Amy Schumer has revealed the joke that the Oscars would not allow her to tell when she was hosting.
In a Netflix comedy show, the 43-year-old told the joke to her audience which referenced several of the biggest movies and shows from 2022.
Schumer butted heads with Oscars chiefs on several jokes, but this one was that stood out for her.
The clip was shared to Instagram in which Schumer says: "So my husband was going down on me - or as he calls it Squid Game.
"So… he’s in my Nightmare Alley, my House of Gucci, and I say C'mon C’mon, you know?
"He goes tick, tick… BOOM! He Belfast. I say, 'Get off my Dune!'
"And that’s how our son was born."
The audience are clearly big fans of the joke and she asks: "What do you think?"
Schumer then adds: "Can you believe they said no to that? Can you even believe it?"
