Joseph Turnage and Brandon Moore were in the midst of creating the perfect Central Park engagement photos with photographer Alisha Siegel when a voice pierced the serene moment.
“Oh my God! Are you taking engagement photos? Let me get in one!” a woman yelled.
Normally this is where we’d think “damn it New York City, way to ruin the moment,” but then the crazy lady came closer and turned out to be the good kind of crazy lady — the Amy Schumer variety.
“I thought it was a little weird, but I said yes anyways,” Siegel told People. “She took off her sunglasses, we snapped a quick pic, and right after, she says, ‘You guys know I’m like reeeeeeal famous.’ I take another look it hit me that it was Amy Schumer!”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“My face went totally blank and I said, ‘Oh my god! Amy! I love you!’ Needless to say I was pretty excited,” says Siegel, 25.
Is Amy Schumer on track to achieve Bill Murray-style awesomeness? She took a move right out of his playbook:

I’m not getting married UNLESS Amy schumer photobombs me

Just in time to promote her new movie (which looks awful). IDK what happened to Amy. Mostly Sex Stuff and the first season of her show were genuinely funny. Now that she’s gaining popularity, she isn’t really funny anymore. Weird.

Joey, we should be so lucky.

There will never be another Bill Murray. LOL

@Masc Pride: That moment when you read someone’s screen name, and you know they’re an idiot before you even read the comment.
David Cullen
Someone marry me

No idea who this “like super famous” person is.

25 and getting married? Jesus. I mean if you find the love of your life, why wait i guess.
Masc Pride
@cleverusername: Hmmm…kinda like that moment you realize someone has to be struggling with some serious inferiority issues to be offended by a screen name enough to derail a conversation over it?

Brittany Anzel App I guess our location was a little too remote for any celebrity photobombs! Darn. lol

Who wants a sweaty Cabbage Patch doll in their engagement pics? These guys do!
Rachel Dara

Brad Johnson if you and John get married, this would make it that much more perfect ð???

It must be Me,,
BUT!!!
I don’t find Amy Funny!!!

I wouldn’t mind if Amy photobombed my engagement photos. She’s funny and seems like a cool person. Bill Murray, on the other hand…he looks like an escaped mental patient in that photo. Couldn’t he have at least managed a fake smile? Seems life has been rough for him.
Glücklich
Amy! Come do woman-on-the-street down in the Financial District! Or out at JFK since I’m there all the godammed time!

@Masc Pride: You posting the same negative garbage again? What else is new?

@Masc Pride: “someone has to be struggling with some serious inferiority issues”
And this, kidz, is wot’s known as a self-awareness fail.
Caoimhin Mikael Lycke

@Matt Fritsvold: OK, hottie!

@David Cullen: David I’ll marry you. 🙂
Masc Pride
@Giancarlo85: Hey, how many accounts are you going to create to stalk me? Get a job!
@Saint Law: Which inner city school system failed you?

Oh it’s a beautiful day in the shadeborhood and a beautiful day for a shader.

I LOVE Amy Schumer! I can’t wait to see her movie… and honestly, if you don’t get her, you’re likely not terribly bright. She’s doing really sharp comedy from a woman’s perspective & she’s nailing it… all while giving zero f*cks about you. LOL
Srsly… get on board, folks.

@mick4reg: She’s made me chuckle a couple of times, but for the most part i don’t think she’s that funny either. But to each their own.
