Chelsea Handler to Diddy: Get away from me

And we thought picking beefs for publicity was so 1997. Apparently Chelsea Handler believes otherwise since, while promoting her latest book, ‘Lies Chelsea Handler Told Me,’ Handler revealed to Hamptons Magazine her disdain for the king of beefin’, one Sean “Diddy” Combs, PopEater mediates.

“P. Diddy was the only one I was like, ‘Get away from me.’ He’s so late all the time — maybe he won’t show up in the Hamptons until summer is over,” Handler said.

It just seems wrong to go after Puff on his home turf! And, sorry Chelsea, but frankly, we think it’s pretty unlikely Combs won’t make it out East to the beaches this summer.

Combs seems to be the exception to Handler’s liking for rappers. We know she had a thing for 50 Cent (the pair briefly dated before his expensive presents started to creep her out) and she tells Hamptons she loves most other hip-hop stars.

“Rappers are great interviews because they just don’t really care and they are willing to say anything,” Handler says. “And I love that because that’s kind of how I am. They all hit on me. I love Pharrell and thought he was really sweet. Nelly, too.”
