Chelsea Handler's dad must be so proud.
Playboy's December cover girl set herself up for the big reveal tonight on The Jay Leno Show, joking with the host that her pop was going to love it "because he thinks I'm very sexual."
Then Jay surprised Chelsea with a larger-than-life version of the leggy blonde's Playboy cover, featuring the Chelsea Lately host (who quit drinking for "like a day and a half" to get in shape) standing in some faux snow, clad in a barely there white bikini and tall cushy boots.
Handler demurred, however, when a slightly worked-up Jay encouraged her to strike a similar pose for the audience.
"We need the guy that airbrushed me to come back," she cracked.
Get more of Chelsea in Playboy after the jump!
