It’s True – Spandau are reforming! Let’s man the barricades!

So the economy is shot to pieces, the weather has gone all miserable again and the next Big Brother is just a couple of months away.

Haven’t we suffered enough?!!!

Apparently not because yesterday Britain’s worst collective nightmare came True… Spandau Ballet announced they were reforming.

Riven apart by artistic differences argument about the cash in 1989 the north London boys have apparently patched up their disagreements and will be embarking on a 25 date national. Shudders.

So why are they doing it? To create that work of pop genius they never got round to the first time? Doubt it and I hope not as that means they’ll unleash another album on us.

Nope it is all about the cash. Like everyone else they want one last pay day. Maybe The Guardian is right they are Thatcherism with a middle eight.

So if the thought of five rather portly middle aged men cavorting round in kilts to tuneless dross like Muscle-bound fills you with terror here’s the Plan B.

We pay ‘em. Come on Britain if you can raise a stonking £50m million for Comic relief (btw that’s about twice Jonathon Ross’s BBC salary) how about getting a few million together to stop messrs Kemp, Hadley et al touring. Come on Spandaus name your price!

We need to nip this in the bud now, after all what might come next. Classix Nouveau? A flock of seagulls? Tight Fit? So come on Britain dream up some money raising ideas. I’ll personally make the ultimate sacrifice and do 24 hours sponsored Will Young listening. Over to you.

Daily Mirror: “I cannot bear to be alone – Jack’s Grief for Jade”

Is Kerry Katona single yet? Danielle Lloyd?

“Jack ‘will go to pieces’ if left alone” – Jade Goody’s husband Jack Tweed can’t bear to spend any time alone and is desperately trying to fill every waking moment with friends and family, pals said yesterday.

A source close to the 21-year-old added that as soon as they leave, he “goes to pieces”.

When he’s alone the newly widowed man goes to pieces. How do they know that, then?

Asked how he was coping, he simply shook his head.

John Mayer Dumps Jennifer Aniston To Write The Great American Tweet

JENNIFER Aniston, the luckiest actress in Hollywood, is said to have split from lover John Mayer because he was spending too much time on Twitter and not enough time with her.

A Twitter post is at most 140 characters. Either Mayer is not all that fast a reader, or else he was working on the perfect Tweet, what we may call The Great American Tweet.

A source tells Star magazine about Aniston, the world’s first Twitter Widow.

“John suddenly stopped calling her or returning her emails and when she would finally catch up with him, he’d say: ‘I’ve been so busy with work. I’m sorry I haven’t had time to call you back’.”

“Her two beloved boys lost their mum”
“Her mum lost her beautiful daughter”

A grandfather loses a granddaughter; a cousin loses a cousin; a postman loses a …

Read about how beautiful the Sun thought Jade was here.

Jade Goody The ‘Pig’ Is Dead

JADE Goody celebrity cancer: Anorak’s at-a-glance look at Jade Goody’s celebrity cancer with Jade’s obituary…

The Sun: “She thought Rio De Janeiro was a person and ‘East Angular’ was a place in Africa”

JADE’S childlike innocence and hilarious blunders charmed the nation when she first shot to fame on Big Brother 3… Her fellow housemates, and a growing TV audience, mocked her for her ignorance

And the press… What did they say, specifically The Sun?

The Sun called her a hippo, then a baboon, before launching its campaign to “vote out the pig”.

The caring Sun…

TODAY Bizarre speaks its mind and urges readers to vote JADE out of the Big Brother house. The pig with the biggest mouth on TV has finally been nominated for eviction – and now YOU have the power to roast her.

Jade has few redeeming qualities and her housemates have at last become aware of her bitchiness and backbiting.

About time too…

She doesn’t deserve to win the £70,000 prize and you can help stop her getting her trotters on it…

I urge you to exercise your democratic right and vote the pig out.

The Sun: “Mum was a lesbian, Dad was a drug addict burglar who hid guns under her cot”

Or you can smile, as she always tried to do, remembering that the world was not quite ready for the brash, boisterous, guileless young woman who burst on to our TV screens seven years ago… and heaven is almost certainly not ready either.

Anorak recalls Graham Norton building his entire post-Big Brother show around the “porcine” Goody.

Daily Telegraph:

The first time she was mentioned in the press, in May 2002, Jade Goody was described as a “pretty dental nurse, 20, from London”. But 24 hours later, as she began her gobby, ignorant trajectory in the Big Brother house, The People went on the attack under the headline: “Why we must lob the gob”. Before long it was open season.  The Sunday Mirror rejected porcine comparisons on the ground that it was “insulting – to pigs”.

Inside the “BB” house, Jade Goody found herself in bed with her male housemate, PJ, who ran away, shrieking.

After getting a blow job. And, no. he wasn’t running. He was in bed.

Her drunken striptease in a drinking game rigged by the male contestants (“Me kebab is showing!”) forced even Channel 4 to blank the screen.

An “I was there” moment of telly viewing. Jade Goody was entertaining. She was on the telly.

“Here she is: fat-rolled, Michelin girl Jade in all her preposterous lack of glory,” thundered the Daily Mirror the next day. “Naked as the day Dr Frankenstein made her.” Jade’s then boyfriend chipped in: “She’s a sex-crazed, lying, two-timing drunken tart, and I hope I never see her again.”

And her dad, who died:

There was also plenty of clapping and cheering for Jade in Bedford jail, where her father Andrew Goody is serving four years for robbery and theft.

He tells the Star of his heartbreak at ”the cruel jibes and abuse” he suffered when the other inmates were glued to Jade’s antics.

”When she was with PJ, every cell door in the jail was banging in time and I wanted to hide and lash out,” he recalls with a shudder. ”It was twice the noise they made when England scored in the World Cup.

Jade Goody A Reader Apology: Exclusive To All Newspapers

Jade Goody is dead. A woman died today. A woman of just 27 years of age with two children died today. And that is tragic. And for all the grandstanding, she might yet save a life…

RIP.
