Jade Goody: The Musical!

Could a musical version of the late Jade Goody's life be hitting the center stage???

Quite possibly!

Don't expect the musical to be making it to Broadway anytime soon, but Danny Hayward, a close friend of Goody's, has confirmed that the project will be going into production!

“Various projects we’ve got in the pipeline is a musical we’ve got coming out in about four months time and its going to be the story of her life," said Hayward.

So who will nab the role of Jade???

Friends of Goody's are looking for "somebody that has to be able to dance to sing, because Jade could sing, she had a fabulous voice," revealed choreographer Victoria Hayward.

It's also mandatory "to have that kind of extra special kind of sparkle that she had," said Hayward.

But of course!

  3. 3

    Will it be about the ulgy buttface Jade or the bald headed cross dressing Uncle Fesser Jade or the rotting corpse " who gets a fuck" Jade?



  4. 4

  5. 5

  6. 6

    what a horrible idea………………



  7. 7

    fuck off



  8. 8

    UGH!!!



  9. 9

    its very sad she lost her life to cancer. but she was a british reality tv star. i think a musical is a bit too much.



  10. 10

    oh…that is beyond fucked up



  11. 11

    SHITFUKSHIT! MOONIE WE MISS YOU!



  12. 12

    OMG! She is dead let her rest in peace… I'm really hoping this will fail!

    o/~ Oh, I'm a skank who died, I'm a skank who died. o/~

    BEST SONG EVER!



  15. 15

    I'm sorry she lost her life so young. That is the unthinkable to happen to anyone. But in reality, from what I understand, she wasn't a very nice person. Stop glorifing a person who took glee in belittling others and just let her rest in peace.



  16. 16

    Are you KIDDING ME? What a joke. If she didn't get the news about her cancer on tv, no one would care. She was a JERK of a person until she learned she was dying. Is that the lesson the musical will preach?? Because… she doesn't deserve any recognition. Her life was not that impressive. I have friends who have life stories that would entertain and inform AND lend themselves to a musical format. But Jade's story is just… neh.



  17. 17

    Re: kid toucher smurf – # 3* Who give a Fuck* Oh and if you need someone with that " sparkle", dig her up and stick a roman candle in her ass!



  18. 18

    not meaning to piss on her memory or owt but i dont think she was a good singer



  19. 19

    How many people die every day from cancer? WTF is she to get a musical?



  20. 20

    btw they should contact Christian Bale and ask him for the rights of:
    WHAT DON'T YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND (THE REMIX)
    would feel perfect in the part of the musical where Jade is a hater and a freaking racist!



  21. 21

    i'd rather slowly die from cervical cancer and have the tabloids record my final moments with my family than watch that gomer dick shit.



  22. 22

    who the hell cares bout her? nobody in america thats for damn sure



  23. 23

    Isn't this carrying things just a bit too far? I mean, who cares about a musical about a British rality star who died of cancer? Sad story, but…who cares?



  24. 24

    The song and dance number for the bit when she's revealed to be a bully should be a scream.



  25. 25

    that is the really really stupid!!!



  26. 26

    Gods. Her life does not deserve to be made into a musical. She's dead. It's a good thing. She was obnoxious and never did any good.



  27. 27

    Re: Vulgar Smurf – Right ON…WHO gives a flying FUCK…but then again if they can make the Jerry Springer show into an opera…..Where is all the ORIGINALITY and CREATIVITY out there???



  28. 28

    thats awesome :)



  29. 29

    She's only one of many people whom have been victims of naturally occuring disease. She's not a trailblazer, not only that, she's not even really known for much other than being on a reality tv show, barely even THAT. If you are going to brand someone a hero(ine), make them worth of the title. I don't want to see a musical about an ugly, mean, racist, reality tv show that becomes stricken with cancer…and them plops….maybe a movie, but def not a play.



  30. 30

    I think I just threw up my dinner..
    On the up side it shouldn't be too difficult to find some foul mouthed, ignorant/uneducated, talentless chav (low life) to play her role….
    :(
    :)



  31. 31

    We all saw Big Brother, she couldn't sing a note. What a load of shit.



  32. 32

    Roland Martin on CNN served you. Read his article.



  33. 33

    Oh purleeze what sparkle ? She was a foul mouthed common uneducated rude bitch.All the family are doing is cash in like vultures on her rotting corpse- it is disgusting.



  34. 34

    the jade goody mania is going too far! she was only important in the uk she wasn't a super celebrity around the world so give it a rest, I am tired of this



  35. 35

    WHAT?



  36. 36

    is it a zombie musical? I call bullshit. maybe a musical about realy flamboiyant guys who like to kiss other guys and the tickets can be overpriced oh wait (rent) has already been done to bad to sad.



  37. 37

    Is Broadway hurting this bad??
    This is absolutely surreal!!! How about some "creativity" or "originality" in the world of "creative" arts??
    Here's a novel idea: How about someone imagining and writing a truly inspiring and entertaining story and putting it to music (or not). I guess that's too big an order for the IDIOCRACY, eh?
    Well, if all else fails (and,cynacilly, it will) how about (as I'm sure is to come) Lindsay Lohan-THE MUSICAL!- Brangelina!-THE MUSICAL!- Foreclusergate-THE MUSICAL!-Dallas!-THE MUSICAL!!-Dynasty-THE MUSICAL!..et al…) Gimme a freakin break- we are indeed at the end of times when all the "creative minds of the big white way can come up with are bullsh**t like….wait for it…… _Diff'rnrt Strokes"- THE MUSICAL!!!! OOPS!! Sorry, did'nt mean to spill the beans on that last MAJOR Broadway breakthrough!!!



  38. 38

    wow….this is ridiculous. what did she do again? be a human - lived and died? i don't get it. where's mother theresa's musical? fuckers.



  39. 39

    Re: Irrumatio – Springer!!! woo hoo, jerry, my hero. everyone in my trailer park watches him



  40. 40

    Well if the whole affair didn't make you sick to your stomach before, this surely has to ?



  41. 41

    NO ONE in the US even knows who this dumb bitch is

  42. h311o says – reply to this


    42

    You are joking. She's dead, leave her alone and if this stupid idea is going ahead please don't televise the search for the new Jade Goody. She sang…on Stars in their Eyes. This is pathetic and stupid and insensitive and completely outrageous. Fuck off. Get back on the dole Goodys because you're not going to screw your dead daughter anymore. Everyone is sick of her. Other people die from cancer and don't have this sort of treatment. She wasn't the only one and she isn't the only one. She had to make amends on the racist stuff so we had to be sorry for her but all its done is annoy the bejeasus out of everyone. Fuck off now.



  43. 43

    Whooptedoo. Some English reality ugmo hack kicked the bucket. Who cares?



  44. 44

    ON AMERICAN IDOL THERE IS A 16 YR OLD GIRL IN THE TOP 10 THAT WOULD FIT PERFECT…..SHE LOOKS LIKE HER AND IS SPARKLY



  45. 45

    I KNEW IT! Only two weeks ago, my sisters and my mother were joking about there being a Jade Goody musical being made soon… OH DEAR, IT'S COME TRUE! I expect the main song will go something like this,
    "I'm just a working class girl from Berrrmondsseeeyyy! Then I got a chance to be on Teeevvveee…!"



  46. 46

    my ex bf the cheating one said he used to live in london in like apartment or something and the last name of these guys was goody and they used to kind of rule everyone and go around beating people up was she related to them ?



  47. 47

    April 24. RECOGNIZE THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE 1,500,000 DEAD. SHAME ON YOU TURKEY. RECOGNIZE 94 YEARS OF DENIAL. APRIL 24, 1915



  48. 48

    Puhleaze. She was a racist, foul-mouthed bore. I'm sorry that she died so young from a disease that testing is available on the NHS for free.



  49. 49

  50. 50

    What fucking 'sparkle'?



  51. 51

    Whoever plays her will have to be fugly, fat, and have a mush-mouth accent. Stupid ugly fame-whore trashbag. I swear, Perez puts these stories about this trailer park shitbag up just to rile the crowd. If they do a show about her, NOT ONE PERSON will go see it, unless her jailbird husband gets parole/day pass or something.



  52. 52

    THIS IS GOING TOO FAR!!



  53. 53

    WTF? WAT DID SHE EVER DO APART FROM GOIN ON BIG BOTHER? TWICE! MUSICAL MY FUKIN ASS! WATZ DAT GOIN B BOUT? HER BULLYIN ON BB N THAN MARRYIN A MONEY GRABIN TWAT!!! Y DONT THEY PUT THE TIME N MONEY INTO SUMTHING 4 SUM1 WHO REALLY DID SUMTHING AND OR ACTUALLY HAD TALENT!

  54. Laxer says – reply to this


    54

    Since she's finally dead, wouldn't it be more appropriate to produce a show called.. "Jade Goody: On Ice!"



  55. 55

    How in the world will they portray The Biggest Loser show? I think she was just kind of equal to all the average joes out there…she just got cancer and became bigger than the usual because she was so young to die, really. She was a bit loud and brash tho….Rest In Peace, Jade……..



  56. 56

    I think this is a great great great idea - and in the finale number, there can be a part where the choral singing back-up singers pick all of the worms out of her decaying corpse after they dig her up out of London Cemetary..!!!



  57. 57

    I know you're trying to increase British readership…but really, Perez? I thought you only mentioned and praised people worth of the attention. Jade Goody was a racist and not that nice of a person. It's unfortunate she was diagnosed with cancer, but that doesn't erase who she was. If Lindsay had made racist comments or Vanessa Hudgens or anyone you didn't like, you would totally write them off. But instead you continue talking about Jade Goody..I am a loyal reader but these instances make it hard for me to respect your judgement xox



  58. 58

    Too early to even imagine a production of this - good message, perhaps for young gals in high school - it would otherwise be too sad and depressing to watch.



  59. 59

    YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN WHO GIVES A SHIT



  60. 60

    The only way you'll get me to pay to see this is if jade plays herself.
