Amy Schumer: Attending the Met Gala 'Felt Like a Punishment'
Amy Schumer wears her hair in a side braid while arriving for an interview with Howard Stern on Tuesday morning (August 23) in New York City.
The 35-year-old comedian and actress opened up about attending the Met Gala back in May and why she thought it “felt like a punishment” to be there.
“It’s people doing an impression of having a conversation … I don’t like the farce,” she said about going to fancy parties. “We’re dressed up like a bunch of f�”king a�”holes.”
“I left, not the second I could. I left earlier than I should have been allowed,” Amy said. “I got to meet Beyonce, and she was like, ‘Is this your first Met Gala?’ and I was like, ‘It’s my last.’ I mean, I think I should be grateful that I was invited or something, but it felt like a punishment. It’s not me and I don’t like it.”
