Update, 12:15 P.M.: After posting her Instagram where she thanked Timothy Simons, Tony Hale and Katy Perry for their 'their hilarious and loving inspiration,' Louis-Dreyfus took to Twitter to share a silly and moving video of Hale and Simons.
In the video, Hale and Simons announce they're playing the roles of Julia Louis-Dreyfus and cancer, respectively. They then proceed to lip-sync Perry's 'Roar' and act out 'Julia' beating up 'cancer,' before dancing around to the rest of the song. Louis-Dreyfus said it pretty perfectly when she wrote, 'How lucky am I that these bozos have my back? What a moving inspiration to my day.'
Original Post, 9:20 A.M.: In September, Julia Louis-Dreyfus shared on Twitter that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She wrote, '1 in 8 women get breast cancer. Today, I'm the one.'
Now, almost a month later, the actress took to Instagram to post that she had finished her second round of chemotherapy. In her caption she wrote, 'We are NOT fucking around here,' before quoting Katy Perry's song 'Roar' and thanking Perry for the inspiration.
She also thanked Timothy Simons and Tony Hale, who play Jonah Ryan and Gary Walsh, respectively, on Veep, for their 'their hilarious and loving inspiration.' And, because it is Louis-Dreyfus—who's taken home six consecutive Emmy wins for best actress in a comedy—she did it all while wearing huge aviators and a draw-on moustache.
