Tiffany Haddish says she doesn’t have a single job after being accused of molestation, even though the lawsuit alleging that has been dismissed.
The actress spoke to TMZ on Wednesday, September 21, at the Los Angeles International Airport.
A certain Jane Doe had claimed that Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears roped her and her brother into inappropriate sexual skits as children.
The young woman has now dropped her claim. Despite dropping the claim, Tiffany tells TMZ that she has lost everything in the wake of this.
She said she is relieved now that the saga is over but noted her main concern was the actual accuser, as well as her brother.
Recall that Tiffany and Aries were accused of including the girl and her brother in filmed sketches when they were kids, In one of the sketches, Tiffany allegedly had the girl imitate fellatio on a sandwich and in another, her brother was allegedly the subject of a pedophile’s fantasy, played by Aries.
Tiffany denied it at first, calling it a shakedown, but she later expressed regret for her role.
Tiffany Haddish, in full Tiffany Sarac Haddish, (born December 3, 1979, Los Angeles, California, U.S.), American comedian who was known for her unflinching candour and disarming authenticity. She shot to stardom with her no-holds-barred performance as Dina in the raunchy comedy Girls Trip (2017).
Haddish’s father, who was Eritrean, left the family when she was still a toddler. After her mother suffered brain damage in a car accident, Haddish spent several years in foster care before going to live with her grandmother as a teenager. Her penchant for making her classmates laugh led her social worker to point her toward the Laugh Factory Comedy Camp, a free summer program offered by the comedy club chain Laugh Factory to teach underprivileged children how to perform stand-up comedy. The camp proved to be a transformative experience for Haddish.
After graduating from high school, Haddish focused on forging a career in comedy, using her life as source material. Although she made headway, she earned so little money that at times she was forced to live in her car. Her first big break came in 2006 when she was a contestant on the television comedy competition show Who’s Got Jokes? Two years later she appeared on Def Comedy Jam and the reality-show spoof Reality Bites Back. During this time, Haddish began to be cast in a number of sitcoms, and she also acted in such films as the comedies Meet the Spartans (2008) and The Janky Promoters (2009), which was written by and starred rapper and actor Ice Cube.
