Chelsea Handler
As one of the nation's fastest-rising female stand-ups, blending fearless honesty, ironic riffs and self-deprecation, Chelsea Handler has performed before sold-out audiences at venues and festivals around the world. Her recent half-hour stand-up special on Comedy Central was a ratings hit.

She has costarred in several independent films, including Steamroom and National Lampoon's Cattle Call, and has made guest appearances on Comedy Central's Reno 911!, ABC's My Wife and Kids, Fox's The Bernie Mac Show and David E.

It's Me, Chelsea, was published in 2008. She now has her own wildly successful and influentiallate night talk show "Chelsea Lately " on the E! Cable Television Network.
