A fan named Cash Jacobs is facing a stage III breast cancer diagnosis, and she recently posted a video asking Miley Cyrus to shave her head. Hair loss is one of the most emotionally loaded parts of cancer treatment, and Cash wanted to make that moment her own. Miley’s team reached out, arranged for her to attend the October 18 Hollywood Bowl show, and flew her to LA for it.
After the concert, backstage, Miley picked up the clippers herself and shaved Cash’s head while telling her,“You can be soft and strong at the same time.”Cash shared the footage on October 21 and wrote that Miley is the“softest, coolest, KINDEST and most genuine human being I’ve ever had the privilege of meeting.”She also got tickets to the second night’s show.
These Hollywood Bowl dates were Miley’s first full concerts in four years, and she used the moment for something bigger than music. Cash says the experience supported her through“one of the scariest and most intimate moments”of her life. What’s the kindest thing an artist has ever done for a fan that stuck with you?
