Chelsea Handler Signs Deal With Netflix For A New Talk Show!
Since she recently announced she was over her Chelsea Lately show, Chelsea handler has decided to take a different path. Netflix announced yesterday that she signed a deal with their online streaming site.
Handler quoted, "If I was going to continue working in this industry, I knew I had to do something outside the box to keep myself interested," said Handler, "I wanted to sit with the cool kids at lunch...so I approached Netflix to make sure they were as cool as I thought they were, and when I confirmed my suspicions, like with any other future lover, I made my move."
This new deal won't air until 2016, but will be an "unfiltered" talk show with entertainment and cultural issues, including guest interviews.
Handler told Howard Stern that E! network was "a sad, sad place to live." She also bashed E! adding, "They don't know what they're doing. They have no ideas. It's a failure." Her final episode as Chelsea Lately will air on August 26.
