Amy Schumer accused of ‘cyberbullying’ Nicole Kidman with now-deleted US Open post
Amy Schumer is taking back her teasing.
The comedian deleted an Instagram photo of Nicole Kidman at the US Open after being accused of “cyberbullying” the “Big Little Lies” actress.
On Monday, Schumer, 42, sparked backlash when she shared a snap of Kidman watching the sporting event from the stands in a pink outfit.
“This how human sit,” she captioned the social media upload, implying the 56-year-old actress looked robotic.
Kidman wore a serious expression in the shot, one hand under her chin while her other arm cradled her elbow.
Before Schumer deleted the photo, Instagram users slammed her “mean” caption and accused her of “mean girl public trolling.”
“Are you cyberbullying Oscar and Emmy winner Nicole Kidman right now,” one follower asked.
Another added, “Bringing others down is always a sign of our own internal insecurities anyway, so the critics here should hold a mirror.”
The “I Feel Pretty” star subsequently deleted the post amid backlash.
Page Six has reached out to Schumer and Kidman’s reps. Both have yet to comment.
After the Oscar winner watched Coco Gauff compete against Aryna Sabalenka on Saturday, she congratulated the 19-year-old on her win via Instagram Stories.
