“Chelsea Handler’s TV bosses have told her to stop picking on Angelina Jolie — or there will be big trouble!” begins a sensationalized report from the National Enquirer.
The mag claims the comedienne’s jokes are not sitting well with Jolie’s “high-powered showbiz allies at Comcast, which oversees both Universal studios and Hanlder’s ‘Chelsea Lately’ show on the E! Network.”
According to a so-called “source” for the tabloid, “Angelina has a lot of support at the top and they’re dying to lock her into a long-term contract.”
Umm… what kind of “contract”?
The Enquirer doesn’t know.
Still, the rag’s purported “insider” adds, “They don’t like the fact that Chelsea has really been saying some horrible things about her.”
The magazine goes on to claim that Universal executives “read her the riot act,” and “banned Handler from spewing any more anti-Jolie gags.”
Really?
NO.
None of this ever happened.
This rumor has been circulating for years, and yet Handler continues to riff on Jolie whenever she feels like it.
In any case, Gossip Cop checked in with a “Chelsea Lately” source, who tells us, “This is absolutely not true.”
