Criss Angel shaves 5-year-old son’s head amid cancer battle

Criss Angel shaved his 5-year-old son’s head as the little boy battles cancer once again.

The 52-year-old magician shared a video on Instagram of him asking his son, Johnny Crisstopher Sarantakos, if he would prefer to let his hair fall out as a side effect of his cancer treatment or if he’d rather cut it, saying: “It’s up to you.”

It appears Johnny opted to cut it because the footage shows Angel taking scissors and a buzzer to his son’s hair. In a separate photo, Johnny has a very short buzz cut.

“We must embrace what we can’t control with courage, strength and forever love. #CelebrateLife #2020,” he wrote alongside the post.

Angel announced in early December that his son’s cancer had returned.

He was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when he was 2 years old and had been in treatment until this fall, when Johnny’s mother, Shaunyl Benson, shared on Instagram that the couple’s son was finally cancer-free.
