Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact

Hilaria Baldwin is defending herself after she and her husband, Alec Baldwin, were the butt of a lengthy bit about marriage in Amy Schumer‘s latest Netflix special, Emergency Contact.

The yoga instructor and mom-of-seven — who Schumer called a “sociopath” in her special — hit back in a recent interview with Romper, telling the outlet, “It is a ridiculous thing to be cruel to another person.”

Her comment comes after Schumer said Hilaria and Alec are a prime example of how marriage is just finding someone who can stand you. Her bit in Emergency Contact begins, “Do you guys know who Hilaria Baldwin is?,” before she apologizes to the audience, saying, “I’m saying it wrong. I’m sorry,” then putting on a Spanish accent in a nod to Hilaria’s debunked heritage and continuing, “Hilaria Baldwin. I just can’t wrap my head around this story.”

Schumer tells the crowd she personally met Hilaria at Saturday Night Live, where she claimed that she was “‘from España,’ [with] a very thick Spanish accent.”

Referring to Hilaria and Alec, she continues, “They have a von Trapp amount of children, and they named them all — I’m not sure, but very Spanish names like Jamón, Croqueta and Flamenco — and all of this would be fine and beautiful, except that ‘Hilaria from España’ is actually Hillary from Boston.”

“So, I’m not trying to bully a sociopath. I have a point, OK?” she says, then adds, “My point is that all evidence points to this woman, since she met her husband, has straight up pretended to be from Spain. And her husband shot someone,” referring to Baldwin’s Rust set tragedy, in which a gun he was holding went off, shooting and killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

Schumer adds, “My point is that neither of them give a f–k.”

The comedian previously took aim at Hilaria over the holidays in 2020, using a photo of the fitness instructor posing with one of her children in lingerie and joking it was a picture of herself and her son, Gene. Schumer later apologized to Hilaria on Instagram after she complained about trolls body-shaming her.

Hilaria replied, “Girl, don’t even apologize! You always make me laugh,” per Page Six. “My only intentions were to address some of the the not so namaste behavior some people went running wild with after. You don’t need to take responsibility for their actions.”

Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact is now streaming on Netflix.
