Love her or hate her, Chelsea Handler always says what she feels. The late night host, comedian, and author was a speaker at the Women A.R.E summit in Beverly Hills. Women A.R.E is an organization that brings together accomplished and influential women. Sharon Stone, Mary Hart, and Sela Ward were also among the speakers, but it was funny girl Chelsea that made everyone laugh by admitting what she is too famous to do.
If you watch Chelsea Lately, then you know, Chelsea hates flying commercial airlines. She so rich and famous now that she only flies on private jets. But why does she hate flying commercial? The comedian hates when people laugh too loud.
“One time I was on a plane and someone was laughing really hard and really loud and I asked the person I was with to please tell them to be quiet I just wanted to sleep – I can’t do it I’m famous,” she told the crowd. “The funny part was the woman was reading my book,” she added.
Chelsea also joked about her imperfections and family. “They’re the biggest losers.” The crowd loved her. However, Sharon Stone might have been turned off. Chelsea also revealed that while she came to Hollywood for fame, she never wanted to be an actress. “Actresses aren’t fun to be around.” Though you can regularly see her hanging out with A-List actresses like Reese Witherspoon and Gwyneth Paltrow.
I love everything about Chelsea Handler. I have followed her since her early career and we have a similar sense of humor. She can do or say no wrong in my eyes. But she is, arguably, one of the most polarizing figures in Hollywood right now. Yet her power, influence, fame, and fortune continue to increase.
