Chelsea Handler Slams Tori Spelling About Her “Gay Following”

Ooooh, I love this!

My future mentor, Chelsea “Genius” Handler, is ragging on Tori Spelling’s “gay following” in a new interview with The Advocate. The interviewer asked her if she went to any Prop 8 rallies:

I only go where the gay people invite me to go. It’s not nice to do things for the community only when people are looking. People who speak out for gay people just so that they can create a fan base annoy the out of me. People like Tori Spelling. She doesn’t have compassion for them. She’s not going out doing things for them. She’s like, “Oh, I have such a huge gay following.” It’s because no one else is following her!

Ouch!

Chelsea also talked a bit about her late mother, who was Mormon:

Well, we kept the Mormon side down to a dull roar growing up, because we realized how ridiculous and intolerant that religion is. My mom was never really a typical devout Mormon. After my brother passed away when he was 21 years old, my mom turned to religion, as many people do, but she was very tolerant of other religions. It was a melding of religions in our household, which worked out well because we’re all open to anything—and, as a final result, not religious at all. Organized religion, more than anything else, is completely inappropriate.

RIGHT ON.

I just looooooooove love love love Chelsea.

She’s the bestest!!!

Chelsea Handler, will you be my big sister?
