Heard on the radio this morning that last night there were false stories being circulated on the net that Peter Andre had died yesterday.
Apparantly his website has had to put out a statement to say he is still alive

Her body is definitely freakish, after the kind of surgery she's had.

And like it or not she reinforces the negative body image which we're all trying to discourage our children from picking up on - size 00, massive norks and dayglo skin - which the Hollywood & Hello! crowd would have us believe brings us perfect happiness. she's even said herself that she lost her babyweight and went back to work too quickly - whilst she was suffering from PND.

Hardly a role model.

I wouldn't say nasty things about her, but how many of us would want our daughters to grow up like her? Not me for sure.

The point of this thread as far as I can see was not to have a mumsnet bitchfest over Jorden/Katie, it was over the fact that some sicko had posted Peter had died.
But this is how mumsnet works these days, Oh a sicko posted this ohhh not over exciting but we can all rip this woman apart and judge her and her life and be smug that we don't behave like that.

Oh the fun in it.

I have no objections to the way she sells herself, her husband and her children. That's her business and she makes alot of money by exposing their lives as often as she can , it seems.

I don't see what's wrong with porn either

I have no sympathy for her or any problems she has in her life. I don't care.

Her teeth and hair annoy me though.

LadyMacbeth · 01/05/2007 16:59

Did anybody see the headline on the front of some trash mag last week:

From Jordan: "My bump is disgusting".

After her last baby there were headlines from Jordan which read along the lines of: "I hate my fat body" and "how I'm going to lose two stone in two months."

I mean, come on.

Oh yes, of COURSE, I couldn't possibly have a political or feminist objection. But hey, that's probably because I'm just a girl, and it reall is all about our tits
Funnily enough this peurile argument really does illustrate exactly what I loathe about Jordan and the whole industry that she is part of. It reduces women to bodies, and the ideal is a freakish body.

Jesus, if we are having a competition as to who has more 'body image issues', I think the person with numerous major surgeries to alter their appearance usually wins.

krabbiepatty · 01/05/2007 17:02

"Anyone else think Aloha has self image problems, and issues?"
Astonishing thing to say, veraduckworthshandbag.
And depressing.

I think women's bodies are truly beautiful when they are pregnant, I remember glowing for days after a lovely female physio gave me a massage, and told me I looked fabulous

stepfordwife · 01/05/2007 17:03

aloha..baffles me how can you be so vitriolic about someone you've never even met..(I'm presuming you haven't met her)

katie's not perfect (who is?) but, however much money she's got or how she makes that (more from other business interests than taking her clothes off these days, btw) she's a mum who loves her children just as much as any of us and feels the same emotions as anyone else. what gives anyone the right to be so judgemental?

bundle · 01/05/2007 17:03

and I think it's sad that Katie Price - or any other woman - cannot rejoice in the pregnant body,thinking it's "fat"

noddyholder · 01/05/2007 17:04

Aloha I am embarressed that anther woman could say that to you in defence of something so f**ked up Bloody hell what is going on here

Aloha · 01/05/2007 17:06

Look, I don't have to have personally met the rap artists that peddle a homophobic guns and violence lifestyle to object to what they are doing on political grounds. The same goes for a woman who sells herself as a masturbatory aid, and fuels the whole ideal of women as things that is so destructive in this society. It's not really a hard argument to follow. Though tbh I wouldn't expect it to be something that Jordan would grapple with.

Anyone remember how when Claire short protested about page three, there were these choruses of 'she's just jealous'?

LadyMacbeth · 01/05/2007 17:08

Yes bundle even sadder still that editors choose to print it for all to see on the front of a magazine.

noddyholder · 01/05/2007 17:08

A bit of cod like spelling in that last post!

Whose to blame for Jordan selling herslf as a masturbatory aid then?

Jordan for getting her kit off?
The press for publishing her and countless others?
The men who buy the mags to wank over?

It's a huge, huge industry, and will always be around. Holding Jordan personally accountable is ridiculous.

DrNortherner · 01/05/2007 17:14

Alicia Duvall is a mum too IIRC. She went to Thailand and helped after the Tsunami IIRC.

kimi · 01/05/2007 17:15

So is it wrong/bad for us to post/look at pics of naked David Beckham, Harry Potter bloke or some of the other things that have been posted on here.........

Are they just sex objects like the bloke in the Areo ad or the Diet coke ad?
Are we sad for looking, does it mean we expect DH/DP to be buffed up to odd proportions?
