However, many commenters thought the comment was offensive and insinuated that Kidman was robotic. The joke opened up Schumer to people taking jabs at her career and appearance.

Fans who stood beside Kidman said, "It's obvious Amy Schumer has no class, and Nicole Kidman is one classy lady." While others said, Kidman was out of her "league."

The comments turned into the "I Feel Pretty" actress being compared to the "Big Little Lies" star. One internet user said Schumer was not recognized as a "successful comedian," and another said she could only "dream" of a career like Kidman's.

Schumer's joke landed more as a jealous remark toward Kindman to other commenters, but some even compared their appearances, saying the 56-year-old looked younger and more "attractive" than the comedian.

Additionally, netizens accused Schumer of cyberbullying Kidman without knowing why she had an attentive look. One commenter said the "Eyes Wide Shut" actress might have been studying the game for a project. "Shame on you, Amy," they added.

More people saw the joke of the "Trainwreck" actress as bringing down another woman instead of it being funny. "So sad, why do women enjoy berating other women?" said a commenter.
