COMEDIAN CELEBRATES CASINO WIN WITH CHARITABLE PLEDGE

by Bueno Antoinette

Comedian Chelsea Handler marked a successful night in Las Vegas with a lighthearted and charitable celebration. In a social media video shared from a hotel room, Handler, accompanied by friends, humorously documented the aftermath of her winnings.

The clip shows the entertainer discovering poker chips and cash scattered across her bed, joking that she had accidentally slept on her winnings. When an alarm sounds, she declares it’s “time to go,” capping off the playful moment.

Handler accompanied the post with a significant announcement: all proceeds from her casino visit are being donated to a list of nonprofit organizations. The beneficiaries include groups focused on LGBTQ+ support, immigrant justice, civil liberties, reproductive health, and ending childhood hunger.

The post drew enthusiastic responses from followers, with many praising both her philanthropic decision and her appearance. Handler has previously spoken about her comfort with her body, referencing a past tradition of skiing topless on her birthday—a practice she adjusted out of consideration for younger family members, while quipping that avoiding such “parameters” was part of her reason for not having children.

The celebration ultimately blended personal victory with a public commitment to supporting numerous causes.
