Star Treks: Christina Applegate

Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead

Showing the world she could play more than just a dumb blonde, Christina got back to her roots to play, well, a dumb blonde…turned fashion-savvy career girl.

In this 1991 guilty pleasure classic, she played Sue Ellen, the eldest of four kids, left alone for the summer, who’s forced to take charge, get a real job and bring home the bacon when the babysitter their mom hired dies.
