Teddi Mellencamp has officially ditched the glam squad and gone full superhero mode. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star hit the red carpet at the Unforgettable Evening cancer research fundraiser looking like Professor X meets red carpet royalty โ and weโre living for it.
The 43-year-old badass (and walking reminder that you can be both vulnerable and unstoppable) recently shared that sheโs fighting stage 4 melanoma that has spread to her lungs and brain. But rather than hide away, she pulled a full “watch me werk” and showed up to Beverly Hills with her shaved head held high โ because hair is temporary, but fierce energy is forever.
She rolled up to the event with fellow RHOBH alum and drama co-pilot Kyle Richards. No catfights this time, just hugs, high heels, and hope. The event, hosted by the Womenโs Cancer Research Fund, raised money for breast cancer research โ and also raised the bar on how to look fabulous while flipping cancer the bird.
Doctors gave Teddi a 50/50 shot at beating the disease, but knowing her Housewives track record of surviving dinner parties from hell, sheโs clearly not one to back down from a challenge.
So hereโs to Teddi โ whoโs making bald look bold, sick look strong, and the red carpet look like a battlefield where cancer doesnโt stand a chance.
Weโre rooting for you, Teddi. Now go show melanoma it messed with the wrong Mellencamp.
