From New York City, the only city in America. It's the show that invented news. This is the Daily Show. I am Chelsea Handler and this is it.

It's my last night behind the desk. I hope you enjoyed this week as much as I did. But if you didn't, I am Chelsea Handler and this is it. It's my last night behind the desk. I hope you enjoyed this week as much as I did, but if you didn't, feel free to tweet me. My handle is at Ellen DeGeneres. We have another excellent show for you today,

because if you didn't know this already, Thursdays are the best days. They're like Fridays for people who work four day weeks. So let's get into the headlines. I wanted to kick things off with a heartwarming story tonight. As a woman, it's always nice to see a father spending real quality time with their daughter, especially when they are such a busy career man. Kim Jong-un, dictator and family man brought his daughter and wife to the military parade which featured more intercontinental ballistic missiles than ever before.

Believed to be called Jueh, maybe nine or ten years old, this is the fifth public event for Kim's daughter since November, the only one of his children to be shown in public, fueling speculation, he may be grooming her for succession. At elementary school age, she already outranks a room full of senior military officer. shown in public, fueling speculation he may be grooming her for succession. At elementary school age, she already outranks a room full of senior military officers. I didn't know that Kim Jong-un had a daughter. And judging from this photo, it looks like he's got another bun in the oven. Yes, this girl is speculated to become Kim's successor.

Who would have ever thought that North Korea would have a female leader before America? And she's a minority. I have to say, I am so sick of these Nepo babies. First, we have Lily Rose Depp and then Willow Smith, and now this girl, whatever happened to becoming a nuke-wielding tyrant on merit. You know how many girls are out there working hard, learning how to fire missiles and starve an entire population,

who will never have an opportunity to lead a regime? Also, to all the men out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho, thus thus thus thus thus thus th thus, thus, thus, thus, thus, th, th, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, she's, the, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi the the. the. regime. Also, to all the men out there who think fedoras are cute, I want you to know that this is what you look like. It is not a good look, especially when you're shaped like a giant cabbage patch kid. Let's move on to the man who invented cabbage match kids, George Santos. Earlier this week, he was roasted at the State of the Union by Utah Senator and Silver Fox, Mitt Romney. And apparently, Georgie didn't appreciate it. Meanwhile, Santos is firing back at Senator Mitt Romney after they clashed at the

state of the union. Romney said Santos should clashed at the State of the Union. Romney said Santos should be embarrassed and should have sat in the back and stayed quiet. It's not the first time in history that I've been told to shut up and go to the back of his room, especially by people who come from a privileged background. And I think it's reprehensible that the senator would say such a thing to me in the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the me in the demeaning way he said it wasn't very Mormon of him. That's what I can tell you. First of all, you can't complain about people coming from a privileged background when you dress like young Sheldon. You're saying that wasn't very Mormon. Mitt Romney is so Mormon that whatever he does is the Mormon thing to do.

He is the king of the Mormons. All Mormons are mad at you right now. And as th. And as th. And th. th. th. to. M. M. M. M. M. M. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma. Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma, M' is the Mormon thing to do. He is the king of the Mormons. All Mormons are mad at you right now. And as a Jewish person, I'm going to take a leap of faith and speak on behalf of all Jews and say, we're mad at you, too. Even the Dalai Lama is like, oh, this mother fucker? I like how he says it's not the first time he's been told to go to to told told told told told told told told told told told told told to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the.. told to go to the back of the room. It sounded like he was about to say, African Americans like me were told to go to the back for years, but we said no.

At the same time, though, George Santos is an absolute bitch, and I love it. I'm going to miss him. I'm going to miss him when he's in prison in two months. Let's move on to the latest way that dumb people are spending their lives. People will do just about anything for clicks on social media, but this is really stupid, jumping from the highest point possible and intentionally landing in the water with a belly flop. It's a stunt so terrifying. They're calling it death diving.

It's extreme belly flopping and, ouch, does it hurt? The higher the jump, the more the clicks. This guy's jumping off a roof into a pool. Belly first. This video alone has nearly 44 million views. Watch as she throws herself off of a platform 81 feet in the air. Experts say definitely don't do it. There's potential for a lot of injuries. They could crack a rib,

their internal organs can separate. This trend was brought to you by white claw. The preferred drink for white people who want to do stupid shit. And by the way, I don't want to nitpick the way people are trying to kill themselves, but it's not really a belly flop unless you spread your arms out like this. I see you guys tucking in at the last second. Do you want to separate your internal organs or don't you? I love how experts say definitely don't do it. Yeah, no shit, Sherlock. And by the way, you guys don't have to push things this far to go viral. You can just ski down a mountain topless like I do.

I get plenty of clips. On the other hand, if all the young, hot blonde women want a belly flopped to their deaths, have fun because it's less competition for me. And finally, let's move on to our big international story for the week, the impending cold war between Joe Biden and Jizz and China. The massive recovery effort now underway, unmanned underwater vehicles seeking out wreckage from the balloon's huge technology bay, the size of three buses. Those vehicles also searching for possible explosives. A senior U.S. official tellife tell-tellu-tell-b- tell-by the-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by-by the-by the-by the-by the the the the the the the the the the the three buses. Those vehicles also searching for possible explosives,

a senior US official tells me the balloon had a self-destruct capability. As the US collects debris and with it information, China today declaring the airship does not belong to the United States, but to China. The Biden administration making it clear, they're not getting it back. F. You China.

You set the balloon over here to spy on us. We found it and now it's ours. You don't get to demand that we return it, just like the guy who attacked Nancy Pelosi's husband doesn't get his hammer back. And I don't know about you guys but I'm not scared about the supposed explosive self-destructing capability on a balloon. All balloons have a self-destructing capability. It's called deflating. Also it doesn't belong to us. I'm sorry China, but that's confusing. Okay, usually when you release things, it's for the entire world to enjoy, like COVID.

For more on the balloon cleanup, we go now to Michael Costa at the seat of the record. Michael, what's going on, Michael? Michael, what's going on? What's going on, Michael? Chelsea, I'm here in the debris field, which is seven miles wide, and it just keeps expanding. One thing experts have learned during this cleanup is that water moves. So, how is the recovery going? Not great, you know, it's hard to distinguish the spy balloon debris from debris like this that just seems

to always be in the ocean. It's sad, but there's absolutely nothing we can do about it. Well, is there any way that we would ever have to give any piece of the balloon back to China? How dare you, Chelsea? Okay? America has full rights to the balloon under the historic doctrine of finders' keepers, which of course was later amended to include losers weepers.

However, under UN law, if America fails to declare no baxes, China can call dibs provided that before they launched the balloon, they licked it. Okay, well, thank you for your legal expertise, Michael. One last question, how much longer will the recovery take? It might be a while. I mean, the search is being hampered by all the Tick-Dockers who are death diving into this debris field, and the Navy is doing... God damn it, come on, guys, I'm doing a report. You know it really pisses me off Chelsea is that they're not even belly flopping they're tucing in at the

last second. That's what I was saying. I know it's like they don't even want to separate their internal organs. God damn it. Oh my god look what I found. I think I found a piece of the balloon. Hey Navy guys, is this something? Be careful, Michael. That might be the self-destructing part of the balloon they were talking about. The self-destructing part of the...

What? I... What? the Well, I'm sure he'll be okay. Michael Coste, everyone. All right, when we come back, I'll have some of my favorite comedians on to talk more about the news and go away. Go to hire can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Well, we have some stories. We have one of the Kardashians, Courtney, who's the most, I guess, untouched one, I would say, right? Courtney is coming out with a vaginal gummy. So you take the, I'm confused about whether you put the gummy in your mouth or straight directly into your Pika chew, but it's supposed to improve the smell and taste of your Pikachu. And then it tasks like pineapple. So that's, I don't th, I th, I th, I th, I thu thu thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I don't thu, I'm thus thus thus thus the the the most thus, I'm thus, I'm thus, I'm the the the the the the the the thus, I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thu, I thu, I thu, I thu, I thu, I thu, I thu, I thu, I thu. I'm thu. I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm that, I'm that that tou-a. tou-a, I guess, I'm tou-a, I guess, I'm tou-a, I guess, I'm tou-a, I guess, I'm thusususus your Pikachu and then it tastes like pineapple. So that's I don't know if that's even possible to put a gummy. I wouldn't even want that flavor. I would want like Arctic Blast. Yeah. Something minty fresh. Something that's gonna surprise some people. Here's my issue. What if you like the original taste

instead of a gummy that makes your pussy tastetasks like pineapples. I want a seasoning that makes my salad tasks like pukt. I hear you. I know I'm sick of products like this. I'm just like just hold your nose and go down on me. Grow up. Also first of all just a regular shower we'll do it most of the time. We don't have to get fancy with this. Hey, okay. I think I'm the only one that's like I need. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I'm th. I'm the the th. I'm the th. I'm the the only. I'm th. I'm the only. I'm the only. I'm th. I'm the only. I'm th.

Hey, okay, I think I'm the only one that's like, I need this. I want this. I want to just, okay, hold on, also they know this. It makes it taste better for sure. Can you imagine there was a taste tester. There was a person at their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the at their company being like, no, no, more vitamin C, more pineapple, you know what I mean? Nice work if you can get it.

I mean, the line outside for that job is like, let me tell you. It's not that long. No. We have to have to check back in. And she's one day married to Travis Scott. We have to check back in to find out if it works in like, like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, I, the, I, the, I, I, the, I, the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, I, I was, I, I, the, the, the, the, I was, I was, I was, I, I, I was, I was, I, I, I, I was, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th..... th. th. th. thi, th. th. thi, th. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, if it works in like six days. We see what he says about it Yeah, yeah, well he seems like he's so in love with her. He doesn't care what kind of smell or taste is coming out of any orifice Those two are like inside of each other every time you see them on TV If they come out with a Dave's hot chicken version. I really want to do on the testing brown I also already do this. I already already. I already I already this. I already eat th. I already eat th. I already eat th. I already eat th. I already eat th. I already eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat they. I they. I they. I they. I they. I they. I they. I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. I the the they. I they. I they. I they. I they. I te. I te. I te. I te. I te. I te. I te. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. te. te. te. te. te. this time, this whole time I could have been doing it on the other end too. You know what I mean?

It's like, I've been doing it for free, Courtney. Whitney, Houston is releasing a new album. I'm confused by this. This keeps happening. Tupac did this, he started this trend. People releasing albums after they died. I think Beethoven's releasing something next week too. Yeah.

I thought Abba was releasing, because they were nominated for the Grammy for this past week and I was like, Abba, I thought they had crossed over as well. I didn't realize that they're still alive and well. Are you a media? That's how you're? Are you Teresa Caputo? There's someone, there's an artist on the other side. I thought they had passed on. So it's gospel, it's a gospel album with six previously unreleased songs, so it will

be new material. Again, very surprising. It's called Go to the Rock, and I was like, honestly, I was ready for her like lesbian pride album called, um, go to the cubby hole. That's the song, it's called, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. That's the one of the songs sounds like a lesbian prize song. One of the songs is called Hold On Help is on the Way, which is a story about a lesbian helping a gay guy kill a spider. I think Go to the Rock is a great name for like Hunter Biden's book. There was a Japanese, in a Japanese zoo. they figured out that a female monkey got pregnant

despite being separated from all the male monkeys. So when they investigated this situation, they found a hole in the wall. And so this is the first ever monkey glory hole, I guess. And now the couple is living together and they're going to raise their baby when they have the baby. See, that's where they messed up. That's where they messed up. Because I feel like she should be so lucky.

Like we should all be so lucky. You know, most of us have to get pregnant watching a man, fuck. As soon as I heard someone a monkey the monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey thee, a monkey thee, a monkey thee, a monkey thee thee thee thee thi, a monkey thee thee thee thee thee, the the the the the the th. A, th. A, the the th. A, thee, thee, thee, the thee, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. A, a th. A, a th. A, a monkey, a monkey, a monkey thi, a monkey thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the is the, the, thean. thean. thean, thean, thean, theaugh, the is the is the is the is, I promise you, Nick Cannon visited that zoo. I, if anyone with anything with a uterus within a hundred square yards of Nick Cannon will get pregnant, I promise you. Every unwanted pregnancy should be blamed on Nick Cannon, right? I think these monkeys sound fun. Like so in confinement, they found a whole, I mean, and I heard the other monkey was a different, like, kind of monkey too. Interracial monkey pork. Yes, interracial love, aren't we for it? Yes, we are.

Yeah. Thank you guys for being here so much. Thank you. Stay tuned because when we come back, Lee and Michelle will be joining me on the show.

My guest tonight is an Emmy and Grammy nominated actor and singer in the Broadway revival of Funny Girl, which is Breaking Box Office Records and the cast album landed at number one on the billboard charts.

I, you all need to see this play. I went to your play last night and I have to say it was one of those classic Broadway experiences that I haven't had in a few years.

You are incredible. And there are a lot of people who are famous, but you are really, really talented. I really appreciate that. Yeah, I was well, well, obviously it's hard work, but it takes a lot of talent to even execute that. I mean, there's dancing, they're singing, you're funny, it's a comedy. I was so nervous because I heard you might be there and then I saw you and anybody who's just like, you know, and I'm so funny and so gifted in the way that you are, like you and Chris Rock are the two people. I was the most nervous having in the audience. Oh, well, that's sweet, I guess.

I mean, I have to tell you when I got up during intermission, I went and go get a diet coke. And everyone was coming up to me, like, thi. to to to to to their. their. to, their.. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their, their, their, their.

It's an unbelievable schedule and anybody working, I mean anybody on Broadway is working so incredibly hard. It's eight shows a week. I had I think something like six weeks to learn everything. It's about 15 songs, 22 costume changes, something like seven to 10 wig changes. It's a lot. And mid my rehearsal process, I was told that I had to start sooner than I than I thought. And so it was a really intense experience, but I did feel as prepared as I could for my first night.

I just wanted to make all the quick changes happen and not walk on to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to the to the toe on toe on the toe on the their toe on the toe on their toe on toe on toe on their toe on toe on stage their the same their tock. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their..... their. their. their. their night. I just wanted to make all the quick changes happen and not walk on stage naked. That was like my biggest thing. Yeah, yeah, it's just so much fun to watch. I was sitting there and I was with my niece on one side and a friend of mine on the other side. And I was just smiling so hard, like my cheek shirt. Like I was on ecstasy or something. joyous and everyone and you got so many standing ovation in the middle of your songs like that's so beautiful to see for a performer. It's the it's by

far the most incredible experience I've had as performer on stage in a work environment I'm having truly the time of my life. That's nice because last time I saw you I haven't seen you in a few years and the last time since I've seen you last you've got married and had a baby. Yes, I know. I have a husband and a baby. And it does, it's a, you know, leaving my son, he was just two when I started the show. And it's hard, it's hard for any parent going to work. But I literally went from being home every single day to then going to work and being at work all the time. And it's tough, but there is something also so amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing soomeomeomeome, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the thii., the the the the the the the the., the the the the the the the the.uuiii. the the to to to to that family life that I never had while I was working.

It's really grounding and I'm so grateful for it. Well, that's great because I'll never know what that feeling is. Oh, come on. No, I mean by choice. Move to New York. Well, move to, you know. Yeah. Well, I've never lived in New York City. I feel like, the vibe here is good. It is good. It is good, their vibe here is good, you know.

That's the thing, you know, that's the... So tell me, like, how has it changed? Because you've done so many Broadway plays when you were younger, right? I mean, that's kind of how you got discovered for... I did my first Broadway show until I was 23 and then I left to go to LA and I did you know glee out there and other TV shows and never really planned on coming back to New York and then it was the pandemic that brought us home because this is where our families are and yeah I'm back on Broadway after 15 years and it's it's wild having been gone for so long

and jumping back into this schedule and you know when you're doing television you're doing new material every day it's a new script, it's a new storyline. This is the same thing every day and there's something as an artist that's really exciting about that is like how do you make that new and how do you how do you bring your own excitement to it every night? How do you? I mean, it's really depends on how I'm feeling. I'll have a day where where the day the day the day th. It the day th. It really the day th. It really th. It really th. It really th. It really depends th. It really depends, it depends, it depends, it depends, it depends, it depends, it, it, it depends, it, it depends, th. It really, th.

And, the th. And, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the thei. thei. thei. thei. thei. thei into the humor and that really is what gives me the energy. And then there are days when I need to kind of work some stuff out and that's what I lead into more of the emotion and the drama.

And what are you saying to yourself? Like what does a person say before you walk out into a theater like that big of having to perform for that. Don't. Yeah. Ha ha ha ha. Dear God, please God, you should see me before the show. I'm like praying. I'm like, oh my God. But I also think like, if there is a show to f- to f-go, can you say that on the daily show?

I don't see why not? If there is a show to mess up by like, this is the one because it's, I feel so comfortable turning to the audience, the audience, the audience, the audience, the, the, the, the, the, I, I, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I, I, like, like, I, I, like, like, I, I, like, I, I, I, the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, and, I'm, and, and, and, the, the, the, to the audience and just being like, well, here we go, that didn't work out. Let's try it again from the top. But it's, it's, there's nothing like, there's nothing like live theater. And, and I love it so much. This honest dream come true that so many people have known that I really waited so long to play this. And the fact that I'm doing it, I still, every single.. I'm like, I cannot believe. I'm doing this and that people are enjoying it. And it's the most incredible cast of incredible hardworking actors and performers. And we really have fun in the midst of doing what is a very challenging job. And making an album in the midst of also doing all of our shows and having it do so well is just another great gift.

Yeah, well, good for you. Everybody needs to go see Funny Girl. It's playing now on Broadway at the August Wilson Theater. And we're going to be right back and take a quick break before that. Thank you. Thanks, baby. So cool. Well, that's our show for tonight.
