Chelsea Handler's Twitter Fight With Nick Cannon Gets Out of Hand (VIDEO)
The social networking service Twitter only lets you send 140 characters at a time. But in a way, those little messages can say so much more. And sometimes, things get out of hand.Chelsea Handler has been feuding on Twitter with actor Nick Cannon for a while now. To be fair, Chelsea started it -- when she mocked the fact that Nick was doing a comedy tour. "Who's going to provide the comedy?" she Tweeted. Nick said this in reply, slamming Chelsea's looks: "Chelsea Handler looks like she got hit in the face with a bag of nickels." Ouch!
On the new 'Chelsea Lately' (weeknights, 11PM on E!), Handler struck back. So far, Nick has been winning the "Twitter" war -- insofar as you can "win" one -- calling Chelsea "white trash," and insinuating that she only got her job because she slept with the head of the E! Network.
Tonight, Chelsea said she had ignored Nick because she "felt sorry" for him. But she did reply to Nick's previous "bag of nickels" slam. "It took me a month," she said, "but I finally came up with a retort."
And here that was: "I got hit in the face with two quarters!" ... Um, what? We assume this was a reference to the fact that Chelsea might be dating rapper 50 Cent. ("Two quarters," get it?) So that was her response after ... a month. We don't want to take sides here -- but since Chelsea is a professional comedian, maybe she could be a little quicker on the draw when she's engaged in a Twitter war.
