Instead, she showed me how to use hot rollers and put on makeup. I remember thinking, So this is how a lady is supposed to act! She taught me how to walk in heels and respond to the judges' questions.
She had to pop me in the mouth a few times for cussing. My jaw dropped when I found out how expensive pageants can be: dresses, shoes, makeup I worked as a roller-skating waitress at Sonic after school--I didn't have that kind of money!
She encouraged me to try out for American Idol and waited in line with me all day, even though she was nine months pregnant. If you look at my audition video, she's the gorgeous pregnant woman standing outside the room when I run out with my golden ticket. She gave birth to her oldest right after that! This past June, almost 10 years after that pageant, Summer was diagnosed with breast cancer. She broke the news in a text message because she couldn't bring herself to tell me out loud; then we spoke on the phone and I immediately flew home to be with her.
A couple of weeks later, she had an appointment with her doctor to discuss the double mastectomy and months of chemotherapy she would need. After her appointment, we went to the gift shop so Summer could try on hats. A breast cancer survivor had told her to shave her head before the first round of chemo, because it would be easier than watching her hair fall out on her pillow.
To see what she would look like, she pulled her hair back into a ponytail and put on a hat. I think that's when the reality of her situation really hit. There was fear in her eyes, a look I had never seen there before, and sadness like I never want to see again. She said, "Oh, my gosh! I'm going to lose all of my hair," and started to cry.
For a woman to lose her breasts and then every inch of hair from the top of her head to her lashes--that cuts to the core of what we consider feminine. I didn't want Summer to go through that alone. So I said, "Summer, quit saying, ' I'm going to lose all my hair. Considering Pickler only made it to sixth place on the singing show, it's quite an accomplishment that she's been able to make a name for herself in the music industry — especially since some singers who come in first place can't even get people to remember their names we're looking at you, Taylor Hicks.
And although her southern charm and pearly whites might have aided to her fame, there's no doubt that she's got talent to prop her up. However, her looks and voice aren't the only reason people remember her — she totally shaved off all of her hair in and not like in a Britney-Spears-manic-meltdown kind of way. The singer shaved her head in support of her friend Summer Holt Miller who was diagnosed with breast cancer.
That's some serious friendship right there. Pickler later took to Twitter and described the experience as "one of the most incredible days of [her] life.
