Actress Christina Applegate will be attending the 28th Critics’ Choice Awards which will be her first award show following her diagnosis with multiple sclerosis. She announced her appearance on the show through a tweet on January 12, 2023, which stated:
“So this Sunday will be the first awards show I have been to since 2019. And the first since Ms. Nervous! But grateful to the @CriticsChoice for including me.”

“I’ve had an incredibly hard year, and today this made me smile. Much love to my peers and to my sweet Jean Smart and the other incredible ladies I walk beside.”
The latest season of Dead to Me premiered on Netflix on November 17, 2022, and has received positive feedback from critics and audiences alike. Applegate plays the lead role as Jen Harding. The rest of the cast members of Dead to Me include Linda Cardellini, James Marsden, Max Jenkins, Sam McCarthy, and Luke Roessler, among others.
Christina Applegate was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in August 2021
Christina Applegate disclosed her diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in August 2021 and posted a tweet where the actress said that she has received support from all those who have the same problem. She added:
“It’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some a****le blocks it. As one of my friends that has MS said, ‘We wake up and take the indicated action.’ And that’s what I do. So now I ask for privacy. As I go through this thing. Thank you xo.”
Back in October last year, Applegate disclosed that she was preparing to attend her first event since her diagnosis. She shared some photos of her walking sticks on Twitter and wrote that she had to choose anyone for the event. The Dead to Me actress thanked the walking sticks company for sending the sticks and told her followers to stay tuned for the one that will be her final choice.
Applegate also mentioned that she used activator poles after being advised in the comments. However, she was searching for something fancier. The actress stated that she loves her activator poles, but they said FUMS, so she was unsure if it was appropriate.
