We were so sad when we heard that Samantha Who? star Christina Applegate was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. But after a tough battle, she overcame the odds and is now cancer-free!

She recently appeared on Ellen and explained how difficult it was to attend events because "people are really huggy at those things." She and Ellen bonded at the Stand Up to Cancer fundraiser with fellow cancer sufferer Patrick Swayze and other stars such as Jennifer Aniston. Ellen apologized for hugging Christina at the event, but Christina said she's good now. Hugs all around! You deserve 'em, Christina!
