Amy Schumer won\'t participate in any Super Bowl commercials in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick.

\"I personally told my reps I wouldn\'t do a Super Bowl commercial this year,\" Schumer wrote. \"I know it must sound like a privilege ass sacrifice but it\'s all I got.\"

Schumer also addressed a report that Rihanna turned down an offer to be this season\'s Super Bowl halftime performer. Schumer added that \"I think it would be cool if [Maroon 5] backed out\" as well.

Schumer appeared with Seth Rogen in a political-themed campaign for Bud Light, \"Raise One to Right Now,\" during Super Bowl 50.

Now THIS is an issue I can get behind Kaepernick on. The Less of Amy Schumer the better.

Wow. No idea Amy Schumer was so dumb. Funny that someone who campaigns for free speech in her profession wont support someone elses free speech. Hypocrite.

Millions of Americans thank her for keeping herself off their tv screens.

Oh no! I'm sure she turned down billions. Now SOME people are saying that she said that only after she'd found out that nobody contacted her agent about anything - apart from offering her a box of donuts for her NOT to appear anywhere near Super Bowl. But I'm sure that's fake news. She is well liked and respected ... at whatever she's doing.

I informed my reps that i'm available for as many commercials they can put me in.

So far no calls.

Do people actually believe this is about disrespecting the flag still ?

You sound dumb, supporting the right to free speech and supporting the speech that anyone says are two very different things. And opting to not be a part of a super bow commercial translates into her not supporting free speech how?

Right back atcha.
Why exactly would you take a stand to NOT support Kaepernick ?
