I know that most of you will not know who Jade is. But She was part of the Big Brother Family and we should remember her. :(
LONDON (AP) -- The publicist for British reality TV star Jade Goody says she has died at home after a long and public battle with cervical cancer. The mother-of-two is best known for much-mocked television appearances but many have described her response to terminal cancer as brave. As with much of her later life, 27-year-old Goody's final weeks were spent in the media spotlight. Bald and pale from chemotherapy, pictures of Goody have appeared daily in the British press. She married just weeks before her death. Publicist Max Clifford said Goody died in her sleep at home in Upshire, southeast England, early Sunday. She became well-known after appearing on the reality show "Big Brother." She learned of her diagnosis for cancer while appearing on the Indian version of the show.
Jade Cerisa Lorraine Goody (5 June 1981 – 22 March 2009) was a British celebrity. She came into the spotlight while appearing on the Channel 4 reality TV show Big Brother in 2002, an appearance which led to her own television programmes and the launch of her own products after her eviction.
In January 2007, she was a housemate in Celebrity Big Brother. During the show she was accused of racist bullying against Indian actress Shilpa Shetty. Following her eviction from the show, she admitted her actions had been wrong and she subsequently made many public apologies.
