Personal accounts brimming with genuine experiences - Accounts of Authentic Experiences
Christina Applegate, the acclaimed actress who rose to fame in the 1980s, has announced the upcoming release of her memoir, "You With the Sad Eyes." Scheduled for March 3, 2026, the book promises an intimate look into Applegate's life and career, as well as the personal struggles she has faced.
Applegate, who has been active in show business since her childhood, gained wider recognition through her role as Kelly Bundy in the sitcom "Married... with Children." Her last appearance was in the series "Dead to Me." In the summer of 2021, Applegate publicly revealed that she has multiple sclerosis (MS), a condition that has since confined her mostly to her home.
In a recent interview on Conan O'Brien's podcast "Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend," Applegate discussed her MS progression. The memoir, she revealed, was inspired by her need to stop and think about her life due to her illness.
"You With the Sad Eyes" will not only focus on Applegate's long career but also on moments away from the spotlight. The book will cover her life and legacy, from her childhood in the 1970s to the present day. Applegate wants to show her "true self" in her memoirs, promising to include the highs and lows, humor, and sorrow of her life.
The memoir's German title is "Du mit den traurigen Augen." Applegate finds it frightening to tell all of her life's experiences in her memoirs, describing her MS as the worst thing she has ever experienced. However, she is determined to share her story, hoping to inspire others who may be facing similar challenges.
Applegate has won an Emmy Award for her acting and is looking forward to adding another accolade to her list with the release of "You With the Sad Eyes." The book is expected to be a compelling read, providing a unique insight into the life of one of Hollywood's most beloved actresses.
