When news broke about the much-controversial scandal surrounding Maroon 5 lead vocalist Adam Levine, fans of the band and the singer were stupefied. With people quickly resorting to making memes about it, some Hollywood celebrities, too, have taken their turns to poke fun at the fiasco. One such famed personality is none other than stand-up comedian Amy Schumer.
Making an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the comedian, who has also acted in several endeavors, was asked to shed light on what’s up with her life nowadays. Schumer was quick to make a witty comment that reaped laughter from the crowd. The dig made at Levine adds up to the meme culture that has followed suit after the controversy made headlines.
Amy Schumer Has Been Kicking It With Adam Levine
On the show, Amy Schumer was introduced as the first guest of the night with Jimmy Kimmel terming her as “one of the funniest people in all five boroughs and beyond.” The comedian who was there to promote her upcoming tour – dubbed the Wh*re Tour – was asked for a life update by the show host. To this, she replied the following:
“What have I been up to… I’ve been, mostly, just kicking it with Adam Levine.”
The response seemed to have amused the audience who erupted into laughter. Kimmel, equally entertained, rhetorically questioned, “Have you?”
The show host further pressed on, asking humorously whether Schumer’s husband is okay with that revelation. The comedian bluntly said:
“Oh my god, he totally respects my choices and… yeah, no, we have a good s*x life.”
Needless to say, this is not the first time Adam Levine has been made fun of after Instagram model Sumner Stroh revealed that she had a long affair with the singer. Bizarre text messages also revealed how the rhythm guitarist was planning to name his third child after the model. The whole situation was quite obscure, to begin with.
The Adam Levine Situation
The 23-year-old model/influencer’s shocking revelation came mere days after Levine’s wife Behati Prinsloo disclosed her pregnancy on Instagram. Stroh alleged that after having ended things with the vocalist, he came back to her life with a peculiar request after several months. Through Instagram DMs, Levine had asked:
“Ok, serious question. I’m having another baby and if it’s a boy I really wanna name it Sumner. You ok with that? DEAD serious.”
These messages were confirmed by Stroh’s representative, who provided validated proof through a screen recording. The singer, through a statement, denied the claims of an affair. He did, however, state that he “crossed the line during a regrettable period” of his life.
Furthermore, Levine expressed that his flirtatious interactions with the Instagram model, at times, “became inappropriate.” While Prinsloo has not made an official statement as of yet, the Maroon 5 star claimed that he’s trying to better things with his family, as they’re all he cares about in the world.
While the entire debacle has taken an amusing turn, with some of Levine’s texts to Stroh being turned into reaction memes, celebrities like Adam Devine also made jokes about the incident. Taking to Instagram, the Pitch Perfect alum cleared up some hilarious misconceptions. Posting a picture of himself and his wife, Chloe Bridges, the actor said, “Just want to post this and say that my wife… and I are doing great.” Devine then went on to state, “I am not Adam Levine.”

Making a comical dig at the scenario, the actor concluded by saying that he’s indeed planning to name their future child Sumner.
As people continue to ridicule the lead singer for the entire situation, it would be interesting to witness the step taken by Behati Prinsloo moving forward. According to various insider sources and reports, the couple wants to make their marriage work, but Prinsloo is understandably “upset” at the singer’s inappropriate actions.
It is yet to be seen whether the Namibian model breaks her silence and makes a public response to the allegations made by Sumner Stroh.
