Chelsea Handler continues to get her guests to open up about all sorts of things on the air that you'd never catch them talking to Dave or Jay about on 'Chelsea Lately' (Weeknights, 11PM ET on E!). It started innocuously enough with 'Saturday Night Live's Jason Sudeikis.With Miley Cyrus coming to the show, Handler asked Sudeikis if he planned to reprise his Billy Ray Cyrus impression for her appearance. It certainly seems likely that we'll get another installment of the recurring "Miley Cyrus Show" sketch, which features Sudeikis as Miley's father.
But Sudeikis took the conversation in a whole new direction. "I assume you mean the impression," he said. "Just for clarification. Because that is the nickname for my ... " But then he had to explain exactly how the three word name combines to described his man-parts.
Comedians have a hard time being serious, so it was surprising when Handler brought out 'Entertainment Weekly,' featuring a genuine answer from Sudeikis. The question was, whether it was harder to be funny or sexy.
"If you have to work too heard at either one than you're probably not it," Sudeikis said in the magazine. "The true goal is to embody both equally and make it look effortless." That's pretty good stuff.
Oh wait, there's a bit more. "Like Dog the Bounty Hunter."
There it is. Just can't help themselves, can they?
