Chelsea Handler did not hold back when asked about Tom Brady, making it clear that the retired NFL star is not her type. 

The comedian shared her blunt take during a Jan. 7 appearance on Sirius XM’s Page Six Radio, reacting to recent photos of Brady spending New Year’s Eve with social media star Alix Earle.

“I saw that picture,” Handler, 50, said while discussing Brady’s run-in with Earle. “I have no interest in Tom Brady. I don’t find him dynamic, hot, interesting, or fun. I find him so boring.” 

She doubled down moments later, adding, “I think he’s a total dud. I couldn’t, I mean, so I don’t have any thoughts.”

Handler also brushed off any curiosity about Earle, 25, saying she doesn’t know enough about her to care about the rumoured connection. 

“I don’t really know that [much] about Alix Earle. So, I don’t care to answer your question. Do I need to expound?” she joked, keeping the tone light but dismissive.

The comedian went on to explain that she’s generally turned off by men who seem overly focused on vanity. 

While she acknowledged that such men often have freedom in their dating lives, she made it clear that lifestyle doesn’t appeal to her personally.

Handler’s comments came shortly after Brady, 48, was spotted celebrating New Year’s Eve with Earle in St. Barths. Photos showed the pair looking close as they rang in 2026 at a nightclub. 

A source later told Us Weekly, “Alix and Tom were together the entire night on New Year’s Eve partying at a party hosted by Palm Tree Crew in St. Barths. They met through mutual friends who were also in St. Barths and had an instant connection. There was a lot of chemistry between them.”

Handler isn’t the only public figure to criticise Brady recently. Sports commentator Skip Bayless, known for supporting Brady during his football career, has openly questioned the quarterback’s post-retirement choices. 

Speaking on The Skip Bayless Show, Bayless took issue with Brady’s business moves and broadcasting career, calling his on-air presence unimpressive and his commercial appearances unnecessary.

“He’s so blah, he’s terribly blah,” Bayless said, adding that Brady’s post-football career hasn’t matched his success on the field.

While Brady continues to make headlines for his personal life and career decisions, Handler’s sharp remarks have added another layer to the ongoing conversation, one that leaves no doubt about where she stands.

• Indonesia’s defence minister meets Field Marshal Munir.
• Both sides underscore importance of defence ties.
• Indonesia’s air chief lauds professionalism of Pakistan’s forces.

Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) and Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to fostering a strong and enduring defence relationship with Indonesia, according to a statement issued by Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).

Lieutenant General Sjafrie Sjamsoeddin (Retd), Minister of Defence of the Republic of Indonesia, called on Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir at General Headquarters (GHQ), Rawalpindi, according to the military’s media wing.

The meeting focused on matters of mutual interest, evolving regional and global security dynamics, and exploration of avenues for enhancing bilateral defence cooperation, the statement said. Both sides underscored the importance of strengthening institutional linkages, training collaboration, and defence industrial cooperation between Pakistan and Indonesia, it said.

The visiting dignitary lauded the professionalism of the Pakistan Armed Forces and acknowledged their sacrifices in the fight against terrorism. He also expressed Indonesia’s desire to further expand defence ties with Pakistan across multiple domains.

The CDF reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to fostering a strong and enduring defence relationship with Indonesia, based on shared values, mutual respect, and convergence of strategic interests.

Pak-Indonesia defence deal near: sources

The visiting minister earlier called on Pakistan’s air force chief in Islamabad to discuss a potential deal that includes the sale of combat jets and killer drones to Jakarta, three security officials with knowledge of the meeting on Monday said.

The talks come as Pakistan’s defence industry moves forward with a series of defence procurement negotiations and looks to establish itself as a sizable regional player.

Indonesia’s defence ministry confirmed the meeting between Sjamsoeddin and Pakistan’s Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Baber Sidhu.

“The meeting focused on discussing general defence cooperation relations, including strategic dialogue, strengthening communication between defence institutions, and opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation in various fields in the long term,” defence ministry spokesperson Brigadier General Rico Ricardo Sirait told Reuters, adding the talks had not yet led to concrete decisions.

One source said the talks revolved around the sale of JF-17 jets, a multi-role combat aircraft jointly developed by Pakistan and China, and killer drones designed for surveillance and striking targets.

The other two sources said the talks were in an advanced stage and involved more than 40 JF-17 jets. One of them said Indonesia was also interested in Pakistan’s Shahpar drones.

The sources did not share any discussions about delivery timelines and the number of years a proposed deal would span.

The Pakistani military’s public relations wing did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Glen Powell and Michelle Randolph gave their romance a quietly public moment following the 2026 Golden Globes, stepping out together at an afterparty that also included Powell’s parents. 

The appearance marked a notable milestone for the couple, who have been keeping their relationship largely low-key since romance rumours first surfaced late last year.

Powell, 37, attended the 83rd annual Golden Globes on Sunday, Jan. 11, with his parents, Cyndy Powell and Glen Powell Sr., as his guests. 

While Randolph, 28, did not walk the red carpet with him, she was later spotted joining the trio after the ceremony. 

According to E! News, Randolph was seen getting into a car with Powell and his parents following the awards show, before the group headed to a Golden Globes afterparty together.

Photos shared the next day showed Powell smiling as he walked slightly ahead of Randolph while arriving at the bash. 

The actor wore the same midnight blue Brunello Cucinelli tuxedo and matching bow tie he had donned earlier that evening. 

Randolph opted for a black gown featuring cutouts near her midriff, pairing the look with a black handbag and wearing her blonde hair down in soft curls.

The outing came about two months after the pair were first spotted together in Austin, Texas, where Powell lives. 

Randolph has been spending time nearby while filming Landman in Fort Worth. 

In early December 2025, Us Weekly confirmed that the two were seeing each other casually. 

“They started seeing where things would go around October and have been trying to keep it under the radar for almost two months now,” an insider explained at the time, adding that the pair were “having fun.”

As their connection grew, Powell and Randolph were seen together in Miami before traveling to St. Bart’s to ring in the New Year. 

“They traveled together and Glen invited her on the trip,” a source told Us Weekly, noting that the timing worked out because Randolph also had mutual friends attending. 

The insider added that the couple “are dating” but were “keeping things casual and low-key” heading into the new year.

According to the source, “Glen is very into her and they are having a lot of fun,” pointing out that the two share common ground by working in the same industry. 

The insider also said Powell thinks Randolph is “so beautiful and is smitten,” while describing Randolph as “very reserved,” adding that Powell “brings out the fun side in her.”

Their Golden Globes afterparty appearance, especially alongside Powell’s parents, suggested the relationship may be moving forward naturally, even as the couple continues to keep things relaxed and largely out of the spotlight.
