Are you there, vodka? Because you may need a shot after learning about Chelsea Handler’s opinions about personal hygiene.
Last week, Kevin Hart appeared as a guest on Handler’s podcast “Dear Chelsea,” in which the comedian and her guests give advice to the show’s fans.
While Hart and Handler both discussed one listener’s story about how she and her husband wash their dog in the only bathtub in their home, Hart jokingly took a wild stab at the race of the fans who wrote in.
“I’m gonna guess that these people are white? As a matter of fact, I’m willing to bet the farm on this one,” Hart quipped.

This prompted the former “Chelsea Lately” host to admit that some of her Black friends have told her she looks like “one of those girls that sleeps in bed with [her] dogs,” and have called her out for not washing her legs in the shower.
“Why do my legs need to be washed? They’re fucking covered all day,” Handler said. “It’s not like my legs are going out without me.”
“When I take a shower, all the soap from my shower comes down,” she continued, gesturing to her legs. “It’s not like my legs are out there gardening all day without me.”
“That’s so bad!” Hart said, laughing. “You fucking wash your legs!”
“No, I don’t think so,” Handler retorted.
Handler then revealed that she does, in fact, pick and choose. She said she mainly cleans what she described as “hot spots,” which include her her armpits, butt, vagina and head.
“And I get those going … And then everything is fine after that,” she said.
While the two continued to debate their ideas of cleanliness, Handler also admitted that she doesn’t use a washcloth or loofah when she bathes, and just uses her hands — which also blew Hart’s mind because she isn’t able to “scrub” herself with her hands.
At this point, the “My Horizontal Life” author decided to switch back to the topic of sleeping with dogs, and said, “I understand that that’s actually dirty, but who cares?”
“What do you mean, who cares?!” Hart said, outraged. “That’s my bed! That’s my bed! The dogs are outside all day, running around in the backyard, playing and stuff then you want them to come in, jump in the bed, sleep in the bed.”
And this is when Handler took the conversation in a weird direction.
“You’ve never pissed the bed and slept in it?” she asked the “Ride Along” star.
Hart admitted that he has been “guilty” of wetting the bed before.

“But immediately, I get up, and this has to be changed,” he said.
Handler then decided to stress her point of view with a very gross personal anecdote.
“This is not a flattering story, and that’s why I’ll share it,” Handler began. “I don’t remember what drugs I was on, but I was on something, and we were in bed, and I had to pee so many times before I could go to sleep. And we were in a hotel room in Vegas. This is when I was in my 20s, and I was so sick of getting up to pee that I just said, ‘I’m just gonna pee right here, and I’m gonna move over onto the other side of the bed.’ And I thought I could do that. And then when I moved over to the other side of the bed, I was like, ‘This is disgusting.’”
This is the point in which the “Jumanji” star had had enough — and decided to address Handler’s podcast listeners.
“By the way, this is a good moment, just to kind of point out to the listeners that this is who you’re asking your questions to. This is who you are asking for sound advice — from the woman that felt that she could pee on one side of the bed and roll over and that there wouldn’t be pee there.”
And this is when he gave Handler a new nickname.
“Okay, I’m gonna change her name from Chelsea to ‘Hot Spot.’ Hot Spot Chelsea, because you only wash your ass,” Hart said before laughing hysterically.
Hot Spot Chelsea’s opinions aren’t solely her own. Plenty of celebrities in the past few years have publicly shared their controversial views about personal hygiene. Kelly Clarkson, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jason Momoa, Terry Crews, and Cardi B have all shared how much — or little — they bathe to the public’s dismay.
