Since ending her E! talk show “Chelsea Lately,” Chelsea Handler has enjoyed removing herself from pop culture and keeping up with the Kardashians.
There was one water cooler story, however, that she admits a fascination with.
“Rachel Dolezal from the NAACP was a very joyful story for me to watch,” she told journalists Tuesday. “I thought that was beyond ridiculous and the commentary on it was beyond ridiculous.”
“Chelsea Lately” aired for seven seasons. Her new deal with Netflix has her first hosting four documentaries in which she explores and tries to better understand marriage, racism, technology and drugs.
The documentary series and a talk show will debut in 2016. The format for the latter is still being worked out.
“I’m not looking to do a nightly talk show again, that was never my intent. I want to do a show that will be on a few times a week or once a week,” she said.
