Christina Applegate has pwned breast cancer. In an interview today on Good Morning America, Christina revealed that doctors were able to successfully remove the cancer, and she's good to go. ABC News reports:

"I'm clear," the star of "Samantha Who?" said. "Absolutely 100 percent clear and clean. ... They got everything out so I'm definitely not going to die from breast cancer."
