Los Angeles is home to the Lakers, half of Mexico, and now celebrty breast cancer. Though there’s no current proof, it’s believed that the smog in Los Angeles might be attributed to the cancer of women’s breasts. Proof of this is actress Christina Applegate, who is reportedly undergoing treatment for breast cancer.
Ame Van Iden, publicist for the 36-year-old actress, released a statement late Saturday.
“Christina Applegate was diagnosed with an early form of breast cancer. Benefiting 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.”
Applegate has earned Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for her starring role in ABC’s comedy Samantha Who? Applegate plays the title character, a young career woman who awakens from an eight-day coma remembering nothing about her past.
She is among the celebrities scheduled to appear on the Stand Up to Cancer one-hour television special to be aired on ABC, CBS and NBC on Sept. 5 to raise funds for cancer research.
