Tiffany Haddish Talks Refusing To Have Sex In Exchange For Fame: It’s A Lot Of Men Out Here Mad At Me Right Now
Comedienne Tiffany Haddish is never one to hold back and in true fashion, she’s telling all in a recent interview with Kenny Burns. Kenny Burns asked Tiffany Haddish about her upbringing in foster care and growing up with her mom abusing her and her siblings, Tiffany Haddish recalls,
“At 12, 13 we got put in foster care got split up my two sisters were put together, my two brothers were put together and then I was by myself for a few days. Then I moved to a foster home, then a couple of other places then finally my grandma got custody of all of us.”
She also opened up about the physical abuse she received from her mom, despite trying to make her smile:
“My momma she used to knock me out straight punch me hit me because she couldn’t use her words. Here she is from a woman who owns 2 properties, owns her own business, was the manager at the US Post Office has a very extensive vernacular and now she had to learn how to walk talk eat everything that she taught me at that point I’m teaching her. And the frustration of that she couldn’t think of the words so she would just hit. And so I thought maybe if I did a dance for her then maybe she wont punch me in my nose today.”

Tiffany then alluded to notable male celebs being upset with her for not opening her legs or dating them to get into the comedy game. She says,
“A whole lot of not giving up no p***y so that you get held back. It’s a lot of men out here mad at me right now. Its a lot of dudes that used to tell me unless you f**k me you not gonna get here unless you my girl it’s me that’s gonna walk you through the door. And I’m like no it’s God walking me in the door. You don’t walk me in no door.”

Tiffany later said she could have been a drug addict if things went a different way.
“Imma tell you right now had I done what I could’ve done to get where I’m at right now I probably wouldn’t be here. I probably would be a full strung out drug addict because my integrity would be damaged. Knowing the truth about how I got where I’m at it would hurt so bad like if I had got this kind of fame or success in my twenties, it would’ve been some shenanigans.”
When Kenny Burns asks if there’s going to be a sequel for the 2017 hit Girls Trip, Tiffany responded,
“I’m pushing for a part 2 I’m pushing for it and so are all the other girls. We all are pushing to try to make something happen.”
She later opened up about being called “ghetto.”
“Tiffany set the black community back 100 years, she’s so ghetto”, meanwhile I’m buying businesses, I want a black grocery store. I am sick and tired of going to everyone else’s grocery store.”
