Amy Schumer implied she was stepping away from her active career for a 'month' break as she shared an Instagram snap with her son Gene on Thursday morning.

The 40-year-old comedian wrapped her arms around her two-year-old little one in the peaceful photo, and wrote: 'Out of office reply for the next month. Thanks.'

Her latest post follows a social media share on Wednesday morning where she admitted she was 'still triggered and traumatized' by the 'disturbing' moment when Will Smith stormed onto the stage and slapped Chris Rock during Sunday night's 94th annual Academy Awards ceremony.

Amy followed up her restful post with another snap of the pair shared to her stories, and wrote 'OOO next month' across the shot.

Smith, 53, sent shockwaves around the world when he slapped Rock, 57, after the comedian made a bald head joke about Will's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, who has spoken about losing her hair due to alopecia.

I get traumatized every time I see her face or hear about her.

She sort of reminds me of Chuck Schumer. Both are very traumatizing figures.

The yuck factor is through the roof with them.

TPI NOT WWP

Imagine someone like Bette Davis or Dinah Shore or Betty Grable or Ginger Rogers or other actresses of that time doing something like that in the midst of World War II because they were traumatized? They did things like USO tours and served soldiers at the Hollywood Canteen.

“...Amy Schumer alludes to taking a ‘month’ break...
“”

When I first read it I thought it said ‘mouth’ break.

Oh well. Too bad 😕

What's the REAL reason why you're laying low for a while, Amy?

Amy Schumer Turns Oscars Monologue Into A Roast With Incest Jokes and Leonardo DiCaprio Burns

By Liz Kocan @lizburrito Mar 27, 2022 at 9:05pm

When Oscars co-host Amy Schumer took the stage for her solo monologue at tonight’s ceremony, she was full of self-deprecation, starting out by saying, “I’m Amy Schumer, or as they know me in Hollywood, ‘Melissa McCarthy said no.'” But she didn’t just tell jokes at her own expense. Schumer was then given the floor on her own to discuss the evening’s nominees, and spared no feelings in a hilarious monologue where she called out the nominated actors, directors, and films.

As she scanned the room, she pointed out the evening’s attendees and congratulating them for their work. “During a raging pandemic, you made a movie, give yourselves a hand, that’s incredible, you did it!” she told those in the audience. “And yet…they weren’t all great. A lot of them were pretty hard to understand, you know who you are, I didn’t see many… any of of them. I didn’t see them. I have a toddler so I just watched Encanto 190 times.” (Same, girl.)

“Inspirational, isn’t it? After years of Hollywood ignoring womens’ stories, we finally got a movie about the incredible Williams’ sisters’…dad,” she deadpanned, before rolling into a joke about the night’s hottest couples. “Will, Jada, what a beautiful couple. We’re honoring a lot of couples here tonight, actually. Jada and Will Smith. Penelope and Javier Bardem. Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal. A night for lovers!” Schumer joked as the camera held on the Gyllenhaal… siblings.

Schumer saved some of her best jokes for Adam McKay’s Don’t Look Up, saying, “Don’t Look Up is nominated. I guess the Academy members don’t look up… reviews.” (McKay seemed fully on-board with the jokes at his film’s expense as the camera panned to him.) Mentioning the film’s star Leonardo DiCaprio, she said, “Leonardo DiCaprio, what can I even say about him? He’s done so much to fight climate change and leave behind a cleaner greener planet… For his girlfriends.” (It was a solid joke, but seems not to actually be that original, unfortunately.)

Schumer also took a swing at Aaron Sorkin’s Being The Ricardos, the Nicole Kidman-Javier Bardem film about Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. “Aaron Sorkin: a genius! Truly, right? I mean, the innovation to make a movie about Lucille Ball without even a moment that’s funny? Not your fault, Nicole,” Schumer said to Kidman, who was laughing in the audience. make it funny…” she started, adding, “If you’re Aaron Sorkin, how do you make a movie about the most iconic female comedian, not one laugh. It’s brilliant! It’s like making a biopic about Michael Jordan and just showing the bus trips between games.”

Next time, maybe Sorkin can call Amy to punch up his scripts.

Boo hoo. Send her to Ukraine.

Hope she doesn’t roll over and flatten him.

Jim Carrey has now announced his retirement. Unclear whether it is because of the behind the scenes problems with speaking out and bashing all those people giving Smith a standing ovation or because he is getting bashed for forcing a kiss on a 19 year old actress at an award ceremony. He also tried to kiss Will Smith

She’s a comedian?

[Whatever Works]

“Get back up there, fellas, and keep slapping until she retires.”

LOL!!! Post of the day!

[liberalh8ter]

She should be traumatized over her family tree.

[Sans-Culotte]

The jokes in her monologue are all the classic sorts of put-downs one hears at events like this. Some of hers were much snarkier than Chris Rock’s joke about Jada’s hair.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I’d call her a drama queen, but she’s not a man so she’s not a legitimate woman.

[Chad C. Mulligan]

Drama Queen. Playing it for the headlines.

[Leep]

That’s not that unusual..or shouldn’t be
But taking pictures,of what is a private occasion, and showing it to the general public feels a little weird.

[daku]

Now her kid owes will smith a slap

[Carpe Cerevisi]

I wish Norm MacDonald were still alive to give us his thoughts on Amy Schumer’s latest attention-seeking stunt. He was so good at bashing her.

[Gaffer]

What a low-rent, fat back, nasty trash-ass skank. Nasty, filthy ‘jokes and skits’ and bragged about her abortions and THEN she finds some guy to knock her up and she’s Mother Teresa all-of-a-sudden. Cousin of Chuck-you Schumer.... nuff said.
