Comedian Aries Spears recently revealed his rocky experience with Chelsea Handler, reflecting on how she “played him sideways” despite featuring him multiple times on her E! show. Spears noted that after delivering a sharp rebuttal joke that arguably outshined Handler’s own, she stopped inviting him back, citing excuses to his manager. “This is Hollywood. This is egos,” he said.
The conversation also touched on the Oscar buzz surrounding the horror film *Sinners*, with Spears acknowledging its recognition in several categories, though admitting he’s seen few movies this year. Discussing Hollywood's obsession with box office numbers and the race conversations they spark, Spears expressed frustration at how white people sometimes need to validate Black achievements for wider recognition. Highlighting racial narratives, he said, “Sometimes it takes white people to say it for white people to see it,” underscoring his ongoing commentary on race in entertainment.
