Amy Schumer has taken to Instagram to clear up some controversy about her salary. A story was published in the last week claiming that she asked Netlfix for more money after comparing her salary to those of a couple male comics.
“Amy Schumer couldn’t have been hotter as a personality when she set a deal last year to star in a comedy special for Netflix, ‘The Leather Special,’ which premiered in March. But when Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle made headlines for commanding eye-popping deals for $20 million per special, Schumer’s team went back to Netflix and flatly asked for more money.”
Amy responded via social media, saying that “I believe women deserve equal pay. However I don’t believe I deserve equal pay to Chris and Dave.”
