Ah ha ha ha! The title of this blog post sounds like I am about to talk about celebrities breast feeding their newborns!
(PS: did you see the name of Uma Thurman‘s new baby… Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson… I just went cross-eyed.)
While I have definitely come across a few too many pictures of celebs… Ahem, Gwen Stefani (you totally clicked on that link, you pervert! LOL)… Letting their children suck away, like they would a sugar laden lollipop, in public no less, that is NOT what this post is about!
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month if you weren’t already aware… (really, all months should be though)
And roughly 1 in 8 U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. Gentlemen, don’t think this type of cancer discriminates based on sex, you guys too have a 1 in 1,000 chance of developing the cancer. (For more statistics on breast cancer, click here).
Obviously breast cancer is no laughing matter. The only time breasts are actually a laughing matter are when they look like this…
Alright stop laughing for a second so you can take a minute to remember those who have be affected by breast cancer, whether it be you, a loved one, a friend, celebrity…
Here are a few celebrities who have been hit with the cancer, yet were strong enough to combat the intruder!
Richard Roundtree (see, men are affected too!)
There are so many more celebrities that have been affected and have beaten the disease, which should give all those who may be struggling or know someone who is struggling hope!
It’s time to baby your breasts! In order to do so… follow these preventative measures!

LOVE this. My mama had breast cancer in 2005, and they caught it early enough and she is CANCER FREE!! YEAHH BITCH!! shake dem tittaayyss!
Aw I am SOOOOO GLAD your mom KICKED CANCER’S ASS!!!! Give her a HUGE HUGE HUGE hug for me! 🙂
Great post. Love that you included men too!! People often forget that they can be affected by this disease. Thanks for spreading awareness!
Thank YOU for stopping by! 🙂 It’s crazy how men think they’re not susceptible to this disease, WRONG!!! Mamograms for all! LOL – Although prevention (aka, healthy living) is the best medicine.
Great post, and as for “guess who” to symetrical for me, keep it a secret.
Ah ha ha ha! My lips are sealed… My only hint is that I actually went to high school and was best friends with that girl… PRIOR to her ridiculous BOOB JOB – no, she was not BORN that way, just to put the rumors to rest, lol.
This was great!
By the way, I vote for weekly GiGI posts.
Ha Ha! I do post weekly, but do you mean videos?
Yes, there fun and informative.
I have the answer to your question…Heidi Montag!!! Wow, blast from the F-list past.
Did I ever tell you that I went to high school with her?
Celebrites who have battled cancer do a great job of raising awareness and bring attention to foundations for cancer research 🙂 Love it!
Much agreed!! Celebrities can be actually good for something, LOL!!!!!!!
Great post! So important to raise the awareness. I’ve read a lot about bras affecting breast cancer rates and a study that was done (can’t remember the name) where they compared woman who didn’t wear constricting bras (or went braless woo woo) up to very structured bras and found astounding changes in breast cancer rates. It was related to constricting lymph drainage. I thought that was super interesting! Let the ladies freeeeeee 🙂
OMG THANK YOU for this information! Makes me feel PROUD to go bra-less on a DAILY basis! LOL!!!!! I don’t have anything to support so what’s the point on buying those ridiculously EXPENSIVE bras from Victoria Secret, RIGHT?? LOL!
LOVE IT!! Let the girls breaaaaathe!
Ok lady’s , I blushing now 😀
Exactly my intent!
Great post and such a reminder that that it really can happen to anyone. And what is up with Uman Thurmon’s name choice…poor kid is never going to be able to spell her whole name!
No kidding right!!! I didn’t know how to spell my name until I was nine years old and it’s just Genevieve Germaine! LOL!
