Chelsea Handler showers with Ellen DeGeneres in the last episode of her talk show Chelsea Lately that aired on Tuesday. Handler said goodbye to her audience, naked, in a funny skit that went viral.
The Chelsea Handler Ellen DeGeneres shower sketch is hilarious and was the perfect way to end Chelsea Lately on E! after a seven-year run.
The 39-year-old comedian was also joined by other celebs for the epic finale. Hollywood stars like Jennifer Aniston, Sandra Bullock, Miley Cyrus, Gwen Stefani and even her ex boyfriend 50 Cent showed up to the Chelsea Lately farewell episode.
The famous faces united for a spoof of Michael Jackson’s charity classic “We Are the World.” The “We Are the World” spoof was pretty funny but was overshadowed by DeGeneres’ first appearance on the show.
Handler naked in the shower with the host of Ellen was pretty hard to beat. The two comedians spent close to three minutes trading barbs over the fact that Portia de Rossi’s wife was never invited to be a guest on Chelsea Lately.
It all started with Handler heading to the “Chelsea Lately Staff Showers” space to take a shower, she was naked. Few seconds later, the 56-year-old funnywoman shows up to get some of her questions answered. DeGeneres calmly said:
“I came to ask why I’ve never been on your show.”
Handler did not have an answer, so DeGeneres wondered if it had something to do with the fact that she is a lesbian. A confused Handler said she did not know that DeGeneres was gay. The This Means War actress ended the segment in even more confusion by revealing that she is also in a lesbian relationship.
Although the sketch went viral, not everyone found it to be funny. Some say, it was gratuitous and did not contain a single genuinely funny moment. Handler fans were quick to defend her by saying that her humor is not for everyone, it is something that you either get or don’t.
With her huge popularity and connections in high places, it is safe to say that a lot of people do get Chelsea Handler jokes.
