Oh, no she didnāt.
Chelsea Handler has never been politically correct, but the talk show host committed an eyebrow raising faux pas when she quipped to Jay Leno on Wednesdayās The Tonight Show, āI donāt mean to sound gay, butā¦ā
The deadpan comedianne - who makes āDebbie Downerā look like bubbly Anne Hathaway - was telling Leno about her boyfriendās romantic Valentineās Day gift to her when she said, āHe wrote me this really beautiful book about our relationship. I mean, I donāt mean to sound gay, but it was very sweet, and I made him a scrapbook. It was just very nice. Heās a very romantic kind of guy, and Iām not that romantic, so I have to really get into the groove.ā
Handler put her foot in her mouth once again when she joked about her boyfriend, Andre Balazs, playfully āhittingā her.
āWe have a fun relationship. We laugh a lot. He hits me, like jokingly, but people donāt know that, so thatās funny. Like weāll be at a party, and heāll comes up and just smacks me across the face, and we both are starting to laugh, and people are like, āOh my God, oh my God, but Itās fun for us⦠and thatās whatās important⦠to have private time,ā she said.
