They talk about the Lafayette shootings and her friendship with Jennifer Lawrence
Comedian Amy Schumer kicked off the final week of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart where she lamented the tragic shooting at a screening of her latest film, Trainwreck and talked hitting the Hamptons with Jennifer Lawrence.
Standing next the Hunger Games star in pictures, the comedian told Stewart she felt like her “coach.”
“She’s the coolest chick you’ll ever meet,” Schumer said of Lawrence. “In all the pictures we took together I look like her coach. I look like I just got finished telling her to take a knee.”
The two chatted it up about Schumer’s acting chops given that the comedian turned down an opportunity to host the Daily Show after Stewart leaves. “You’re like an actress-star,” Stewart told Schumer. Earlier on Monday, Schumer spoke at a press conference with Sen. Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat who is also her cousin, where the two called for stricter gun control laws.
” I was like legit heartbroken just to get that news,” the actress told Stewart about the shooting. “I got a call and I had a lot of missed calls so assumed there was a sex tape of me out, or something…To hear that news, it broke my heart. It was so horrible.”
