Jade Goody, a British reality TV star, has died from cervical cancer. She was only 27.
Goody rose to fame as the sometimes impetuous gal from Big Brother, a reality show that films a house full of contestants as they try and live together. She joined the cast in 2002, and quickly gained popularity for her loud and sometimes abrasive ways.
She was evicted from the Big Brother house after an altercation with Shilpa Shetty, a Bollywood Actress. Later, she was invited by the Indian Tourism Office to come to India and even be on their version of Big Brother. It was on that show that she very publicly received her diagnosis of cervical cancer.
She died in her sleep early Sunday morning in her England home.

despite her personal flaws, it is tragic that Goody passed on at such a young age, and on Mother’s day
I agree. She has two young children and my heart goes out to them and her husband. No one should ever have to suffer from this disease.
