http://www.vulture.com/2017/08/schumer-asked-netflix-to-match-offers-to-chappelle-and-rock.html
When buying comedy specials, Netflix has developed a habit of throwing ridiculously large sums of money at big-name comedians in order to draw them to the service. Some of those sums, however, are markedly smaller for different comedians. Variety reports that, while Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle were given $20 million per special as part of their deals with Netflix (Rock is making two for $40 million; Chappelle, three for $60 million), Amy Schumer had signed a deal for about $11 million with the service for The Leather Special last year. According to a source who spoke to Variety, Schumer then went back and negotiated for “significantly more compensation,” pointing out how much Netflix had offered to Rock and Chappelle. Standing up for yourself pays, and so does doing business with a streaming service. Yeah, cause she's that big of a draw nowadays. --- R.I.P. GameFAQs Throwback Mode ... Copied to Clipboard!

I actually think both her old material and sketch show are funny, but the leather special was awful. And yeah, obviously comparing her to Rock and Chapelle is ridiculous.

So if chapelle and rock negotiated for more, she would also negotiate for more, even though she's not 1/10 of funny as they are or draws as many people?

Chappelle coming to Netflix was like the second coming of Jesus so I understand why he got paid so much. Chris Rock is funny, but I don't think 40m is appropriate and I certainly don't think Amy deserves anything more than a million for her act.

I have several thoughts about this:
1. Good for her. She negotiated a deal and got a better offer, fair play 2. She doesn't deserve as much as they got because she's a much shittier comedian 3. She got away with this because gender wage gaps is a hot topic and you can bet she would have made it one if she refused, and Netflix don't want that kind of PR --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg ...

So? The amount of money she makes doesn't mean she's on the same level of people who make that much money...if Netflix wants to give it to her then who cares? Would you not try to get more money or would you say "Man..I'm not as good as Chappelle yet, I'll settle for less when i know i can get more"...She sucks, I agree....terribly unfunny...But I don't see why trying to get more money from people willing to give it to her is worthy of mocking her..
