Chelsea Handler will quit her US talk show when her contract expires.
The 39-year-old star has hosted 'Chelsea Lately' for the past eight years, where she has an average viewership of 572,000 a night, but intends to leave the programme in nine months' time and has a number of offers for work coming in from elsewhere.
The host's manager Irving Azoff told The Hollywood Reporter: 'Chelsea intends to leave when her contract expires. She hired me to figure out her life after E! We have at least seven suitors and many ideas.'
Chelsea – who is believed to make around $9 million a year from the show – has previously voiced her concerns about the E! network and described it as 'a sad, sad place to live.'
Before adding: 'They don't know what they're doing. They have no ideas. It's a failure.'
A source at one company on the list to meet with her believes those remarks may affect her chance of getting work in the future.
The source said: 'When you see talent go after a network like that, you think one day it could be me.'
E! have refused to comment on the blonde beauty's future.
