Comedians In Glass Houses

[Blind Gossip] It is a little surprising that this female comedian is making fun of the foreign birth and accented speech of this former model (who is now the wife of one of the most famous men in the world).

You would think that she would be a little more compassionate.

Why?

Because half of the comedian’s own family didn’t speak English growing up!

Her mother was born and raised in Europe and didn’t come to the United States until she was an adult. Her English got much better over the years, but she did have an accent. In fact, some of the relatives from her mother’s side spoke with such heavy accents that it was difficult to understand what they were saying!

Perhaps comedians in glass houses shouldn’t thrown stones?

    Oh & I speak 2 languages: english & an italian (my mum’s) dialect (Calabrese). AND I studied french at school….so I can ask for a coffee or ice-cream (as long as it’s chocolate) and declare the contents of a table (as long as it’s a doll, ruler, cat or dog). VERY handy. ?

    Not nice Chelsea, I guess anything for attention. Wow, here in Canada we are such a land of immigrants. Most of my friends are first generation so all of our parents have accents from all over the world!!

    Sadly, I speak only English as this is what was spoken in our household (Polish dad Italian mom that was their commom languange). My husband’s first language was Ukrainian although he was born here.

    OMG can nobody take a joke anymore? Making fun of people’s accents is funny. It doesn’t make you a horrible person. Take it easy people.

    Melania and Donald Trump.

    CH is so desperate for attention you would think she was an 18 year old starlet. Her schtick of flashing her boobs, berating children, drinking and now this shows just how over the hill she is. She looks and sounds ridiculous and is so not funny. Wish she would just go away – maybe Canada will take her.

    Not condoning what Chelsea said, but perhaps she is using her own mother as an example of someone who worked on improving her speech and is not recognizing that characteristic in Melania.

    However, my mother in law is an immigrant, and despite living in the US for over 25 years (and even learning English while in her native country in school), she still has a heavy accent. It’s just harder for some…

    Model’s Hub: DJT

    Pure political tribalism, Chelsea, just own up to it. If this were, say, Penelope Cruz, she wouldn’t hesitate to have her on and would no doubt find her accent “charming.” Political hysteria making Chelsea even more tiresome than usual.

    How many languages do you speak? As an ex-pat myself, I speak two, and it’s humbling—learning a language as an adult ain’t easy. Kudos to anyone…

    Chelsea Handler.

    I am fluent in English, both oral and British Sign Language and I have been slowly learning Japanese (both orally and written) for a few years, I’m not fluent yet but I am getting there and I understand enough to be able to watch a Japanese film and know what is being said, so I understand and write more than I can say properly myself, if that makes sense?

    Chelsea Handler/ Melania Trump/ Donald Trump. She is not funny in any sense. We have a beautiful and gracious First Lady. Get over it already!

    Chelsea Handler

    The Current Mrs. Trump (FLOTUS)

  60. spookie says

    I feel it’s a low blow to pick on Melania to be honest, she seems trapped in some kind of loveless hell.

  63. need more wine says

    Chelsea Handler and her meaningless dig at Melania Trump.

    Yet another pathetic example of the disgusting hypocrisy that seems to be so popular right now. Let’s preach about acceptance and tolerance while we spew hatred out against others and are completely intolerant of everyone who disagrees with us. Its comical and I don’t take any of these idiots seriously.

    Optional: 3.

  65. TeacherKat says

    Is this Chelsea Handler making fun of Malania Trump? Chelsea’s comments reveal more about her than they do Malania. Doesn’t Malania speak like 4 or 5 languages herself?

  70. spaceship says

    Disgusting Chelsea Handler………ugh, can’t stand her!
    Melania Trump

    Don’t like Trump or his wife, but Chelsea made a fool of herself. Again.

  73. kelno19 says

    Chelsea Handler, Melania Trump – doesn’t she speak, like 5 languages? Eh, I used to speak German, but use it or lose it. Probably could pick it back up if I moved there for a couple years….

  77. bertwheeler says

    Chelsea Handler
    Malania Trump
    Da Prez

    Would Chelsea make fun of the accent of someone whose politics she approved of? Chelsea and her ilk just cement the stereotype many people have of Hollywood.

    I speak one language, which is apparently four fewer than Melania speaks.

  80. worldsoldestkitten says

    I’m thinking this is Gigi Hadid, but I don’t think of her as a comedian, so I’m probably wrong.
    My guess is this was her imitation of Melania Knauss Trump, wife of The *Resident of the United States.
    I speak five languages well and can survive in another six, but I’m sure my accent in each of them has natives rolling with suppressed laughter.
    I feel weirdly sorry for Melania. i don’t believe that Mr. Trump knows how to carry on a normal conversation with a wife.

    * “P” left out…

    Can’t imagine a classy woman like Melania would give a thought to being on her show.

  118. mamacita3 says

    Chelsea Handler making fun of Melania Trump. Chelsea is one mean drunk and she’s delusional if she thinks Melania would even give her an interview!

  120. NoOne says

    Poor Melania! She’s seems so sweet and she really doesn’t deserve this. She is not the one who ran for the presidency; she is not the one who has speech malfunctions; she is the one who time and again has told her husband to “act more presidential”. Why are people picking on her? She speaks something like 5 languages, so of course she will have an accent in some of them.

    I speak 4 languages; 3 of them fluently.

  122. kittymyers says

    No idea who the comedian is, but
    the former model is Melania,
    married to President Donald Trump.

    Chelsea Handler on Melania Trump. I am not a Trump fan, but they should leave the First lady alone as well as the son…. Why is this ok?

    1 and I know odd phrases sentences words from a few others, it’s funny how is British and probably Americans judge people for languages when most of us only speak English, a lot of cultures are at minimum bilingual

    God i hate chelsea handler – shes not evenly remotely funny and helped pave the way for other idiots that think all u have to do to be funny is play up vulgar skankiness (looking at you amy schumer)

  138. CanaryCry says

    Obviously this is regarding Melania & The Donald.

    Chelsea Handler

    First Lady Melania Trump

    President Donald Trump

    Unfortunately, one language. Admire that our first lady speaks five languages.

    Ironic also coming from someone who espouses diversity, equality for women, etc. It’s disgusting. I guess you only get respect if you identify as a liberal.

  141. luddite2 says

    Chelsea Handler discussing Melania Trump. Perhaps Mrs. Trump should pull out the nude photos each took and see who mocks who?

  142. SleuthingForFun says

    That horrible Chelsea or whatever Handler making fun of the new First Lady, she is such an attention, celebrity latch on that she’ll do whatever she needs to do or say for attention.

  147. throwsumshade says

    Chelsea Handler is the “comedian,” former model is Melania, wife of the POTUS. Chelsea likes stirring the pot to make a point, but thank gawd she did so this time without flashing her boobs. I speak one language, good for Melania for speaking 5.

    Chelsea Handler making fun of Melania Trump. Mother was born and raised in Germany.

    All of my maternal relatives that were my grandmother’s age had heavy German accents even though they were born and raised in the US. Everyone in their small community spoke German as their first language.

    I speak American English, Canadian English, Australian English, British English and am fluent in sarcasm.

  151. Nataliexyz says

    Chelsea Handler’s hate speech against Melania Trump. It’s truly disgusting. The woman speaks 5 languages. Handler looks like the idiot that she is by mocking her. Very interesting her own family didn’t speak good English.

  152. quickchick says

    Don’t know Comedian, but…

    Former Model: Mrs. Trump

    With absolute fluency? One. English. But, enough Spanish and French to get myself in trouble.

    If a republican said this, they would want them fired or issue an apology. It seems all liberal sins are forgiven.

    First she makes fun of Brad Pitt’s children for coming from other countries and now she harasses an immigrant for speaking with a bit of an accent. Leftist Luvvie Hypocrite.
