Scoop: New couple - Chelsea Handler and 50 Cent

New couple alert! Snarky TV host Chelsea Handler and rapper-actor-entrepreneur 50 Cent were spotted getting cozy with each other at New Orleans’ Blue Nile jazz bar recently. TMZ obtained a photo of the pair at the club-sitting so close you couldn’t insert a Post-It Note between them-and reports that an onlooker avows they were getting “hot and heavy.”

Though you may not have seen this romance coming, Fiddy’s evidently been wooing the “Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang” author for a while: He reportedly sent flowers and left the caustic comedienne a flirty message after his spot on her E! show, and has called her “beautiful” via Twitter, that most soul-baring of celebrity mediums.
