This repellent Manatee had previously forced Netflix to disable their rating system because her last special sucked so bad. A bold move.

Amy Schumer knows how much she’s worth.

According to a new report by Variety, the 36-year-old comedian renegotiated her Netflix special salary once she learned what Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle were paid for their respective stand-up specials.

While the two were paid $20 million for their routines, Variety claims Schumer had been paid $11 million for her “The Leather Special” taping. Schumer was reportedly able to raise her payment significantly after going back to the streaming channel and asking for more. The March special was taped after Schumer’s rise in popularity, thanks in part to an Emmy win for Inside Amy Schumer and success with her first starring role in the film Trainwreck.

How about this, since a comedians job is to make people laugh count the number of laughs she gets and pay X $ per laugh. If she gets as many laughs as CR/ DC then she will earn as much. But If she earns less then that's because she's a shitty Comedian, but what women aren't? It will also dispell that pay gap fallacy.

She isn't doing another special with Netflix. They gave her more money for the one special because they're afraid of white feminism.

Amy Schumer has done for comedy
what Chuck Schumer has done for comedy.

Speaking of plow horses......
You know why A. Schumer is smarter than a horse?
Because she doesn't take a dump in the middle of the street during a parade.

If I had FU money I would pay her an extraordinary number to retire forever.
The world would rejoice and erect a monument of me for ANTIFA to tear down.

Very few female comedians are. The vast majority of female comedians shtick is usually limited to jokes about their period, or jokes about their boyfriend and how "stupid" he is, or jokes about how they get bitchy and want to eat everything when menstruating. Maybe other females find this stuff funny, I don't know. But even my wife agrees very few female stand-up comedians are funny.

Or just let a comedian's ability to sell tickets (or pay-per-view subscriptions) be the gauge of whether people find him/her funny or not. Those that are funny will fill seats, those who don't will quickly find themselves working as writers for SNL.
