Shane Gillis Takes Jab at Chelsea Handler After She Slammed His ‘Gross,’ ‘Racist’ Jokes at Kevin Hart Roast
New York Post ^ | May 21, 2026 | BreAnna Bell

Shane Gillis has hit back at Chelsea Handler, further escalating their feud after she criticized his and fellow comedian Tony Henchcliffe’s “racist” and “gross” jokes at Kevin Hart’s recent roast.

“This is a big moment for Chelsea. I am glad she’s capitalizing. Good for her. We’re all rooting for her. Anyway come see me July 17th at the football stadium in Philly,” Gillis, 38, told Page Six in a seemingly cheeky statement shared through his rep.

Handler slammed “sexist” Gillis and Henchcliffe, labeling them both as “racists” and “bigots,” during her Wednesday appearance on “Deon Cole’s Funny Knowing You” podcast. She went on to reference Gillis’ joke about Hart’s height during the roast earlier this month, where Gillis said Hart, 46, is so short “they’re gonna have to lynch him from a bonsai tree.” “I don’t find those jokes funny,” she said. “Lynching Black people is not a joke.”

“Chelsea Handler: “Lynching Black people is not a joke.”

Neither is killing babies. She’s projecting the guilt of her murders onto Mr. Gillis.

Exactly! Yuh see, the people (her own children!) whom Handler aborted can't complain, can't cancel her, can't call for a boycott, etc.

But the Black folk she's "White Knighting" for - the great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren of Blacks who lived in an era in which lynchings were not unknown - from them, she expects some sort of kudos. It's they to whom she is virtue-signaling.

Regards,

Boy oh boy. Chelsea sure is trying to milk her attendance at the roast for all it’s worth. So sad to see, she’s even shilling for Bass, like that will get her some government gigs.

Handler’s primary fight is with Gravity which is threatening to merge her boobs with her muffin top. Chelsea, when you get to a certain age you just need to cover them up like Biden in the basement, instead of putting them out there to show off Dr. Breats’s last ditch efforts.

It was a joke!!!!!
Hart laughs at himself

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Hart

Kevin Hart’s height has been a subject of public curiosity and varying reports, with sources listing him anywhere between 5’2” and 5’5”. In an April 2024 interview on 60 Minutes, Hart clarified his actual height, stating, “I’m 5-foot-5, like with a shoe on, like a sneaker. Now, if I put a boot on, I can get to 5’5” and a half.”[114] This clarification came after discrepancies in media reports, such as GQ listing him at 5’5” and the Los Angeles Times at 5’4”.[115] Hart often incorporates humor about his stature into his stand-up routines.
