And a person who would now be 20 never had a life. I wonder if that thought ever crossed her mind? It’s amazing to me when someone like this comes out with such shallow commentary. It would be one thing to have a serious conversation, but this is just.... I don’t know, but it’s childish and immature drivel.
I cannot believe that I am defending Chelsea Handler....but here goes:
Without hearing the context of the interview, it sounds like her trying to make a joke.
Clearly a situation that I would not joke about, but sometimes “jokes” like that are defense mechanisms. Bad ones. And usually when you are trying to work the conversation away from a personal or sensitive point.
Her whole schtick is about being a 30-something woman, getting old, all that. In my mind I can hear her saying it in a way that would be a joke.
Personally, not funny. But again, she is on E! for a reason.
“but it’s childish and immature drivel”
Well that sums up her and her show. The only time I watched she proudly said she was a pothead. I didn’t watch long, definitely not worth losing brain cells for.
The fact that she mentioned her abortion and followed that with a comment about “a 20 year old kid” makes me think she is deeply conflicted. She has no kids. She’s 36. Tick tock. Handler is obviously resentful of teen mothers. And now she’s writing books about her friendship with vodka? Unless she is a complete psychotic narcissist, I do feel sad for her. She may be in a lot of pain. The tears of a clown, and all that.
