Hi everyone! Today, June 30, 2024, marks the 20th anniversary of when I opened Christina Applegate Online!

I hope this fan site has brought visitors as much joy as it has brought to me running it for all these years.

I want to thank all the fans who have visited, supported, and assisted this website in the past 20 years. I also want to thank Christina Applegate for being an inspiration to me for pretty much my entire life, you are amazing and I’m happy to call you my favorite actress. I am honored to be a fan of Christina’s and hope this fan site continues to bring the latest for all fans around the world for many more years to come!

Christina Applegate Online supports the SAG-AFTRA strike.

The nearly 160,000 members of SAG-AFTRA, the union that represents all performers on film and television, are going on strike.

On Thursday, the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) announced its national board voted unanimously to launch the guild’s first strike. The news was unveiled by SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher and National Executive Director & Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland during a press conference, following the expiration of the union’s current contract and a 12-day extension of contract negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers (AMPTP).

Why are the actors going on strike?
The short answer is because the SAG-AFTRA bargaining committee and AMPTP could not reach an agreement to form a new contract after their previous one expired on June 30.

But the reasons for a strike are many. SAG-AFTRA has faced a host of radical changes as the industry has pivoted away from more traditional models of theatrical distribution and network and cable television in favor of streaming. The issues at hand include the use of AI in generating and perpetuating actors’ likenesses, as well as residuals and data transparency for streaming projects. Other points of conflict are also salaries, particularly for guest stars, costars, and background actors, as rising inflation and the cost of living increasingly prevent many working actors from earning a living wage.

Drescher summed up the reasons for a strike in a press conference speech. “We are being victimized by a very greedy entity. I am shocked by the way the people that we have been in business with are treating us,” she said. “I cannot believe it, quite frankly. How far apart we are on so many things. How they plead poverty, that they’re losing money left and right while giving hundreds and millions of dollars to their CEOS. It is disgusting. Shame on them. They stand on the wrong side of history at this very moment.”

She continued: “The entire business model has been changed by streaming, digital, AI. This is a moment of history that is a moment of truth. If we don’t stand tall right now, we are going to be in trouble. We are all going to be in jeopardy of being replaced by machines and big business, who cares more about wall street than you and your family.”

Welcome to the brand new design here at Christina Applegate Online! This website will be celebrating 18 years online in June, so this is a great way to honor that milestone.

This lovely layout was designed and coded by my great friend Claudia at Never Enough Design. She did an amazing job highlighting gorgeous photos of Christina from her various photo shoots throughout the years. Also, make sure you visit her fansites dedicated to Christina’s TV mom Gracious Katey Sagal and her Dead to Me co-star Dear Linda Cardellini.

Heads up! I am (once again) locked out of our fan account on Twitter @ApplegateOnline. This is the second time this month it has happened and unfortunately, Twitter is making it too hard to get my account back. This means that the twitter.com/ApplegateOnline fan account will remain locked, unless by some miracle Twitter lets me back into the account.

I will be posting the latest news and media here on christina-applegate.com as usual! I’m sorry that we cannot communicate via Twitter anymore, but you can always contact me via email.
