It's like the people who say that about Jade Goody and the pictures she was selling, the interviews she was giving etc between the time she was diagnosed with cancer and the day she died. That tickles me every time. They focus on the constant media attention and the money being made rather than the fact that she manipulated the media's obsession with every little detail of her personal life to make a mountain of cash for her children that she left behind.
I hated hearing about her in the media, from the time she was in Big Brother onwards but good on her for that. Anyway, i'm waiting to hear the same things from these idiots about Michael Jacksons new recordings if and when they do get released.

right im not saying what Jade Goody did wasnt wrong in a sense, but if you had to be in the same situation wouldnt you want to see your children through life? i know that if i was diagnosed with it (touch wood you or I arn't) i think i would do the same if i was in the same media spotlight. it is wrong to manipulate the media like that, show her wedding on tv, every single aspect of her life on tv for that matter. but i know she wouldnt have done that if she never had kids. well i think, i dont know, because.. well i never knew her personally.
same for michael jackson, ive never had kids, but my mum & dad alway tell me n the siblings how much we mean to them. any parent could tell you their children are the most important things in life. im not getting on to you btw, im just saying in the situation wouldnt you do what you could for your kids?
