Amy Schumer Claims Internet Trolls Hate Her Because She’s ‘Not Thinner’ or ‘Prettier’

Amy Schumer has come up with a theory of why internet trolls are so hard on her whenever she speaks out, saying they're mad she's 'not thinner' or 'prettier.'

I think they’re mad I’m not prettier and that I still feel like I have a right to speak,” Amy, 42, explained on the Tuesday, February 20, episode of Amanda Hirsch ’s “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast. The Emmy winner’s comments come on the heels of her clapping back at online trolls who claimed her face looked “puffy and swollen” during a February 14 appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. There are some medical and hormonal things going on in my world right now but I’m OK,” Amy continued about her health and changing looks, adding, “I also believe a woman doesn’t need any excuse for her physical appearance and owes no explanation.”
