Looking Back
Happy Birthday to “Sweetest Thing” Christina Applegate!
As this star of stage and screen turns 43 (no, we can’t believe it either!), let’s take a look back at her career highs and occasional lows. Cancer survivor Applegate has wowed us from the days of Kelly Bundy, her role as a frazzled new mom on the sadly canceled Up All Night. and reprising her role as Veronica Corningstone in Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. But we bet you’ll find a few roles in here that surprise you! By Elizabeth Perkins
Playtex Commercial, 1972
Applegate wasted no time getting into the business, making her small-screen debut with her actress/singer mother Nancy Priddy in this 1972 commercial for Playtex. Little did mother or daughter know what a career this ad would launch! Playtex wasn't the only commercial she starred in, though.... Here's a YouTube clip of Christina in an '80s Mattel Barbie commercial.
