Kellie Pickler Thanks Fans For Support After Shaving Her Head

Kellie Pickler shocked her fans earlier this week when she shaved off her golden locks. But the country star didn’t shave her head to make some radical fashion statement. No, Pickler shaved her head to support her longtime friend, Summer Holt Miller, who is battling breast cancer.
Needless to say, Pickler has seen an outpouring of support from her fans for the generous gesture.
Ellen DeGeneres wrote: ”You have never looked more beautiful.”
Another fan wrote: “WOW!! You are an amazing friend to Summer!! I can only hope that my friends would do the same for me!”
Pickler thanked her fans, and Ellen, on Twitter writing:
“”I cannot thank everyone enough for all the love and support you’ve given Summer… Chemo starts tomorrow. #SayAPrayerForSummer”
And:
“Thank you so much Ellen. You made my day! Hope to see you soon! Xo
”
Pickler’s gesture will hopefully make life a little easier for her friend. Miller, however, believes that Pickler’s gesture reaches far beyond her life.
Of Pickler’s head-shaving, Miller says that not only is the gesture sweet, but the singer’s star power could also save lives:
“If this compels even one person to change their mentality toward waiting until the age of 40 for their mammogram, then it will be worth it…”
What do you think of Kellie Pickler’s bald head?

Beautiful! she is a true friend!

A beautiful gesture. Now if she just learns some geography… "I thought Europe was a country." Oh, and what color is that stubble?

I am not a big Country Music fan, never have been much of a Kellie Pickler fan, but all that has changed. I will listen, I will buy I will promote Kellie's music. She is a beloved person, with a beautiful personality, and I, along wih Ellen, think she has never been more beautiful. Kellie, you are another good reason for me to love the American People. Thanks. G'Luck to Sommer, and I am sure you are giving her lots of strength.

I think she is a beautiful person & defintely a true friend! She looks great with a shaved head & so does Summer! Will be praying for you Summer!

Why stop with hair…..chop off a leg or two. This is rediculous because it won't make anyone better. If you are concerned about their feelings then send them a card and a plant. Better yet…..visit them!
Sep 8, 2012
Hair will grow back on her in a year or so. Mine has been gone for most of my adult life.It is only hair!
Sep 8, 2012
I think Kellie is a rare girl who has stayed humble and kind in a world of cheap bimbos and ruthless sharks.
Sep 8, 2012
Kellie is just good people!
Sep 8, 2012
Flat out, Kelly Pickler… you are my hero!
Sep 8, 2012
I think everyone has the right to support their friends as THEY see fit…not me…not you. So, you go see a sick friend and try to be a little more charitable to others. K?
Sep 8, 2012
I totally agree with Ellen Degeneres and with Judy. Kellie looks stunning and Summer looks equally beautiful! Hang in there Summer! I wish you strength and courage to get through this. You clearly have a wonderful support system!
Sep 8, 2012
Ellen said it right. she has never looked more beautiful! Kelly Pickler is a very special person, loving, caring and beautiful inside and out! Love you Kelly! Prayingfor Summer to kick cancer's butt!
Sep 8, 2012
Kellie is even more gorgeous now!
Sep 8, 2012
Luv her, too, She's a girl next door with such an incredible talent n feelings!
Sep 8, 2012
Ollie you are a clueless human being. Summer is like a big sister to Kellie and you might be the one jerk in the crowd with A negative remark!
Sep 8, 2012
Wow dude you obviously are missing the point completely. It is a gesture that says "You're not alone in this. I'll be here supporting you all the way". It has much more meaning than any plant or card ever could.
Sep 8, 2012
Anyone who can't spell the word ridiculous correctly, particularly given the meaning of the word in the given situation, speaks for itself. You Sir, ARE Ridiculous!

I love her. She is jewel.
Sep 9, 2012
I think it's a very supportive thing to do but does she realize that her friends hair won't grow out back for at least 6 months and she will lose her eyelashes and eyebrows too.

She broke? Seems like she could have just picked up the tab.
Sep 9, 2012
Who the fuck is Kelly Pickerel, and why the fuck do I care?

Sep 9, 2012
John you are an ass.
Sep 9, 2012
Yes she is a jewel. and Idel, I love her sense of humor too. I would have loved to have a daughter like her!
Sep 9, 2012
That was a good support gesture, but totally bald for you, I am not sure about, you had nice hair, hopefully it will grow back before it gets too cold outside……………I once got my hair cut short when it was starting to grow and I never got it cut since, it takes a long time to grow back at my age…………Good Luck to your friend……..
Sep 9, 2012
@Ollie Whetstone,you are just a rude worthless person!!
Sep 9, 2012
Can we say RUDE John,go back under your rock !
Sep 9, 2012
I am a huge Country Music Fan! I have watched her since being on American Idle, which I voted for her everytime! Kellie is a wonderful human being, a beautiful Lady, a great singer, and as she has proved, a Special Friend! You don't find them everyday! Kellie, I wish you and your special friend the very best in life! Love Ya, Lady!
Sep 9, 2012
John you have no idea about kellie's intellegence. Perhaps she's not a geography expert, but I would bet she knows a lot more about Country music and music in general.
Sep 9, 2012
That is a true friend.
Sep 9, 2012
I saw a You Tube video where she was in a contest wit a kid, she was pretending that she doesn't know where's Italy. Very funny, look for it!
Sep 9, 2012
I have to be honest. I am not a fan of Country Music, and I didn't even know who Kellie Pickler was. But I do now, and I think that both her and her friend Summer are beautiful.
Sep 9, 2012
Kellie, you are a beautiful person on the inside and out! Blessing to you and your friend! I had breast cancer nine years ago. I know what it like to lose your hair.
Sep 9, 2012
God Bless you Kellie and Summer. You are in our prayers.
Sep 9, 2012
I'd lick her starhole, and show her my "Pickler Tickler"!
Sep 10, 2012
God Bless you Kelly, I am a breast cancer survivor and will pray for Summer, Its a very tough road that's for sure. I'm sure she is very happy to have you on her side. She needs you now more than ever. You are truly a blessed friend. Love and much hugs Trisha Kurish Maclennan.
Sep 10, 2012
I pray for you Ollie that you or a loved one will never have to go through what I have had to endure. Breast cancer is not a a walk in the park. Its very painful and you get very lonely. Its painful inside and out. I still am going through bouts of lonliness and its very hard. even when you have people around you. Dont get me started on the depression. Please in the future dont be so heartless unless you have gone through it.
Sep 10, 2012
Ollie I would refer you to a country song called "Find Out Who Your Friends Are" by Tracy Lawrence.
Kellie is a good person. Something people outside of the country music community are now seeing.
Sep 10, 2012
kelly you are some one with real class.
Sep 10, 2012
This is how you raise breast cancer awareness, not with all the pink-ribbon-labeled crap. Kellie has done a selfless act of love for her friend. I know, I've been battling it for two years. Good luck to Summer.
Sep 10, 2012
I think they are both beautiful, its what's on the inside that counts, not what you look like on the outside. Stick by your friend Kellie.
Sep 10, 2012
I shows that you care, solidarity, one with the cause. Of coarse it is not a cure you moron. If some was going through something major wouldn't you do what you can to ease there mind and spirit. I would do as much as I could for a friend, good friend, best friend and/ or family member. So you selfish S.O.B. pull your head out of your ass and listen for that pop.Then think of some one other than yourself.

Europe is a continent. There are countries in Europe ie; France, Germany, Spain, Great Britain, Ireland, Scottland, Wales, Belgium, Poland, ect…….

I have a friend "Peaches" that would do you aaaaalllllllllllll night loooooooong. You would wish you stayed a virgin. Then Bubba her brother has been without for awhile
:):):):):0:0:0

I think Kellie shaving her head is a wonderful gesture to Summer but also to all women battling breast cancer. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Feb. 2012 and recently completed treatment. Kellie shaving her hair will bring attention to a disease that can affect women as well as some men. Women~Have your mammograms. Thanks Kellie. You look beautiful and are a true friend to Summer. Good Luck to Summer and best wishes for a complete recovery!

Hope you have a wonderful birthday, you certainly deserve a great one. Hope you are feeling better now your treatment is done.
