THR reports that Chelsea Handler plans to leave the E! channel when her contract expires at the end of the year. This would bring an end to her Chelsea Lately talk show after eight years on the air.
According to her manager, Irving Azoff, “Chelsea intends to leave when her contract expires. She hired me to figure out life after E! We have at least seven suitors.”
Handler’s future plans could include a radio show, another weekly late-night show on television or on a digital platform.
An E! spokesperson respinded, “Chelsea has nine months left on her contract and E! will not comment on the future of Chelsea Lately at this time.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Chelsea Lately? Would you be sorry to see the show end? Would you follow Handler to another channel or platform?
I have watched Chelsea from day one and admire her style of comedy. I am also an alcoholic comedic personality and when people dawggg me I blame Miss Handler!! Love her to pieces and I’ll always admire her humor. Good luck on your next chapter doll!!!
UPDATE: E! has confirmed that “Chelsea Lately” will end in August of 2014.

I love her and her show it’s so funny and I’ll be sad if she leaves but understand that it’s time for her to move on.

You are OPEN–HONEST–and I really like your “I don’t give a sh_t attitude!” You tell it like it is and I agree with so many of your comments its unbelievable. And if Chelsea doers take on another gig—please let it be a GREAT talk show because Chelsea Handler outshines ALL these idiots who call themselves “talk-show hosts!”
Keep the show. One of my favorite. Been looking forward to it coming back on. Just when I starting telling everyone how good it was. Need to bring it back
