Amy Schumer is keeping people updated on her health.

The 43-year-old comedian informed fans about her experience with taking an alternative weight loss drug called Mounjaro, after she couldn’t handle the side effects of Wegovy.

“Three years ago I tried Wegovy, and I was like puking. I couldn’t handle it. I don’t know if they like, changed the formula or whatever,” she said in an Instagram video.

The Kinda Pregnant star then went on to detail her process of meeting with Midi Health, which prescribed her hormones estrogen and progesterone, and Glp-1 drug

Mounjaro.

“My symptoms of being in perimenopause have disappeared. My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy,” she said.

“Mounjaro has been great,” she added, before noting that it is typically not covered by insurance unless patients have “diabetes” or “severe obesity.”

Plot twist: still legally married...

The world of entertainment is not just a fairyland for actors, directors, and screenwriters to unleash their creativity but it is also a highly competitive field where projects often end up dead before they can even take flight. While one cannot miss what they have never seen, it certainly hurts when a project is taken off air due to one or the other reason. And that is exactly the case for Life & Beth and the millions of fans of the series.

Despite having an intriguing premise, with instances inspired by lead star Amy Schumer’s real-life experience, the show has been taken off the air, stirring the emotions of its devoted fan base. Created and led by Schumer, the series struck a delicate balance between humor and heartfelt storytelling, resonating deeply with viewers who saw themselves reflected in its relatable themes.

A candid exploration of personal growth,...

Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence's long-awaited sister comedy is unlikely to ever come to fruition.The two actresses had revealed in 2015 they were writing a screenplay for a movie in which they'd play sisters but now the 'Trainwreck' star thinks too much time has passed for the project to work.Speaking to Variety for their Power of Women issue, she said: “I don’t think it will ever happen. It was just, like, life kept going. My family was going through a rough time. I don’t want to say any more than that.”Jennifer, 33, agreed: “Now that we’re older, a sister comedy might not resonate as much."But the pair still want to do something together.Amy, 42, said: “The way we’re hoping our careers go, we might do something with more grit and teeth.”Her friend added: "We have every intention of working together.

Amy Schumer is entirely on-brand in an interview, which is to say utterly without pretense. She’s free of makeup, her blonde hair tied up behind her head and wearing a T-shirt that reads “Ask Your Mom.” It’s how she likes to present to the world, whether it be in her career or personal lives (which often tend to intersect). She’s here on Zoom to talk about the 10-episode second season of her semi-autobiographical Hulu romantic dramedy “Life and Beth,” during which she fictionally, but pointedly, addresses two subjects close to her heart: her Judaism and her real-life husband’s autism spectrum disorder, or Asd. This kind of candor is simply what she does. “I’ve always been like this,” she explains. “I don’t really know why. I think I’ve just always had a low threshold for small talk and so I can’t really help it.

Amy Schumer revealed on Friday she has been diagnosed with Cushing syndrome, a condition caused by excessive cortisol. The news comes on the heels of Schumer’s response to fan comments that her face appeared puffier than normal.

“I feel reborn,” she told Jessica Yellin in the journalist’s News Not Noise newsletter. The actress went on to explain, “There are a few types of Cushing. Some that can be fatal, require brain surgery or removal of adrenal glands.”

Schumer said she was doing press for her Life & Beth season two, the Hulu series she created and stars in, while also undergoing extensive medical testing, “in Mri machines four hours at a time, having my veins shut down from the amount of blood drawn and thinking I may not be around to see my son grow up.”

She said the tests eventually revealed “the kind of Cushing that will...

With Life & Beth season two, Amy Schumer is no longer worried about spoilers. After all, this story is in the details.

The follow-up season to her semi-autobiographical Hulu dramedy, which launched all 10 episodes on Thursday, centers on the romantic relationship between Beth (Schumer) and John (played by Michael Cera), who — as the trailer revealed — get married early on in the new season. As the season progresses, Beth starts to notice certain behaviors in John and suggests that they check them out, together. Early in their marriage, John is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (Asd).

According to Schumer, talking about John’s diagnosis on the day that the new season launches will not ruin the viewing experience. “They really put everything in the trailer, which at first I was like, ‘Um, excuse me?'” recalls the creator, writer and director with a laugh. “And they were like, ‘Well, it will...

In 2022, Amy Schumer starred in two different series. One was the long-delayed fifth season of her sketch comedy show Inside Amy Schumer, which had been absent for six years while Schumer focused on family and on other professional opportunities. The other was Hulu’s Life & Beth, a semi-autobiographical dramedy where Schumer played an unhappy woman who moved back into her childhood home in Long Island after the loss of her mother, trying for a fresh start to a life that hadn’t gone as she once hoped.

The return...

No hostage left behind.

So many of your favorite stars have come together to thank President Biden for his efforts in working to peace amid the Israel-Gaza conflict.

Amid the news that two American hostages and two Israeli hostages have been released from captivity, Hollywood heavyweights are hoping for the safe return of the 220 innocent people who are still being held hostage by Hamas.

“We are heartened by Friday’s release of the two American hostages, Judith Ranaan and her daughter Natalie Ranaan and by today’s release of two Israelis, Nurit Cooper and Yocheved Lifshitz, whose husbands remain in captivity,” the letter read.

The letter continued, “But our relief is tempered by our overwhelming concern that 220 innocent people, including 30 children, remain captive by terrorists, threatened with torture and death. They were taken by Hamas in the savage massacre of October 7, where over 1,400 Israelis were slaughtered – women raped, families burned alive,...

Sarah Jessica Parker wore a white coat over a red dress for her appearance at the Good+Foundation’s A Very Good+ Night of Comedy 2023 benefit gala.

The Sex and the City actress was one of the many stars in attendance at the comedy event and fundraiser on Wednesday night (October 18) at Carnegie Hall in New York City.

Good+Foundation, founded by Jessica Seinfeld, is a leading national nonprofit that works to dismantle multi-generational poverty by pairing tangible goods with innovative services for low-income fathers, mothers and caregivers, creating an upward trajectory for the whole family.

Jessica‘s husband Jerry Seinfeld performed at the event alongside Amy Schumer, Ronny Chieng, and Kevin Hart.

Some of the other celebs in attendance at the event included Mariska Hargitay and Peter Hermann, Debra Messing, and Amy‘s husband Chris Fischer, among others.

“In 2022, we served 275,000 families and distributed $12,466,296 worth of goods. So far this year,...

Amy Schumer strikes out with several celebrities she asks to be emergency contact in a clip shared by Netflix on Monday ahead of the Tuesday premiere of “Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact.”

After telling her confused husband Chris Fischer she has no idea what name to put on the form, Schumer calls Jennifer Lawrence, who gives her the cold shoulder: “We were, like, barely friends 10 years ago. How did you get this number? I don’t want to get back in touch. Good luck with your health issue,” the actress says before hanging up.

Chris Rock is surprisingly enthusiastic, telling her, “Absolutely. You should call me if anything goes wrong, like Harvey Keitel in ‘Pulp Fiction.'” But she hangs up on him when he adds, “People are going to be rooting for your death.”

American actress and comedian Amy Schumer has called out a bunch of celebrities, claiming they are lying about their weight loss.

The actress who recently dropped out of ‘Barbie’ is not mincing her words and blasted stars for saying they lost weight by simply eating “smaller portions” and “lying” about not using the Ozempic drug for their weight loss.

Ozempic is an anti-diabetic medication used for treating type 2 diabetes as well as obesity. Currently the drug is widely used in Hollywood by actors for weight loss.

According to E! Online, she said: “Everyone and their mom is gonna try it. Everyone has been lying saying, ‘Oh, smaller portions.”

She further said on ‘Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen’ on June 8: “Like, shut the f*** up. You are on Ozempic or one of those things, or you got work done. Just stop.”

Schumer also said that she’s never...

Amy Schumer revealed why she dropped out of the “Barbie” movie during an appearance on Thursday’s “Watch What Happens Live”.

It was confirmed back in 2017 that Schumer had dropped out of the upcoming live-action flick; now starring Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Simu Liu, Will Ferrell, Emma Mackey and more.

At the time, they cited scheduling conflicts for the reason Schumer backed out of the much-talked about film.

The comedian told host Andy Cohen on “Wwhl” of why she dropped out and whether she’ll be seeing the film: “I can’t wait to see the movie, I think it looks awesome.

“I think we said it was scheduling conflicts, that’s what we said. But yeah, it really was just creative differences.

Amy Schumer and her husband, Chris Fischer, are celebrating five years of marriage.

The 41-year-old comedian shared a blurry photo of her and Fischer, 43, engaged in a smooch to her Instagram on Monday to announce the five-year mark of their wedding anniversary.

The pair’s celebrity friends swarmed in the comment section to show their support for the marriage milestone. Rachel Bilson commented with a simple fire emoji, while singer-songwriter Vanessa Carlton wrote: “All the vibes say yes.”

Schumer and Fischer were first rumoured to be together in November 2017 after photos of the pair enjoying a candlelit dinner in New York City surfaced.

From there, the couple made their Instagram official in February 2018 before making their marriage official at an intimate wedding in Malibu.

The couple has since dashed several milestones together,...

Comedian Amy Schumer called out Kanye West‘s recent antisemitic remarks during her Nov. 5 Saturday Night Live monologue.

Schumer addressed the rapper while joking about her husband, Chris Fischer‘s, recent autism spectrum disorder diagnosis.

“It used to be called Asperger’s, but then they found out — this is true — that Dr. Asperger had Nazi ties, Kanye,” the I Feel Pretty star quipped.

In a since-deleted Oct. 8 tweet, the Donda rapper threatened “to go death con 3 On Jewish People.” He added, “You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone who ever opposes your agenda.”

Schumer isn’t the only celebrity who has denounced West’s antisemitic remarks over the past month.

Jewish actress and activist Jamie Lee Curtis responded on Twitter, “The holiest day in Judaism was last week. Words matter. A threat to Jewish people ended once in a genocide.”

Whenever “Saturday Night Live” taps a stand-up comic to host, the monologue usually ends up being particularly strong, because it’s essentially a stand-up set. With Amy Schumer at the helm this weekend, the monologue proved to be a hilarious and raunchy highlight of the evening.

Schumer kicked things off talking about her son, Gene, whom she welcomed via c-section in May 2019, and her post-birth sex life with husband Chris Fischer.

“No matter how you give birth, the doctors all tell you — it could be vaginal, c-section…. But they tell you, no matter what, the doctors say, ‘You cannot have sex for six weeks. You got it? Six weeks, no sex,'” Schumer recalled. “I was like, ‘Ok! Remember when you just Wolverined me open? Remember that? How about six years?'”

“My husband and I, we do have a good sex life,” she continued. “We have found that the...

Amy Schumer’s opening monologue on Saturday Night Live touched on abortion access, the upcoming midterm elections and her husband’s autism spectrum disorder.

The Nov. 5 episode of SNL marked Schumer’s third time hosting the comedy sketch series and comes a few days before the “midterm abortions” as the host called it during her monologue, before correcting herself to say “elections.”

“Sorry, I was thinking about what’s at stake if we don’t vote,” Schumer said. “People love giving pregnant women advice, don’t they? Like the whole time I was pregnant, I had this one friend, she kept telling me ‘You gotta do prenatal yoga. It really helps with the birth.’ So, I immediately signed up… for a C-section.”

She went on to say that after someone gives birth, the doctors insist that they do not have sex for six...

The most recent episode of Inside Amy Schumer was a fairly innocuous one. A clip show featuring snippets of sketches from all four seasons of the show, it was framed by a parody of a Real Housewives reunion, with a spray-tanned Schumer and co-stars like Bridget Everett cursing each other out while Andy Cohen looked on with amusement.

This was June 16, 2016 — the before of the before times. The presidential election and all the ugliness that followed it wouldn’t be for another four months, Covid was years away, abortion was still legal nationwide,...

Amy Schumer is one proud mom. Et’s Rachel Smith spoke to the 41-year-old comedian at the premiere of “Inside Amy Schumer” in New York City on Tuesday, and she gave a sweet update on her 3-year-old son, Gene, whom she shares with her husband, Chris Fischer.

“I can’t. I can’t handle it. He’s too cute. He’s too cute and he’s talking so much,” Schumer said. “And he’s a supreme athlete, just [for] any recruiters. People go, ‘Who works out? Where does he get it from?’ I’m like ‘What do you mean?'”

Schumer, who attended Tuesday’s event with Fischer, was excited to finally debut new episodes of her show after a six-year hiatus.

“Has it really been six years? Oh my gosh,” Schumer said. “I only want to say something if I feel like it can actually be funny and helpful. I...

It’s difficult being a mom on the road for Amy Schumer.

The comedian spoke with The New Yorker about her upcoming “Whore Tour” which will see her touring 42 U.S. cities for a few months. While she was looking forward to it, she couldn’t help the feeling of guilt as a mother as she prepared to set off.

“I always want to cancel everything, and I always try,” Schumer told the outlet on the morning her tour began. “The thing that weighs on me is being away.”

Amy Schumer ran into some unexpected trouble with her doula Domino Kirke.  If you remember, back in May 2019, the Expecting Amy star and her husband Chris Fischer welcomed their first child together, a baby boy named Gene, with the help of Domino. However, Amy admitted that she ended up letting go of Domino shortly after giving birth because she was simply too lovely. "Domino is like a goddess. She's an actual floating siren around the house," Amy told Domino's husband Penn Badgely, on the June 22 episode of the Podcrushed podcast. "She's so like, just lovely and when she touches you just kind of melt.

The Her Foundation announces that Emmy-winning and Golden Globe-nominated standup comedian, actress, writer, producer, and director Amy Schumer will join the Her Foundation’s Board of Directors in time to celebrate the 11th annual Hg Awareness Day on Sunday, May 15th.

Schumer experienced Hyperemesis Gravidarum while pregnant with her son, Gene, and documented the journey with husband, Chris Fischer, in her docuseries, Expecting Amy. “Hyperemesis gravidarum is real and it’s awful. I was fortunate to have access to healthcare during my pregnancy. Many suffering from Hg struggle to be properly diagnosed and to receive the treatment they need.

Amy Schumer unveiled the joke that she wasn’t permitted to tell at this year’s Oscars ceremony during a Friday stand-up show for Netflix’s comedy festival. And, no, it wasn’t another one about Alec Baldwin.

“I don’t know why they said no,” Schumer begins in the clip posted to Instagram, right before she launches into the joke that utilized the titles of a bunch of Oscar-nominated films.

“So my husband was going down on me… or as he calls it, ‘Squid Game,'” she said. “So… he’s in my ‘Nightmare Alley,’ my ‘House of Gucci,’ and I say ‘C’mon C’mon,’ you know?” she continued, name-checking some of the past year’s awards-circuit films. “He goes ‘tick, tick… Boom!’ He ‘Belfast.’ I say, Get off my ‘Dune’! And that’s how our son was born.”

“What do you think?” she asked the cheering audience.

“The show gets immediately into some really emotionally charged stories that were really personal to me,” production designer Joshua Petersen shares about what drew him to Hulu’s “Life and Beth,” which was created by and stars Amy Schumer. The series toggles between present-day Manhattan, where Schumer’s character Beth works as a wine distributor, and 1990s Long Island in flashbacks to Beth’s adolescence. Those flashbacks really appealed to Petersen, who relished the opportunity to capture “the life and color of childhood” and create “an interesting palate and an arc and a through line.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

“Life and Beth” draws a lot of its inspiration from Schumer’s own life, and Petersen talks about collaborating closely with her to accurately recreate her past for the series. “Right from the beginning, I came back to New York to start and she had left flowers and a...

The 2022 Oscars will look different than any of the past 93 ceremonies as there will be three funny ladies taking the stage as co-hosts: Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall. It’s a vast difference from the three most recent Academy Awards broadcasts when ABC and the show’s producers decided to go host-less, with varying degrees of success. In this article, we’ll fill you in on everything to know about Oscars host Amy Schumer before the ceremony begins at 8 p.m. Et/5 p.m. Pt on Sunday, March 27.

Who is Amy Schumer?

Born on June 1, 1981 in New York City, Schumer’s parents initially owned a baby furniture company until it went bankrupt when she was nine. After high school, she moved to Maryland for college and graduated with a theater degree in 2003. Schumer’s first job in the entertainment industry was as an actress in the off-Broadway play “Keeping Abreast,...

For a few years in the mid-2010s, Amy Schumer was as prominent and acclaimed a comic voice as there was to be found anywhere in American pop culture. Her Comedy Central show Inside Amy Schumer wickedly parodied the television of the day. (Josh Charles came in for note-perfect spoofs of both Friday Night Lights and The Newsroom, the latter “bestowed upon you by Aaron Sorkin.”) It dug deep on the strange and terrible ways society could view women, or that women could view themselves, whether in the implied homoeroticism...

Actress-comedienne Amy Schumer has revealed that she is “not hoping either way” about her son Gene being diagnosed like his father Chris Fischer, who has autism spectrum disorder.

The baby news was accidentally revealed on Friday, March 4, in a joint interview with Entertainment Tonight, during which Amy spoke about passing down lessons to her 2-year-old son Gene, who she shares with husband Chris Fischer. "Michael has a baby, too," she shared, before realizing her gaffe. "Is that public knowledge?...I just outed him, I just outed his baby." The Arrested Development alum went on to confirm to the outlet that he had been trading parenting tips with his castmate, saying,...

Where oh where has Amy Schumer gone the last few years? Frankly, some are glad she left the spotlight, but relax, everyone: there’s a legitimate reason Schumer hasn’t been around very much the last few years. Schumer married chef Chris Fischer in 2018, then had a child with him in 2019, and then, you know, Covid happened. So, no surprise that Schumer’s family life took precedence over her career recently.

On Sunday, Feb. 6, the comedian shared a photo of herself sitting on what appears to be the floor of a kids' gym with her and husband Chris Fischer's 2-year-old son Gene, their first child, with a heart emoji covering his face. She wrote, "Being his mom is heaven on earth and also means a constant feeling of guilt and vulnerability I will never get used to."

Amy Schumer revealed she is recovering from surgery after having her uterus and appendix removed.

In an Instagram post shared on Sunday, the comedian posed in her hospital gown next to the caption, “If you have really painful periods you may have #endometriosis.” The following slide included a video filmed by her husband, Chris Fischer, from her hospital bed. “It’s the morning after my surgery for endometriosis and my uterus is out,” she explained. “The doctor found 30 spots of endometriosis he removed.

Amy Schumer is recovering after undergoing surgery to treat endometriosis, during which she says her uterus and appendix were removed. The 40-year-old comedian and actress, who underwent IVF last year in a bid to conceive her second child, revealed her recent procedure in an Instagram video posted on Saturday, Sept. 18. Amy spoke to her husband, Chris Fischer, who filmed her as she lay on a hospital bed.

Here's proof Amy Schumer found her perfect match. The comedian, who turned 40 on June 1, received a surprising message from husband Chris Fischer while celebrating her milestone day. In a hilarious video posted to her Instagram, Amy could be seen sitting at a table with her loved ones—including son Gene—as her husband presented her with a birthday cake, featuring the message, "I'm leaving you. This was the only way I could think to do it." Her reaction to the joke? Speechless. After seeing the video, Amy's friends couldn't help but laugh. "I mean, it's ironic because this proves he's the best," Erika Christensen commented on the...

When Amy Schumer first discovered she was pregnant, she could never have predicted the tough road the pregnancy would take her on, much less that it would be the subject of a three-part documentary miniseries for HBO Max.

The comedian was in the throes of preparing a comedy special when she was struck with hyperemesis gravidarum, a hugely debilitating condition that affects around 1% of pregnant women, meaning they experience prolonged and severe nausea and vomiting beyond the first trimester. From hospitalizations, to performing in front of crowds of thousands, to moments at home with her husband Chris Fischer, Schumer shares it all in Expecting Amy.

“Once I started getting really sick, I think [filming] was a defense mechanism that made me feel like I was in some sort of control since I had no control over my body,” Schumer said, speaking during a virtual panel at Deadline’s Contenders Television: Documentary + Unscripted awards-season event.

When it comes to her post-baby sex life, new mom Amy Schumer is an open book.  During her April 28 interview with SiriusXM's Comedy Gold Minds with Kevin Hart, the Trainwreck actress got real about what it's been like hooking up with her husband Chris Fischer, two years after the birth of their first baby, Gene David Fischer. She explained to Kevin that her "p--y" has changed a lot since having her first child.  "It's honestly just like, huge now and just garbage," she joked. "It's just street trash."

Amy Schumer is getting real about motherhood. During the Feb. 3 episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, Seth Meyers brought up how parents often judge themselves and asked the comedian if she thinks she's a good mom. "Actually, no," the 39-year-old star replied. "It's interesting. You don't know how good you're going to be of a parent. I got some nice advice from Natalie Portman, who was like, 'You have more instincts than you know you have.' And what I'm finding is that Natalie Portman is a huge liar. Because so far, my instincts are all wrong." For instance, Schumer talked about how she and her husband Chris Fischer often try to "sneak out" when...

That's one birthday serenade Amy Schumer's husband, Chris Fischer, will never forget. The 39-year-old comedian took to Instagram on Monday, Jan. 4 to post a video of herself celebrating the chef turning 41 years old. The footage showed Amy serenading Chris as they enjoyed a sweet treat. And while it's common to sing "Happy Birthday" to mark such a milestone, Amy decided to ditch the traditional tune and belt out a true original. As Chris listened to his wife show off her range, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.  "To my husband on his birthday," Amy captioned the clip. "The greatest gift. The gift of song." Amy wasn't the only one to send Chris well-wishes....

When it comes to motherhood, Amy Schumer remains an open book.  As the comedian raises son Gene, 14 months, with husband Chris Fischer, the new parent continues to learn more and more everyday about what it means to be a mom. So perhaps it's only fitting that when iHeartRadio Originals launched its latest podcast What to Expect, co-hosts Heidi Murkoff and her daughter Emma Bing wanted to have Amy on the show. In E! News' exclusive preview of the Wednesday Aug. 5 premiere episode, Amy opened up about her first year of motherhood including her experience with "new parents sex." "Well, you know, it's like they say, you can't have...

Five months into the coronavirus pandemic, and Television Academy voters already seem to be over the plethora of remotely produced content created during, and in response to, the new social-distancing health and safety guidelines. Only one such program, Food Network’s “Amy Schumer Learns to Cook: Lunch Break and Pasta Night,” scored a nomination at the 72nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

“I think, ultimately, it was determined by human psychology: people wanted to watch something that was opposite of the darkness we’re living in,” says awards consultant Richard Licata of Licata & Co.

“Amy Schumer Learns to Cook,” which features the titular comedian and her husband, chef Chris Fischer, preparing meals out of whatever they happen to have in their kitchen (or for which they can forage from their neighbors’ gardens), broke into the unstructured reality program race this year. While not directly commenting on the progress (or lack thereof...

In June, two perennial Food Network shows, Guy Fieri’s “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” and Robert Irvine’s “Restaurant: Impossible,” went back into production. It was the first time either show shot on location since the coronavirus pandemic brought all television and film production to a dramatic halt in mid-March. They were filmed under strict, new Covid-19 protocols with reduced, mask-wearing crews — all of whom, according to Food Network, tested negative for coronavirus after filming was completed.

Courtney White, the president of Food Network and Cooking Channel, says the network agreed to restart production after creating specific plans for each show. “It isn’t one-size-fits-all,” White tells Variety. “But we did start with: Where can we film with the smallest footprint, the smallest crew — where everybody is very comfortable, and everybody’s on board? Obviously in this scenario, everybody feels different about their own personal willingness to step out of their house.

Amy Schumer Learns to Cook Season 2 now has a trailer and a premiere date (it’s sooner than you think!), and both serve as a reminder that this lowfi Food Network show was one of the best things to come out of this pandemic. In the early days of quarantine, Food Network reached out to Schumer and her acclaimed chef husband Chris Fischer to see if they’d want to make a cooking show from their home. They obliged, and the result was Amy Schumer Learns to Cook. It’s literally just Chris and Amy in their kitchen cooking, …...

In the world of stand-up comedy Amy Schumer is an acquired taste. Bursting onto television screens in 2013 with her groundbreaking comedy series “Inside Amy Schumer,” the actress/writer/comedienne has used her platform to discuss everything from her vagina, to rape culture, to double standards when it comes to beauty. Her work is especially feminine and where stand-up remains a boys club, it’s easy to see why people who don’t like Schumer really don’t like her.

Regardless of the misogyny in the industry, Schumer has carried on, documenting her life most recently in the 2017 Netflix special “Amy Schumer Growing.” Similar to that, “Expecting Amy” blends documentary footage of Schumer going on tour, filming the aforementioned stand-up for Netflix, struggling with a difficult pregnancy, as well as her husband’s autism diagnosis. It’s a tall order of life events, yet so much of it ends up feeling...

Is Amy Schumer America's "cool older sister"? After watching the comedian's appearance on today's Daily Pop, fans will have to answer with a resounding yes. While promoting her new HBO Max docu-series, Expecting Amy, Amy gave E!'s own Justin Sylvester an update on her family, which includes husband Chris Fischer and their 1-year-old son Gene. "We're really good," Amy exclusively told Justin. Although Justin couldn't be happier for Amy, he joked that her marriage had him carrying "the torch that you left behind—because Trainwreck 2 needed to happen." Thus, he couldn't help but ask if the now wife and mother missed her single...
