John Stamos Trolled for Wearing Bald Cap With Dave Coulier Shaves Friend’s Head Amid Chemo Treatment

Since I’ve only recently started my cancer adventure, I apologize for the numerous unfavorable remarks.

This is how John and I are navigating a really difficult period in our friendship. My motivation is comedy, and I’m a comedian. As a sincere and devoted friend and brother, John never fails to lift my spirits, and I burst out laughing when he showed up sporting a bald cap.

While John Stamos is demonstrating his support for his friend and former TV co-star Dave Coulier in his fight against severe cancer, some online users are criticizing his approach and accusing him of not being adequately dedicated to the cause.

Stamos shared a couple images of fellow “Full House” star Coulier on Instagram. The photos showed Stamos shaving Coulier’s head and sporting a bald cap. Coulier is undergoing chemotherapy following a recent cancer diagnosis.

 

Coulier is fighting a severe type of cancer called stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The buddies are both grinning in the photo of Stamos shaving Coulier’s head, and Stamos admits that he applied some Photoshop magic to make the bald wig blend in. In a third image, John and Melissa, Dave’s wife, are seen kissing Dave’s recently shaven dome.

 

Because no good act goes unpunished, however, Stamos is being called out by online trolls for being “shallow.”

 

Stamos’ choice to wear a bald hat was criticized by a number of comments. According to some, wearing a bald hat was not a big commitment to his pal. “Seriously just couldn’t shave your head bro?” responded one.

Another reader stated, “I feel like you’re using Dave’s diagnoses to make yourself more likeable,” while another added “You made sure to post it on Instagram to get those likes too.”

Just last week, Coulier made his illness public and started treatment. In the 1990s, Stamos and Coulier, who are both in their 60s, costarred in the popular family program “Full House”; co-star Bob Saget passed away in 2022 due to a head injury. They collaborated on “Fuller House,” the show’s relaunch.

He’s in the 90-percent “curable” zone, according to Coulier, and he certainly seems to appreciate John’s gesture. Watch out, trolls!
