Comedian and talk show host Chelsea Handler brought her Uganda Be Kidding Me tour to the mophie Stage inside The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on Friday night.

The Wild Wolf Band, comprised of comedians Josh Wolf and Jiffy Wild, warmed up the crowd with its unique musical humor.

Named after her recent best-selling book “Uganda Be Kidding Me,” Handler’s set recounted details from her travels through Africa, Europe and the Bahamas. During her set, the multi-talented entertainer had the audience in stitches from her clever, crude and hilarious take on her family and her awkward upbringing. Handler returns to The Chelsea for a second show on Saturday night.

Later she was spotted at Marquee Nightclub with Chris Franjola, Heather McDonald, Jeff Wild, Josh Wolf, Diablo Cody and Ben Gleib.
