Tickets for the Live Nation-produced Belvedere Presents Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang tour go on sale beginning on January 15, 2010. More information and tickets are available at www.livenation.com.

As one of the nation’s fastest-rising female stand-ups, Chelsea has performed to sold-out audiences at venues and festivals across the country, including, most recently, the prestigious Carnegie Hall. Her comedy mixes fearless honesty, ironic riffs and self-deprecations with an abundance of always fresh material. “I have made a recent living making fun of every person in Hollywood, so I’d like to take this tour as an opportunity to get back to my roots and make fun of myself along with the rest of America and of course, Spain. Godspeed.” — Chelsea Handler

Although she regularly appears on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” was profiled on “Nightline,” and has been featured on “Today,” LIVE with Regis and Kelly” and “Late Night with David Letterman,” Chelsea is best known for her own E! Entertainment show, “Chelsea Lately,” which airs weeknights at 11:00 p.m. Consistently the highest-rated program on E!, “Chelsea Lately” has been picked up through 2012, providing Chelsea with the perfect showcase for what she does best: comment on pop culture and entertainment news while interacting with the public. The daily program offers a tongue-in-cheek look at entertainment news, celebrity truths and rumors that just won’t die, and other hot topics of the day. Bringing refreshing new energy to the late night arena, “Chelsea Lately” is an authentic and hilarious commentary on the celebrity culture around us.

A three-time published author, Chelsea’s latest book, CHELSEA CHELSEA BANG BANG (Grand Central Publishing Hardcover; $25.99) hits stores on March 9th. In the new opus, Chelsea mines her family, her sex life, her career, and her distinctively outrageous worldview to bring readers an outrageous no-holds-barred account of life on the ridiculous side. In addition to her concerts, Chelsea is expected to meet her fans at bookstores in cities along the route of her upcoming tour.

Also part of the tour will be Chelsea’s drink of choice, Belvedere Vodka. Presenting her concert tour and book launch, Belvedere will host private after-parties for Chelsea’s gigs across the country. Known as having a strong point of view on contemporary culture and pouring at exclusive events, Belvedere Vodka is a vodka with natural edge, the perfect partner for Chelsea and her fans. “We were thrilled to be chosen by Chelsea last year as her preferred & favorite vodka,” says Charles Gibb, President of Millennium, the vodka & rum division of Moet Hennessy, producer of Belvedere. “As a vodka connoisseur, her decision to choose Belvedere is a true testament to the quality of our vodka, and we are delighted to be supporting her on this exciting tour”.
