It's an announcement that shocked fans of The House Party. Last October, Dave Coulier, known for his iconic role as Joey Gladstone in the cult series, revealed that he suffered fromstage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. A difficult ordeal for the 65-year-old actor, who shows admirable courage in the face of illness.
Fortunately, the actor can visibly count on the unwavering support of his former comrades. Among them, John Stamos, alias Jesse Katsopolis, sent him a message full of tenderness and solidarity: “My brother since day one. I love you, Dave Coulier, and I will always be by your side, until the end.“ A touching statement which testifies to the deep friendship between the two men, well beyond the film sets.
John Stamos: strong support for Dave Coulier
Determined to keep his promise, John Stamos recently used his social networks to prove that he is indeed staying by his friend's side in this difficult moment.
“Nothing like putting on a fake bald head and showing off some Photoshop skills to express all my love and solidarity with my brother Dave Coulier. You handle this with so much strength and positivity — it's inspiring. I know you will get through this, and I'm proud to be by your side every step of the way. I love you. (PS – @melissacoulier is the best of all – your true pillar in life!)“, he wrote in the caption of a publication on which he appears as bald as his accomplice.
The actor in the viewfinder of Internet users
If John Stamos' gesture touched many Internet users, it did not escape certain criticism. Several fans have indeed highlighted a “false support”criticizing the actor for not following through with shaving his head for good.
“SHAVE YOUR HEAD! 'Solidarity'… With a bald cap? Don't annoy me“, one fan was indignant. “So he doesn't really support it. He poses for a photo shoot“, added another. And a third added: “Seriously, you just couldn't shave your head?“Or again:”I hate being that person, but it's more insulting to put on a bald cap than not to shave your head. A person with cancer does not have a 'cap' that they can take off.“A bad buzz for the actor…
