Amy Schumer Doesn't Need Your Permission To Decline A Selfie

Amy Schumer announced on Instagram that she will no longer be taking photos with fans after a man demanded that she stop and pose for a picture.



While visiting Greenville, South Carolina, a fan "scared the shit" out of her when he abruptly approached the comedian, she wrote. Schumer declined the request but he persisted, allegedly telling her "it's America and we paid for you" in front of his daughter.



On Saturday, she shared a photo of the man on social media, identifying him as the reason why snagging a Schumer selfie might be more difficult in the future.

Only an hour before the encounter, Schumer shared a clip from her performance in the city on Friday night, singing the praises of the South. "Greenville makes you feel like mmmmmmm," the caption reads.

Although she was clearly shaken by the incident, it looks like Schumer's day turned around. She followed up the post with photos of herself laughing with friends and enjoying the perks of country life. Apparently, she's also gotten over her fear of horses





We gon be alright!

Lexington, Kentucky, is Schumer's next stop on her tour. Let's hope her visit to BFF Jennifer Lawrence's home state goes a bit more smoothly.



We reached out to Schumer's representatives and will update the post accordingly.
