Obituary to Christina Applegate chest

Welcome to the Hogtown Gossip Archive. Subscribe to our feed and enjoy!

We were hit with some very sad news yesterday. Christina Applegate is even thinner. Men all over the world mourn.

Born November 25, 1971 (36 currently), Ms. Applegate rose to fame years ago with her role in Married... with Children, playing the part of a stereotypical dumb and beautiful blonde. She built a loyal following of fans and admirers. It is unlikely that the aforementioned show would have survived as long as it did without her.

Few people know much about career, other than the 10-year-run show. Yet she debuted as a child on TV, playing parts alongside her mother and she appeared in far too many shows to mention here, though wikipedia is certainly one way to find out more about her. She's currently playing the lead role in ABC's sitcom Samantha Who?, Samantha Newly. More recently, we watched her playing an annoyed wife in a short video clip made in support of the Writer's (WGA) Strike; more video clips with her in the list:

Here's the list of videos above:

  2. Christina in WGA video as annoyed wife
  3. Sexy Sene
  4. stripper scene
  5. Dirty Dancing
  6. Bundy
  7. Cute Clips

  9. With Cameron Diaz: simulated cunnilingus
  10. Interview
  11. SAG Awards 2008
  12. WGA part II

She was diagnosed with breast cancer in the beginning of August 2008. She then decided to have double mastectomy, even though her diagnosis involved only one breast. A genetic test confirmed she inherited a genetic fault, BRCA1, from her mother Nancy Priddy, also a breast cancer survivor. This genetic fault significantly increases the chances of developing breast cancer.

She will play the role of Elizabeth Montgomery, who died of colorectal cancer, in Everything is Going to Be Just Fine, due to be released in 2009. In 2003, she was also the spokesperson for Lee National Denim Day, which raises million$ for breast cancer education and research. She will also appear on a television special entitled Stand Up to Cancer on September 5, shown on all the major networks and designed to raise funds for breast cancer research.

The cancer diagnosis and mastectomy came after some stressful, unfortunate events in her life. According to wikipedia,

In October 2001, Applegate married longtime boyfriend Johnathon Schaech, in a small mixed-religion Palm Springs ceremony attended by family and close friends. Schaech filed for divorce in November 2005, citing irreconcilable differences; Applegate and Schaech's final divorce papers were entered August 10 2007 in Los Angeles Superior Court. On July 1, 2008, her close friend and ex-boyfriend Lee Grivas was found dead of an apparent drug overdose.

Some men and even women might think that the attention paid to breasts in the media is over the top and unnecessary. Some men might even think that staring at women breasts is healthy. This is, unfortunately, an urban myth. What is not a myth is that men can get breast cancer as well and half die from it.

About 50% of men die from breast cancer (in comparison to 1/3 of the female patients). But only 1% of the patients are men.

That's correct. Men wait much longer before seeing their doctor and by that time it's often too late.

Breast cancer is an excuse for file photos of breasts.
