Ross Mathews has his own show now, but there's always time to stop by Chelsea Lately!

Last night, Ross sat down with Chelsea Handler to talk about his new show, Hello Ross, and he made an interesting comparison between his show and Chelsea's.

"When I'm on your show, you guys are all so horrible," joked Ross. "No, I mean it's fun to pick on people, but I really love pop culture so I'm over here in the corner like 'I love Jessica Simpson at any size!'"

"The show is for people who love [pop culture]," Ross explained. "I love it, you love it, let's talk it out. That's what Hello Ross is all about."

The conversation then switched to Chaz Bono, who recently lost significant weight. "I'd hit it," Ross admitted. "He looks good! I was like, look, his arms are veiny, he's working out."

"You can't say that, that you would hit it," Chelsea said. "It's more like you would poke it." But Ross stuck to his guns: "You don't know what I'm like! Maybe I'm a gentleman in the streets and a freak in the sheets! You don't know!"

His excitement over Chaz aside, Ross showed his enthusiasm in anticipation of tonight's premiere of Hello Ross. "I'm looking at myself in the mirror and telling myself, 'You need to calm the f--k down,'" he said. "This is the lifelong dream!"

Chelsea showed her excitement as well by sharing a photo of the congratulatory gift she sent Ross when the show was picked up: A giant bunch of balloons with a special message. "The big one says 'You're Gay,'" Ross noted.

"Was that the first time you found out about that?" Chelsea joked.

Catch the premiere of Hello Ross tonight (Friday, September 6) at 10/9c on E!
