Amy Schumer has issued an apology for mocking Nicole Kidman\u00a0on Instagram.<\/p>\n
The Trainwreck star, 42, sparked a huge backlash when she shared a photograph on Instagram of Big Little Lies star Nicole, 56, watching the US Open on Saturday in New York, and implied she looked like a robot by captioning the snap: ‘This how human sit.’<\/p>\n
After being accused of ‘cyberbullying’ Nicole, the comedian removed the image and said sorry \u2013 but took aim at Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis in the process.<\/p>\n
In another now-deleted Instagram post shared on Monday, Amy mocked the support letters the couple wrote in defence of their former That ’70s Show star Danny Masterson, who was convicted of rape in May.<\/p>\n
Amy said: ‘I want to apologise to all the people I hurt posting a photo of Nicole Kidman and alluding to her being an alien.<\/p>\n
‘I will be asking the cast of ‘That ’70s Show’ to write letters advocating for my forgiveness. #takingtimetoheal.’<\/p>\n

Under fire: Amy Schumer, 42, (pictured) landed in hot water this week when she made an Instagram post mocking the appearance of Australian star Nicole Kidman\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Apology: On Monday Amy posted this note, but later deleted it\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Controversial: Amy shared this picture of Nicole with the caption ‘This how human sit’ – she has since deleted it\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Amy has since deleted the apology..<\/p>\n
Her initial post sparked outrage among her fans and followers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Are you cyberbullying Oscar and\u00a0Emmy winner Nicole Kidman right now?’ wrote one follower.<\/p>\n
‘This post seems beneath you. What point are you trying to make here?’ another one commented.<\/p>\n
‘She’s most likely uncomfortable because there’s a complete stranger recording her. That’s the look of annoyance and frustration leaking through the Botox,’ a third said.<\/p>\n
Yet another wrote:\u00a0‘Wow so mean! I expected one of my favourite comediennes [sic] to have more respect for other people’s feelings than this.’<\/p>\n
Nicole also received support in her home country of Australia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, television host Natalie Barr, 55, hit out at Schumer while discussing the backlash on Sunrise, stating the comedian should not be making jokes like this as ‘things have changed’.<\/p>\n
‘It was pretty fierce. Things have changed since Amy started her joking career,’ she said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Jab: Amy’s apology referred to letters written by Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis about in support of convicted rapist Danny Masterson\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Masterson was found guilty of raping two women in the early 2000s<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, radio host\u00a0Kyle Sandilands\u00a0also blasted Schumer’s post and ‘apology’, and accused her of being a ‘troll’ on KIIS FM’s The Kyle and Jackie O show.<\/p>\n
Sandilands, 52, told his co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson on Tuesday: ‘Amy Schumer is a troll. She is joking about a person that got raped. This b**ch has got no idea.’<\/p>\n
‘I don’t know why she feels she can be an a**hole to everyone. I just don’t like her because she’s just a horrible human being. She’s nothing.’<\/p>\n
Sources close to Kidman revealed the Moulin Rouge star was not paying attention to the furor, telling DailyMail.com: ‘It’s kind of silly and she’s not fazed.’<\/p>\n
DailyMail.com has contacted Kidman’s representatives for comment.<\/p>\n
Kidman looked glamorous at the tennis over the weekend as she donned a chic suit which featured pocket detailing and three buttons.<\/p>\n
She completed her look with a tailored white jacket and cream loafers, and kept her accessories to a minimum with a simple wrist watch.<\/p>\n
Australia’s darling wore her strawberry blonde tresses in a low-maintenance side ponytail for the outing, and kept her makeup palette understated.<\/p>\n
After Gauff’s triumphant win, Kidman took to Instagram to congratulate the 19-year-old tennis player.<\/p>\n
‘Congratulations, Coco! Thank you, US Open! Great Women’s Final 2023,’ she wrote beside footage she shared to Instagram.<\/p>\n
Gauff staged a brilliant comeback to claim the US Open, beating Sabalenka to emerge a 2-6 6-3 6-2 winner.<\/p>\n
