Do you know who Chelsea Handler is?
She’s the female version of a late night talk show host. Her show is on E! and recently moved to 11pm where she has been kicking ass in the ratings. Her main audience is young women 18-34.
She just signed a new 3-year, 8 figure deal with Comcast (parent of E!). Her new deal also includes a production deal for her company Borderline Amazing Prods.
Her books “Are You There Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea,” and “My Horizontal Life” spent weeks on the NY Times bestseller list and also appeared in the web version of In the Motherhood which will debut on ABC tomorrow night with Megan Mullaley and Cheryl Hines.
I’ve only seen a couple of her shows, and she is really funny and raunchy.

I love her show. Her show is funny and much more appealing than those boring white male TV show hosts that we’re all so sick and tired of. Her show actually gets higher ratings than those primetime talk shows if I’m not mistaken.
i love her too! always “goes there” and cracks me up doing it.
I DVR her show almost every night. Hilarious!
Haven’t seen Chelsea yet, but it’s good news.
She’s more of a political satirist, but check out the Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC. Rachel is sharp (Rhodes scholar sharp), funny (Jon Stewart funny), and an out lesbian to boot. I loved her “Lame Duck Watch” segment during the last days of the Bush Admistration.
Loved her in “Girls Behaving Badly” and still love her now that she has more of a voice of her own! Hilarious!
I’m a 50 year old bi-racial man. Chelsea is the stuff, sexy(in spite of her huge hands) funny, man I’m panting, oh yea she’s rich.
