The comedian took to the court at Madison Square Garden during halftime on Saturday to perform her infamous dance with the New York Knicks Cheerleaders from the hit 2015 comedy.

Amy Schumer still has moves, as she proved over the weekend when she reprised a scene from Trainwreck.

Ten years after the film's release in 2015, the 43-year-old actress and comedian stunned the Madison Square Garden crowd on Saturday, February 1, when the Los Angeles Lakers played the New York Knicks.


She did this by reenacting the most famous moment from her movie Trainwreck.

Schumer was invited to the floor by the Knicks City Dancers during halftime of the tense basketball game in New York City. The celebrity, who at first feigned to be stunned by the gesture, was called out of her courtside seat by the cheerleading team with the camera.

She was then brought to center court, where she performed a version of the film's iconic dance to Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl."

The dance was not quite the same, but Schumer managed the routine after all these years—including the high kicks.

Many people thought the performance was done very well.

Others were ... well, a little skeptical of this being as impromptu as it was made to seem.

Some commenters fired back at the haters.


Some fans were elated to see her recreate a scene from that far back in her back catalogue.

The Knicks can be seen playing on NBA TV, and Schumer's current film is now available for streaming on Netflix.
