Chelsea Handler has never been one to shy away from bold and daring stunts, and for her 49th birthday, she decided to bring back a tradition that is sure to turn heads – skiing in just a bikini.
Handler, known for her no-filter humor and unapologetic attitude, posted a wild video on her Instagram of her hitting the slopes in just a red bikini. In the video, she can be seen confidently making her way down the mountain, all while rocking her bikini and a pair of ski boots.
The comedian captioned the video with, “49 and I’m still bringing back ski season. Even if it’s just for the day. An epic day!”
The video quickly went viral, with fans and fellow celebrities applauding Handler for her fearless and carefree spirit. Many commented on how amazing she looked and that they were inspired by her confidence.
Handler has never been one to conform to societal norms or expectations, and this stunt is just another example of her breaking free from the status quo. While some may see skiing in a bikini as risky or daring, Handler took it all in stride and showed that she is not afraid to march to the beat of her own drum.
It’s clear that Handler had a blast celebrating her birthday in such a unique and memorable way. And if this video is any indication, it’s safe to say that she’ll continue to push boundaries and challenge the norm for years to come.
So here’s to Chelsea Handler, the fearless and fabulous comedian who isn’t afraid to bring back a tradition in her own bold and unapologetic way. Cheers to another year of living life on her own terms!
It is Chelsea Handler’s birthday, meaning not only is she a year older, but more importantly, she’s brought back her annual tradition of skiing down a snowy mountain wearing only a bikini.
The former Chelsea Lately host rang in her 49th birthday on February 25, and promptly treated fans to her wildest bikini video yet.
Plus this time around, while ski gear was nowhere in sight, she did have her dogs as company – and some liquid courage – who she had skiing down with her.
Chelsea took to Instagram Sunday to share the latest rendition of the annual video, simultaneously giving a master class on multitasking.
In the cheeky clip, she appears wearing a bright blue bikini paired with a rainbow knit beanie and purple socks, though almost stealing her spotlight was one of her dogs, who was hoisted on a backpack wearing their own goggles, as her other dog trailed behind them.
Still, the dogs were far from the only eyebrow-raising accessories, and Chelsea is also seen in the clips holding a drink in one hand and a joint in the other.
“Multitasking on my 49th!” she wrote in her caption, and the comments section under the post was quickly flooded with countless compliments and birthday messages from plenty of her celebrity friends.

HBD,” and Melanie Griffith also wrote: “Happy Birthday Chelsea!! You beautiful, bikini clad, smoking hot, Wild Wonderful Woman!! Have a magnificent day!!”
In between more comments from stars such as Paris Hilton, Avril Lavigne and Viola Davis, among others, fans also added: “This is the most iconic thing I’ve ever seen in my life,” and: “Wow wow wow you outdid yourself again, strictly amazing happy birthday. Blessings to you,” as well as: “Living the dream! Happy birthday.”

For her 48th birthday last year, Chelsea similarly expertly skied – and drank and smoked – down moguls, wearing a strapless bikini with the Canadian and American flag on it.
Moreover, in response to former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and far-right pundit Ben Shapiro’s comments over her childfree status, she shared another bikini-clad, mid-mountain photo at the time, and aptly wrote: “This one’s for you, Tucker!”
