With multiple high-profile projects and buzzworthy appearances, Tiffany Haddish has quickly established herself as one of the most sought-after comedic actresses and performers. She can be seen opposite Tracy Morgan on the TBS comedy series “The Last O.G.,” which returned for a second season in April 2019. Additionally, she will appear in starring roles in the upcoming films “Limited Partners” and “The Kitchen.” Haddish will also lend her voice to the character in Universal/Illumination’s “The Secret Life of Pets 2,” along with playing the voice of the character “Tuca” in the Netflix animated series “Tuca and Bertie.” In addition, she is working on a one-hour stand up special for Netflix and has a two-year, first-look deal with HBO for projects under her “She Ready” production company banner.
Haddish is perhaps best known for her break-out role in the smash comedy “Girls Trip,” where she appeared as the scene-stealing character “Dina” alongside Jada Pinkett Smith, Queen Latifah and Regina Hall. Her additional film and television work include “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, Nobody’s Fool,” “Night School,” “The Oath,” “Uncle Drew,” “The Carmichael Show,” “Keanu,” “Meet the Spartans,” “Racing for Time,” “The Janky Promoters,” “If Loving You Is Wrong,” “Real Husbands of Hollywood” and “New Girl.” Haddish was also an early stand out during her appearances on “Def Comedy Jam,” “Who’s Got Jokes” and “Reality Bites.”
In June 2018, Haddish took the reins as the highly-anticipated host of the MTV Movie and TV Awards, a role that was met with critical acclaim and a significant ratings boost.
In addition to her acting work, Haddish continues to perform to sold-out crowds across the nation on her “She Ready” comedy tour. Her debut stand-up special, “Tiffany Haddish: She Ready! From the Hood to Hollywood,” was released on Showtime in August 2017. In November 2017, she made history by becoming the first black female stand-up comedian to host “Saturday Night Live,” a role that earned her a 2018 Emmy Award for “Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series.” Her first book, a memoir called The Last Black Unicorn, was released the following month. The book made the New York Times best-sellers list and the subsequent audiobook was nominated for a 2019 Grammy Award for “Spoken Word Album.”
Haddish’s journey and life experiences have inspired her comedy and sense of humor both on and off the stage. While growing up in foster care in South Central Los Angeles, her excessive talking and imaginary friends prompted her increasingly flustered social worker to steer her into stand-up comedy and enroll her in the Laugh Factory’s Comedy Camp, a place for at-risk and underprivileged children to transform negative energy into something positive. The experience became just the beginning of her comedy career.
