Val Kilmer Shocks Fans, Makes Rare Public Appearance

Posted on Author Joann Scheffler

Val Kilmer shocked his fans by making a very rare public appearance on Sunday night for his TwainMania Foundation according to MSN reports.

It is very rare these days that Val Kilmer, 59, leaves his home to venture out publicly. Val strolled the carpet with his 23-year-old son Jack by his side.

The “Top Gun” star oddly donned a pair of binoculars hanging outside of a black leather jacket. He was not without what has become his traditional neck scarf and appeared in good spirits as he stopped to chat with adoring fans before going inside.

In all of my life, all I have ever wanted to do is to use art to educate. As an actor this materializes in the effort to always be entertaining and with flair. Building on that notion, I've always strived to deliver the qualities that my characters had to possess and for a good many, somehow they have lived on. I reckon it is because I have never failed to find a deep and absolutely committed truth that I could believe in and respect. This same dedication is what I have brought to the @twainmania – along with Brad and Dom, who have dedicated their lives to proving there is an inspiration in education that this kind of curriculum will be the litmus test. Last night we got to share our know-how and spirit and plan to prove it right here in Los Angeles, if you give us the chance. Though we can only achieve this nationally, with like-minded believers like you. I can't thank all my friends, who manage to join me, enough. Sanam de Loren of @delorendesign and @santiagoarana with The Agency, sincere gratitude for welcoming me and my guests to your Sky Lane house. And thank YOU for taking your time read this. I hope you’ll take a moment to support this crucial cause. Let's bring empathy, tolerance and literacy to schools together.

As previously reported, Kilmer in 2015 Kilmer began sparking health concerns after the actor began to appear noticeably thin and began wearing scarfs around his face and neck leading many to believe he was battling throat cancer.

For years Val’s appearance kept fans worried about his obviously declining health. Despite fan concerns, Kilmer continued to deny dealing with any medical issues.

In 2018, health concerns regarding Val once again began surfacing in the celebrity news reports. Val did finally admit that he had been dealing with throat cancer for the past three years.

The star had attempted to keep his condition hidden from the public only recently coming forward and admitting his illness. In December of last year, Kilmer opened up about his cancer fight, revealing how the diagnosis changed his entire outlook on life. “I was too serious,” Kilmer told The Hollywood Reporter of his career before cancer. “I’d get upset when things like Oscars and recognition failed to come my way.”

Today Val claims he focuses on his health and the important things in life and living and spending time with his family and friends. It was also reported that close friend and Top Gun co-star Tom Cruise revealed that he and Scientology cured Val of his cancer.

Despite, Val’s miraculous cancer recovery, Val has never admitted, nor denied Tom Cruise’s participation in his recovery. In fact, Val Kilmer and Tom Cruise are set to hit the big screen together once again in the upcoming sequel to their hit film Top Gun: Maverick which will hit theaters June 26, 2020.
