Amy Schumer is not happy with the folks over at Glamour. The comedian took to Instagram today to call out the magazine for including her in their special plus-size issue that is a collaboration with Lane Bryant.
"I think there's nothing wrong with being plus size," Schumer captioned a picture of the special magazine's cover. "Beautiful healthy women. Plus size is considered size 16 in America. I go between a size 6 and an 8. @glamourmag put me in their plus size only issue without asking or letting me know and it doesn't feel right to me."
"Young girls seeing my body type thinking that is plus size?" she continued. "What are your thoughts? Mine are not cool glamour not glamourous."
Glamour included Schumer in the "Women Who Inspire Us" section of the issue along with Melissa McCarthy, Adele and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Ashley Graham.
"First off, we love Amy, and our readers do too - which is why we featured her on the cover of Glamour last year," a spokesperson for Glamour said. "The cover line on this special edition - which is aimed at women size 12 and up - simply says 'Women Who Inspire Us,' since we believe her passionate and vocal message of body positivity IS inspiring, as is the message of the many other women, of all sizes, featured. The edition did not describe her as plus-size. We are sorry if we offended her in any way."
In June 2015, Schumer was presented with Glamour's Woman of the Year award where she opened up about her size during her acceptance speech.
"I'm probably like 160 lbs. right now, and I can catch a d--k whenever I want. It's not a problem. It's not a problem," she said. "I'm not going to apologize for who I am and I'm going to actually love the skin that I'm in. I'm not gonna be striving for some other version of myself."
Schumer has said in the past that she struggled with her weight her entire life before she met her stylist Leesa Evans.
"Leesa had given me this gift of showing me how to dress and feel good. She didn't have to do this, but she just did," Schumer said. "She shopped for my sister also. And seeing my little sister [Kim Caramele] wearing a little blazer and a shirt and looking just like a strong, beautiful woman, I realized that holding myself back was also holding her back."
