Don’t get me wrong: I think it’s great that Chelsea Handler employs dwarves on both her late-night talk show, Chelsea Lately, and her sitcom, Are You There, Chelsea? That’s super.

But this interview with Rosie O’Donnell is a little much.

Pop2it:

“I’m a little ashamed about it … [but] I have a mild fear or anxiety around little people,” says O’Donnell. She then asks Handler if Handler has ever slept with a little person.

Handler responds, “No, that would be child abuse. I’d never do that.”

Which is apparently part of O’Donnell’s problem. “I can’t put the two things together. This is an adult person, but it’s a little person, but they have adult… it’s so hard for me.”

“I love little people. Whatever you have, I have the opposite. I want to tackle them. I see them and I have to hold myself down. I bite Chuy sometimes. He comes into my office and he’s so cute. That’s my ultimate body, if you’re going to have a little person. I want that shape, the corpulence,” says Handler.

Um, wow. Like, there is nothing wrong with having a sense of humor, but uhhhh. These “humorous” comments overstep into “pretty repugnant.”

The article at Pop2it struggles to assess which viewpoint is “worse”: Rosie cops to being outright phobic, but is the way Handler fetishizes and exoticizes little people even creepier, maybe?

Not surprisingly, Little People of America has taken umbrage with both comediennes’ remarks:

LPA has a bigger problem with O’Donnell’s comments, because O’Donnell attributes her feelings to heredity. “My Nana was afraid of the ‘Wizard Of Oz’ munchkins,” O’Donnell told Handler.

[Spokesperson Leah Smith] says the comedian is perpetuating “fear-based attitudes.”

“Instead of perpetuating these fears, let’s learn how to accept differences,” Smith said.

…Smith said the group is angry, but doesn’t plan a boycott of either performer.

“We’d rather start a discussion and deal with the issue head on,” she said. “No other group is marginalized like this.”

Dude, you know who comes out of this whole thing looking awesome? Leah Smith does. Low-five, LPA.

“I wasn’t like ‘Oh, I’m going to marry 50 Cent…’ I mean, seriously. But I did like him. He’s very sweet and antithetical to what you’d think of him.”

- Chelsea Handler on who I like to think is her one true love, 50 Cent.

Did anyone else’s heart break a little bit after reading that? It’s like, damn, Chelsea, 50 Cent is a person too. He has feelings. Don’t be so harsh. I mean, seriously.

Do you remember when Chelsea and 50 started hooking up? It kind of blew everyone’s mind, but then it was sort of easy to see why these two would be good together. They’re both just so obnoxious, right? These two crazy, loud, offensive people found each other in this big wide world, and that was beautiful and inspiring. And obnoxious.

Even though 50 Cent didn’t really say the sweetest things about Chelsea (remember that time that he was all “yeah, she’s cool to talk to, but you probably wouldn’t look at her and want to bang her,” wasn’t that charming?), I think he really did love her. I think that he thought she was The One, the girl of his dreams, the apple of his eye. He thought he would settle down with her in a nice little cottage in the country, and they would get wasted together for the rest of their days.

But Chelsea wasn’t having it. She broke things off for whatever reason, and that was that. But somehow, over a year after the fact, she’s still saying hurtful things to poor 50. My opinion of Chelsea was never that high (to be fair, it was pretty much nonexistent), but now, Chelsea, you have gone too far.

But yeah, wasn’t this a crazy couple? I kind of wish they had gotten married, you know? It’d be a hell of a wedding.

Everyone knows that Chelsea Handler and 50 Cent had some sort of something going on not that long ago, but the talk show host has finally confirmed that they were seeing each other “very casually” (you know what that means) at one point.

In an interview with Piers Morgan on Tuesday night, Chelsea said that she and 50 were dating and that he was the exact opposite of what you’d imagine him to be. She also added that while she enjoyed their time, she wasn’t so fond of his tendency to surprise her with gifts. She said, “I don’t really like when men buy me ridiculous gifts, especially when I don’t know them well. I can buy my own gifts. I really don’t like gifts from rappers in general, since I’m not a hooker.”

Only rappers employ hookers, huh, Chelsea? Oh, I see how it is.

So there you have it. For all of those who’ve been losing sleep at night over this, you can rest easy knowing that the two were definitely fucking at one point and that Chelsea ain’t no gift-accepting hooker.

What happens with the “hardest” and “most rockin’” teen in rock n’ roll history stops by the set of the brassiest woman in show biz‘s late night talk show? Talk about childhood orgies, cigarettes and how hard Taylor rocks, of course.

The two got along pretty famously, which is surprising considering the fact that both ladies and kind of confrontational and known for running their mouths. Perhaps they were both just afraid they’d finally met their match?

Either way, I found this interview pretty fun to watch and was kind of blown away by how pleasant Taylor seemed. Like, shoot… maybe she’s not all that bad.

“Chelsea [Handler] is confident. I think confidence is the sexiest thing about a person. She’s the kind of person that if you’re blessed with the opportunity to hang out with her, you’ll enjoy it. I’m not sure you’ll look at her and actually want to jump over the table and fuck her, but you might. You would leave after talking with her feeling that she is a cool person.”

… So, what you’re saying, CURTIS, is that you banged her for her sparkling personality and not her looks? Because I’m not quite sure how to take that otherwise, but hey … ‘you might.’

Way harsh, Fitty friend. Way harsh.

When we first met Chelsea Handler, she was dating the president of E! (didn’t know that? How else do you think she got her show?) Things ended between them and she was single for a minute, and then rumors of her dating rapper 50 Cent started popping up. That was unexpected, but kind of made some odd sense. Now the reports coming out of Sundance are saying that Chelsea was seen all over New York hotel and restaurant guru Andre Balazs.

Andre and Chelsea were seen making out at a Florence and the Machine show, as well as a couple of other parties. The two are reportedly heading back to Los Angeles together today.

Eh, I’m on Team 50. This Andre dude seems real sophisticated and baller-like, but Chelsea seems a little too wild for him. I felt like 50 could give her the loving that she needs while not giving a fuck what she says on her TV show or in the press. That seems like the ideal man for a lady like her.
