Amy Schumer wore the hat of the host for the Oscars 2022, along with two of her companions, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall. The comedian, ever since the event and the slap-involving fiasco, did not make a public appearance until her latest stand-up show where she opened up about everything that went into holding the Academy Awards 2022. In her set that she performed at a packed house at Mirage Theatre in Las Vegas on April 2, Amy, apart from talking about the Will Smith-Chris Rock altercation, also mentioned that she was advised, and subsequently not allowed to say a few jokes that she brought to the stage under her sleeves, on TV.

“I do not even know what to say about the Oscars. I have no jokes about it. I was kind of feeling myself…and then all of a sudden, Ali was making his way up, Schumer said, referring to the time Smith played the character of the famed boxer in the movie Ali, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. She added, “All I can say is that it was really sad, and I think it says so much about toxic masculinity.”
