Watch: Amy Schumer's TMI Moment at the 2016 Emmys

As if we needed yet another reason to adore Amy Schumer.

It's tradition for A-listers to reveal the ins and outs of their award show ensembles when walking the red carpet, but only this comedienne can take the question one extreme step further and blink not a single eyelash.

"Vivienne Westwood, Tom Ford shoes and an OB Tampon!" Schumer told E! News' Giuliana Rancic ahead of the 2016 Emmys telecast when asked what she's wearing. TMI? Perhaps. But at this point we all know nothing's off limits when it comes to Amy.

It wasn't all period talk though, with the Inside Amy Schumer star dishing on the highs and lows of attending high profile events. "The hottest people [are there] and they're posing," Schumer joked of the 2016 Met Gala. "And I'm just kind of like a gym teacher, like a softball coach. You try to do your best, but you're like, 'I'm trash from Long Island.' Everyone can see that very clearly."

The 35-year-old is up for a whopping six awards on television's biggest evening, specifically in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, Outstanding Variety Sketch Series, Outstanding Variety Special, Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series, Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special categories. 

That being said, there's a pretty good chance Schumer will go home with at least one more accolade to add to her award cabinet laundry room. Let Amy explain.

"[I keep my awards] in my laundry room because I'm friends with all comedians and they keep you really humble. Nobody wants to walk in and see your trophies. They would throw them in the trash. Yeah, they're a mean group," Amy told us.

Never change, Schumer. Never change.
