Jade Cerisa Lorraine Goody (born June 5 , 1981 in Bermondsey , London ) is a British Celebrity . She is often held by some as a prime example of the growing Cult Of Celebrity - being made arbitrarily famous by the Entertainment Industry , and becoming a household name due to constant publicity and exposure in glossy magazines. She is what has become known as a "nonebrity". Previously a dental nurse, Goody came to public attention in 2002 when she was a contestant on the Third Series of the British version of the Reality Television series '' Big Brother '', where she finished in 3rd place. Since then, she has gone on to make an estimated £1.5 million fortune in other reality shows and appears almost constantly in Celebrity , Trivia , and Gossip -oriented magazines such as '' Heat '' and '' OK! ''. Goody also "writes" a weekly showbiz column for '' Closer '' magazine. In 2003 her television appearances included '' Celebrity Wife Swap '', alongside Charles Ingram , and '' Celebrity Driving School ''. Goody has an on-off relationship with TV presenter and fellow reality television regular Jeff Brazier , who is the father of her two sons, Bobby Jack, born a month early on June 6 , 2003 and Freddie, born in September 2004. Goody went '' Back To Reality '' on Five with former ''Big Brother'' contestants Nick Bateman and Craig Phillips in 2004 . She also appeared in Channel 4 's ''Big Brother Panto '' at Christmas 2004.

Goody signed up for the 2006 Gordon Ramsay (who completed the course) "I've been eating curry and chinese and drinking." She raised around £850 for her selected charity, the NSPCC . Goody's fame may be also due in part due to various quotes portraying her as being extremely uneducated and ignorant, and a symbol of British Chav culture. She is considered a representative for the perceived attitudes of the British public towards deliberate Apathy , trivia, and Dumbing Down . She came fourth in the 100 Worst Britons poll by Channel 4 . She also recently topped a Kerrang poll to find Britains ugliest female celebrity. QUOTATIONS
