CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- Supporters of President Hugo Chavez shaved their heads in solidarity with their leader's struggle against cancer on Sunday as hundreds prayed and sang at a televised event.

Barbers shaved off the hair of several men and at least one woman while the crowd swayed to a religious song. Chavez, bald from chemotherapy, smiled, clapped with the music and waved to the crowd.

Those attending included a group of six from the Dominican Republic who shaved their heads outside the Venezuelan Embassy in their country on Friday. Chavez greeted the Dominicans with hugs and stood arm-in-arm with them.

Pro-Chavez lawmaker Robert Serra said in a message on Twitter that "Venezuelan young people and priests cut their hair... in solidarity."

Young men with close-cropped hair stood in the crowd as shouts of "Hallelujah!" and "Amen!" rose at the end of a song.

I'd like to suggest that they now shave their butts & then, hang a pork chop around their necks, so that people can tell the difference.......and.....at least their dogs will still love them, too. Thank you.
