He shaved the side of his head in a zig-zag pattern which garnered odd comments and looks from his fans. Twitter erupted with a range of reactions when his new look was revealed to the world. According to various unconfirmed reports, it appears that the zig zag pattern on his head was meant to mimic the scars of a 10 month old boy that had recently undergone brain surgery. Erik Ortiz Cruz suffers from cortical dysplasia, a condition that can lead to as many as 30 seizures a day. Earlier this year, Cristiano offered to foot the bill for his young fan's surgery after little Erik captured his heart. Erik underwent his successful surgery in March.
