Chelsea Handler Talks Love and Lifestyle Choices
Chelsea Handler recently shared some candid thoughts on her podcast “Not Skinny But Not Fat.” The 50-year-old comedian expressed that she’s not willing to compromise on her love for drugs when it comes to relationships, stating, “I love all drugs. I love drugs. I love LSD. I love MDMA,” but clarified she’s not a fan of cocaine or heroin. Despite having tried them, she emphasizes that they don’t appeal to her like other substances do.
Handler noted that she believes right now is a prime time for drug use, as everything is available in smaller, less confusing amounts. She feels this makes it less intimidating to explore. At parties, she and her friends often experiment with various drugs, and she admitted that dating someone who doesn’t party is not something she’s interested in, saying, “No. It’s like if I date a guy, they have to party.”
She added that she’s had a long journey with drugs, which she believes have enriched her life in many ways: “Yeah, what can I say? I’m a mess. I’m a loser. Don’t I have it? I have it.” Handler recently ended a relationship with fellow comedian Jo Koy after about a year, where she had openly expressed hope for love even later in life.
After their breakup, Handler shared on social media that Koy changed her life and offered immense love, although they decided to “put our relationship on hiatus.” They were friends for a long time before dating, with Koy having made frequent appearances on her show, “Chelsea Lately.”
Reflecting on their relationship, Handler commented on how she thought Koy was “the one,” feeling she had it all career-wise and personally. However, she grew to realize he might not have been the right fit for her after all. Recently, she hinted at dating someone new but didn’t go into detail.
In a thoughtful exploration of her experiences, Handler touched on the challenges of finding a suitable partner for her lifestyle, balancing her love for parties with the expectations that often come in relationships. It’s a complex dance of priorities, desires, and realities. Sometimes, it feels like a whirlwind of emotions, doesn’t it?
