Chelsea Handler is a w****'

Jenna Jameson has criticised talkshow host Chelsea Handler for joking about the children of celebrities.

The porn star took to her official Twitter account on Wednesday to publicly rebuke Handler, who recently insisted that her humour never comes at the expense of kids.

Jameson wrote: "Chelsea handler makes fun of peoples kids... Probably because she's a dried up old wh*re ."

Responding later to reaction to her tweet from fellow users, the adult entertainment star added: "Just cuz I say it like it is...... Don't hate...... She talks massive s**t.. Ok, whatever…"

In 2008, Jameson announced that she was retiring from the porn industry and has since largely eschewed the spotlight.
