Jade's Gems

From porky kebab-showing public enemy number one, to liposucked perfume-whoring people's champion and back again.

Yes, the one-time dental nurse, who once received 'burn the pig' death threats, only to scrape her way up the fame ladder to become 'the most 25th affluetial...inffutial... inferlantial [sic] person in the world' who Kate Moss once said hello to at a festival, is about to be given another 'reality' check.



And, oh the irony, because the very show which made her one of the biggest celebrity phenomenons of our time has now turned her from national treasure to national hate figure in one fell swoop.



Shops are even queueing up to ditch her foul stench from the shelves after they smelt the first whiff of serious rascist-smelling scandal when her target Shilpa Shetty complained of her bullying.

But, lest we forget why Jade was propelled to fame faster than Danielle will slither into a leopard-print tanga for Nuts, let's take a look at some infamous Goodyisms that made her name in the first place.



10. 'Have they not got seasides in Birmingham?'



9. 'The Union Jack is for all of us, but the St George is just for London, isn't it.'



8. 'I am intelligent, but I let myself down because I can't speak properly or spell.'



7. 'They were trying to use me as an escape goat.'



6. 'Saddam Hussein - that's a boxer innit?'

5. 'What's a sparagus? Do you grow it?'



4. 'Rio de Janeiro, ain't that a person?'



3. To Jermaine Jackson: 'Are you black?'



2. 'East Angular? Is that abroad?'



1. 'I don't know what I said, "Shilpa Pappadum" or something.'
