“They wanted to take both [breasts]. They wanted to do all of these big things that I was not ready for,” said the TV personality, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020.
Ananda Lewis, who endeared herself to legions of fans as an MTV VJ and a talk show host in the late 1990s and early 2000s, is opening up about her experience with Stage 4 breast cancer.
The television personality spoke at length about her diagnosis in a roundtable discussion with CNN’s Stephanie Elam and CNN anchor Sara Sidner, the latter of whom revealed earlier this year that she’d been diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer and opted to have a double mastectomy.
During the chat, Lewis revealed that her cancer had metastasized after she’d gone against her doctors’ recommendation that she undergo her own double mastectomy following her Stage 3 cancer diagnosis more than five years ago.
“I was ready to call you and cuss you out,” Sidner told Lewis.
“They wanted to take both [breasts]. They wanted to do all of these big things that I was not ready for,” Lewis explained.
