April 13--Add "Palatine woman" to Amy Schumer's list of impressions.
Schumer, 34, assumed a Chicago suburban accent to imitate her boyfriend Ben Hanisch's mother, who grew up in Barrington and lives in Palatine, according to online records.
"His family is so nice, they live in Illinois," Schumer told Jimmy Fallon during Tuesday's episode of "The Tonight Show."

Schumer, who went public with her relationship with Hanisch earlier this year, joked that his mother gets excited easily and she didn't know how to handle press questions about the relationship.
"She's so sweet," Schumer said.
Schumer said she and Hanisch, a Chicago furniture designer, are in love. Their relationship inspired at least one storyline in the fourth season of "Inside Amy Schumer," which is set to premiere April 21 on Comedy Central.
"The Tonight Show" airs 10:35 p.m. weeknights on NBC.
