OK publish Jade Goody "memorial issue" before she is even dead

[Xarea]

I was in a central London newsagents this afternoon, and saw the words: "Jade Goody Official Tribute Issue, 1981-2009". So of course I thought the poor girl was already dead.

No, she wasn't: OK Magazine had very tastefully jumped the gun. And it wasn't an accident, since the cover ("In Loving Memory") was simultaneously displayed on its website. I suppose the circulation guys were worried that they might lose a few sales in between her actual death and the magazine (issue number 666) appearing on the shelves. Best to be on the safe side, eh?

All of these Jade Goody threads do annoy me, but that was bang out of order of OK.

Is it really issue number 666 lol?

Wouldn't it be funny if she made a miraculous recovery!?



It says on the front cover, final words? She's not even dead, she could talk again! :@

Wouldn't it be funny if she made a miraculous recovery!?

for her, yes. for us, no.

[untrustus]

haha as if. if there was a heaven, she wouldn't be going to it.

[Caution]

it's sorta wrong for them to do that, but i don't think she'll be bothered.

lol@above.

[Samishlol]

She won't be bothered, she's going to be dead soon.

[Stefy09]

Is she gonna die or what

[tm]

She is going to die but it's in terrible thing to publish a tribute before she's gone.
The bit '1981-2009' is what got me.. that's such an awful thing to print.

This whole episode hasn't exactly been in the best of taste but I think this is yet another step too far.

[Inseriousity.]

They'll be at her funeral next

"Why were the guests wearing black?! It's soooo last year"

As you can see, I have a narrow view of these magazines because I refuse to read them.
