Lance Bass, Barry Watson Stand by Christina Applegate

Emmy nominee Christina Applegate has some famous friends showing her support after her recent breast cancer diagnosis.

"She is doing amazing and can fight any challenge life throws at her," rumored Dancing With the Stars contestant Lance Bass tells Us.

Christina's Samantha Who? co-star Barry Watson adds, "I know Christina really well, and I know she will get through this with a positive attitude and a great sense of humor."

Watson himself was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma at the age of 28. He underwent a year of treatment before going into remission.

Luckily Applegate, whose mother is a cancer survivor, caught the disease in an early stage.

You'll kick Big C to the curb, too, Christina!

Quotables /

“Christina's mother, actress Nancy Priddy, is a breast cancer survivor. The Superficial hopes for a similar outcome and wishes Christina a full and speedy recovery.”

The Superficial

“In some morose irony, Applegate is set to appear on the Stand Up For Cancer telethon on Sept. 5 alongside celebrities like Meryl Streep, Sally Field and others.

We wish her a full and speedy recovery. We're rooting for you, Kelly Bundy!”

I think that it is awesome that Christina didn't stop filming Samantha Who? during this whole ordeal. I love that show, but more importantly I love her. If there are any fans I found this awesome video about Samantha Who? You can check it out at:
