Jade Goody, well known to Brits for staring in Big Brother has been told her cancer cannot be cured and that she will die.

Goody became a household name in the UK after appearing in Big Brother in 2002 and since then has appeared in other TV shows as well as the 2007 edition of celebrity big brother where TV watchdogs received more than 40,000 complaints after she taunted Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty.

27-year-old Goody has been told she only has months to live after her cervical cancer spread to her liver, bowel and groin.

British Big Brother star Jade Goody is fast-tracking plans to get married after being told doctors cannot cure her cancer.

Goody, 27, only has months to live after her cervical cancer spread to her liver, bowel and groin, the British Press Association reported.

She sprung into the spotlight during her first appearance in the Big Brother house in 2002, before going on to launch a range of her own products and host television shows.

Goody's return to the house in 2007, on the celebrity edition of the show, ended in ignominy, after her taunting of Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty outraged viewers and resulted in more than 40,000 complaints.

However, in August 2008 she accepted an offer to go on the Indian version of Big Brother. Two days into that she was diagnosed with cervical cancer and left the house.

You would never wish an early death on anyone, but she is a thoroughly unpleasant human being. Vulgar, racist, ignorant. In a world where beautiful children die for want of food, this woman has been showered with wealth for doing nothing but being a spectacle. Sad.

how dare you speak like that about any one you dont personally know. The reason she is famous is because of the press and the general public. She has made a life out of it and why shouldnt she? she has also  raised two kids and i think she should be praised for doing so.
