Really? What kind of a mother is this? I mean -- YOU LEFT YOUR CHILDREN BECAUSE YOUR MARRIAGE FAILED! That is why Gia went bad. And NOW that she's gone, you're talking about her -- But She's DEAD and cannot even dispute what you're saying!!! EVEN if what you're saying is true, let her soul rest in peace!! Must you talk about it? To the Media? What a sad woman you are -- and you are probably sadly still alive and even checking on YOUTUBE for your posts... gross
parents, take care of kids! Gia just wanted her parents to accept her, her sexuality. But they never did. poor Gia just died from the LACK OF LOVE. It was not drugs or AIDS. I am very touched by this story.
@sixstoriesfall I may understand your point of view but it is a difficult topic to discuss. All the family suffers when someone is addict, not just the addicted. I have seem so many parents lost without knowing what to do to save their sons lifes's that those stories always brake my heart.
im actually crying..it is so fucking sad what fame and fortune does to someone so young she wasn't even in her 30's before she died and she is still by far the most beautiful woman to ever be on a magazine cover
@TheMandyrockstar it went off like wildfire after the fame and fortune but as you can see in the movie the seeds of destruction where already there i.e lack of love from her mother
Can you imagine.. something that came out of your body your baby because no matter how old your child gets that's always gonna be your baby, just wasting away in slo mo before your eyes. I mean this precious pretty little doll baby, just turning into a sickly whatever right before your eyes and it aint damn thing you can do about it except pray that the Lord Jesus took her spirit before she felt any more pain.
My poor brother Bill,God rest his soul,passed from aides.He was attacked by gay-bashers downtown lex,ky.after the mid.showing of The rocky horror pic show in 1982.He wasnt just beaten,he was stabbed in the stomache & needed a blood transfusion.Thats when his problems began. He died in 2001.Thats a long time 2 live w/aides.He didnt know if he got aides thru sex or the B.T.,but was careful after he found out.Wonder y bill lived so much longer?God's will I guess.RIP Bill & Gia.ur n heaven now!
I'm from Lexington, Ky and I just wanted to say so sorry to hear that . Your brother is in no more pain may he rest in peace. He's in a safe place now and you will see him again some day.
@Desiree50 Yes. Although to hear her say it in her interviews she acts like it was one sided and Gia was in love with her but she didn't like Gia like that. But yes they were lovers, but you won't really get her to admit that today. She seems so afraid of being labeled "gay, or bisexual".
@Beautifu1B1urr or maybe shes afraid ppl will think shes hiv positive.ppl can be hiv pos for 20 years now if they take care of themselves and take the meds that are given.who knows.but i heard her in a interview saying gia shot her up with heroin.
if i were gia, i would've hated my mom coz i would think that, that is what i had to do to get my mother's full attention, it was to a point where gia was dying where she got her moher's full attention so, idk what you can say about her mom
5:07- how sad it is that often only in the end do people finally give care to the ones they're supposed to love. perhaps if people like Gia had been cared for like this all along, they would not have felt so sad, lonely & resorted to drugs & self-destruction.
I have to wonder what was it that made her turn to drugs..I know they say she was senstitive/vaulnerable but still..she was never abused sexually or physically by her parents she lived a comfortable life lots of kids parents get divorced or they are gay some even have it 100% worse then gia but you don't see then turn to drugs. They learn to cope, and become determined to better themseleves and their life. You have to have to want to strive for excellence N be ambitious sadly she wasnt that
But it is very difficult to live life when you are not loved by the ones you wish you could share love with. Even though I would not do drugs or harm myself, I can understand her pain, because i suffer with depression everyday from lack of sincere love and understanding from a particular person I care for. Even with many friends, a person can still feel completely alone. I believe her situation was much more complex than most people realize. Sadness also can weaken some people to no end.
So tragic & sad.I cant help but extend my heart to her & her family.Regardless of any family issues no parent should have to see their child like that.Thats something that will be with Gia's mother forever. It's horrible how much Gia suffered in her short lifetime.She went through so much in what most people need a full lifetime to experience.Its unfortunate that she didnt have a chance to experience her sobriety in a more positive aspect.The price she paid for her flaws were extremely harsh. ;/
Bad hings happen to good people.Such a sad story. I believe Gia is an angel now.She was sent to teach us a lesson. Don't participate in risky drug behavior.She could have contracted AIDS from needles or the rapes that occured. Sad. RIP- Gia forever.
i know some one that died of aids due to drug abuse and it ate him alive like dead man walking, but his wife was infected by him due to sex she died but it didnt have the same affect. I think it has something to due with how you get it the more affects from it.
To be honest, modeling can be a dog-eat dog world. you literally get chewed up and spit out. GIA isn't the first model or last to battle with drug abuse. there has been plenty, some have been lucky to recover. mind you, this was in the 80's, there wasn't a lot of info available for HIV/AIDS. People now who are infected are living a normal life time. A lot has to do with the medication available now, it's so advance.
I also think, that she was infected by her rapings, but in the book fried says that ain't a fact, she may be raped , but may be it could have been a desperate attempt to get her mum's attention.
they could have done more, but though agree with you, I think, some of them really love her like Skavullo. btw I'm angered at her mother, she should have taken better care of her .
I'm 20 years old and a one night lover put me at risk of being HIV positive, I just found out im negative. I was once unconcerned about the possibilities because of hopelessness. I collasped at the end of this video, thank you Gia for showing me hope and the end I don't want to have.
i'm sure, you're a nice person and i can understand where ur bitterness is coming from, but please don't write stupid things. She was a gay or at least bisexual and she was infected with HiV by sharing needles with other heroin addicts. So if you want to express ur opinion , you can do it more corectly, cuz hate won't get you anywhere.
see, when you write such things , you won't change their wrong vision of asian muslim men and you actually work agaist your people. I'm a white woman and I'm very tolerant, even have many friends of different skincolor , so it's a mistake to say' all white men are,,,' or ' all muslims are..." , right?
@saltif31 Every race has evil people in it. People are evil because they are evil, not due to any skin color. How ignorant of you to say that Gia was raped by a white man, you don't have the slightest clue what you're talking about. Don't come to something that is posted as a tribute and post your ignorant racist comments. Have respect.
I do appreciate this vid on her...but I can't help being angered at how all her supposed "friends" discuss NOW how she was a mess, in such bad shape, when they did absolutely nothing for her...tried to forget about her until the HBO film came out and THEN, they all talked about how upset they were at what happened to her...this girl didn't have a friend in the world....sad, sad, sad....
from sharing needles.. when she was desperate for drugs she found this guy and (its in the movie too) he gave her a needle that he had just used adn she used it.
a great movie from a tragic happening,gia died on november 18th and last year my sister commited suicide on november 18th ,gia was one of her favourite movies also.angelina was amazing the movie my favourite by her
hi, i couldnt help to read ur text, im sorry ur sister died, it happend to me with my brother 3 years ago, and its really hard situation. anyways i luv this movie too. best wishes.
@NikkiClo Just because you don't like an actress doesn't mean that she shouldn't act in a movie such as Gia and portray her character and share her story with people.
First things first, if Amy Winehouse isn't careful she might wind up just like Gia and secondly why the fuck did that drug dealer who looked like Triple H punch Gia in the stomach for. It was none of his business what she was going to do with all the heroin. But for some strange reason Amy Winehouse reminds me so much of Gia, I don't know why.
Being honest and sincere about who they were and what they did( or did not ) is the best way to pay respect to how brave Gia might have been, in spite of her self-destruction instinct. That why her mother and Sally Linter's words are so precious and relevant. Thank you so much for lighting their truth, a bit different from the HBO movie "GIA"
@GIALOUISE1980 the popular knowledge said she was died of AIDS as result of narcotic (heroin)addiction. But she was also known to have gang-raped by her own drug dealer, i guess...
@GIALOUISE1980 I read about her story. Drugs are extremely powerful. She probably went to very dangerous places given how deep her addiction was. Her drug needs was more powerful than her fear of the worst and most hurtful thing a woman can through (rape). Being so beautiful she was probably forced to have sex for her drugs more times than anyone could know.
@alaina66 When Gia went to rehab, she told the staff that she had done sexual favors for drug money and had been raped by a dealer. So with all that, she could have gotten AIDS from any one of those people.
Louise.. That was powerful..I love to hear people who speak from the heart..Her mother really did love her..You brought her words to life.. You are amazing..
So sad to hear her mum, almost on the verge of tears...they were so close, despite their feuds, and I have a relationship like that w/my mum, so I know how she feels. It is heartbreaking.
You got everything here it's so sadddddd I just want to cry, that part where GIA comes to see Linda to say
goodbye I think that's one of the only parts that was
true about this whole story.........UGHHHHHHHH and as for those drugdealers I hope they burn in hell for doing that to her. Thanxx for sharing all ur vids with me sweetie!!!
