Chelsea Handler Apologizes To Gregor Robertson

U.S. Comedian Apologizes For Mayor Mix-Up

U.S. late-night host Chelsea Handler apologized for confusing the homophobic mayor of Sochi with the LGBT-friendly mayor of Vancouver — then made fun of the what-did-he-do-now mayor of Toronto on her show Wednesday night.

Two nights before, she aired a photo of Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson when referring to Sochi Mayor Anatoly Pakhomov on "Chelsea Lately."

"Turns out the mayor of Vancouver actually loves gay guys," she said, according to Jason Howe.

Handler even took the opportunity to jab at another Canadian mayor, Kyle Donaldson reports.

Are you there, Chelsea? It's me, redemption.
