Chris Pratt lived "that glam life" this week with his new pal, Jacob, who's checking things off his bucket list in the wake of a cancer diagnosis. In a sweet Instagram post, Chris explained that the 16-year-old boy was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer, and after undergoing treatment for the past 17 months, he decided to discontinue and begin working through a bucket list.

Along with wanting more Instagram followers (go follow @j8ke.monday [3]!), Jacob wanted to meet the star of his favourite movie β€” Chris, of course β€” and get his hair and makeup done. After Bridget Brager helped the pair get glammed up, Chris and Jacob posed for pictures. During their time together, Chris took over Jacob's Instagram account to share a sweet message about his buddy. "He's hilarious, earnest, honest, and powerful. I love this kid," Chris wrote. "Take a moment to hug your kids." Check out their adorable pictures together, then learn more about Jacob's story and how to help on the Jacob's Wishes GoFundMe page [4].
