Amy Schumer Calls Out ‘Bachelor’ Host Chris Harrison: ‘There Is Nothing Wrong With Complicated Women’

"Bachelor" super-fan Amy Schumer had a bone to pick with host Chris Harrison during Monday night's episode, "The Bachelor: Women Tell All." The comedian took to Twitter to call out Harrison for his character characterization of contestant Jubilee Sharpe as "complicated."

The "Bachelor" host referred to Sharpe's "complicated" past (her entire family has died) during his conversation with the contestant who was eliminated in week five. She believed that her past didn't necessarily interfere with her brief relationship Ben Higgins.

"Ben was everything that I thought he was. You know, he didn't see me and my complicated past as a huge obstacle," Sharpe told Harrison.

He responded, "I know you can't control how complicated you are," and later added, "You might be complicated, and I know you stir the pot sometimes, but I hope you realize you're a pretty special woman, and I really appreciate you coming here and opening up the way you did."

Schumer wasn't buying his compassion.

"Team jubilee for life," the 34-year-olda actress tweeted. "There is nothing wrong with 'complicated' women Chris Harrison. You treated it like something she should fight. A woman shouldn't try to... Be less complicated so as to hopefully attract a man. And she shouldn't find value in herself just because a dude liked her. Come on bro... She is smart and strong and a sergeant in the military. She lost her entire family and you say she must fight off being complicated."

Harrison responded to Schumer later on Twitter. He wrote that he's willing to discuss her talking points, especially over a glass of wine.

"I'm 82% sure I said and supported all these points as well," he tweeted. "I'll bring the wine!"

"I'm down to talk about it if you are," she responded and added, "love you boo boo but had to make the correction for any brainwashed gals thinking hey need to be uncomplicated to be lovable [sic]."

Higgins' choice comes down to Joelle "JoJo" Fletcher and Lauren Bushnell in the season 20 finale of "The Bachelor," airing next Monday, March 14 at 8 p.m. on ABC. "The Bachelor: After the Final Rose" will follow at 10 p.m.
