Chelsea Handler is paying tribute to a Hollywood legend. The comedian, 50, returned to the Critics Choice Awards as host on Jan. 4 and kicked off awards season with a bang. For her fourth consecutive year helming the star-studded ceremony, Handler made multiple outfit changes, as one does when they're the face of a night like this.

In another incident, she told Jimmy Kimmel that she had slapped a Black woman back in 2019 on the set of the documentary film Hello Privilege. Handler was also forced by Netflix to undergo racial sensitivity training as well as se**al harrasment training.

Chelsea Handler's opening Critics Choice monologue included a tribute to Rob Reiner, hits at David Zaslav and a shoutout for Heated Rivalry.
