Chelsea Handler’s DUI Class Inspired Her to Get Into Comedy- Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

[klarastern]

it takes balls to confront yourself like this! Awesome lady!

[itsmekaustav]

I love Chelsea. She is blunt, on your face and has a strong personality. She gets a lot of flak and hate precisely for those reasons. Men having similar qualities are usually considered charismatic, too bad when it comes to women some men simply aren't comfortable with it.

[lucasalexanderw]

She is doing something about it. How many comics can say that?

[bonesonstones]

I'm glad to see her back on these shows. I love Chelsea, and I applaud her message!

[dmc]

What an interesting career arc she's had. There was a time I thought she was pretty toxic but I'm enjoying this.

[TheHandofAnimation]

Man, that audience gave her nothing, what a bunch of prats.

[patsysadowski]

Every comment bar a few are about her looks, clothes and people saying she isn’t funny. So why click on the video? Some of you are women hating misers.

That story about her waving the $20 around due to pure impatience just cemented her status as a certified "Karen" at restaurants.

I think I can stand THIS Chelsea: little bit more down to earth, little bit less entitled and immature...nice job with that therapist. Keep it going 👍

[davept]

Chelsea Handler I love you. thank you for always pushing the boundries, always enlightening us about the things that matter. xo

[ebbyc]

Another fab-ulous dress. Chelsea, what is, going, onnnn?!!

[sparramore]

I've had a crush on her since she came on the scene ...so you're saying there's a chance?

[Twist_Official]

I'm glad to see her back on these shows. I love Chelsea, and I applaud her message...

[Smileyson]

Chelsea is very underestimated she is a genius

[matthewwisniewski]

I wave the $20 at the camera as well 😂I don't have time to wait around

[tommyt]

“No one can interrupt me...” Hopefully she knew how to handle hecklers!

[hugoguggenheim]

I LOVE Chelsea!!! She is so grounded!!!

[Saeryfim]

Lol, she's pretty funny. I recognize her name, but I don't recognize her offhand. Introspection and self-reflection are tough to commit to, it's a good way to become a better person though.

[blkcatzette]

I can appreciate her genuinely wanting to see change in society when it comes to race relations.Though her very real experiences. Thank you Chelsea for being as you can be.

[kylievega]

She’s a very good speaker and she says all the right things
