Octomom Fires Back - Blah Blah Blah - Or Something Like That

trix — Fri, 08 May 2009 14:34:00 GMT

I think Nadya Suleman has a little bit more to worry about than a little lawsuit now, but she did respond to the pending lawsuit.

Her big response could be classified as a, "whatevs". Seriously, that's it? She said, "I'm sure there's gong to be lots of lawsuits filed against me."

What exactly does that mean?

She also said, "Am I going to acknowledge any of them? Probably not because there's no grounds for anything. If anyone wants to do that, feel free to try."

Then she topped it off with a, "People are opportunists, and they just want to be in the spotlight. How ironic is that? That people who don't want that are thrust into it over night, and those who are just foaming at the mouth for it, don't get it enough to go to extraordinary lengths to get some form of attention."

Darn those people and those attention getting ways. Or should I say, Hi pot, this is kettle, you're black.

Ed Burns and Christy Turlington Are Not Selfish

trix — Mon, 04 May 2009 22:03:00 GMT

Christy Turlington and Ed Burns recently reached out to the public for a little boy that attends the same pre-school as their son.

The couple found out that the little boy is suffering from a very aggressive form of cancer and are taking his illness public.

Ed Burns told People magazine, "It broke my heart. I went home and told my wife. 'What can we do to help this family?' She called a friend and got more details. We wanted to do whatever we could."

They held a donor drive at the Montessori School of Manhattan on May 2, with the hope that because, the Tribeca Film Festival was going on that day they could get more people to get their cheeks swabbed in the event they can become potential donors.

We haven't heard how much of a success it was, but I hope they had a great turnout.

Jade Goody's Boys Lose Another Loved One

trix — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 16:02:00 GMT

Oh, my goodness, I don't think I can take anymore sad news today. Jade Goody's poor little boys lost their great grandfather to suicide yesterday.

He was recently diagnosed with throat and mouth cancer and took his own life. We don't know what the suicide note said, but I can't help but think that he didn't want live through what Jade did.

He left the suicide note on the kitchen table for his family and a gun was found next to his body.

Poor Jeff Brazier, to lose the mother of your children is hard, no matter what kind of relationship you had. But to lose another family member within a few short weeks is just more then anyone should have to bear.

Jeff's rep said that he will wait to tell the boys because, " They are very young and have had more than enough pain in the past few weeks."

Our thoughts go out to the family in their time of loss.

Jade Goody's Boys Aren't Going To The Funeral

trix — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 23:02:00 GMT

Jade Goody's sons are so, understandable distraught over their mothers death that they are not going to attend the planned funeral on the April 4.

Jade's mother Jackiey said, the boys are so young I don't think their broken hearts will be able to bear it. “It’s also about the safekeeping of their memories of their mum for when they are older.”

Jackiey doesn't want the boys to remember the media circus surrounding their mother's funeral. She wants the memories they have to be of her before she was sick. The memories of the joyous childhood that every parent wants for their children.

Two days after the funeral, Jade's last book will be published. It's title is, Jade: Remember Me This Way, and all the profits from the book will go to the Marie Curie Cancer Care. The book has hundreds of photo, Jade's favorite photos that she selected for the book.

Update: Jade Goody's Funeral Arrangements Set

trix — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 21:35:00 GMT

If you are on of the fans of Jade Goody, you'll be happy to hear that the final arrangements for her funeral have been made.

The funeral will take place on April 4. The church service will take place in Buckhurst Hill, Essex, after leaving her home in Upshire, Essex. Now, I'm not sure how far the her home is from the church, but I'm sure there is plenty of room for well wishers to line the roads to say goodbye to Jade. The police have been drafted to help control the crowds, so you know they are expecting you to come say goodbye.

There will be loud speakers and if they re able to erect them, large TV's to air the service. However the funeral will not be televised on a network. The family did draw the line at that.

Jack Tweed, Jade's husband of 1 month, is afraid he may miss the funeral procession and service. He is scheduled to appear in court and may end up back in jail for assaulting a cabbie in May of 2008. Jade expressed her wishes that he be at the funeral and be a second father to her children, she also stated that Jack was a changed man.

Whatever happens, if he ends up in jail or is allowed to attend the funeral, the powers that be have to know that living through Jade's illness and death have changed him. I know I don't know him personally, but I'm willing to bet he has matured a ton in the last six months.

Jade Goody's Supporters Turn Out In Droves

trix — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 11:30:00 GMT

Jade Goody died early Sunday morning and already hundreds of mourners, supporters and fans have left tributes at her home.

The tributes are along the lines of flowers, cards, balloons, and stuffed animals. Though the family has asked for their privacy, to mourn in peace, they do appreciate the outpouring of love for Jade.

Jade's mom Jackiey said that they are overwhelmed by the public reaction of her death. She commented, " It just shows how many people really loved her."

I think that many people have latched on to Jade's story as a chance to grieve for something or someone they have lost.

It's hard not to be strong all the time, I personally need a sad movie or song to evoke tears. I find it's easier to feel for someone else, than to feel my own pain. We can all relate to Jade in some way, whether you are a mother, a daughter, a wife, we've all lost someone dear to us.

Jade Goody - Celebrate My LIfe

trix — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 21:31:00 GMT

Jade Goody's family is planning her funeral. They are taking in to consideration Jade's wishes and are making the final arrangements to make her final wishes come true.

Jade wanted her funeral procession to travel through two different villages on the way to the church. The church service will be watched by attendees outside of the church on TV screens set up for that purpose. I'm sure there will be many there, wanting to be a part of something bigger than us all.

She wanted her funeral to be a "celebration" of the life she led.

So if you were a fan of Jade and even if you weren't, take this time to look around at your loved ones and tell them they mean everything to you. Take time to make your appointment for your scan, take care of yourself. Look at the bright side and remember that the glass is always half full. Live life to the fullest and tell your children you love them each and every day. There isn't time to hold on to grudges and anger, life is to be lived joyfully. Live, love, and laugh every moment you can.

Jade Goody Headed to the Big Screen?

trix — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 12:32:00 GMT

Is there a Jade Goody movie in the works?

It's been reported that "Big Brother" producer Gigi Eligoff, wants to make a movie about Jade's rags-to-riches journey.

She said, "Jade's young, she's got lots of money, she's got two young boys and she's dying. I wouldn't be surprised if her story was turned into a movie."

Max Clifford, Jade's publicist, added that: " [Jade] is a story of our time. She is a girl from Bermondsey who admits she has 'no talent', a limited education and suffered a dreadful childhood. Yet she's world famous."

I've already lived her story through the papers and posts I've written, I don't know if I could watch it all over again on the big screen. It's heart breaking and kills me every time I read about her and her boys. I can only think about how much they will miss her and miss all the things that she would represent in their future.

Jade Goody Wants One Last Hurrah After Doctors Rush To Her Side

trix — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 12:33:00 GMT

Jade Goody woke up from a deep sleep on Monday evening and wanted a party.

She shouted to her family: "Everyone go and get ready - we'll have one big last party." She told everybody to cheer up and told her mom to put on more makeup.

That has to be so bittersweet for her family. They are happy to see her awake, but know that it's just a matter of time. Jade tells them to put on a happy face, but they have to be smiling through the tears.

The family is staying by her bedside, just to be near her.

The doctors were called to her bedside, either before or shortly after this scene and told the family to prepare for the worst.

Jade's spokesperson told the press, "We do not know how long she has left, we are on the edge of a precipice."

It's like waiting for the other shoe to drop, I don't what I would do in a situation like that. It's painful and heart breaking all at the same time.
