Christina Applegate’s dying wish is to do “shots with Cher” amid multiple sclerosis diagnosis

The "Dead to Me" actress shared some activities she hopes to accomplish "with the days I have left in life."

During the summer of 2021, Christina Applegate announced that she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Since then, she has openly discussed her journey and efforts to raise awareness about the autoimmune disease. On Tuesday, the actress shared some activities she hopes to accomplish "with the days I have left in life."

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Applegate wrote, "There are things I want to do with the days I have left in life," She added, "I want to work with Shirley MacLaine And do shots with cher! And yes my days are so big. Just saying."

Applegate has expressed her admiration for Shirley MacLaine, the acclaimed actress known for her roles in "Terms of Endearment," "Coco Chanel," "Steel Magnolias," and more recently, her appearances in "Downton Abbey" and "Only Murders in the Building."

In June, the "Dead to Me" actress posted on social media, "I wish I could work with Shirley MacLaine That's all. Woke up and that dream I have had for my whole life, washed over me."

"And I wept for a minute. And I'm sure I will again. Oh and Shirley, I don't have your number anymore so……."

The beloved actress received a standing ovation at the January Emmy Awards while presenting the Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy award. Lightening the mood, Applegate joked, "You're totally shaming me, with a disability, by standing up - it's fine!"

This year, she launched the podcast "MeSsy" with co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who revealed in 2016 that she was diagnosed with MS at 20. Together, they discuss their shared experiences with MS and aim to support others facing similar challenges.
