AceShowbiz - Tiffany Haddish didn't seem to think her recent DUI arrest as a big deal. The "Girls Trip" actress poked fun at the run-in with the law during her appearance in the Monday night, January 25 episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon".
Host Jimmy Fallon first praised Tiffany for still coming to his show despite what she'd been going through in her personal life, including her split from Common and the incident. He told the comedienne that she could cancel her appearance on the show if she didn't feel like to address the matter.
While Tiffany didn't go into specifics, she was about to make light of both her arrest and breakup. "I can say this, Jimmy. I've been praying to God to send me a new man. A good man," she joked. "And God went ahead and sent me four - in uniform. I wasn't expecting it. I was not expecting that at all."
She went on to say, "Now I got a really great lawyer, and we're going to work it out." She also appeared to remain in positive mind as she added, "I've got to get my asking of things to God a little better!"
In the episode, Tiffany also talked about the passing of her grandmother as well as actor Bob Saget. "I mean, one of our mutual friends, Bob Saget, who was like a big mentor to me, a big brother, father figure, he meant a lot to me," she said of the late star.
"He was the first white man to ever tell me, 'Just be yourself. Just be who you are, Tiffany. Don't worry about nothing. Just be you,' " Tiffany continued. "That was huge for me." And after her grandmother, whom she called her soulmate, died, Tiffany admitted, "It's been hard to process all this, you know, grief."
Tiffany was arrested for DUI in Georgia on Friday, January 14. According to police report, she was pulled over by Peachtree City PD officers around 2:30 A.M. after someone reported about a driver who fell asleep at the wheel on Highway74.
It was also reported that she had smoked marijuana. She was let go from jail around 4 hours later after posting a $1,666 bond.
