Pink Ribbon Celebrities: A Round-up of 25 Celebrity Survivors
I shared earlier this week that it was Celebrity Week at b5Media’s Health and Wellness Channel.
With that in mind, I thought I’d be remiss not to include a list of celebrity breast cancer survivors here at The Pink Ribbon Review; here’s what I’ve pulled together (listed date of diagnosis/treatment):
- Dorothy Hamill (2008)
- Robin Roberts (2007)
- Cynthia Nixon (2006)
- Sheryl Crow (2006)
- Kylie Minogue (2005)
- Melissa Ethridge (2004)
- Edie Falco (2003)
- Anastacia (2003)
- Jaclyn Smith (2002)
- Lynn Redgrave (2002)
- Cokie Roberts (2002)
- Peggy Fleming (1998)
- Diahann Carroll (1998)
- Carly Simon (1998)
- Rue McClanahan (1997)
- Richard Roundtree (1993)
- Olivia Newton John (1992)
- Kate Jackson (1987 & 1989)
- Nancy Reagan (1987)
- Gloria Steinam (1986)
- Jill Elkenberry (1986)
- Ann Jillian (1985)
- Sandra Day OConnor (1982)
- Betty Ford (1974)
- Shirley Temple Black (1972)
Unfortunately, this list is not exhaustive — there are many more celebrity survivors out there (check out this Wiki, it lists them all I think).
I limited my list to 25 for the purpose of this round up. Is there anyone I left off that you really want to appear on this site if not on this list? Put their name/date of diagnosis/treatment in the comments.
