Amy Schumer Goes After Alec Baldwin’s Wife Over “Fake” Spanish Accent

I'm not a big fan of Amy Schumer's work. Personally, I find her humor to be crude and lacking originality. However, I must admit that her recent commentary on Hilaria Baldwin's controversy surrounding her Spanish heritage is somewhat amusing.

In Schumer's latest Netflix special, she pretty much shreds Hilaria's so-called Spanish roots and also takes a couple jabs at Alec too.

"Do you guys know who Hilaria Baldwin is?" Schumer asked the audience. 

"I’m saying it wrong. I’m sorry," she said before adopting a Spanish accent and annunciating Hilaria.
Born Hillary Lynn Hayward-Thomas in Boston, Massachusetts, the former yoga teacher was accused of exaggerating her Spanish heritage after it was uncovered on social media in 2020.


Schumer remembered Hilaria having a "very thick, Spanish accent, from Spain." 

"You might have seen her on the morning show having trouble pronouncing the word, how you say, cucumber?" she said, referencing Hilaria's infamous vegetable saga where she forgot how to say the word "cucumber" on "The Today Show."

"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, you know. And all of this would be fine and beautiful, except that ‘Hilaria from España’ is actually Hillary from Boston."

Schumer added, "This woman is in no way Spanish. Her parents are not from Spain. No one in her life is from Spain. You’re going, ‘What?!’ Did you think I was just doing a really racist Spanish impression for like 15 minutes?"

Well, it's highly unlikely that Alec Baldwin and Amy Schumer will be teaming up any time soon.

But considering how bleak Baldwin's future career is looking, I'm sure there aren't too many actors in Hollywood looking to work with him any time soon.
