Amy Schumer Reveals The Joke About Alec Baldwin’s Accidental Shot She Wasn’t Allowed To Tell At Oscars 2022

Oscars
2022
co-host
Amy
Schumer
recently
revealed
the
one
joke
that
she
wasn’t
‘allowed’
to
tell
at
the
ceremony.
While
performing
a
stand-up
set
in
Las
Vegas,
Amy
talked
about
the
drama
that
unfolded
when
Will
Smith
slapped
Chris
Rock
on
the
stage.

One
of
the
jokes
Amy
said
that
she
wasn’t
allowed
to
say
on
the
Oscars
stage,
referred
to
last
year’s
incident
on
the
sets
of
the
film
Rust
when
Alec
Baldwin
accidentally
shot
two
crew
members.
The
joke
began
with
a
reference
to
Leonardo
DiCaprio-starrer
Don’t
Look
Up.

Amy
performed
the
joke
for
her
stand-up
set
audience
and
said,
“Don’t
Look
Up
is
the
name
of
a
movie?
More
like
don’t
look
down
the
barrel
of
Alec
Baldwin’s
shotgun.” Talking
about
Will
Smith’s
infamous
slap
she
added,
“I
wasn’t
allowed
to
say
any
of
that,
but
you
can
just
come
up
and
(slap)
someone.”

Will
Smith
Resigns
From
The
Academy;
Here’s
What
It
Means

For
the
unversed,
on
October
21,
2021,
cinematographer
Halyna
Hutchins
died
after
being
shot
on
the
sets
of
Rust.
The
incident
occurred
as
a
live
round
was
fired
by
a
prop
gun
being
handled
by
lead
actor
Alec
Baldwin.

Talking
about
the
slap
incident,
Amy
added,
“I
was
kind
of
feeling
myself.
And
then
all
of
a
sudden,
Ali
(referring
to
Will
Smith,
who
played
boxer
Muhammed
Ali
in
a
2001
biopic)
was
making
his
way
up
and
it
was
just
a
f***ing
bummer.
All
I
can
say
is
that
it
was
really
sad,
and
I
think
it
says
so
much
about
toxic
masculinity.
It
was
really
upsetting.”

Notably,
Amy
along
with
her
Oscar
co-hosts
Regina
Hall
and
Wanda
Sykes
had
the
audience
cracking
up
for
most
of
the
night.
They
dressed
up
as
their
favourite
movies
and
Amy
swung
in
in
a
Spider-Man
costume.
During
audience
interaction,
Amy
also
called
Kristen
Dunst
a
“seat-filler”
and
the
trio
ended
the
almost
four-hour
long
ceremony
wearing
pyjamas.
