Actress wanted record of what her boobs looked like
Thursday, 2 October 2008
Christina Applegate posed in the buff before getting her breasts removed.
The actress, 36, had a double mastectomy in August after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
‘I did my first and last nudie photoshoot at home,’ she says.
‘I made sure that I have close-up photographs of them from every angle, so I can remember them.’
Christina initially had doubts about the procedure because of her mum's poor mastectomy 30 years ago.
She will begin reconstructive surgery in the next few weeks to get implants.
‘The only thing I've ever seen was my mom,’ she tells Oprah Winfrey. ‘That was in the 70s and they didn't do a very good job.
'I'm thinking, “Oh, my God, I'm going to be butchered and I'm never going to love that part of me again.”
‘But I did a lot of research and they can make some pretty boobies, some very pretty boobies.’
