Chelsea Handler delivered a brutal sex jab directed at Elon Musk during her appearance at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas on Saturday.
The comedian, 50, sat down with journalist Kara Swisher, and discussed her feelings on Donald Trump’s presidency and his administration, including Musk, 53, who is in charge of the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.
Swisher told the audience that she had asked Handler to date Musk, as per the Daily Beast: ‘I told her to take one for the team and date Elon Musk and bring him back.’
But the star — who recently sparked romance rumors with Ralph Fiennes — was not interested in sleeping with the billionaire Tesla CEO.
‘There’s a lot I would do for the country, but having sex with Elon Musk is not one of them. I can’t,’ Chelsea replied.
Chelsea also expressed her irritation at Musk being in the Oval Office. ‘I mean did anyone vote for Elon Musk to be the president?’ she questioned.

‘I mean, can’t we come together–Republicans and Democrats–and say we don’t want that. Can’t we agree on that at least?’ she asked.
‘I don’t know why we can’t somehow figure out a way to get together and at least have one goal in mind to not be, you know, a Russian asset.’
It’s not the first time Handler had strong words for the SpaceX founder, whom she labeled ‘repugnant’ back in 2023.
Handler also shared that she would not be letting the Trump presidency affect her mood this time around.
‘You know the first Trump presidency, for instance, I let it take me down, and I let it steal my joy. And I am not going to do that again,’ she said.
‘It’s the power of being optimistic in the dark and not going down a wormhole.’
Handler also clarified that she is not inclined to settle down.
‘I like a variety of men. I like men in my life. I’m not a settle down kind of girl.’

Swisher then declared that Handler would be Vice President JD Vance’s ultimate nightmare.
‘Those types of men that want to keep women at home and being mothers, and you know, not having a career, like that’s just so antiquated and it’s so slow and it’s so boring,’ Handler replied.
‘I think the political situation we’re in is a direct reflection of the fact that men are so scared of women. Like why are you acting like this if you’re not?’
Handler expressed confidence that men like Vance cannot suppress women, emphasizing, ‘Women are more powerful and independent than we’ve ever been, and that isn’t going to change.’
The comedian donned an all-white pantsuit to be interviewed for a live taping at the Vox Media Podcast Stage inside the Austin Convention Center.
