Won't be me then ;) I suggest you unsubscribe and leave others to reading and posting on it. It's not the law that you have to read every thread (unless you're a mod of course).

Jade also appears to have been very close friends with some guy called Kevin Adams who's very black. He doesn't appear to consider her racist so who are we (anglo saxon types) to say she is? And is it relevant now?

lol Shetti is more attention seeking then Goody. So of course she forgave her. She got some great press out of it. It doesn't tell us what she really thought of Goody.

I don't think Jade is a conscious racist - there is a difference (she can be taught and shown how to change and clearly has) but as far as Shilpa is concerned, they are only doing the celebrity lovey thing (yuk yuk). Do you think for a minute that if it was Joe Bloggs off the street that was racially abusive towards her, then she would forgive and be all chumy - not a chance!

From what I can see, Jade was racist to this Sheppy (sorry but I think of John Noakes when I see that name) and now some people appear (I could be wrong) to feel that it's relevant to the discussion about her dying. Curious how people's minds work :blink:

I've often been tempted to ban myself but never quite got round to it :lol:

I thought we were on an OPEN discussion forum :confused: to talk about whatever we wanted to - that seems to be the done thing here.

On the same token, is it relevant to talk about Jade Goody at all here?

Double standards for you oldies, seems nothing has changed despite newbie complaints! :mad:

What are you talking about? Completely misunderstood me. I was simply commenting on how people's minds do jump from thought to thought. People can talk about what they want and argue. Is it relevant to talk about Jade on here? Possibly. Apparently she was considering moving to Aus with her family so yup, quite relevant ;) Someone asked that it be closed. I said no - where are the double standards?

I don't think so somehow :frown:

Just wondering - where does the new husband come into all this, as obviously her two boys are the main priority, but doesn't the husband get everything in other scenarios?? Did he sign a pre-nup maybe?

It was disclosed a few weeks ago that all Jade's money and property will go to her sons and that Jack will only get a few of her possessions.

Oh, and just why exactly can't we discuss Jade Goody in the Barbie??????
