Christina Applegate has revealed how she would love to spend her remaining days, amid her ongoing health battles.

In 2021, the Dead Like Me actress revealed that she had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and stepped back from the spotlight to focus on her health.

The 52-year-old previously sparked concerns when she shared that she is in a ‘deep depression’ over her symptoms, and that she currently ‘doesn’t enjoy living’ – something she later clarified.

Taking to Twitter, she opened up about her bucket list for the rest of her life, and her plans involve some very big names.

‘There are things I want to do with the days I have left in life,’ she posted. ‘I want to work with Shirley MacLaine And do shots with Cher!

‘And yes my days are so big. Just saying.’

‘How about a docu-series? Christina’s Bucket List, and they film you doing all the things you want to do,’ Arnie Grape suggested.

JoJo agreed: ‘Awwww I hope you get to go all that and even more!!! Power on!’
