A musical of Jade Goody's life is in development, a friend and business partner of the late reality TV star revealed today.
Danny Hayward said that the stage show is only in its "infant stages" but he is planning auditions to cast an actress as the late Big Brother contestant.
One of Goody's "best men" at her wedding, Hayward told ITN On: "We've got [a musical] coming out in about four months' time and it's going to be the story of her life and we're going to be on the search for who is going to play Jade."
The musical is the latest of a series of projects launched following Goody's death, at the aged 27, last month.
NO NO NO! This has just become ridiculous.
Let's have a think about all the wonderful, intelligent and entertaining people that have died...
Erm... Ok well I can't think of any but you get the idea. Why in the hell does of all people 'Jade "is east anglia abroad?" Goody get a whole musical written, acted and performed about her sorry life?! I know the obvious answer here is money, as a lot of our British public have been convinced Jades death is the ressurection and demise of princess Diana or something.
I am seriously concerned with the west end right now. What has theatre come to? Better question who in the fuck is gonna' want to play Jade Goody? She was certainly... well 'unique' is probably the kindest phrase to use there...
