Who Is Amy Schumer?
14 Reasons Amy Schumer Is Straight-Up Killing It Right Now
Amy Schumer just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Although the 33-year-old has been in the comedy world for a decade, she's actually pretty new to Hollywood. Having grown up in NYC, Amy began dabbling in stand-up comedy in 2004, with bits of her material featured on Comedy Central. She eventually nabbed her own TV show, Inside Amy Schumer, which always delivers laugh-out-loud moments and eerily relatable sketches. With her MTV hosting duties under her belt, her first starring movie role in Trainwreck hitting theaters this Summer, and parts on TV shows like Girls, we have a feeling she'll have more than a few new fans before the year closes out. So whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned pro, brush up on all the reasons Amy is just plain f*ckin' awesome.
