Parkinson: 'Goody was exploited'

ORIGINAL: krunchie frog



Perhaps you should read the actual full article of what he said. He isn't being nasty about Jade, he's being honest. She was used and manipulated by the whole media and celebrity system. She was an uneducated girl from a poor background and had at times a foul side for us to see, where she said stupid things ('Shilpa poppadom' anyone). She DID represent what was bad about Britain, it showed us that there unfortunately are people who get through life like this. Though she apparently did try using her celebrity to progress herself, her stint on celeb BB showed she hadn't really grown or changed. I accept that she apologised and acknowledged her behaviour so I'm not going to go around calling her a racist. But she was a victim of the system. Not sure how well I've explained myself, am tapping away on my iPhone.

I think good on her for doing what she could to help the future of her kids without her.

But why is it too soon to say something contradicting the masses? Parky even says it's a shame she died of what she did so young, but she really was not a kind of saint or martyr. And that is in no way speaking ill of the dead.

ps: off topic but i wish you guys at AIL would start more 'topic' threads so to speak. I rarely reply to threads these days as they are mostly about celebs & premiers..... which don't interest me at all.

Did that make sense? :confused2:
