Comedian Chelsea Handler took to Instagram on Monday, one day before the 2018 midterm elections, to urge fans to vote “like your life depends on it.”
What caught most people’s attention in the video? The fact that 43-year-old Handler was nearly naked in the video. The former late-night talk show host is shown topless and covering her breasts and is seen wearing only panties.
Handler added the short video to Instagram Stories. She also announced in the clip that she would be campaigning for Democrats in her home state of California, including congressional candidates Katie Porter and Gil Cisneros. Handler also revealed she would speak at UC Irvine.
Handler is known for being a prominent critic of President Donald Trump and has previously posted revealing photos or videos of herself on social media. In September 2014, shortly after Kim Kardashian famously broke the Internet after posing naked from behind for Paper magazine, the comedian poked fun at the photo by taking her own selfie in her bathroom and showing the world her rear end.

A few years ago, Handler also got into a dispute with Instagram after she parodied Russian President Vladimir Putin‘s infamous photo where he is seen riding shirtless atop a horse. The comedian replicated the photo by riding a horse and also going topless. Instagram removed Handler’s photo, claiming it violated its rules because it was a nude photo and she fired back by writing: “Taking this down is sexist. I have every right to prove I have a better body than Putin.”
Handler has turned to activism since her talk show on Netflix was canceled last year.
