Here are some photos of Amy Schumer at this year’s Met Gala back in May. What you can’t see in these photos is the heavily-armed Met Gala police forcing her to attend. Yes, Amy did not want to attend this year’s Met Gala. She felt like she was being “punished” by putting on a fancy dress and having to interact with famous people. Her Met Gala invitation was likely guaranteed the second she agreed to pose for Vogue, but it doesn’t matter! What matters is that Amy hated everything about the Met Gala! That’s what she told Howard Stern.
Some celebrities spend years trying to get onto the Met Gala guest list, then, once they do, they spend months preparing for it. Amy Schumer, on the other hand, wishes this year’s invitation had gotten lost in the mail. In a recent interview with Howard Stern on his SiriusXM radio show, the 35-year-old comedian confessed to the host that the star-studded fashion event was far from fun, but rather a “punishment.”
“It’s people doing an impression of having a conversation … I don’t like the farce,” Schumer told Stern. “We’re dressed up like a bunch of f—king a–holes.”
Although Schumer attended as Alexander Wang’s date in a sexy, low-cut red gown embellished with chain detailing, she says throughout the evening, she kept wishing she was elsewhere — even after a surprise meet-and-greet with Queen Bey.
“I got to meet Beyoncé and she was like, ‘Is this your first Met Gala?’” the comedian said. “And I was like, ‘It’s my last.’”
What — seeing Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston tear it up on the dance floor wasn’t enough to make it fun? Schumer still wasn’t feeling it. “I don’t like it,” she said. “I have no interest in fashion … I don’t care.”
This reminds me of the time, back in 2013, when Gwyneth Paltrow wore a pink princess gown to the punk-themed Met Gala and Gwyneth wouldn’t stop bad-mouthing the gala afterwards. Gwyneth also claimed that she had attended her last Met Gala, and she kept her word – she hasn’t been to one since. Gwyneth is unlike Amy Schumer though – Gwyneth is known for fashion/beauty stuff. It was always going to be strange to see Amy Schumer at the Met Gala because… she always acts like she’s so above all of that stuff. And here she is again, acting like the Met Gala is beneath her. Then why attend? Why agree to a Vogue cover? Why even engage in the fashion part of life at all? The bigger problem might be that Amy doesn’t really know what she wants or how she wants to present herself, as we’ve seen before. You can’t be “the normal, down-to-earth, average-sized girl” (which has long been part of Amy’s branding) AND be the woman who gets Vogue covers and attends the Met Gala. So choose. And stop complaining that a fancy gala was like a “punishment.”
Here are some photos of Schumer outside of Colbert this week. This outfit is so unflattering.

Her disinterest in fashion is pretty apparent.
It’s okay to have an opinion. The Met Gala seems so completely contrived and can’t possibly feel like anything resembling a naturally egregious time. So she tried it and didn’t like it why does that make her ungrateful?
She was probably talked into it by her agent and regretted it the instant she saw that dress. It really is a weird event.
I’m with you @LoveIsBlynd. How can you know you don’t like something until you’ve done it? She was invited, attended, and decided it was awful and she doesn’t want to do it again. I just feel sorry for Alexander Wang, who was her date for the evening. If I was someone’s escort/date for an event, and then that person announced to everyone what a horrible time they had, I think I’d feel pretty bad. And think of all the people who’s job it is to plan that event, and the chef, etc. I wish she’s said something more gracious like “My date for the night, A.W., was so lovely! But it’s not an event I’d like to attend again.” But I guess she’s not known for her graciousness. 😉
Her clothes are always 5 sizes too small.
Yes! I watched her movie and the only thing keeping me until the end was an uncomfortable fascination with her way too tight and short wardrobe. I came to the conclusion that it must be some integral part of the plot, but then I saw her street wear. Silly me.
She’s so annoying and desperate to be cool that it fails. Ugh the Amy train wore off for me over a year ago
Exactly. I went from being indiferent to her to hating her in a quick second. She acts like she is above it all while she still willingly participates. No one took her hostage and made her do the cover of VOGUE, THE fashion magazine. And seriously, if she thinks that the MET crowd is shallow, she is flat out delussional because her constant vagina jokes do not exactly scream I’m her for inteligent conversation. Really, she thinks she is the smartest (size 2 apparently) ass in the room?!?? She needs to get a reality check.
Lemme come sit by you guys. This woman fatigues me. She loves to play like she’s so anti-Hollywood and yet she wants to be ‘in’ so bad she can taste it.
I’ll join the club. Do we wear pink of Thursdays?
I have never been interested in her schtick– I find her deeply unfunny. Also, I’m tired of how she wants to be a Hollywood bombshell, but when she fails (rather miserably) she falls back on the “oh this isn’t my scene” nonsense.
Insert gif of her pal J. Law going “okay.”
I like the idea of the second outfit but the cut of it Is really bad.
Me too. Its just the crinkly fabric of the trousers that’s bad esp. in the crotch area and that its too high. The execution is not great. I don’t mind the top though.
I’m starting to believe there are fashion designers that absolutely loathe lending/giving clothes to certain people.
Just this morning I saw a picture of another actress posing for a premiere picture dressed in what looked like trash bags.
The art profession has a lot of freeloader problems. I can easily see a designer getting fed up with all the free “gimmees” and giving in with a gown made of nightmares.
I used to do it myself in school before I learned of contracts.
Artists are told “I’ll pay you”, work themselves silly, only to have the alleged client welch when it comes time to pay.
If you have a young artist in your INSIST they take some business classes, and get an agent.
It’s 100% a size thing. Designers are horrific at dressing anyone who’s not a sample size, even A-listers who are not sample size massively struggle to find a designer to fit them.
Not sure where the fanfic about “artists” not being paid fits in, since designers are desperate (embarrassingly desperate a lot of the time) to get their clothes on (thin) celebs.
>>>I can easily see a designer getting fed up with all the free “gimmees”
Um, no.
My thoughts too. I just wonder if, when the stylist was preparing her selections, Amy was still sticking to the “I’m a size 6-8” delusion. It’s possible that all the clothes the stylist brought were too small/tight because she “underestimated” the sizes needed. There is also the possibility that, if it was just one designer’s clothes being made available in this instance, those were the biggest sizes that they manufactured.
So she sampled it once and hated it. I dont blame her, it looks like a fashion masturbatory event disguised as a charity gala, especially if you dont get the fuss over clothes.
It looks like the most pretentious event of the year. But who is not aware of that? Why did she think she’d have a good time? And why does she think it’s cool to sh*t on it? It’s the Met Gala. She can’t tell me she didn’t want to fit in. There’s no other reason to go to that craziness.
This is why she’s getting on my nerves. Her brand is girl-next-door with a cutting sense humor. She’s selling relatability but really, she wants to belong to the Goops of the world. And god forbid someone put her in a group with other relatable (plus size) women. No no, that’s too relatable. She thinks she’s better than her brand, that’s all.
Yes. Your last sentence really nails it.
Alla dis.
If Amy had not attended and decided to talk crap about it, I would’ve grown a little bit fonder of her. That event is the pinnacle of vanity, superficiality and pretentiousness; and I can totally see why someone wouldn’t enjoy it. But getting the Vogue cover, go to the gala and then talk crap about it all? That doesn’t make you look badass and relatable, it makes you look like a hypocrite.
I wanted to like Amy but I don’t understand her humor and she’s so exhausting.
This. I remember she once talked about how she was the cute girl in high school, funny and pretty and blonde, and what a belly-drop it was for her to get to college and suddenly not be the hot one, to have guys show no interest. I think having been queen bee in high school has probably never left her, and she still wants to be the popular girl at the top table…but when she gets there, she’s not the hot girl, never will be. To them, she’s the fat funny friend. She’s the girl who gets to be bridesmaid because the bride thinks it’ll make her look better.
She’s made her fortune as that funny loud chubby (for Hollywood) girl next door, but she seems pretty insecure about it – reminds me of one of those girls who will go on and on about having to lose five pounds, but will nevertheless jump on you if you don’t immediately disagree that she needs to. She probably saw herself rock up to the Met Gala, dazzle the crowd in a designer gown, rule the night, steal the show from all the skinny girls…but instead, she just looked kind of meh in a red dress.
You nailed it.
Abso-fucking-lutely. You and Londerland have her number. She absolutely wants to be a Hollywood bombshell and it becomes sour grapes when her attempts don’t work.
@Londerland
The way Amy talks about her weight has always reeked of insecurity. Like she keeps going at it over and over and over again so we all know how much she loves her body and how little she cares about what we have to say. Yet she jumps at anyone who dares make a comment.
Your theory about the MET gala makes a lot of sense, actually. Nobody noticed her, so now she acts like she never cared.
My friend went once when he was acting in a Broadway play (King Charles III) and had a blast but he’s not famous and had no pressure.
She has a right to not have enjoyed the evening. But it is incredibly rude and says a lot about her as a person to talk smack about it publicly, especially in a way that makes it seem as if she was made to go against her will.
I was going to comment but yours pretty much says what I feel about it. She was a guest and went because she wanted too and got benefits from it. Dishing it now feels really unprofessional. She didn’t even had t talk about it, she could’ve move on and simply never go again.
Yep, that’s what I got. Seemed fairy nuff to me.
I agree. I think most people would go once even if fashion wasn’t their thing. I do all sorts of things because I think I should say yes and then curse myself and the world afterwards. Lessons learned and all that jazz.
I agree with you @nicole. I could see many people saying yes and attending to be polite, and then not enjoying it.
I don’t like the gala, I think it’s all pretentious but I would like to go once to really get the feel of it. Oh the gossip I would have afterwards! :DD
First it the Met Gala does raise money for charity so let’s get that fact straight, and does a lot of good for the fashion and retail industry (the foundation of our economy) not to mention the arts.
However, none of this is the point what matters is this little twit got invited and agreed to go, she didn’t have fun which is fine and happens. What is not fine or even in bounds is the publically bashing the event and the GUESTS. All she had to say to Howard was it was a nice event not my typical scene but a nice experience.
There is nothing wrong with being polite this girl should try it.
@Naya
I agree with you. Let her shade if she wants. At least she is being honest. Its not like she is complaining about a Tropical Vacation. Fashion folk are notoriously insufferable. And brutal honesty is her “brand” so she is staying true to that at least.
Agree, except she’s hardly shading the event in the original interview. The article from People (quoted here) is very misrepresentative of that interview. The quotes are scissored and re-ordered. But I do like me some tea.
Thank you Evil Queen for defending Amy. I also don’t think it’s a crime to say she didn’t enjoy the Met and won’t go again. All this Amy bashing is making me uncomfortable. I find her down to earth and hysterically funny. I love her and her brand of comedy. Amy if you’re reading this know you’re loved!
Her dress was probably hella uncomfortable and so was everyone else’s. It can really cast a pall on an event, and it sounds like she was woefully unprepared for that.
I’m sure she expected stuffy fashion nonsense, preening and posing, superficialness and all the rest, but not how much pain everyone would be in. Suffering for beauty and all that. Hence the word “punishment”.
exactly. everything you said. Heck I find high heels uncomfortable so I got rid of them all except for a couple of pairs I wear for my husband… ahem. Comfort first, no one is worth hurting for.
The Met Gala used to be a lot more fun, when it was more of a charity event and less of a celebrity schmoozefest. But still, it is what it is and you know exactly what it’s going to be like.
The ultimate first World problem.
#PrayforAmy
Hah, this is exactly what I was going to say. “Oh, woe is me, I had to dress up in a custom gown and go to the Met Gala! It was horrible, I tell you! Watch me play my tiny violin.” I mean really, all she had to do was turn it down.
I used to be a fan of hers, but the more time that goes by, the less I like her.
For someone who calls herself a comedian, she has absolutely no sense of humour. Complaints, whines, woe is me is her everyday M.O. Please go away size 4 Amy.
Seriously. I guess she doesn’t need to worried about being invited back or to do another Vogue cover now.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Yes!
I agree with Amy that the Met Gala seems, to unkempt, uninterested me, a fate worse than death. I would poke my own eye out rather than attend.
I agree with Kaiser that if this is how you feel, don’t bloody well go!
Agreed. She shouldn’t have gone for a number of reasons.
I’d attend, wearing silk pajamas and velvet slippers. And probably some weird headpiece just to make it interesting. Then I’d sit and eat all the food you know the ladies stuffed into their gowns will be passing up. I’m sure I’d get scorn, but I’d be comfy and they wouldn’t and I’d get to enjoy the lovely nibbles and they wouldn’t so who’s really winning here?
Bahaha! Amy, I generally like you, but please shut up. If she had been funny in her critique, I might’ve appreciated it, but she just sounds like an ungrateful snot about the whole thing. No one forced you go to!
Her dress was the absolute worst. Also is she starting to troll us with unflattering clothing, like Lena Dunham?
God, she’s so annoying. At least Gwyneth owns her snobishness. Amy wants to have her cake and eat it too.
Yeah, I can’t stand her. I get the feeling she was saying what she thought Stern’s listeners would want to hear and she wanted to sound cool. But if she’d been on another show her story might be totally different.
Random comment: I never undestood that “have your cake and eat it too” phrase. I know what it means, but it makes no sense. Why would I want a cake if not for eating it?
Because once you’ve eaten it you no longer have it. It’s gone. You can get a different cake, but that particular cake is never to be had again. It’s an old proverb, applicable to many different situations, which is why it’s used so often.
Haha, I had to have someone explain it to me. You can eat the cake, but then there’s no more cake. So if you want to be carrying around a piece of yummy cake all the time that you want to look forward to eating, then you have to hold off on gobbling it down.
Josefina, people get confused with the meaning because the actual saying goes “Eat your cake and have it, too”. It’s like so many misquoted movie lines… So, in effect, it means you’ve eaten your cake, but still have it, which is impossible, just like having the “situation” both ways.
@Everyone
Thanks for the explanation!
@Annakist
“have your cake and eat it too” does get the point across much better.
Yes, I’ve always thought the phrase should be in reversed order to reflect the real meaning. As in “You want to eat your cake and then still have it.” Or something along those lines.
Amy strikes me as a no kiss ass type of gal. I love her for it. It’s like anything in life you try it once, out of obligation or just to experience something, and if it’s not for you then it isn’t. At least she’s being true to herself.
She strikes me at the type whi kisses ass when it’s convenient.
+1
++++1
When did it become ok to be rude and/or insult others in the name of “being true to yourself”? This has become the go-to excuse for rudeness lately. I think being true to yourself in this case would be NOT attending the Met Gala. Or at least have enough manners not to bad mouth it since she did choose to go.
I don’t see how her saying she didn’t enjoy it is being rude, necessarily. She’s saying it sucked for her, because she felt the interactions were fake and she isn’t into fashion. I think it would have been ruder not to accept the invitation, considering she got the Vogue cover.
And I don’t blame her for wanting to see what it was like amd then realizing it was not for her. Howard Stern asked her about it and she answered candidly. That’s who she is.
This is my point – “that’s who she is” somehow excuses rude behavior.
I guess I am speaking more in a general sense rather than simply about Amy Schumer and her Met Gala comments (not the worst thing ever, but distasteful imo). Maybe it’s this Trump-era idea that not being politically correct or just being yourself allows people to be rude and demean others, but it bothers me that basic manners and/or respect for others seem to be optional lately.
Well that IS who she is- a rude, pathetic individual. Anyone with at least some common courtesy and basic manners would say that she went to see it, that it turned out not to be her thing but she had some fun anyway and won’t repeat the experience, instead of saying that they were “all dressed as fu*** ass***” and such things (and she should only speak of her dressing btw, what gives her the right to insult other people’s clothes).
LOL, please, if she didn’t kiss asses she wouldn’t be where she is now. Even I had to learn to kiss ass every now and then in my stupid boring less competitive work environment, let alone in something so stochastic as showbusiness.
I agree Sherry. She’s a celebrity and she’s promoting her book, upcoming TV/movies…I am sure her agent & publicist told her she had to go. It’s like going to a company holiday party that isn’t mandatory but you know your boss expects you to be there. And we’ve all been there and talked smack about it after.
And I like the halter/gaucho pants. I guess because she’s got some fat on her arms you want her to cover them up and be ashamed? Is that it?
You can still be a gracious person without kissing a**. Instead of trashing the whole event and all the people there, she could have just said something like “I’m not that big into fashion. It just wasn’t for me.”
This is why Anna needs to stop inviting all of these hot for the moment people. The Gala should only be attended by people that truly appreciate the art of clothing. Not these random but popular at the time people who obviously know nothing about the fashion world whatsoever. This way they’ll only have people attending that understand and actually follow the theme of the night instead of all of these fashion blind people just coming in looking like they are attending a basic fancy dress ball without any respect for that year’s topic.
Amy needs to quit this shtick because it isn’t cute.
Exactly! After all the Gala is known for being “exclusive.” That being said, if she’s looking for celebs to boost the popularity, she needs to find invite more Rihannas (people w/ star power who actually follow the invite rules), or have a better way of enforcing the dress code.
+1! It’s a fashion industry gala. If they are going to reach outside of the fashion industry and gala-attending crowd, then they should be selective. I’m sick of every celebrity who has achieved a little bit of success showing up in some blah dress just because their publicist told them it’s an important event to be seen at. They all look uncomfortable and out of place.
And I can’t wait for Amy Schumer’s 15 minutes to be up. She’s vulgar, obnoxious, not funny at all, and apparently an unpleasant ass as well.
True but I don’t see that happening any time soon. If we constanly see Kardashians on the cover of Vogue then probably we should expect lots of 15-minutes-of-fame kind of people in their dull uninspired costumes at the MET Ball
Exactly!! Someone like Amy should have never been let in! She clearly has no style, grace, substance (IMO) and most important love of fashion she is a flash in the pan girl of the moment.
Anna needs to get back to having this be a fashion event.
Vogue is no longer a fashion publication. It’s celebrity lifestyle with a fashion twist. That’s what the gala is now. The pinnacle of superficiality. A red carpet for the sake of a red carpet. When you look at it that way, the list of invites makes a lot of sense.
It was always pretentious as hell, but at least before it used to feature talented people who were truly passionate about fashion.
The impression I had was that she didn’t know how bad it was until she got there. The Gala is probably different than attending an awards show. Although since it is a fashion thing Amy shouldn’t have bothered.
it’s a see and be seen dance. There’s alcohol, and food, and lot of outfits to snark on. It’s not like being held in a cell somewhere.
What does she gain by complaining lmao? Not to mention she’s burning bridges she can’t afford to lose
On the contrary, she can afford to say whatever she wants. I think she got something like a $9 million dollar advance on her book deal alone. Besides, saying what she thinks is her schtick.
“Saying what she thinks is her schtick.”
She could start doing what she thinks then. If she thinks these events are so stupid why did she go?
Burning bridges means that eventually the offers STOP coming in. The adage of being nice on the way way is true. It’s a long fall from grace when you’ve shat on the niceties offered you while you were on top.
She is annoying to say the least and not relatable at all.
I don’t remember who said it but I totally agree with the fact that she is the human version of a cabbage patch doll.
LMFAO!!!! I can totally see that.
She needs to wear one size up in everything. It’s not about the number, it’s about how the clothes fall. That outfit could be cute. Also, she needs to stop with trends and get herself some clothes that suit her personality and body type! She whines so much. Yet still, I love her!
she is like Ricky Gervais and im not saying that because they have the same job. but all this “im too cool for that but am still totally doing it while posting pictures of it and non stop talking about it.
they both care so much to talk about stuff they dont care at all about…
Most perfect comparison ever. I can’t stand Ricky Gervais.
Echo that, it had never struck me before but you are right. Neither of them half as funny as they think they are.
I do like her and I think she’s really funny. But I agree that she’s getting annoying. She jokes about being average size but then seems insulted when people call her that. She jokes about being weird but then seems offended when people don’t act like she’s the coolest thing ever. I guess I do get it- we are all pretty insecure. But I agree with the article. This is too much whining.
I don’t even understand why The Met Gala is still considered a hot ticket event these days, it having lost any pretence at select or avant garde long since.
She went because she wanted to be seen to be there; she is now wishing to run a I didn’t really want to be seen for the sake of being seen to be there. Zero tolerance for her maunderings on the subject.
This is the kind of event you know ahead of time not to go to. I mean, hasn’t she done her Meyers-Briggs? In all seriousness, talking like this makes it look like you attended solely to make fun of it, and that’s mean girl behavior. Just because you’re counter culture, doesn’t mean you get to be an a**hole now that you have a little power.
Listening to her is a punishment! And what’s up with the model pose on the sidewalk?
somewhere in LA victoria beckham is throwing darts at a picture of amy’s american vogue cover muttering incoherently while she smears lipstick all over her face….
haha, lizzie!
Anyone else tired of the BS that comes out of this chicks mouth?????? WTF!!!
me. can’t stand her.
“You can’t be “the normal, down-to-earth, average-sized girl”…AND be the woman who gets Vogue covers and attends the Met Gala.”
Why? Who created this ultimatum?
Tiffany, I was wondering the same thing. Gonna have to stop reading celebitchy soon…
LOL I say the same to myself almost every day!
Red dress, Fashion FAIL.
Amy Schumer, enough already.
hmm, funny how she says this AFTER being on the cover of Vogue (but she has no interest in fashion). no one put a gun to her head and forced her to go to the Met Gala. I don’t like her. she’s just vulgar, not funny. and her personality is surely lacking.
I can’t stand this girl. I’ve tried, but she is just not funny, she is actually gross, she is beyond rude all the time (google her comedy actress round table from last year or two years ago poor Tracy Ross), and as much as she acts like she is above fame she is the thirstiest person in Hollywood. And let’s be real she has just been given the voice of their generation, relatable girl press Lena got that frankly neither deserved.
I mean really going to one of the most exclusive events in New York is punishment that she suffered? You know she has suffered, I mean no one knows her pain or the indignity she has endured. This punishment is just wow. She should have left walked west 3 blocks to the church that has the homeless town pop up after dark and let them know how lucky they are compared to her or go a 20 or so blocks north to the food bank and told them of her trials so they could comfort her. She could meet the people arriving as refugees from Syria and tell them about her horrible experience of having to make trite conversation in a $8,000 gown.
I mean seriously no one should get more sympathy then Amy. Poor thing why is the Red Cross helping the poeple of Lousiana when Amy Schumer had to speak to Beyoncé!!
She gets on my nerves too but I reckon people are being a bit harsh here. Going to the Met Gala was probably a professional obligation for her. She frocked up, went, hated it and told Howard Stern. Big deal. I reckon Anna Wintour can cop that. Tina Fey said something similar a few years back on Letterman and no-one cared.
We sometimes have a crack at celebrities for sounding like boring, safe automatons while also calling those who are vaguely honest rude and hypocritical. I don’t really get the big deal here.
Her ‘love’ for a misogynist Kurt Metzger is a different matter for me…
It’s the way she says it, and honestly everything she constantly complains. If she had said you know I was honored to be invited but I’m not sure I fit in with the Met Gala no one would say boo. If she had said it was nice but I’m not sure Id go again not my scene fine. She didn’t she called it punishment, she insulted the other guests and mocked what it was about .
Yeah I don’t even like this woman but even I can’t match the outrage on this thread.
She didn’t like the Mat Gala and said as much. Who gives a sh*t?
Going to the Met Gala was NOT a professional obligation for her. Many A lister have never went and many comedian have never went. She went because she wanted to be seen at the Me with that crowd.
You’re all missing the point. Why did she go to an event she probably didn’t want to go to? For the comedy fodder. She’s a comedian. Going to this event or doing a Vogue cover is her next comedy special. The double standard is incredible. Louis CK does things all the time that he hates and then talks about but no one is like “Oh, he shouldn’t gave gone then…he’s so last year…” You people have to realize that Ms. Schumer worked her ass off to get where she is today – I remember seeing her on those roasts years ago and wondering why she wasn’t more well known (Geez I guess it really doesn’t happen over night). Because she’s so relatable and likeable in her comedy many people think of her like their friend who just happened to get famous and then when she gets too famous, the bitching and moaning starts. Howzabout instead of bitching about someone you don’t know on a website you didn’t create, you throw yourself into your work like Amy and everyone famous you’ve heard about, and go and do something with your own lives? Every time Amy Schumer makes me laugh I can guarantee you that it will further erode these negative comments I’ve read on here, which means ultimately, that you’re all wasting your time. Funny is funny and her comedy career doesn’t have an expiry date as much as some of you hope it does.
I don’t find her relatable and likable at all. Just the opposite, actually. I watched her HBO standup special expecting it would be great and turned it off in disgust after 10 minutes. It was nothing but vulgar stories about her sexual encounters, which unfortunately were not at all funny.
I just hope she doesn’t drag Jennifer Lawrence down with her. Jennifer is who Amy tries so hard to be and I think Jennifer is the real deal, but the two of them together at the Golden Globes were obnoxious. The fact that both of them have such hot careers right now but still can’t find a buyer for their screenplay tells me all I need to know about that project. Hopefully that shit will get tossed into a drawer and forgotten.
Aw, look at you all up in your feels about us ‘jellus hatrz.’ Bless.
@Moxxi Are you Amy? 🙁
Wow simmer down there super stan. You can like whomever you want, that’s cool. Nobody is concerned with that. But there are many that don’t like her and I personally can’t relate to ONE thing she’s ever said or done. I think she’s vile in every way and I am as entitled to ignore and boycott her garbage as you are to enthusiastically consume it. No big deal. Funny is subjective BTW and not everyone finds her funny just FYI. I did really enjoy the “Do something with ur lives u jelly h8rz” though. Haven’t seen that tired old trite line in a long time 😀
Yeah, I’d better take a break from my busy career, active charity life, family, and friends and do something with my life. Because, you know, I’m unbelievably jealous of Amy Schumer. Oh wait. No. I’m actually not. I just don’t care for her.
That posted in the wrong place. It should have been under Moxxi’s post.
She said a lot of different things in that Stern interview (including how she’s boning her hot boyfriend every free moment she has, so yay for her), but she wasn’t even being funny about the Met. She just wanted to blast it. She gets brownie points for being honest, I suppose, but it still comes off as unprofessional and hypocritical. I do think Stern has a talent for extracting frank and honest admissions from his interviewees, so perhaps Schumer was talking to him as she would any friend. And let’s be honest, we all say questionable shit when among just friends. But a public interview isn’t really the place to come off as an ungrateful twat.
She’s a pathetic loser. When will her 15 minutes be over! She’s soooo not funny. She comes off as a d-bag!
I really want to like her but I’m so over her. She’s always backhanded bragging and is way too impressed with herself.
I totally get the “pretending to have a conversation ” drag – the small talk you have to make during big events is tiring enough and to know that you have to make sure you look like you are having a good time while doing it (because there are photographers) is even worse.
With that being sad is still go and wear an amazing, crazy, uncomfortable fashion!
That’s part of being in showbiz tho. She seems happy enough to go to other shallow events where she dresses up and they give her some dumb award and she promotes herself and her projects.
She was lucky to land a Vogue cover to promote her book, and she was also lucky to have gotten an invite to the Gala. If one evening at a gala is too much of a drag for her to tolerate, she should just turn down future invites.
I go to plenty of dull events for my job where I have to make small talk with people when I’d rather be at home. That’s just life.
“I have no interest in fashion”
Such a pity. Having your best friend (Lawrence) being a Dior égérie and not being interested. Damn, she could get you cool accessories, handbags.
Well everybody seems to hate her now but once the promo tour with Lawrence starts, the tide will turn. America’s sweetheart loves her, she’ll be cool by association.
Nah…what makes fashion anyway? Some people that try and part fools from their money. It seems like a huge scam to me and I’d rather have the money than clothes that will be “out of style” in a year and where would I wear them anyways on a farm? Lol yes let me put on a thousand dollar dress to clean my coops or weed the garden! Nothing to me is better than getting a deal on clothes and branded items are lame…no thanks I’m not paying big bucks to advertise for your brand. It is likely different for city people and no judgment on how others spend their $$ but for me personally it seems really wasteful and ridiculous. I can’t tell a difference in the knock off and the real anyways other than quality but even “quality” items now are shoddily made.
That’s why I said the cool part was getting them for free, avoiding the shilling of thousands of dollars. And you can perfectly pick non branded items from luxury brands. I also hate those giant letters on bags, glasses. And I left out any mention of dresses or clothes because, nowadays, even for free, I’m not sure anyone would be that thrilled about a Dior frock. Accessories can be around for many years and not be out of style.
Lawrence IS PAID to advertise for the brand. My tongue in cheek comment meant that, even if not paid, Schumer could have freebies. Neither of them are in a position of “rather the money than the clothes”. I don’t see how what I wrote prompts “those idiots paying big bucks for useless items made by scamming artists are so ridiculous, but I don’t judge them” answer. But English no being my first language I probably didn’t phrase it well.
Actually I am afraid the opposite is true. Jennifer Lawrence is getting a stink about her just from hanging around Schumer and people are beginning to turn against her too.
both of them together will be hard to take anyway. one of them gets too much after time i cant imagine them together in all those interviews. the promo tour will lead to backlash.
Maybe she thought it might be fun and realized it wasn’t her thing. Shrug. It happens.
This is a tough industry and people sacrifice a lot for it. There is no shortage of struggling artists out there who would die for the breaks and the opportunities this woman has gotten. If she thinks she is above it all and does not want to be there she should shut up, go home and stop using up and shitting on someone else’s dream.
I think being a non-fashion person she was doomed to have a bad time at a fashion based event.
Designers can talk to designers, models can talk to models, actors to actors, but who does the plucky comedian in the ill fitting dress talk to? I’m sure there were plenty of “real conversations” going on around her but when you find yourself in a group of people you are preconceived to have nothing in common with – you resort to small talk.
She could’ve used the event to network or to advance her own career. Meet some new people. Instead it was punishment because it’s not her line of interest. Kinda poor form on her side for not making the most of a big opportunity she (after blasting them) will prob never get again.
You can make the choice to enjoy any event. I’m not into sports but I can enjoy being in the stadium with friends.
Perhaps her outfit in the last pictures doesn’t fit great and it looks a little odd to us. But do you notice what she has in those pics that she doesn’t in the ones from the Met? A smile.
Maybe I missed something but why go if you hate it so much?
She tried and apparently was her personal fail. Is it wrong for her to be honest? It sounds like a bit of hell- the stars don’t have any unique expression and it’s like a giant stylist contest -super contrived and wooden.
No I really was asking if someone, publicist, producer, whomever, forced her to go. If so, then being vocal about hating it make sense.
*Sigh*. Its totally fine to not have fun at the event. But at the same time, what are you expecting. If you’re not into fashion or schmoozing with the fashion crowd then why go? If you’re doing it purely for the publicity then just shut up and do it. Bad mouthing it isnt going to make you cooler and is just gonna leave a bad taste in people’s mouths.
Does she ever stop moaning? She has a pretty fantastic life right now, and all she does is whine? BTW, darling, those outfits do nothing for your size 6 figure. (I’m not body shaming her, she keeps stating she’s a size 6!)
I don’t buy it. She is definitely interested in fashion or she wouldn’t be attending the Met Gala and she wouldn’t be doing mag covers and wearing the outfits she currently wears for interviews and gigs on others’ shows. The problem is, even though she’s talked a good talk, she can’t pull it off. Maybe if she had a personal stylist it would help with her choices and help her to dress for her build, but hiring a stylist would be the end all to her “I’m not interested and I’m just an average woman” schtick.
