Christina Applegate breast cancer

This past weekend Christina Applegate’s rep (Ame Van Iden) announced that Christina has been diagnosed with early stages of breast cancer. Her rep said, “Benefitting from early detection through a doctor-ordered MRI, the cancer is not life threatening…Christina is following the recommended treatment of her doctors and will have a full recovery…No further statement will be issued at this time.”

She will resume shooting Samantha Who in the Fall, but for now I hope she has a speedy recovery.

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    Wish her the best. Nice pic of Christina from her MWC days, reminding us of what made her famous. That’s some tank top . . . not hard to spot breast cancer early when you’re wearing a top like that. No mammogram necessary.

    Upon further scholarly study of that picture (LOL), I think that had to be someone having a little fun with photoshop. I don’t think that would get past even Fox’s censors. Nads, where did you find that picture?
