Why are people so fickle?

It astounds me how fickle the public are! One minute they like someone, a celebrity for instance, and the next they don't, or one minute they don't like them, then they do! People seem to change their opinions about people so bloody quickly these days, it really surprises me, and makes me laugh!

For instance, Michael Jackson!



People loved him in the 80s, then hated him in the 90s when the first Paedophilia thing came out the first time around. Then he paid them off out of court, reinvented himself, and people loved him again. Then in the 00s they hated him again, when the second Paedophilia thing came out. Then he was found not-guilty, and then he died, and everyone loved him again!

Jade Goody!
 

Everyone hated her when she was in Big Brother in the early 00s. Then they loved her after BB and she started earning a shit load of money, got married, had kids, etc. Then they hated her again when she went on Celebrity Big Brother and was racist to Shilpa Shetty on the show, and bullied her. Then she went to India to try and make things right on their Big Brother show, trying to rebuild relations. Then she got cancer, and she died! Then everyone loved her again!

My third example is Katie Price aka Jordan!



Everyone liked her when she first it the screens, and as her life has evolved, she's been liked one minute and hated the next. When her son Harvey was born with septo-optic dysplasia, everyone felt sorry for her and loved her again, but then when she married Peter Andre and we saw on one of her TV shows how she treated him and what a bitch she was towards him, everyone hated her again. Then when they split and divorced, everyone hated her more. Then she met and married Alex Reid, and people warmed to him on Celebrity Big Brother, people started liking her again, but now she's hated again because of the stories we hear of how she controls Alex and his life etc.

It just goes on. You love them, you hate them, you love them again, then you hate them again. It never ends!
This is what I mean about the public being so fickle. Drives me mad! Why can't people just make up their mind and stick with it?

I love Michael Jackson's music, but don't like him!
I have never liked, nor ever will like Jade Goody!
I have never like, nor ever will like Jordan!

At least I know how I feel about certain people, and my opinions have never changed no matter what's happening in their life! Can others say the same thing? I doubt it!

Jade Goody's Funeral

I was in Toys R Us earlier today, and happened to walk past a tv set. My first thought was 'why are they showing Princess Diana's funeral on tv again?'. Then I realised it wasn't a repeat, it was a copy! It was Jade Goody's funeral.

Not being funny, but that the fuck? Was she as big as lady Di? Was she as loved as Lady Di? No! Then why did she have a funeral parade reminiscent of Lady Di? I was totally shocked, and disgusted. I walked away!

Look, i'm sorry she had cancer, and i'm sorry she's dead, but ffs, what the fuck? There have been far more people out there, who have been in the public eye, and loved so much more by the public than Jade Goody, so why the fuck did she have to be so extravagent with her funeral?

Why did she choose to do that? Totally over the top! I'm still in disbelief! Could the woman ever do ANYTHING privately?

She went on Big Brother, she got into the public eye, stripped on the show, was loud and obnoxious, then later carried on being loud and obnoxious outside the show, living her life publically, then abusing Shilpa on Celeb Big Brother causing her more hatred, then losing all her remaining popularity, then going to India to go on their Big Brother, to try to resolve that problem, then being diagnosed with cancer.

She was annoying, then hated, then even more hated, then sympathised with, then, for some reason, loved again! Why? I just don't get it! I think it's all a joke, I really do!!!

End of rant!

Jade Goody & John Suchet

A few months ago, when I found out Jade Goody had cancer; I immediately, embarrassingly, thought it was a lie. I thought it was a publicity stunt, because she had gone onto the Indian version of Big Brother, to make amends for the way she treated Shilpa on our Big Brother the year before. All that drama when she found out, and her flying back etc, I honestly thought she was lying, and it was all one huge publicity stunt, for her to gain sympathy, after being seen as such a horrible bitch on TV for being racist.

Part of me also thought maybe she already knew this information prior to going into the house, and used the information to her advantage, again for public sympathy etc.

I am ashamed to admit all that, but it was honestly how I felt. I don't know why I see the worst in everyone. Maybe it's because I’ve been shat on so many times in my life, that I find it hard to believe there is good in anyone on this planet. Actually, I’d say that last comment was pretty damn accurate!

Needless to say, Jade is dying. It wasn't a lie, it was the truth, and the poor girl has days, maybe weeks to live. I feel so fucking guilty for thinking she was lying when she was told.

I do feel like shit now, for thinking any of this, and I feel so sorry for her, Jack, and her children. I can completely understand why she wants to do this docu, the photo shoot for the mag, and all the publicity, because not only is it helping other women to see how important it is to have the smear test, but it's also helping her raise money to give her children a healthy financially secure future.

I bow my head to Jade Goody now. I never liked her, and still don't, but for what she's doing, and for what she's achieved in her life, I think she's an amazing person, and I feel so sorry for her, because she's so young, and dying. My heart goes out to her and all her loved ones.

Equally, I also feel for John Suchet and his wife, Bonnie. Bonnie has Dementia, and is slowly dying, and after 3 years, John has stepped forward, and announced this to the world, to help him with the healing process, but also to help others to deal with this terrible illness.

I am so scared personally, that one of my parents, or indeed my Nan might one day come down with this terrible illness, it truly scares me to think that one day they might not know who I am, etc. I really have no idea how I would deal with that; I’d probably fall apart.

You have to be such a strong person to handle that, and it's quite obvious that if John hadn't had the NHS nurse helping him, and the support he's received from the counselling services, he wouldn't be as strong as he appears on TV. Thank God for charities, counselling services, support services, and nurses and medical staff for all they do, to help people like John, his wife, Jade, and her family, cope with these terrible illnesses and diseases that are ruining and destroying their lives.
