Christina Applegate Receives Standing Ovation at Emmy Awards

Christina Applegate received a standing ovation at the Primetime Emmy Awards.

The 52-year-old actress, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2021, was on hand to present the Emmy Award for outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series.

Applegate was showered in applause as she walked onto the stage with the help of this year’s Emmys host, Anthony Anderson.

“Thank you so much! Oh my God! You’re totally shaming me [and my] disability by standing up,” Applegate quipped. “Body not by Ozempic.”

Applegate most recently appeared in the Netflix series Dead to Me. In an interview last year, Applegate acknowledged that it was unlikely she would ever act on camera again.
