After being given the all clear from her tough battle with breast cancer, Jennifer Saunders turned her hand to helping other women coping with the disease over the weekend.

The Absolutely Fabulous star bared all in a rather fetching sparkly bra as she took part in the Breast Cancer Care MoonWalk.

Jennifer joined thousands of women (and men) on the overnight walk around London's Hyde Park, which raises money for the cancer charity.

The actress was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009, and was given the all clear in June 2010.

However, the star kept her illness out of the spotlight of the media, and has only recently began speaking about it.

Earlier this year, Jennifer opened up to the Radio Times, revealing she suffered from depression as a result of her treatment.

"I found the tamoxifen the hardest thing because it changes you. It’s like suddenly becoming older," she told the Radio Times earlier this year.

"You feel fagged out and it makes you feel depressed. You have that 'I want to go to bed and sleep for ever' kind of feeling. I wasn’t starting my days until maybe 11 or 11.30, even though I was awake."

Wow! Never knew that J.S. had suffered from this terrible illness. Really pleased she's beaten it and best of luck to her and all the others that have taken part in this charity walk. Solid people and society needs more of 'em!

She doesn't "Bare All" - she opens her blouse and see her underwear - same as on hot beaches all over the wrold = bikini top!

For those of you that dis respect her for speaking out about a horrendous disease, I sincerely hope it doesn't happen to you... Sick, sad people. You're the ones that cry wolf when ever anything goes wrong in your lives, even for the most minor things. 'OMG my toddler fell over a pavement curb! FFS! Get a life and stop bemoaning people who have gotten over a life threatening illness... Bet you're all monstrous, fake, and shallow...

Lynda, it's not even worth your time answering the people you're addressing here because it won't change a thing. Just let them get on with it because they will never stop or stamp on the likes of Jenny Saunders. She'll keep going until the day she drops. Just concentrate on the positive and don't let 'em grind you down because they'll always be monstrous, fake and shallow!

No thanks, Jen. Save 'em for Adrian.

The toads who don't get the point of this walk slay me. I think when you're over 50, have had a successful career, makes the world laugh, and has a great family, you aren't doing this for attention. Keep at it Jennifer. Cheers Sweetie! And while you're at it, we need 10 more seasons of AbFab, please!

There are some very sad comments on here from some people !! Are people that uneducated that they can't work out the whole point of the ' Moon Light Walk '!! You do not have to bare all to take part and nobody is flashing their naked boobs !! Its all about having fun and raising money for such important research . Nobody minds a women on a beach in a bikini do they !!! My mum and sister both had Breast Cancer and with out all the money raised by these charity events , they may never had survived !! All i can say is those who run down people who have suffered them selves with cancer and take part in these vital charity events...is that you never have to endure cancer and the chemotherapy and radiotherapy that is used to treat it !!!!!!!!

I wonder how much money she would make if she removed her bra...all in a good cause?
07:05 PM on 05/14/2012
Good luck Jen, nice pair by the way.

Cute!

I think she's lovely, Talented and, along with other woman who have gone through what she has, very brave.

Well done to all that have partaken in this wonderful moon walk. The only downside for me, and I know it is prudish, is the tee shirt .... is that really necessary! Also, women who have lost breasts, do not like having bras and cleavages on display. Great cause though!

If the t.shirt or bra is what is holding you back from joining in - do not despair. The year I did the Moonwalk there were all shapes and sizes, including some larger ladies who wore their bra over a t.shirt as decoration (and I think another bra under). There were also tassles aplenty, and for women with less they were well covered in feathers etc to give cleavage! Join in, it is great fun and very liberating to do something with women for women :)

What can men do to help in this cause other than sponsorship? This is genuine, by the way, not a micky take or lewd comment.

How brave of Jennifer Saunders to do such a thing. Shows that she really cares.Out of respect I forgo the golden opportunity for the many purile puns that present themselves by the images shown. (Don't block my post please moderator. Puerile = boyish / immature).
