Schumer has discussed her health choices openly in recent years. She previously explained that she had struggled with Wegovy, another name for Ozempic, three years ago. The actress said the side effects left her sick.
She also shared that it left her “bedridden” with nausea, before sharing how her experience with Mounjaro, another weight loss drug, had been very different.

“My symptoms of being in perimenopause have disappeared. My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy,” she explained.
Her health journey extended beyond medication. In August, she underwent spinal surgery after years of back pain caused by a surfing injury. She even posted a photo with a walker, joking, “It’s a short recovery and when I’m feeling better I will buy a bra!” Her recent Las Vegas trip, therefore, marked both a recovery milestone and a confidence boost.

Almost as soon as she posted the Las Vegas photo, Instagram users highlighted one feature: her legs. Television personality Margaret Josephs commented, “Ok legs for days!!🔥❤️” Isla Fisher added, “Those legs ❤️❤️❤️,” while Selma Blair simply wrote, “Leggggggs.” Meanwhile, Kathy Griffin teased, “I’m so pissed about your legs, I can barely talk to you. 😍”
Comedian Pete Burdette wrote, “Look amazing, Amy! 😮😍” and skincare pro Georgia Louise demanded, “AMY.. legs need to come out more!!!! ❤️”
Other friends joined the chorus. Amy Sedaris praised her, writing, “You look incredible. Look at those pins!!! #miumiu Classy!!” Similarly, Bell and Saks shared emojis celebrating their friend.
