14 Celebs Who Went Public with Their Health Battles

The Real Housewives of Orange County star discovered melanoma on her left butt cheek, and is now urging her Instagram followers to get their skin checked. "I work out hard for this Booty. I was planning on competing again in November at 50 years old, but I’m not sure that’s happening now. It looks like God has a different plan for me,” Judge wrote. "I'm showing you this picture because this is what melanoma looks like. I don’t want sympathy, I want you to save YOUR ass and get your skin checked. This was just a small black flat freckle … I had no idea!" The mom of four previously had three spots that turned out to be basil cell skin cancer, and one squamous cell skin cancer, all of which can be treated with early detection and by quickly removing the skin cells.
