In 2013, Christina Applegate told the Daily Record that then-1-year-old Sadie LeNoble was an excellent actor who had mastered the art of pretending to experience severe emotional turmoil. “She will throw herself down when she does not get something and you know she is fake crying,” said the “Dead to Me” star. However, Applegate told Parade Sadie wasn’t allowed to pursue an acting career as a child. She explained that this decision was inspired by her firsthand experience. “Something that I didn’t get to do was just be a kid. And I really want her to have that,” she shared. But while becoming a professional entertainer is off the table for Sadie until she turns 18, her mom has let her experience the star treatment; in 2023, Sadie accompanied Applegate to the SAG Awards.
Two years earlier, Applegate had revealed her multiple sclerosis diagnosis. She told the Los Angeles Times that the SAG Awards red carpet was possibly the last one she would walk because of her health issues so it makes sense that she wanted then-12-year-old Sadie to attend the event with her. The mother and daughter coordinated their outfits by opting for similar all-black ensembles. Sadie wore a tailored suit, a newsboy cap, and Doc Martens, while Applegate rocked a velvet suit dress with a long train. Sadie didn’t look out of place at all and was arguably giving her mom’s peers some serious style competition.
