Amy Schumer said 'people really are perverts' after learning that her Saturday Night Live sketch was by far the most popular one on the comedy show's YouTube channel.
There's an argument to be made that SNL is more about generating funny clips for YouTube these days and the more views the merrier, but one video stands head and shoulders above the rest.
Sitting pretty at 109 million views is the rather bluntly named sketch 'Porn Teacher', starring Schumer and Kyle Mooney as a teacher and student in an innuendo-laden encounter in the classroom.
The skit aired in 2015, and a decade later Schumer appeared on The Howard Stern Show to talk about it being the most popular clip.

"Can you believe that? The most viewed SNL sketch of all time is me and Kyle Mooney playing, called 'Porn Teacher'," she said reacting to the clip's enduring popularity.
"I want to bring it back for the 50th where I'm like a realtor or something. I was shocked to hear that, but then you're like 'oh, of course', everybody's a pervert."
When Stern asked the comedian who actually wrote the sketch she quipped 'some pervert', and that she 'just did it and thought nothing of it', and then it turned out to be the most popular sketch they ever did.
The next closest video is 'Black Jeopardy with Tom Hanks', which has only mustered a measly 86 million views, while the third most popular one at 79 million views is called 'Hermione Growth Spurt' about the Harry Potter character, which rather underlines Schumer's observation that 'everybody's a pervert'.
"It has more than 'Cowbell', people really are perverts," Schumer said of the comedy sketch she did years ago.
More recently in her life, Schumer announced the end of her marriage to husband Chris Fischer and said it had been an 'amicable' split.
She also said she had to lose 50lbs as a result of Cushing syndrome, which makes a person's face puff up and can ultimately be fatal.
The comedian said that she went through the weight loss 'to survive', saying she used Mounjaro and had plastic surgery as well and was now 'pain free'.
Saturday Night Live recently launched a UK version of the sketch show and it can apparently count Donald Trump among its viewers as he shared a sketch mocking Keir Starmer.
The show has also been criticised for some of their sketches in recent times, with a skit about Tourette's performed after the BAFTAs among those drawing criticism.
