19 Times Amy Schumer Dropped Some Serious Honesty Bombs

Impact

You can always rely on comedian Amy Schumer to tell the truth, whether it makes you laugh or cringe. In an homage written for the Time 100, actress Tilda Swinton composed this little ditty about her equally funny and insightful pal:

"Amy's got your back. She's in your corner. She's an honesty bomb. And she's coming for you."

From her hit Comedy Central show Inside Amy Schumer, the season premiere of which blew audiences away, to her hilarious turn hosting the 2015 MTV Movie Awards to making Laverne Cox squeal with glee ("YES, AMY! WERK! WERRRRK!") upon falling in mock reverence in front of Kimye last week during the Time 100 gala, Schumer has spent her entire career dropping honesty bombs left and right. 

Schumer derives comedy from her experience of living as a woman in a male-dominated world. If female comedians are leading the feminist movement in 2015, Schumer is at the front of the pack.
