Chelsea Handler
Thin Skinned
November 6, 2009
Oh, that Jay Leno. He’s always got something up his sleeve.
Last week, in an awkward series of events, the lantern-jawed Leno surprised talk show host/comedian/author Chelsea Handler by unveiling a giant-sized reproduction of his nubile guest’s forthcoming “Playboy” cover, in which she’s attired in nothing but a tiny gold bikini and a come-hither smile.
When Leno brought up Hugh Hefner and posing for Playboy, Chelsea, 34, seemed a bit annoyed and said, “Why are you bringing that up?”
About the cover, which is for the December issue, Handler joked, “We need the guy that airbrushed me to come back.” She admitted that she “trained” hard for the shoot and quit drinking “for like a day-and-a-half.”
As far as seeing Chelsea in the buff, don’t get your hopes up, fellas. The inside photos merely show her covered up by an apron and a mini-dress while preparing a vodka-soaked Christmas meal with her sidekick, Chuy.
