Hollywood star Christina Applegate is known for her roles on Married with Children, the Anchorman movies, and in the Netflix dark comedy Dead to Me, among many others.
When she shared the photo below, of her in a “human abducted by an alien” Halloween costume with bare feet, she cleverly captioned it, “You don’t know sexy until you are sexy.”

When Applegate’s fans started to reply with questions including “What are you suppose to be and why you so short lol,” she replied with humor, “These are dumb questions. I was an alien abducting someone. And I am short because of DNA. HAHA.” (Note: Christina Applegate is reportedly 5’5.”)
I have a very important ceremony coming up. This will be my first time out since diagnosed with MS. Walking sticks are now part of my new normal. Thank you @neowalksticks for these beauties. Stay tuned to see which ones make the cut for a week of stuff. pic.twitter.com/O543p1G4vS

On a more serious note, fans are also asking sincere questions regarding Applegate’s health: she has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. When one fan (who has relapsing-remitting MS) asked “do you have progressive MS?,” Applegate replied, “RRMS” (which is relapsing-remitting MS). She is using a cane, as seen from the collection above.
