making a point of mentioning that the parents “drive expensive 4x4s and (their) boys wear smart green blazers and ties.” Not all of the mothers have been in opposition to Jade, with one parent adding that “Jade might have her failings but her son is only four, after all. They will fit in well.”

                           

The fact that Jade does not live in the area or the rumour that she plans to have a magazine cover her son’s first day at the school were mentioned fleetingly. One mother expressed understandable concern: “Oaklands is a discreet school and parents don’t like the thought that their kids will be forced to appear in a magazine next to Jade’s. What will be next — paparazzi sitting outside every day?” Regardless of the class debate and Jade’s reputation – who could possibly deem this invasion of children’s privacy worth supporting?

Jade Goody displays her lack of grey matter

Well what can you really say of someone who has made a career out of being renown for her thickness? Staying true to stereotype or dreadfully typecast? She does herself no favours on the weakest link.

-Nothing gets the royal knickers all knotted up like gossip about Prince William and Kate Middleton, who reportedly are 'cosying up again'.

Jade now knows that "Pakastani people aren't from India"

Despite Jade's "personal trip" to India, it seems that the masses still aren't buying her, "No really! I'm not racist!" act. Apparently Jade's brilliant idea to be photographed while wearing a sari for a leading British Asian magazine, was vetoed. The magazine's editor-in-chief, Shihab Salim, said: "The option of doing a photoshoot with her in a sari was flatly rejected. But our decision to run the story was sealed when she came back with priceless quotes such as 'I now know to tell my kids Pakistani people are not from India'.” Good, Jade! You're learning. Pakastani people aren't from India. Just like the Dutch aren't from Dutchland.

Scarlett's visit to India puts Jade to shame...

As we all know, Jade is in India on a "private trip". Jade claims that, "This was not a publicity stunt. Nobody knew I was coming out here". However, Jade called a press conference at her luxury base in New Delhi to announce that she was donating £25,000 from her Big Brother paycheck to underprivelaged children as she "don't want the money. It's dirty money because it caused a lot of pain to a lot of people". But don't worry! It's not to better her image, "I am not giving the money to improve my image. Course not. Thought never crossed our minds." See?

However, while Jade is busy writing checks from her hotel room in New Delhi, Scarlett Johansson didn't go to the Oscars, and went to visit the children at an Oxfam-funded school in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Scarlett was quite taken by a little girl who woke up at 3am every day to do her chores before she walked to school, "She was an amazing, bright young girl, full of ambition...Her self-pride and drive to succeed was an obvious outcome from her schooling." Before returning to Hollywood, Scarlett also travelled to Sri Lanka where the charity is helping to rebuild life following the 2004 tsunami. Maybe Jade should take a few pointers from Scarlett...

Jade goes to India

Jade Goody is currently taking a "self-funded, private" trip to India, sans her 12 19 year old boyfriend, and two sons. Jade is hiding staying in a £190 per night club room at the Le Meridien Hotel in Delhi, and claims that, ""Yeah, yeah, people are being so nice." What cracks me up is that Jade and her publicist are really pushing the fact that Jade is paying for this herself, and that the trip is "not in association with any newspapers or magazines". Well, obviously, considering who the hell would want to associate their business or publication with sending Jade Goody to India?? Perhaps my favorite quote from Jade about her trip would be: "I like the food here, everyone knows I love an Indian!" Really? Could have fooled me.

Jade Goody dropped from Comic Relief

Star Trip fave Jade Goody, aka the thick racist gobshite, has been edited from the BBC's forthcoming Comic Relief charity fundraising evening, to be broadcast 16 March.

The official verdict, from the mouth of the Beeb, is that her segment was filmed so many moons ago that it's now out of date. Their statement is below the jump. What I really want to know is this: how many people believe the official version? Why film segments so far in advance that they have a chance of becoming out of date? Doesn't seem rational to me.

Of course, it could all be a not so cunning smokescreen they've erected to defend their decision to disassociate themselves with Ms Goody following a race row, an international relations furore, and a stint in rehab. Y'know?

According to BBC News: "Organisers had filmed a Question of Sport spoof in which Goody appeared with comics Jack Dee and Frank Skinner. But they have decided to drop the sketch from BBC One's Red Nose Night charity telethon on 16 March. A Comic Relief spokesman said the sketch felt 'out of date' and they were concerned it could detract attention from the fundraising.

'Recent events have overtaken us and the show, which was recorded last November, now feels out of date,' the spokesman said. 'Red Nose Day is all about raising money and anything that could potentially detract from this is not helpful.'"

So, these two racist celebrities walk into a bar...

Apparently, Jade Goody and Danielle Lloyd ran into each other this past weekend at the Nu Bar in Essex. This was their first meeting since their pathetic antics on Celebrity Big Brother, and apparently, it didn't go too well. It's reported that Jade flipped out at Danielle,started doing the angry "Jade Finger Jab" and went on screaming that Danielle left Jade to catch most of the flack for their controversial behavior towards Shilpa Shetty. Supposedly, Jade also told Danielle that she only cared about repairing her relationship with Teddy, and dodged her responsibilities by skirting off to Dubai after leaving the BB house. See? Rehab did Jade so well! So well, that she's checked back into The Priory rehab center. That girl needs yoga. (Or sedatives.)

Unfortunately, Jade did not beat the hell out of Danielle. I would have loved to have seen that. I bet that Jade would have smashed a Stella pint glass over Danielle's Botox filled head while screaming, "You're A LIAR! YOU'RE A LIAR! YOU'RE NO PRINCESS 'ROUND 'ERE!!!"

Racist? Go to rehab!

Okay. I've had enough. I'm tired of celebrities opening their big, fat mouth, saying something racist or prejudiced, and then entering rehab. I'm also sick of celebrities saying they'd like to "meet with the leaders" of the social group they have insulted. Mel Gibson's done it.  And now, Isaiah Washington has done both. He said he'd like to meet with the leaders of the gay community, and is currently in rehab. Rehab? How about getting fired, and facing actual consequences?

Now Jade is even going to rehab for "depression and stress" after realizing that she's the most hated person in Britain. While Jade is financially feeling the repercussions of her actions, she still accepted an invitation to go to India. Why? Does she think she'll make it better by pulling a publicity stunt? Why can't people just shut up, apologize, and just quietly go to get help? This "I'm going to rehab" crap is just old. Everyone's going to rehab. Get a therapist and just shut up! Why not just apologize, and take care of business?

Jade vs Chantelle in the Mastermind chair

With Celebrity Big Brother set to reach its climax on Sunday in the live final, it's worth having a look at two of BB's most notorious housemates going head-to-head. Chantelle Houghton won the nation's hearts by being the only non-celebrity in the BB house, and recently, Jade was much loved until her bullying and apparent racism. Well, if they went to battle in Mastermind, who would win?

Harper Collins drops paperback plans of Jade's autobiography

And the hits just keep on coming. Harper Collins have decided to ditch plans to release Jade Goody's autobiography in paperback because of her behavior on Big Brother. Despite the hardback edition making over £1million, Harper Collins said that moving forward with the paperback publications would be "inappropriate". Stores such as Boots, Debenhams, and the Perfume Shop have all taken Jade's perfume "Shh..." off of their shelves. Jade has even been dropped from the Act Against Bullying Campaign and from LIVINGtv, who produced the TV shows Just Jade, and Jade's PA. I almost feel a little bad for her...almost.

Jade has Indian government in a dilemma

Jade Goody apparently accepted an "official" invitation to visit India, and now has the Indian government in a bit of a dilemma. Ambika Soni, the ministry of tourism in India, is looking for an explanation from the tourism office in London and Ireland as to why they issued an advertisement inviting Jade to India. A senior congressman says that, ""How can the tourism office invite a person against whom our foreign office had expressed disapproval?"

Other government officials are also unhappy with this supposed "invite" saying that, "Goody is not a star who will attract welcoming crowds...people will be hostile." There are some in the tourism ministry that don't see the problem, and say that "everyone is welcome". However, the Indian government is still unwilling to provide the necessary protection for Goody, and say that she doesn't deserve "special treatment." And really, do you blame them?

Jade's publicist says she was 'manipulated' by Big Brother

Okay. I'm sick of seeing, thinking, hearing, and writing about Jade Goody. However, she's "news worthy" I suppose. The latest with Jade is that she's apparently seeking treatment for "shock and depression". As expected, her publicist, John Noel, is jumping through hoops and rings of fire to better the situation. He's a publicist, that's what they do. However, I find Noel's take on Jade's situation hilarious. John Noel says not only is Jade a "victim of bullying herself at the hands of the media" but that,

"Jade has had the courage to say sorry, to face her critics and to try to make amends... but certain factions in the media will not be happy without blood. Aren't they doing to Jade what Jade is accused of doing? The question is whether she can turn it around and convince people that she was being manipulated by the programme, which was undoubtedly the case. Can she do it? Yes, but it is going to be difficult."

Undoubtedly the case? Bwahahahahah.

Jade tries to make nice with Shilpa

Call me cynical and cold, but I think that Jade's apology to Shilpa was a load of crap. Yesterday Jade pulled Shilpa aside and hugged and apologized for the whole Oxo cube incident. Jade said, "I know that what has happened has not been nice for you... and a lot of stuff got said the other day from you and from myself...I was angry of the fact that I'd let you make me get so angry over a cube!"

Oh. Okay, Jade. That makes it better. Jade also explained that even though she called Shilpa a "Shilpa Poppodom" she didn't mean it in a "racial way". So, how would you call someone a "Poppodom" but not in a racial way? Shilpa just hugged Jade back and said that she didn't think Jade was racist. I still think her apology is full of crap, as she just wants to look better, "play the game", and not get evicted. Jade's apologizing for her own benefit; not to make nice with Shilpa.

Jade and Shilpa up for eviction

Tonight is the night! Shilpa and Jade are both up for eviction! How interesting this will be. Gee, who wants to bet Jade gets evicted? I certainly hope Channel 4 has a plan on how to sneak her out of the house so she won't get stoned or mobbed to death. Channel 4 announced that it will donate a portion of tonight's voting profits charity. The money will be split up equally between the house mates, and then donated to charities of their choice. While that sounds peachy, only a fifth of the profits will go to charity, and Channel 4 is still expected to make £2million tonight. But, after Carphone Warehouse has suspended its sponsorship of the station, it can use all the help it can get.

Don't forget to vote!

This clip is priceless. I just want to play it over, and over, and over again. Not only does Shilpa tell Jade to "shut up" multiple times, but yells,"Your only claim to fame is THIS. Good for you!" Bwahahahahah! I love it. Shilpa definitely exaggerated when she said "That's the only thing I ordered!" However, she did take it back, and yet Jade still goes off like a crazed bull. Enjoy!

Watch the BB girls lie and talk trash

I've come to the conclusion that Danielle Lloyd is just an two faced, lying, nasty girl. I already knew Jade Goody was a lost cause, but the way Danielle and Jo O'Meara have been following Jade's lead is pathetic. This really does give an inside look of what some girls can unfortunately be like behind their "sister's" back. This first clip is of Danielle, Jo, and Jade lying around on their asses complaining about Shilpa not cooking them dinner at the appropriate time, and saying that it looks "gross". The nerve and mean nature of these "celebrities" is truly ghastly.

After seeing how nasty Danielle is about Shilpa's cooking; watch how Danielle calls Shilpa a "dog" and then, less than three minutes later, says she's "truly grateful" that Shilpa cooks for her. I also love how Danielle calls her "such a nice and beautiful girl". Somehow "dog" and "beautiful girl" don't seem to quite match up. I'm really wondering how Channel 4 doesn't think Shilpa's being bullied.

BB viewers outraged by "racial abuse"

The complaints of "racial abuse" towards Shilpa Shetty in the Big Brother house have reached over 20,000. 7,600 of those complaints were made to Osfom on Tuesday evening, alone. Channel 4 has recently received an petition signed by 10,000 viewers, along with over 2,000 phone call and email complaints. One concerned viewer has even gone to the police.

However, Channel 4 is sticking to their statement of "we take this matter very seriously and Big Brother does not tolerate bullying or racist abuse in any form." From what I've seen, Channel 4 has a higher tolerance for "bullying" than most, and obviously, quite a bit of their viewers. At least The Act Against Bullying charity has dropped Jade Goody as its patron...and who knows what will happen to her once she leaves the protection of the Big Brother house.

Watch the drama unfold between Shilpa, Jade, and Danielle. It's rather annoying to hear them all gab and shriek at each other like seagulls fighting over the last crumb of bread. However, it's entertaining, nonetheless.

And here is a little gem with Jackiey Goody claiming she can't pronounce Shilpa's name correctly and claims it's "not her fault". Enjoy the pointless argument, and revel in the fact that Jackiey is out of the house.

Is Jade the cause for poor BB ratings?

The ratings fro Channel 4's Celebrity Big Brother are at an all time low. From 7.1 million viewers on the first night, to a low 2.8 million this Saturday, it seems the Big Brother viewers only account for 11.9 per cent of the total audience share. Jade Goody's reappearance in the BB house was supposed to be Channel 4's master plan for achieving high ratings, however, Goody has already caused 3 cast members to voluntarily leave the house.

William HIll's spokesperson says, "Jade is supposed to be this year's Chantelle-style gimmick but having her in the house has backfired horribly." Although Channel 4 claims there's still a "large interest" in the house, we beg to differ. I think everyone, especially Jermaine, is tired of her loud mouthed antics.

Jade may have had liposuction

Rumour has it that Jade Goody's new, slimmer figure is not all thanks to her workout DVD. The Metro and The Sun have both reported a source close to Jade as saying that her weight loss is mostly due to liposuction. Apparently she spent over £4,000 in plastic surgery at a clinic in Leicester. The clinic refused to comment, and since Jade is back in the Big Brother house, her publicist cannot contact her for a comment. I don't personally care what Jade does. No matter how much surgery she has done, or doesn't have done, she will still talk and act the same. Isn't that why everyone just loves her to bits, anyway?

Top Ten Stories - Keith Urban Is An Alkie, & Madonna Is A Cradle-Snatcher

Good news ladies, Harry Potter, ahem, Daniel Radcliffe, is single. And going to be performing NUDE onstage next summer. Try to curb your enthusiasm, there.
Country crooner Keith Urban has quietly checked into rehab for alcohol abuse, whilst wife Nicole Kidman still manages to get some action with fellow rehab-fan, Robert Downey Jr.
Sharon Osbourne declares that fat is the new black, as she's set to remove her gastric band later this year.
The father of the year old Malawian orphan that Madonna has recently adopted is now claiming he didn't consent to him being adopted, that he thought they would only look after him for awhile. More likely he heard her latest album and couldn't surrender his child to such future horrors.
Jade Goody, forever having problems with the numerous men in her life, reportedly punched boyfriend Jack on Saturday night, splitting his lip.
Lindsay Lohan is a dirty, dirty bitch. But a considerate one, at that, as she left dozens of designer clothes behind when she recently moved out of the hotel she called home.
The Arctic Monkeys are set to write an autobiography based on their stardom, to be due before Christmas.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are set to get married in Italy next month, no doubt due to the lovely scenery there, and not all the hot male action. Ahem.
Predictably, Michael Barrymore's comeback attempt has failed, possibly due to the fact he's playing 'Scrooge' in A Christmas Carol, hitting more than slightly close to home.

Jade Goody fights with boyfriend Jack... AGAIN...

Like clockwork, Jade has had another public row with her bloke Jack Tweedy, after running into a glamour model who recently claimed to have had a "seedy romp" with him. That's The Sun's words, obviously, I don't think the model described it as seedy, or a romp. Anyway, Anna Houghton, who the paper helpfully mentions is 32F and blonde, enraged Jade by standing next to the couple.

"Jade obviously went mad," a witness tells the paper. "She was cursing and swearing. Then Jade started accusing Jack of deliberately inviting Anna to make her jealous." And a fun night was had by all.

Jade Goody Wants To Go To University

Sometimes they make it too easy... Reality TV's Jade Goody has said that she wants to go to university, in a move that will shock and stun people who have listened to her speak for more than a few minutes.  Relax though, she's not revealing a previously hidden desire to sit up late drinking tea and discussing the works of Sartre - she simply feels she's missed out on an opportunity to binge-drink without being judged.

She told Now magazine: "I'd like to go to university. I think I'd have liked it because everyone seems to have a great time drinking."  Jade, you're a celeb.  You don't have to work a nine-to-five, you can tip Bacardi Breezers down your neck until your skin turns green, and you're positively encouraged to fall about like a moron.  You've got all the good aspects of student life, and you don't have to share a grotty flat with some git who gets stoned watching Bo Selecta and quoting the catchphrases 24/7.  Trust me love, you're missing out on nothing.  [Toni Kelly]

Tsk. Jade Goody parks where she shouldn't

Alanis Morisette would have a field day with the irony on display yesterday at Romford's Next Generation gym. On the day that the news was full of stories about people leaving their cars in disabled parking spaces when they shouldn't, reality TV star Jade Goody was snapped by The Sun, yes, parking in a disabled bay. And no, geographical confusion about East Angular doesn't qualify you.

During her gym session, Jade's car was slapped with 'disabled only' warning notices, but when she came out she simply peeled 'em off and drove away saying "Thank f*** they haven't clamped me this time!". If there aren't 17 clamping firms hovering in the vicinity every day from now on, I'll eat my hat. [Stuart Dredge]

Jade Goody Caught Texting Whilst Driving.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. As most of the populace know, driving and using your mobile phone at the same became illegal quite some time ago. However, it seems that someone forgot to tell magazine favourite/class idiot Jade Goody. The not-to-bright-one is pictured in this week's heat magazine driving back from the T4 On The Beach gig, and she's got her mobile phone in hand.

The magazine claims Jade was caught sending a text message whilst speeding along at 50mph in the drivers seat. She can probably afford the £1,000 fine, but it's not setting a very good example, is it? (I, of course, never touch my mobile phone when I'm behind the wheel. Ahem.) [Toni Kelly]

Jade Goody's Aroma Gives David Beckham a Stinker

Poor Becks. If throwing up a couple of times while playing against Ecuador wasn't enough, he's now got something else to feel nauseous about. Apparently his Instinct perfume has been outsold 4-to-1 this week by Jade Goody's new Shh.. fragrance, which has shifted 1,000 bottles in just seven days. Jade stands to make around a million quid from the perfume, which should enable her to follow Becks' example and trade up to a huge mansion on the outskirts of Harlow. Which is enough to make anyone feel queasy... [Stuart Dredge]

Jade Goody snubs Jack for BB's sleazy Sezer

This sounds like the plot of a comedy sketch, but the Mirror's 3am Girls say it's true, so who am I to disagree with them. Apparently Jade Goody caused a rumpus at the party to promote her new perfume, flirting openly with Big Brother evictee Sezer Yurtseven and ending up in a fragrant fight with boyfriend Jack Tweedy. 3am's description is worth quoting in full:

"Jack had to work hard to keep Jade's attention and started doing Michael Jackson's moonwalk to impress her. However she was still only interested in Sezer and they started doing the John Travolta and Uma Thurman moves from Pulp Fiction together."

Marvellous stuff, it's like something out of a musical. The night ended with Jade squirting her own perfume into Jack's face as part of a row - presumably while a Broadway chorus danced around them belting out a number from West Side Story. That'd be the West Side of Harlow, obviously. [Stuart Dredge]

Tales from the tabloids: Is it safer to text-message or smoke crack at 50mph?

Plenty of gossip in today's tabloids - some of it's even nothing to do with the World Cup...

• Jade Goody is snapped text messaging while driving at 50mph, risking a £1,000 fine (oh, and a horrible painful death). “It’s outrageous, she is supposed to be a role model,” says an RAC spokesperson. Although he could be talking about the fact that she’s still famous.


• The Mirror splashes on Corrie star Craig Charles doing a Doherty (i.e. a four-hour ‘crazed crack cocaine bender’) while being chauffeured back from work. Well, Betty’s hotpot does that to a man.


• The Sun reckons England’s WAGs (Wives And Girlfriends) face a battle against Sweden’s FOFs (Fruar Och Flickvanner) today, although the Swedes are pessimistic. “They’re the underdogs because the WAGs are so famous,” says a Sweden ‘team source’.


• The Star reveals that Big Brother housemate Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace (hang on, isn’t she meant to be from the street?) has appeared on a “raunchy” website specialising in shots of ladies in uniform. They don’t print a link, as they’re promising “more sexy photos” tomorrow. Tsk.


• England footballist Gary Neville is a soft-rocker, says The Mirror. He entertains his team-mates with songs by Elton John, Bon Jovi, Oasis and U2.  Let’s hope England aren’t Living On A Prayer tonight... Yes, I did make that up myself.


• Ex Hearsay star Suzanne Shaw fortuitously manages to lean out of a balcony in her bra just as a paparazzo is walking past. Fancy that. The Star has the pic.


• Finally, there's a heartwarming tale of a five-year-old girl who woke up from a coma when played James Blunt’s ‘Your Beautiful’. And no, it wasn’t listening to his album that put her to sleep in the first place, you harsh people.

Jordan's Quote Of The Year

Yes, her mouth has served many purposes during her glamour modelling career, but never has such quality ever come near her lips, as this. In a recent bitching fest about Jade Goody, she labelled the ex-Big Brother housemate's boob's as looking 'fake', and that she doesn't think 'her surgeon did a good job.' Et Tu, Jordan?

Jade Goody practising tough love with toyboy Jack

Talk about cushty numbers. Not only is 18-year-old Jack Tweedy stepping out with millionairess reality-show star Jade Goody, but she even promised him a £30,000 Series 3 BMW for his 19th birthday. Not that he can drive, you understand. But after a huge row on holiday in Marbella, Jade decided to punish the little fella by withholding the car and... buying him a pricey Cartier watch instead. That'll teach him! You have to wonder what he would've got if she'd been really angry...[Stuart Dredge]
