Is Oprah Trying to Score Interview with Dying Reality Star Jade Goody?

I’m not even going to try to deny my obsession with news and updates about zumaredwestphotos181429-20090302-zaf-m24 British reality TV star, Jade Goody, who, tragically, was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer and has been told that she only has weeks to live.  Things have gotten so much worse for Jade recently as she had to return to the hospital over the weekend due to hallucinations and serious pain.  It’s being reported that she desperately wants to leave the hospital so that she can die at home.  The young woman, who will leave behind two sons (Bobby, five and Freddie, four) became a household name while she was on Celebrity Big Brother (after she became a fan-favorite on the non-celebrity version of the show).  She was accused of being a racist after she referred to housemate, Bollywood star, Shilpa Shetty , as “Shilpa Poppadom” among other things.  Shetty went on to win the show.

It’s being reported that Oprah Winfrey and Larry King are hoping to talk to Jade in the near future.  Her agent said that the appearance would have to be via satellite since Jade cannot travel.
