Programme will be broadcasted on E4
Friday, 1 May 2009
Jade Goody’s life will be celebrated in a new documentary.
Big Brother bosses have decided to record an E4 tribute show following her battle with cervical cancer and sad death in March.
Initially, Jade, 27, was only going to feature in 2 new clip-compilation programmes to mark the 10-year anniversary of the Channel 4 series.
‘It was clear from the support Jade and her family got from the public that there is great affection for her,’ says a source.
‘We are planning a series of shows to mark our 10th anniversary and it would be a real shame not to give Jade her own show – separate from the others.’
Jade’s friends and family are chuffed with the decision.
‘There is certainly a lot to celebrate,’ PR guru Max Clifford tells the Daily Star.

Channel 4 continues to make profit from someone who showed us on tv what she really was - someone intimidating, arms raised, spouting hate and anger because of the way shilpa shetty looked (her colour) and talked different. It wasnt an act. It was her true colours. We all sat, watched that and gasped. What followed that display was nothing short of the end of the mini empire that had been created on the back of no talent, just notoriety - perfumes were taken from the shelves. Endorsements were cancelled and for good reason. Yes have sympathy for the cancer that followed. But let us not forget that it is wrong to celebrate such actions. Not only would this documentary publicise Jade, it would give Jack, who was convicted of being being a vicious and violent man himself, further attention. They dont deserve it. Are these talentless individuals really a good example to turn into a role models for our children? By supporting the Goody's arent we saying to our children its ok to be a hateful because of someone's colour, its ok to assualt a cabbie?? I sincerely hope not. If Channel 4 wants to do something significant and make a statement - it ought to give the money it has budgeted for the documentary to Cancer Research instead. I for one, never ever watched big brother again. It went too far. Beyond what I could possibly stomach. This is more of the same and something i felt so strongly about, i had to make my little voice heard in the hope that others would not be blinded and see the truth.
American Idol winner thanks fans for support
