Tiffany Haddish Channels African Elegance On The New Cover Of Byrdie Magazine
Fans fell even harder for Haddish earlier this year after she checked a red-carpet reporter who dared to refer to her custom gown as “a little costume change”. The actress was not amused. The word “little” in front of a noun can be very triggering in the Black community and is often viewed as a slight, she explains. It’s tantamount to a white southern woman saying, but bless her heart, after delivering a blistering insult.
Dealing with condescending press comes with the territory, she concedes, and she usually lets snide comments slide, but that night, she’d had enough and chose to politely eviscerate said reporter. “It’s called an evening gown, darling,” she stated, before adding, “This is not an act. This is my life. This is what fame look like. This is what success look like. This is what money look like.” Naturally, the exchange went viral.
The viral star actress sat down with Byrdie Magazine for an interview about what motivates her and keeps her going in the first paced entertainment industry.
