Remember that tear-jerking episode of Sex & the City where Smith shaved his head as a gesture to show his support of Samantha when she got cancer? That's kind of what's going on this weekend as part of the global fundraising effort by St. Baldrick's, an organization that's leading the fight against childhood cancer.
St. Baldrick's was founded only a decade ago by 17 people in Pasadena who didn't want to waste their St. Patrick's Day getting day drunk. Instead, they vowed to raise $17,000 on March 17. The event more than surpassed expectations, raising $104,000.
