Kellie Pickler, the Ultimate Cancer Buddy.



Kellie Pickler is best known for her upbeat personality, southern accent, and beautiful golden-blonde hair.  But recently Kellie made a drastic change to her physical appearance by shaving her head!  No, she didn’t pull a 2007 Britney Spears…Kellie made a stand against cancer when her best friend, Summer Holt Miller, was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in June of 2012.  The “Tough” singer has proven her love by stating on the Ellen Degeneres Show, “It’s just hair!” 

Kellie has been affected by cancer before when her grandmother died from the disease the morning after she was diagnosed. Kellie has witnessed firsthand how consuming cancer can be and plans to be there for Summer.  Kellie is completely committed to their friendship and will help through chemo treatments side effects as well as moral support through this scary time in her life.  

Maybe if there were more people like Kellie Pickler in the world, acceptance and love would be more widespread than hate.  Hats off to Kellie Pickler for using her platform to educate others about selflessness, but more importantly let’s pray that Summer beats cancer.
