LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — By overwhelming fan demand and in response to a series of quickly sold out shows, the ever intriguing and hilarious comedian Chelsea Handler announced that she will add a string of new shows to her anticipated tour, Belvedere Presents Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang. The late night talk show host, author and standup comedian extends the Live Nation produced tour adding second shows to sell outs in Chicago, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Miami, DC, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Boston, Austin, Philadelphia, Houston and New York.
Belvedere Presents Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang begins on March 10th in Chicago in celebration of the release of Handler's third book, CHELSEA CHELSEA BANG BANG. The tour features a total of 34 headlining appearances thus far and a cross country trek of 21 cities, including three shows at New York's legendary Radio City Music Hall.
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. She is best known for her own E! Entertainment show, "Chelsea Lately," which is consistently the highest-rated program on E!, providing Chelsea with the perfect showcase for what she does best: comment on pop culture and entertainment news while interacting with the public. She is also a three-time published author with her latest release, CHELSEA CHELSEA BANG BANG (Grand Central Publishing) hitting 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.
Belvedere Vodka, Chelsea's drink of choice, will be 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, Belvedere Vodka is a vodka with natural edge, the perfect partner for Chelsea and her fans.
