Your 2008 Out 100 host: Chelsea Handler

This just in! Chelsea Handler will host the 2008 Out 100 gala! No stranger to the gays, the delectably improper comedian donated $5,000 to defeating Prop 8 and recently hosted a "gay day" on her popular E! talk show, Chelsea Lately, which featured gay comics Scott Thompson and Guy Branum as well as Out fave Semi Precious Weapons singer and self proclaimed "narcissexual" Justin Tranter:

It's anyone's guess as to what Chelsea will have to say to a room full of some of the most famous and influential gay men and women in the country come November 14 -- first she has to get them to stop drinking and gossiping long enough to hear her -- but you can rest assured it'll be hilarious and biting. And she won't being pulling any punches -- just the way we want (and love) her.

For all the latest updates on the 2008 Out 100, including exclusive behind-the-scenes video footage from the Golden Age of Hollywood-themed photo shoots, head over to Out.com.

Hello,

How does one get an invite to the November 14 gala of OUT 100 here in NYC? Is it too exclusive for regular OUT subscribers likes me?
