HOLLYWOOD — Christina Applegate will make her first public appearance since announcing she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis when a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame honoring her is unveiled Monday.
Applegate will be joined in speaking at the 11:30 a.m. ceremony at 7007 Hollywood Blvd., across from The Hollywood Roosevelt hotel, by Katey Sagal, who played her mother on “Married … with Children,” and David Faustino, who played her brother on the 1987-97 Fox comedy, Linda Cardellini, her co-star on “Dead to Me,” and Liz Feldman, its creator.
Applegate was cast later in 1987 in her most famous role, the sexy and sarcastic Kelly Bundy, after the actors who first played the Bundy children in the “Married… with Children” pilot, Tina Caspary and Hunter Carson, were dropped because the show’s producers worried about a lack of chemistry between them and O’Neill and Sagal.
“They came back to me, and I said no. And they’re like, ‘Can we just send you the pilot? And if you like it, come in and read with a couple of other kids?’ My mom and I were like, uccch! — like that. Literally, like we were, like, ‘Ucch, toilet humor!’ We were seriously such snobs about it.” Applegate reprised the role the following season, receiving another Emmy nomination in the category, but lost to Laura Linney, who won for her recurring role on the final season of the NBC comedy “Frasier” as a matchmaking agent Frasier Crane falls for.
