AMY Schumer’s risqué, nude “Star Wars”-inspired GQ shoot has upset fans and the makers of the famous films, who did not approve the sexy shoot.
In a galaxy not so far away Schumer posed naked with R2-D2 and C-3PO.
The breakout comedian stripped down and channelled her inner Princess Leia for a new “Star Wars”-inspired GQ shoot.
One of the more risqué — but still hilarious — photos of the 34-year-old shows her posing nude in bed between the famous “Star Wars” robots. Schumer’s long blond hair is in pigtails and strategically placed over her breasts. C-3PO casually holds a blow torch while all three of them smoke cigarettes.

Other photos in the shoot include a fully dressed Schumer in the back of a cab with Chewbacca and C-3PO, and one in which she’s seductively placed a light saber in her mouth.
Lucasfilm and Disney made their opinion clear on Twitter, when they posted a reply to a Star Wars fan who described the photo shoot to be “poor taste”.

Schumer — known for her dirty humour — has been a major activist against body shaming over the past year.
“For women, we’re taught to eat less until we disappear. And trained to believe that if you don’t look like everyone else, then you’re unlovable, ”she told Glamour magazine. “And men are not trained that way. Men can look like whatever and still date a supermodel.”
She added, “I’m proud of what I said [“I’m probably like 160 pounds right now, and I can catch a d — k whenever I want”]. I think it’s good to see somebody saying: I have a belly. And I have cellulite. And I still deserve love. And to catch the old D. And to not apologise.”
Schumer is currently doing rounds of interviews to promote her new movie “Trainwreck,” which hits theatres on July 17 and co-stars Bill Hader and LeBron James.
