Legacy
In April 2009, Goody was named the "ultimate reality TV star" by Digital Spy, and plans were announced for Jade the Musical. In the same month, Sir Michael Parkinson wrote that Goody had become property of the media "to be manipulated and exploited till the day she died". He claimed she represented "all that is paltry and wretched about Britain". On 29 December 2009, The Independent reported that according to a tribute site, Goody was the most mourned celebrity of 2009, receiving more tributes even than Michael Jackson. The opening night of Big Brother 10 was dedicated to her memory, and a tribute to her was shown on the final night of Ultimate Big Brother.
