John Stamos Criticized for Bald Cap Gesture

John Stamos has faced significant backlash for wearing a bald cap in a show of support for his former Full House co-star Dave Coulier, who is battling stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Stamos posted photos on Instagram that included him shaving Coulier's head, captioning the images with messages of solidarity and admiration for Coulier's strength. However, many social media users deemed the gesture superficial and insulting, criticizing Stamos for not actually shaving his own head, which they argued would have been a more genuine act of support. Comments on the post suggested that Stamos's actions came off as a publicity stunt rather than a sincere act of empathy. While some defended him, the overall sentiment leaned towards viewing the bald cap as an inadequate means of showing solidarity in the face of serious illness. Coulier reportedly remains optimistic about his treatment, with a 90% chance of being cured.
