Majella O’Donnell has saved the lives of countless Irish women, according to Hollywood actress Victoria Smurfit.
The stunning actress says Majella’s brave decision to have her hair shaved on live television was inspirational.
And she says her honesty will help other Irish women to go forward and have themselves checked for cancer.
“Oh bless her heart. I have such admiration for her. I didn’t see it but I admire Majella for doing it, as taboos aren’t lifted and conversations are kept I hushed tones until someone opens up about it.
“She has taken it to the next level, which should give women the courage to park the wig, should they choose,” she said.
Victoria says Majella’s decision to go on the Late Late Show to have her hair shaved off will have been worth it – if she even only helps one woman.
“If her honesty drives just one woman to the clinic to b checked then her fears of going on live television will have been worth it,” she said.
The money from Majella’s headshave for the Irish Cancer Society is still rolling in with more than €500,000 already pledged.
