Nick Cannon's Twitter War With Chelsea Handler

Chelsea Handler Pinches a Nerve With Joke

Nick Cannon, 30-year-old actor and the husband of Mariah Carey, unleashed a barrage of insulting jokes about Chelsea Handler after one of Handler's jokes apparently rubbed Cannon the wrong way. The war of words started when Handler posted the following tweet: "I just heard nick cannon is starting a comedy tour. Who's going to do the comedy?" Not particularly controversial from someone like Handler. After all, she basically makes a living by cracking jokes about celebrities on her E! show "Chelsea Lately". But that didn't stop an apparently flustered Cannon from tweeting a string of "jokes" about Handler. Here is some of what he has written so far (warning: some of these messages could be considered offensive):

"Wow @chelseahandler I actually used to have respect for you as a comic. But for one artist to diss another in the same art form. #Tasteless. Soon as I get off stage tonight, I'm going in on @chelseahandler I'm about to be relentless! OFF WITH HER HEAD but right now I got to focus."


"Funny how all of @chelseahandler fans are coming at my like I did something to her. I don't even know this broad! She on my s--t! But since it's all in fun and supposedly just comedy, Let's get to the muthaf--kin' JOKES!!"


"Everyone knows @Chelseahandler had sex with the head of E! for her show. So when it gets canceled does he get residual p--sy for the reruns? @Chelseahandler Looks like she got hit in the face with a hot bag of nickels!"


"Just talked to @50Cent He said he made @chelseahandler get G-Unit tattooed on her balls!"


"@50Cent wasn't hitting @chelseahandler they was just sharing testosterone tips."


"@Chelseahandler @Howardstern @Eminem Why do all these angry ugly whitetrash folks want beef with me? What I do? I'm a harmless corny dude!"

"@chelseahandler is like the new @joanrivers just without the funny and more plastic surgery."

And then, after his various "jokes" received a negative response from various fans, Cannon backed off from the attack by tweeting:

"Just jokes people, LOL! Well I got to be at my next job in a few hours so I will continue the jokes on my morning show."
