Amy Schumer may be the next ' Bachelorette ' but with conditions

Amy Schumer, American stand-up comedian, will become the new bachelorette if ABC Entertainment will agree to the three conditions given by the comedian, according to E! Online.

The same article from E! Online mentioned that these conditions were given when Maria Menounous, E! News Reporter, asked Schumer about considering in appearing on the ABC produced show. According to Schumer, these are the three conditions: First, a lot of money. Second is being real in the show. Lastly, the casting process would have to be different.

"The casting process would have to be different," Schumer said about the show's "weird" job descriptions for contestants. "It's like, 'former investment banker'?! They're like, 'flower enthusiast'? You're like, 'But what do you do? How come you could leave your life?' I love when it's like, 'I have five kids at home but I just came here to follow my heart.' It's like maybe go take care of your kids? I would keep it very real. And I don't know if it's good for that show," she mentioned regarding the third condition.

The "Trainwreck" actress added, "They would have to say, 'We will let you be yourself.' I would say what was really up."

A report from Variety mentioned that Robert Mills, senior VP of alternative series, specials and late night programming for ABC Entertainment, tweeted an offer to Schumer in May. He said, "OK here is the official offer to @amyschumer to become #TheBachelorette. Just say yes and we start tomorrow. #DraftAmy."

In reply to the tweet of Mills, the actress replied with a photo of her flying during rehearsals for hosting at the MTV Movie Awards, with the caption: "@Millsy11374 Here I come!! #bachelorette" , as reported by TV Guide.

An article of MTV cited a tweet of Chris Harrison saying: "Let's do this! RT @EW:@AmySchumer as #TheBachelorette? Here are her requirements: https://ow.ly/OXa86 "

Right now, Schumer is busy  with "Inside Amy Schumer" and promotions for her movie "Trainwreck" to even consider the offer from ABC.

"The Bachelorette" airs at 8 p.m. Mondays on ABC. "Trainwreck" will be in theaters on July 17, 2015.
