Amy Schumer is on the mend after testing positive for Covid-19, the comedian shared via Instagram. She was forced to cancel her performance at the Netflix Is A Joke festival after confirming the diagnosis on Saturday following a successful appearance the night prior.
Schumer is currently keeping her social media followers updated on how she’s keeping busy while sick with cheeky videos. Two things she admits she’s obsessed with is the way her voice now sounds like Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes.
“All that matters to me at this point is Anna Delvey,” Schumer said in an Instagram video. “My whole world is Anna Delvey, that’s who I am now,” she added.
Schumer tested positive just days after she joked about not having had Covid while visiting Late Night With Seth Meyers. She teased, “I’m kinda smug about it. I haven’t had it yet. He’s looking out,” she quipped while pointing towards the sky.
Although fans missed out on her show last night, Schumer brought her A-game on Friday riling up crowds by sharing a raunchy joke that didn’t make the cut at the Oscars.
Alongside Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall, Schumer served as a cohost of the 94th Annual Academy Awards in late March.
Schumer’s Whore Tour kicks off on August 5th at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, New Jersey, with additional dates through the late summer and autumn before the tour wraps on November 20th at Humphreys Concerts by the Bay in San Diego.
