Amy Schumer Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Amy Schumer has made headlines in the past few days after revealing on social media that she underwent back surgery—a laminectomy—to address chronic pain stemming from a long-standing surfing injury. She proudly posted a photo on Instagram standing with a walker in her signature irreverent style, joking about looking forward to buying a bra once she’s recovered. According to AOL, Schumer said, “Since my surfing injury back in the day my L5 has been killing me… Today I got a laminectomy! It’s a short recovery and when I’m feeling better I will buy a bra!” Her recovery has generated an outpouring of support from fellow celebrities including Debra Messing, Kathy Hilton, Bethenny Frankel, Elle King, and Helena Christensen, all wishing her a speedy return to health.
In addition to her health update, Schumer has been candid about her ongoing weight loss journey. Earlier this year and continuing into the present, she spoke out about switching from Ozempic, which previously made her so nauseous she “couldn’t lift her head off the pillow,” to Mounjaro—a newer weight loss drug—reporting much better results. Fans have noticed she's appeared noticeably slimmer in recent social media photos, including a recent boating trip she shared on Instagram. AOL reports that Schumer attributes her recent changes to both the medication and hormones, and she’s been forthright with followers, even going so far as to offer guidance to friends in healthcare about her experience.
On the business and entertainment front, Schumer remains one of the most successful stand-up comedians, with Comedyville recently ranking her among the richest female comics of 2025. Her confessional comedy style and mainstream popularity, including hits like Inside Amy Schumer, Netflix specials, and roles in films and books, ensure she stays relevant and influential.
No major public appearances have been reported in the past 24 hours due to her recent surgery and focus on recovery. There’s been no indication of any new film or TV projects announced during this period, though she continues to be associated with Hulu’s Life & Beth and maintains an active presence online. Notably, her knack for sharing personal updates seems to keep fans and fellow celebrities engaged with her every move.
Recently, some social media controversy still trails her—particularly regarding her support of Israel and sensitive content she posted during the Israel-Hamas conflict—though these stories appear to have faded from immediate headlines, with Schumer focusing on health and personal recovery for now.
