Christina Applegate will not be silenced when it comes to the rights of the disabled. On Thursday, the 51-year-old actress — who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2021 — slammed conservative commentator Candace Owens for her critique of Kim Kardashian's SKIMS brand having a model in a wheelchair featured in their ad campaign for adaptive shapewear, which is designed to be more accessible for people with limited mobility.Owens said the brand was taking «inclusivity» too far, calling the photo shoot «ridiculous.»«I really don't get it, and if I am wrong, educate me,» Owens added, showing a photo that was used from a May 2022 SKIMS campaign. «I don't know why this needs to be done.

I'm just getting tired of this all-inclusivity thing. It seems ridiculous.»Upon hearing Owens' comments, Applegate took to Twitter, writing, «Going to try and sleep but my rage is keeping me awake.

Candace Owens, do you know when you have seen pictures of me how f**king hard it was to get my clothes on? A team has to help me!!!

So I’m excited for accessibility clothing for me and my community. Hope u wake.»In an attempt to show more compassion for Owens, the actress added, «I thought my last tweet was enough.
