SARI JADE, WE JUST DON'T WANT YOU
DESPERATE Jade Goody has been pestering a glossy Asian magazine to pose as its cover girl – in a sari.
The Celebrity Big Brother bully thought snaps of her cavorting in Indian gear would build bridges.
But bungling Jade, 25, was told: “Sari, but that’s way too much for Asian people to stomach.”
Staff at Britain’s top-selling Asian women’s mag Asiana were left speechless when Jade approached them with her loopy idea for a PR assault.
The Bermondsey bruiser is desperate to revive her career after enraging the Asian community here and in India by calling Bollywood beauty Shilpa Shetty (pictured), 31, “Poppadom” and “F***awallah”.
But Jade managed to commit yet another toe-curling blunder during her recent PR offensive in India. She told Asiana reporter Gurmej Singh Pawar, 26: “I can now tell my kids that Indian people are not Pakistanis.”
A source close to Jade told the Daily Star last night: “In her eyes, having her in a sari plastered across this respected magazine was to be a quick fix for all the hurt she caused.
But staff saw through her approach and realised readers would be angry to see Jade in beautiful Indian clothes after the foul-mouthed tirades she hurled at Shilpa.
“Jade was insistent. She had to be told repeatedly it was not going to happen.”
Mum-of-two Jade had told pals she wanted the snaps to show her dressed in traditional Indian style, with a desert backdrop of camels and palm trees.
The source added: “She could not even get her ideas right. She seems to be a walking cultural relations nuclear winter.” Shihab Salim, 35, editor-in-chief of Asiana, said: “The option of a photoshoot with her in a sari was flatly rejected.
“It would been in poor taste. I think our readers would have accused us of falling for a PR trick. We support Shilpa – and so do our readers.
“However, since Jade wanted to apologise to our readers, we felt we could include that in our magazine.
“And our decision to run the story was sealed when she came up with priceless quotes such as: ‘Pakistani people are not from India’.”

Not much of anything. She's back with Teddy and all is well. Jade has taken the brunt of all the abuse and hate. Pretty sad if you ask me but she needs to keep herself out of the public eye for a while and it will blow over.eefanincan wrote:Now I'm wondering what the heck ever happened to Danielle?
last I heard was that they had split completely and that she was back in her own place - that was about 2 weeks ago, though it was just some tabloid...IRiSHMaFIA wrote:Not much of anything.

DANI AND TED'S £100M POKER BATTLE
SEXY Danielle Lloyd is to go head-to-head with ex-boyfriend Teddy Sheringham in a £100million poker match.
Model Dani, 23, is about to be signed up as the face of betting giant Ladbrokes’ poker empire.
The Big Brother babe’s gorgeous face and figure will be used to promote the firm’s tournaments.
And that means the Liverpool lass will be battling it out with former lover Teddy, 40, who fronts rival bookie Victor Chandler’s poker ventures.
The pair, who split last month, will now be competing on behalf of their companies to win the biggest slice of Britain’s poker market, worth more than £100m and rising.
The battle between the pair will be one of the industry’s most compelling contests.
A betting source said: “Dani’s appearance on the poker scene will really raise the stakes, but there’s no way Teddy is going to fold and let her and Ladbrokes take the jackpot. This will be some game.”
The poker war was sparked by Dani’s visit to the Cheltenham Festival last week. She won £10,000 at the races after picking out three winners, including Gold Cup champ Kauto Star.
Ladbrokes bosses were so impressed, they decided to sign her up for a string of celebrity poker games they have planned this year.
Danielle, who was taught poker by West Ham striker Teddy, has already enjoyed success at the tables.
But her new job won’t please Teddy, who is long established as the face of Victor Chandler.
He launched the world’s biggest ever online Grand Slam poker event last year with a £5m jackpot on offer.

CBB breached Ofcom code
By NADIA MENDOZA
May 24, 2007
CHANNEL 4 was guilty of "serious editorial misjudgment" over its handling of the Celebrity Big Brother racism row, Ofcom ruled today. It has found three events which were broadcast during the series which were in breach of the Code.
They were: Jade Goody referring to Shilpa Shetty as "Shilpa Poppadom", Danielle Lloyd saying Shetty should "f*** off home", and the argument over Shetty cooking a chicken, which ended with Lloyd and Jo O’Meara making derogatory comments about Indian eating habits.

They took their time eh?!

So, Channel 4 is guilty! Will there be a fine or punishment of any kind, or just a "slap on the wrist", I wonder?
But since it is an unscripted reality show, what exactly is Channel 4's responsibility? Not to air the offending comments? I'm not really sure what Ofcom is trying to convey with this finding. Shouldn't the truly guilty parties be Jade, Danielle, and Jo?

I think it was probably because they showed the incidents on the main (recorded) shows. They might have got away with it if it had been on the live feed... I'm not sure what the punishment will be, but I'm sure there will be talk of it soon. I'd guess on the premiere for the new series if they have any balls!

'P' WORD RHYMES WITH TACKY
THE BIG BROTHER'S GRIM
By Fiona Cummins 25/05/2007
THIS is the shocking Big Brother transcript that Channel 4 covered up and was yesterday forced to reveal for the first time.
Tuesday, January 16 - 23:18hrs
JADE: Did you use the P-word?
DANIELLE: What's the P-word?
JACK: It rhymes with "tacky".
JO: Keep it nice and discreet, Jack.
DANIELLE: I don't know.
JADE: When the argument was going on, did you use the P-word that rhymes with "tacky"?
DANIELLE: No.
JADE: That's what I thought. I thought, I can imagine her saying that under her breath or something.
DANIELLE: I don't use them words.
January 16 - 23:40hrs
JO: There once was a house that was happy, and then there entered...
CLEO: You're all going to go to Big Brother prison.
DANIELLE: How do you know what..
CLEO: And you're going to need me...
JO: But it ends with a nappy. What's wrong with you people?
JACK: But if you say, "Along came some people who were tacky..."
JADE: There once was a house that was happy, until...
JACK: They made it really tacky.
JADE: Until there entered a... until there entered a...
JO: Strappy... Strap-on.
JADE: No, no, no, there once was a house that was happy...
JO: Until someone got yappy...
JADE: Yes. There once was a house that was happy until someone got yappy.
JACK: She nearly killed everyone with a chicken.
CLEO: But everything ended up finger-lickin'.
JO: Now you've got to do something that rhymes with a nappy.
CLEO: Oh, God, don't give that to Danielle, for God's sake.
DANIELLE: And it all ended up - being crappy.
CLEO: Oh, dear me.
DANIELLE: That could have been rather disturbing, that.
January 17 - 00:13hrs
JO: She said, "You know what Jade, this is going to be your claim to fame".
JADE: Because she's a god.
DANIELLE: Is that what she said?
JO: Yeah, she did.
JADE: I don't know her surname. Shilpa Pashwa f****** whoever you are, Shilpa Poppadom, I f****** ...
JACK: Stop it.
JO: Calm down. It's finished.
JADE: I am fuming and I know that it's not going to lie, because I know, when I look at her tomorrow, I'm going to be feeling sick. I cannot stay... I cannot stay in this house and I will never walk.
JO: There was a young girl from Bombay...
JADE: No, let's not do that. I will not walk, because I've never let it get to me, but I tell you what, if I go, that will probably be the best thing for me because I'll end up smashing her head against ... No, I won't, because I'm not violent.
JACK in the Diary Room
BIG BROTHER: Hello, Jack.
JACK: Hello.
BB: Jack, on Tuesday night you and other housemates were making up limericks about Shilpa.
J: Yeah.
BB: You were using rhyming slang for what you called "the P-word".
J: OK.
BB: You said the word rhymed with tacky. It is clear to Big Brother, Jack, that this was a reference to the racial insult "Paki". Jack, do you understand that the word is considered to be racist?
J: Yeah, I fully understand.
BB: And that simply by replacing the word with a word that rhymes with it doesn't take away from the racial insult?
J: I wasn't saying it to anyone. I was explaining what the word... what the word is. I wasn't saying: "That girl is a Paki." I was saying the word is that.
BB: You've suggested the word tacky could be included in a limerick. Correct?
J: Yeah. I think so, yeah.
BB: So would it be fair to say you were making light of the inclusion of the word "Paki" in a limerick?
J: I think so, yeah.
BB: Jack, Big Brother wants you to understand that this word could be considered to be racist. Do you understand that?
J: Yeah, I understand that.
BB: And that Big Brother will not tolerate any racist behaviour?
J: Yeah.
BB: Jack, as a result of this incident, Big Brother is issuing you with your first and only formal warning about this.
J: OK.
BB: Any further incidents could result in your immediate eviction.
J: OK.
JO in the Diary Room
BIG BROTHER: Jo, it has only now come to our attention you have made remarks that Big Brother considers to be racially offensive.
JO: Oh, you're kidding. Like what?
BB: You and housemates were playing a game where you were making up limericks about Shilpa.
J: Yeah.
BB: As part of this game, you used rhyming slang to replace what housemates called the "P-word".
J: I never said the "P-word".
BB: The rhyming slang you used were the words "nappy", "happy" and "strappy", among others.
J: That depends on how you take it. I'm not a racist person at all, ever, and I never, ever have been.
BB: Jo, it's clear to us in this game that these rhyming words were references to the racial insult "Paki".
J: Right, okay.
BB: Do you understand that this is considered racially offensive?
J: Yes, I do. I didn't really mean it in that way. I don't consider myself to be racist at all. I didn't realise the seriousness of it and I apologise if I offended anybody.
BB: In the limerick, do you remember what you intended by the words "happy" and "strappy"?
J: Well, no, because it could've, we could've said anything. It didn't necessarily have to mean that.
BB: Jo, Big Brother will not tolerate any racist behaviour or anything that could be seen to be racist behaviour in the house.
J: Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm not a racist at all, though. That's the thing.
BB: Why do you think that is?
J: My cousin is married to an Indian and half of the side of that side of my family are all Indian.
BB: Any further incidents could result in your immediate eviction.
J: Okay. So I've had a warning.
