Anna Kendrick gave the Veep star, 56, her support in an emotional tweet. “F–k. F–k. I don’t think I realized how much I love this woman, who I don’t know,” the Pitch Perfect actress wrote. “Love her more for speaking up for others in this moment.”

As previously reported, the Seinfeld alum announced her diagnosis across her social media channels on Thursday. “1 in 8 women get breast cancer. Today, I’m the one, she shared in the message. “The good news is that I have the most glorious group of supportive and caring family and friends, and fantastic insurance through my union. The bad news is that not all women are so lucky, so let’s fight all cancers and make universal health care a reality.”
