However, she decided against it and released a statement on Variety that it was due to "scheduling conflicts."Fans were in discourse after learning about the story:ProudKentuckyGirl*@Jillybean_502@JoeyMannarinoUS Delusions of Grandeur16@JoeyMannarinoUS Delusions of GrandeurAmy Schumer said no to Barbie due to creative differencesAmy Schumer at the Watch What Happens Live interview with Andy Cohen.
