Chelsea Handler Teases a Possible Late-Night Comeback

“We need a woman on late-night television,” Chelsea stated. “It doesn’t even have to be late-night, it’s just we need a woman. Men don’t represent us. We represent us.”

Before her The Daily Show takeover begins the week of Feb. 6, Chelsea will serve as host of the 2023 Critics Choice Awards on Jan. 15, a night she promised will be a “good vibration night,” free of celebrity roast jokes.

“Award shows can be so boring. I want it to be fun,” Chelsea teased. “I’m not gonna skewer people. Everybody there has worked hard to get there, and no, it’s not gonna be that kind of show.”
