Amy Schumer is undoubtedly one of the most highly sought after comediennes today. Needless to say, her stance with regard body image issues as well as feminism have been commended by a lot of her fans and followers - even turning her into a role model for the women of today. In her recent interview for the August issue of Glamour Magazine, Schumer once again proved that the ladies now have a representative who will speak out for their rights and against discrimination.

In her typical straightforward manner of addressing issues, Schumer tackled head on one of the issues that affect women today: weight. Pointing out she has no qualms admitting that she has cellulites and a belly, the comedienne slams the body image requirements set by Hollywood today. Illustrating her point by using examples, she said, "Everywhere we turn we're told we're supposed to look this certain way. Sometimes I don't know the difference between J.Lo or Beyonce or Kim Kardashian, if I look quickly!" She added, "I have looked at myself in the mirror and thought, 'This is how you look. Embrace that and move on.'" She then shared, "I have a belly and I have cellulite. And I still deserve love."

Parting a piece of advice to her fans and followers, Schumer said that people should not be extremely conscious of the way they look. She disclosed, "Appearance has so little to do with where we should get our confidence from."

While Schumer has always been known as someone who refuses to take back the things she already said, the comedienne showed in her recent social media posts that she nevertheless knows when to apologize. With racism issues still rampant in society today, one of the actress' jokes appeared to have offended the Latino community, according The Hollywood Reporter. "I used to date Hispanic guys, but now I prefer consensual," Schumer joked in one of her stand-up acts. Unsurprisingly, this ignited a frenzied debate among her fans as well as gave her critics the opportunity to attack her brand of comedy.

"Put down your torches before reading this so you don't catch on fire," Schumer posted on Twitter, referring to the critics attacking her following her joke about former Latino lovers. "I enjoy playing the girl who time to time says the dumbest thing possible and playing with race is a thing we are not supposed to do, which is what makes it so fun for comics," she wrote. Schumer added, "You can call it a "blind spot for racism" or "lazy" but you are wrong. It is a joke and it is funny. I know that because people laugh at it."

When asked by a Twitter fan on her "value system" as a storyteller in an effort to "understand" the actress' way of thinking, Schumer first expressed her gratitude to the user. She posted, "Thank you so much for asking." She then added, "I wrote this [Latino] joke 2 years ago. I used to do a lot of dumb jokes like this." She further recalled, "I used to play a dumb white girl character on stage. I still do sometimes."

However, Schumer pointed out that she decided to improve her material the moment she figured that a lot of people are starting to look up to her. She wrote, "Once I realized I had more eyes and ears on me and had an influence I stopped telling jokes like that onstage, I am evolving as any artist." Schumer added, "I am taking responsibility and I hope I haven't hurt anyone. And I apologize if I did."
