Crazy Sexy Cancer Video

Crazy Sexy Cancer

DVD Only - $19.98
“Cancer needed a makeover, and I was just the gal to do it!” says cancer survivor Kris Carr about her documentary that chronicles a different kind of journey with this life-changing disease.

Both outrageously entertaining and poignant, the story finds Carr exiting her acting career to film her encounters as a newly diagnosed cancer patient. Turned off by cancer’s doom and gloom image, she teams up with her band of crazy, sexy “Cancer Posse” girlfriends — from a luminous Glamour editor to a fiery rock-concert tour producer.

Together they film the dark and scary as well as the “silly, fun, real and practical” sides of living with cancer. You’ll cry and you’ll laugh out loud as these brave women learn how to salvage their dignity, spirit, style, and sense of humor when the “hospital ball” turns their lives inside out.

Over one hour of special features including: 25 minute healing yoga routine and guided relaxation with award-winning instructor Rodney Yee; ways to find your Om; Get juiced — in the kitchen with Kris Carr; simple detox methods; and deleted scenes and extended interviews.
