We found Amy Schumer’s doppelgänger: a centuries-old sculpture of Aphrodite. OK, technically Instagram user @whitneyzombie gets the credit here for pointing out that Schumer bears an eerie resemblance to the Greek goddess who was once seen as the pinnacle of beauty. The fact that Aphrodite is also the goddess of love, pleasure, and procreation seems especially fitting for Schumer, who’s unafraid to tackle those topics.
Despite looking like a clone of Aphrodite, Schumer gets fat shamed all the time. Hopefully this side-by-side photo will be a wake-up call for how warped our perception of beauty has become.
