Christina Applegate with host, Oprah Winfrey

Christina Applegate, an Emmy Award-winning American actress, known for playing Kelly Bundy on the long-running FOX Broadcasting Company sitcom Married… with Children, will kick off National Breast Cancer Awareness Month on The Oprah Winfrey Show by setting the record straight about her breast cancer. She recently had a double mastectomy and is now cancer free, without having undergone chemo.

The upcoming episode will be aired on Tuesday, September 30, so please mark your calendar. Also, check out the 35-second promotional video clip.

Also on the show will be Nancy Brinker, who brought breast cancer to the forefront after founding the Susan G. Komen Foundation, and subsequently the 5K Race for the Cure. To date, the foundation has raised over $11 billion for the cause!
