Goody Biography:
Jade
Cerisa Lorraine Goody (born June 5, 1981 in Bermondsey, London)
is a British celebrity. She is often held by some as a prime example
of the growing cult of celebrity - being made arbitrarily famous
by the entertainment industry, and becoming a household name due
to constant publicity and exposure in glossy magazines. Jade Goody
is what has become known as a "nonebrity".
Jade
first became known to the public when she was a contestant on
the third series of the British version of the reality television
series Big Brother, where she was the 10th person to be evicted.
Since then, she has appeared almost constantly in celebrity, trivia,
and gossip-oriented magazines such as Heat and OK!.
In
2003 Jade Goody television appearances included
Celebrity Wife Swap, alongside Charles Ingram, and Celebrity Driving
School. Goody has an on-off relationship with TV presenter Jeff
Brazier, who is the father of her two sons.
She came fourth
in the 100 Worst Britons poll by Channel 4.
Since
being evicted from Big Brother, Jade Goody has
gone on to make a fortune of an estimated £3.5 million.
On June 6,
2003 she gave birth to a son, Bobby Jack Brazier, who was born
a month early, weighing 5lb 7oz. Her second son, Freddie, was
born in September 2004. He weighed 6lbs 6oz and was also born
one month early.
Goody went
Back To Reality on five with former Big Brother contestants Nick
Bateman and Craig Phillips in 2004. She also appeared in Channel
4's Big Brother Panto in Christmas 2004.
In September
2005 she opened a beauty salon, Ugly's, in Hertford. The preparations
for opening the salon were filmed for a Living TV series, Jade's
Salon.
Jade
Goody's fame may be also due in part due to various quotes portraying
her as being extremely uneducated and ignorant, and a symbol of
British chav culture. She is therefore a perfect representative
for the perceived attitudes of the British public towards deliberate
apathy, trivia, and dumbing down.
