Comedian Amy Schumer is known for her outrageous sense of humor, so the LA Times caught up with her to get her reaction to being nominated for a Golden Globe this morning for her comedy, Trainwreck. In the hilarious interview, she talks Jennifer Lawrence, "not even taking [her] Lexapro," and more.

Trainwreck, the comedy loosely based on Schumer's life (Schumer penned the screenplay and stars), is nominated for best motion picture for a comedy or musical and garnered a best actress nod for Schumer in the same category. In the interview, Schumer says she was up bright and early this morning to find out if her and her film were nominated.

But when her phone wasn't buzzing, she figured she didn't get it. Turns out she just missed her alarm. She says, "I opened my computer and went to GoldenGlobes.com. And when I realized I hadn't missed the announcements I was like, "yes!"

Schumer's gal pal Jennifer Lawrence was also nominated for her role in the film, Joy. When it's mentioned to Schumer that Lawrence will be at the awards, too, Schumer jokes, "What is this gonna do to our friendship? Our friendship will be on the rocks!"

When asked if being recognized feels special, Schumer deadpans, "Oh, totally. This is like, oh my God, you guys. So crazy nice. I'm so proud. I'm freaking out. I might not even take my Lexapro today. Maybe I can have a ... orgasm."

Schumer's show, Inside Amy Schumer, won Outstanding Variety Sketch at the Emmy's this year. When asked about that, Schumer says she "wants an EGOT," the term given to someone who wins an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award. She then jokes, "Ew, can you imagine me singing?"

She also called in to the Today show today and joked about the nominations being "more about the revenge" on ex-boyfriends.

To see if her "revenge" will be complete, tune in on January 10 when the winners of the Golden Globes are announced.
