The comedian showed her trademark blend of warmth and audacity as she celebrated her 49th birthday by “multi-tasking” with a drink in her hand and hitting the ski trails in nothing but a bikini. She also added an adorable twist by carrying not one but two beloved dogs down the slopes with her. “Multi-tasking on my 49th!” she wrote on Instagram as she shared the video of herself and her canine companions. Wishes poured in from celebrities and fans for Chelsea, who celebrated another year around the sun on Feb. 25. “Happy birthday!!! Miss you,” wrote Demi Lovato, while Avril Lavigne commented, “haha ur amazing. Happy birthday.”

Happy birthday!!!”
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST!” one fan wrote
A post shared by Chelsea Handler (@chelseahandler) Chelsea has long been a maverick, poking fun at societal norms and often challenging the expectations placed on a woman. She recently spoke about how she spends three months of the year skiing her “heart out” as she lives her best life. “I’m living my best life,” she told Kind magazine. “I’m not married. I don’t have children. I spend three months of the year skiing my heart out in whistler.” She has also previously said she wished people were not defined by their relationship status or whether or not they have children. “It’s important to know when you don’t have the skills to raise a baby. You know, instead of shaming people we should say, ‘Oh good, good for you for knowing that you shouldn’t have a baby!’” the TV host told Today last year as she spoke about her Netflix special, Revolution. “(There are) some overtures to women and men out there, and anyone who doesn’t identify as either, that you are not defined by the children that you bring into the world (and) that you’re not defined by your relationships or being married,” Handler said.
Chelsea Handler said it makes her “sick” when she’s repeatedly asked about having children

That’s the next step,’” she continued. “And it’s so annoying because it’s not what you have to do.” On another occasion, Chelsea vehemently proclaimed that motherhood is not the central purpose of a woman’s life. While appearing as a guest host on “The Daily Show,” the comedian said she has “infinite respect” for mothers but noted that motherhood can be “hard.” “In America, and honestly, everywhere, motherhood is treated as a woman’s central purpose in life, as if our destiny is to let a tiny stranger rip a hole through our Pikachu from the inside out. And then as soon as we turn 18, we’re just supposed to sit back and wait for Nick Cannon to impregnate us,” she said, making a reference to Nick being a father to 12 children.
“Embrace your shortcomings” is a piece of wisdom from Chelsea Handler
A post shared by Chelsea Handler (@chelseahandler) During her recent interview with Kind magazine, she offered some words of advice about shortcomings and how they can be turned into confidence. “Embrace your shortcomings. The minute you turn insecurity into confidence, it becomes an attraction rather than a subtraction,” Chelsea said.
While some fans agreed that she’s living her best life, others questioned how she could whizz down the snowy slope clad only in a bikini
