Chelsea Handler BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Chelsea Handler has dominated headlines in the past few days with her outspoken activism and characteristic edginess. On October 16, she took to Instagram and Threads with a fiery video urging her followers to boycott Home Depot, claiming the retailer enables ICE raids by using a license plate surveillance system, Flock, which she believes can track shoppers and share data with authorities. Handler declared she is "breaking up with Home Depot," calling the chain an "unsafe place" for workers and shoppers and demanding it declare its stores safe spaces. The post exploded online, sparking both praise and backlash with fans divided over her claims and activism, a debate further amplified in outlets like OK Magazine and Breitbart. Handler’s followers quickly chimed in—some vowing never to shop there again, others questioning her facts or motivations. Home Depot, at last check, had not issued a public response.
Handler’s public appearances have continued unabated. She’s still sizzling at her Las Vegas residency, Chelsea at The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan, with capacity crowds and recent news from MGM confirming additional 2026 dates due to overwhelming ticket demand. Her residency marks a historic run as the venue’s first-ever female standup resident. Last week, she revealed the launch of her new High and Mighty Tour for 2026, promising more doses of "joyfulness, adventure, laughter" to fans nationwide, as first reported by Parade.
She made waves as host of the 2025 Critics Choice Awards in Santa Monica in February, turning heads not just with sharp jokes, but with a PICC line visibly bandaged to her arm. Handler addressed the medical device on-air with her usual wit, brushing aside rumors and mentioning a shoulder infection and recent fever on the Call Her Daddy podcast. She told Parade she’s "pretty into myself right now" ahead of her milestone 50th birthday, reflecting on confidence, sexuality, and aging in classic Handler style.
On the business front, Handler is once again the face of a Gold Bond campaign, having hosted a high-profile ski event and now taking the brand’s Plumping Collagen Lotion to the sun and altitude of the Albuquerque International Balloon Festival.
Her social media has been a whirlwind of activism, lifestyle tips, and podcast snippets. Handler has kept her iHeartRadio podcasts active, chatting recently with guests like Reality Winner and Debbie Gibson, and doling out unfiltered advice with humor and empathy—a formula that continues to keep her at the center of American pop culture.
