Chelsea Handler On Rumored Sex Tape: ‘I’ve Been Showing It At Birthday Parties For Years’

Chelsea Handler made light of a supposed sex tape on “Chelsea Lately” on Wednesday night.

“I want to pre-empt this episode by announcing that Radar Online is releasing a supposed sexy, sexy, sexy time tape of me from when I was 23 years old,” she said. “I would like to say to Radar Online: A) Thank for ruining the surprise Christmas gift to my staff and No. 2, it was made as a joke. I put it on an audition tape for a comedy club because I’m a comedian and I’ve been showing it at birthday parties for f***ing years.”

Radar Online reported on Wednesday that the comedienne made the tape “nearly a decade” ago, shortly after her move to LA. The tape reportedly includes stand-up footage that cuts to a clip of Chelsea with a male partner naked on a bed, performing what appears to be intercourse.

The site asserted that the scene in question is not comedic.

However, Chelsea said the site wasn’t the first to track the tape down.

“So way to get the scoop Radar and by the way I just want everyone to know, somebody called my attorney a couple months ago and tried to get me to pay a million dollars to release this tape, to buy the tape of myself that I made, that I have and you know what I said? I’m not worth it,” she joked.

On Wednesday evening, a rep for the star also told Access Hollywood the tape was “not a sex tape.”

“Watch the show. It’s not a sex tape – it was done for a comedy bit years ago,” the rep said.
