Amy Schumer gave her fans a hint of what kind of raunchy jokes they can expect ahead of her hosting duties at the Academy Awards in her new interview with The Hollywood Reporter.The 40-year-old Trainwreck star admitted that she was leaning on the kind of shocking adult humor that she launched her career with, though her lawyer had to ask her to tone down some of the jokes.'I emailed my lawyer about two jokes the other day, and he was like, "No!"' she admitted.

Still at it: Amy Schumer, 40, delved into her the risqué material she's crafting for her Oscars hosting gig and opened up about her dwindling audiences in Wednesday Hollywood Reporter profileAlthough Amy seemed to think her material was up to snuff, it didn't initially go off well when she tried out some ideas with Oscars producers via Zoom about a month ago and they just responded with silence.'I was like, "Can you guys hear me?"' she recalled, though she found it funny in hindsight.

The standup comic considers herself a connoisseur of 'p***y jokes,' though she admitted her longtime fans weren't likely to hear any on ABC when the iconic awards show is broadcast on Sunday, March 27.She recounted the start of one graphic nominee-themed joke that might have launched her introductory set: 'My husband is going down on me, or as he calls it, Squid Game.
