Chelsea Handler, 49, cheekily confessed this week that she is infatuated with beloved movie star Robert De Niro, 80.

‘I feel sexually attracted to Robert De Niro, I always have and I would like to be penetrated by him,’ she announced this Tuesday on late-night television.

Oscar-winner Robert was himself appearing on the same program that evening, and was accompanied to the studio by his girlfriend Tiffany Chen, 45 – causing an awkward Chelsea to avoid the green room.

 

‘I couldn’t even go near him backstage because his girlfriend’s back there and I don’t want her to think that I’m making a move, but I want to make a move,’ the single star spilled.

‘I have a penchant for elderly men,’ Chelsea candidly remarked on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. ‘I always date older – I mean, at some point I’m gonna have to stop because it’s gonna get too old.’

Her latest remarks come just months after Chelsea roasted Robert as part of a handful of ‘horny old men’ who cannot restrain themselves from having children.

Robert, who was then 79, had recently announced that he had Tiffany had welcomed a baby daughter called Gia – his seventh child overall.

Chelsea also took aim at Al Pacino, 84, who has four children, Alec Baldwin, 66, who has eight children, and Elon Musk, 52, who has 11 children.

‘There’s an epidemic sweeping the country and, no, it’s not another virus, it’s worse. Horny old men who won’t stop spreading their seed,’ she joked on Instagram.

‘Don’t get me started on these four horny old men who have never met a broken condom they didn’t like. They cannot stop procreating.’

The comic quipped: ‘Elon Musk clearly isn’t as old as Murdoch or De Niro, he’s not in his 80s but because of his personality, he may as well be.’

Chelsea has had older boyfriends like hotelier André Balazs, 67, and TV executive Ted Harbert, 68, as well as ones in her own age group like 50 Cent, 48.

Her last known relationship was with her fellow comedian Jo Koy, 52, whom she dated for nearly a year before their split over the summer of 2022.

In spite of their breakup, she clearly retained warm feelings for him, telling Variety months later that he had ‘redeemed men in my eyes.’

However she has repeatedly remarked over the years that her ‘favorite ex’ is 50 Cent, whom she had a brief dalliance with in 2011.

‘I love 50 Cent, he was fun. He was just a sweetheart and he was fun to be around. My friends loved hanging out with him. I loved hanging out with him,’ she said.

‘It was a pretty short-lived romance, it was only two months. But yeah, I mean, If I saw him I’d definitely have a drink with him,’ Chelsea told ET Canada.

Robert meanwhile began dating Tiffany in 2021, three years after the collapse of his two-decade marriage to socialite Grace Hightower.
