Amy Schumer shuts down fat shamers with swimsuit pic

By Tribute on May 25, 2016 | 11 Comments


Amy Schumer at the 2016 Met Gala Bow down, fat shamers — because Amy Schumer is having none of it.

The Trainwreck star took to Instagram on Tuesday to post a bathing suit-clad photo of herself alongside a strongly worded message to all of those “trolls” who’ve left mean comments on her social media.

“I meant to write ‘good morning trolls!’ I hope you find some joy in your lives today in a human interaction and not just in writing unkind things to a stranger you’ve never met who triggers something in you that makes you feel powerless and alone,” the actress captioned the pic.

“This is how I look. I feel happy. I think I look strong and healthy,” she continued. “Also like miss trunchbull from Matilda,” referencing the headmistress in the 1996 children’s flick. “Kisses!”

The comedian has never been one to shy away from talking about body issues and sexuality — remember her famous line at the Glamour UK Awards earlier this year?

“I’m probably like 160 pounds and I can catch a d*ck whenever I want.”

We believe it, Amy. Yes, you can. ~Shelby Morton

    She looks amazing. Good for her!

    I am glad to see her owning this after the Glamour Magazine debacle. In that she claimed she went between a 6 and 8, and realistically, at 160 lbs, there is just no way. She looks great as she is , and should never have to apologize or deny being a healthy looking woman.

    As a young man growing up I was always attracted to the curvy girls which now they name plus size the ones I met and eventually married are proud of who they are and dress very tasteful so Amy right on you flaunt you to Megan trainer I love girls with cushion

    You see “curvy” men having to defend their bodies…

    She’s a comedian. It’s sad that because she’s a woman people think that her appearance should be above all else. She looks great, there’s not a thing wrong with her. The problem is that we obsess too much over the physical appearance of celebrities, especially women.

    She’s GORGEOUS!!!
    I love you Amy Schumer.

    Amy Schumer is ugly, and wouldn’t, “catch my d*ck.”
