    Julia Louis-Dreyfus felt "backed into a corner" to reveal her cancer diagnosis

    The 64-year-old actress revealed her stage 2 breast cancer diagnosis in 2017, and she admitted at the time she wasn't necessarily ready to open up about her health battle, but felt like she needed to say something because work on her show Veep was being postponed for a year during her treatment.
