Australian celebrities will need to duck for cover when Chelsea Handler hits out shores next month.
The irreverent talk show host of Chelsea Lately will film four episodes of her show at Foxtel studios from November 23 to 25. In the US her show delights and offends celebrities on the E! Network. What will she make of Australian stars who are brave enough to venture onto her show?
"Anybody who comes on the show usually has a good sense of humour about themselves," says Handler. "So it's a nice kind of platform for them to be able to laugh at themselves and make jokes about themselves. [...]
So far the Aussie guest list is still under consideration. But Handler, who was the one to suggest a visit to our shores, is hoping to find plenty of men, booze and kangaroos.
"I'm trying to get my friend Poppy Montgomery to come with me," she said. "She lives around the corner from me and we're very good friends. I said 'You have to come with me'. They keep trying to get the big movie stars and I said 'Let's just bring Poppy, everybody loves Poppy'.
"We're only there for eight days but we get like three days off so hopefully we'll be able to do some fun stuff too."
Tickets for her four shows have already been snapped up by her fans from E! after Handler advised: "We need people to skip work for the day and come watch the taping. Just call in sick."
