Luckily for Angelina Jolie, she was able to make a preventative move and have a double mastectomy after learning about her increased risk. For some of these other brave celebrities, though, the fight began AFTER their diagnosis!

All are inspiring!!

Christina Applegate was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008 because of a mutation in a gene passed down from her mother, also a breast cancer survivor.

To make sure she'd be disease free, she had a double mastectomy.

While she's come to terms with being a cancer survivor she still knows things are different, saying:

"I miss my exquisite breasts sometimes."

That's a reference to a line in her movie Anchorman! Ha!

But she did actually have a pretty tough time, dealing with something so personal so publicly.

Dental surgery, that is!

Still, even dental surgery can be super scary!

Apparently Christina Applegate was filming an episode of her show Up All Night when she felt a sharp pain in her mouth… then found that half her back molar had broken off, leaving the nerve exposed!

AHHH it hurts us just to imagine it!!

Here's what she said about it:

We always knew Will Arnett was skinny, as well as HIGHlarious, but we had no idea he was so RIPPED!

In a promotional image for his new movie Up All Night he and Christina Applegate are splashing around in the suds from an overflowing washer.

He's in his undies and boy are we glad he is.

Look at those CUT abs! It's crazy!

Funny and ripped?? That's one heck of a combo!

A source said:

Christina Applegate had her own battle with breast cancer, and it's so wonderful that she has reached out to Giuliana Rancic and has offered to be there for her during her own fight during treatment!

"I'm here for her. I know that journey so well, how that feels [to get] that phone call. I get what's she's going through."

So wonderful! As we said earlier, Giuliana has a lot of support behind her. We're sure all this positivity will help out!

Hope everything is going well, Giuliana!

And she looks pretty adorbs while preggers!

Although Christina Applegate is used to a very strict diet and exercise regimen, she is giving into her food cravings while pregnant with her first child - and she knows it's a good thing!

The actress said:

“I crave food! I don’t care what it is! I came here and within 30 seconds I had a Sprinkles cupcake and a bunch of fried cheese. I eat macrobiotics for the most part, and I eat really well … until I came here.

It’s a challenge getting dressed, like to figure out proportion, because if you wear like skinny jeans then you look like Humpty Dumpty! I’m learning how to balance.”

Keep it up, honey. You're looking fab.
