James Van Der Beek sells merch from his 1999 classic Varsity Blues to help pay for his cancer treatments
As a die-hard fan of James Van Der Beek, I’ve followed his career since the days of Dawson’s Creek. But this time, it’s not just about acting; it’s about courage, resilience, and an unwavering spirit that has left me in awe. Four weeks ago, when he announced his diagnosis with cancer, I felt a pang of fear and sadness for the man who had brought so much joy to my life through his work. But then, I saw him rallying his troops, turning a daunting battle into a call to arms for hope, love, and positivity.
Actor James Van Der Beek, known for the 1999 film “Varsity Blues,” is now offering merchandise from this movie to assist with his own cancer treatment costs as well as those of other patients in need.
As a lifestyle aficionado, allow me to share an intriguing tidbit from my cinematic journey. I found myself at the heart of an engaging coming-of-age drama, where high school football took center stage. In this production, I stood alongside acting heavyweights such as Jon Voight, Paul Walker, and Scott Caan.
Four weeks past, I found myself disclosing my diagnosis – stage three colorectal cancer. However, I stand here today in a state of tranquility, buoyed by strength.
During the 25th anniversary year of the movie, it’s been disclosed that he’s partially funding his treatment expenses by selling autographed Varsity Blues jerseys.
As a special tribute to the movie, the shirts have been designed to resemble the jersey sported by the character James plays, namely Jonathan ‘Mox’ Moxon.
He noted on his Instagram page: ‘100% of my net proceeds will go to families recovering from the financial burden of cancer (including my own).’
On Black Friday, James activated his Instagram account and encouraged followers to “Place your order now and receive a signed item by Christmas,” while simultaneously highlighting the hashtag “#CancerIsCostly” to emphasize its financial burdens.
Last week, I excitedly revealed my latest merchandise line on my Instagram account, sharing a series of photos showcasing me wearing the new jersey while ‘My Hero’ by Foo Fighters played in the background.
Thrilled to mark the 25th anniversary of #Varsity Blues with a special, limited edition #4 Moxon jersey, personally signed by me! You can get yours quickly through the link in my bio or visit JVDB.Shop directly.
James is also set to join an array of renowned figures participating in a Fox TV event, where they’ll remove their clothing to promote understanding and prevention efforts for colorectal, testicular, and prostate cancers.
Titled “The Real Full Monty,” this special program will feature stars like Broadway actor Taye Diggs, dance expert Bruno Tonioli from “Dancing with the Stars,” and NFL player Chris Jones from the Kansas City Chiefs.
During his ongoing struggle with his illness, James celebrated Thanksgiving this week by expressing his heartfelt appreciation for his extraordinarily supportive spouse, Kimberly.
In 2010, they tied the knot and currently reside on a sprawling 36-acre ranch in Texas with their six kids: Olivia (age 14), Joshua (12), Annabel (10), Emilia (8), Gwendolyn (6), and the youngest, Jeremiah (3).
He expressed that this year has been quite challenging… yet, he’s grateful for every bit of it. He mentioned how cancer has steered his life in a new direction, as he accompanied the Instagram photo of himself with his family.
‘I’m deeply grateful for the experience of understanding true friendship, especially during times when I couldn’t have imagined asking for it. Friends came through in ways that were incredibly meaningful to me.’
He added: ‘I’m grateful for this new relationship I have to my body, and what I feed it. I’m grateful to each and every one of you who has reached out and sent good vibes and prayers. It all lands and makes a difference.’
In a heartfelt message, James expressed his deepest gratitude: ‘My extraordinary wife, @vanderkimberly, continually amazes me with her superhuman abilities. She has taught me the meaning of unconditional love and demonstrated the enchantment that arises from it. I am awestruck by your strength.’
To express this sentiment differently, you might say: “Among my children, I penned: ‘Indeed, I am immeasurably grateful for the miniature blonde troop of heartfelt individuals who manage to keep me aware, engaged, and motivated simply by existing. I adore each one of you immensely.’
He concluded by wishing a happy Thanksgiving to his 1.6 million Instagram followers and thanking photographer Claiborne Swanson Frank for the snap.
