Tiffany Haddish said attending the Oscars "felt like a dream come true" as she met Meryl Streep and got laughs onstage while presenting with Maya Rudolph. www.goodmorningamerica.com/cu...
Frederick Douglass explained this phenomenon back in 1883: "Though the colored man is no longer subject to be bought and sold, he is still surrounded by an adverse sentiment which fetters all his movements. In his downward course he meets with no resistance, but his course upward is resented and resisted at every step of his progress. If he comes in ignorance, rags, and wretchedness, he conforms to the popular belief of his character, and in that character he is welcome. But if he shall come as a gentleman, a scholar, and a statesman, he is hailed as a contradiction to the national faith concerning his race, and his coming is resented as impudence. In the one case he may provoke contempt and derision, but in the other he is an affront to pride and provokes malice.”
These are bitter and confused times. Some people just need an outlet, so they call themselves "woke" and criticize everything in sight as a psychological release. Sad.
Sam LSD, bitch everyone knows Africa is a continent... Did you not hear her say she's honoring her African ROOTS... She never specified which country she's from. Even though the dress looks Ethiopian, I wasn't sure so I went with African which is widely excepted. You know, plenty of people are not sure where in Africa they are from so it gets generalized. Chill the fuck out. And the next time you want to correct someone, make your own comment towards the video that said "African ROOTS"... Don't come on my comment telling me Africa isn't a country genius. Everyone knows that..................
Why are people bashing Tiffany for being herself?? I read in 1 post, that she is being too extra. Tiffany has been like that from day 1. Being who she is got her to where she is today. To a degree, Hollywood is not changing Tiffany. Tiffany is changing Hollywood.
Reynard, those are the people who want dim other people's destinies. It's called negativity. Some people are so affected and allergic to positive energy because all they emit is negative and wants others to be like them. Miserable people! They get angry when they see others smiling.
Tiffany is an actress not a comedian. That's why people don't like her. Same reason people don't like the Kardashian. The only reason people are jealous is coz we have to sweat for our money 🙄
And that is so wasteful. I mean you spend money on your clothes, what law is there to dictate how many times you wear it. Man, as long as it is clean and it is mine I'm wearing it as often as I want😁
She look beautiful in her traditional Eritrean gown on the red carpet, she is so funny and bring light to the world....Maya looks more and more like her mom Minnie Riperton , both ladies are beautiful souls.
@Tigray Fikir coman dude do not lay it is ERITRIAN caltural dress its name is ZURYA ok no credit to no one else also please DO NOT be racist we had enough of it ok?also don't try to envolvd in our country's affair leave us alone please. To our food you claim it as yours our cultural dress the same thing you claim as your own coman give us break.layer
Tiffany is so damned adorable! Her happiness and positivity just makes you smile. Some people are just put on earth to use their comedic gifts to spread joy and she's one of them. I think the sky is the limit for her.
Safia Shire Meryl Streep is not going to accept a role as a mother who raised Tiffany to act the way she does on and off screen. Simulating oral sex, cursing, drugging, talking about booty holes? Let's wait and see.
MariaHeardest wow is there a purpose for you going back and forth with me? Or is this the only excitement that you have in your life right now. The last time I checked I am entitled to my opinion. I have a life please go find yours and quit going back and forth with me.
I would so watch Tiffany and Meryl in a comic movie, finding out that she's adopted in the movie thinking that Meryl was her actual mom. It'll be hilarious 😂😂
That’s amazing that she’s wearing her cultural clothing, I would say either she’s got Ethiopian blood or Eritrean because that dress is a cultural only for these two beautiful countries
@Doctor DL it used to be part of Ethiopia,Eastern part of the horn of Africa, if you are a doctor you should know. Ethiopia is where humans came from. Eritrea is on the north border because they are independent now. both countries have the same cultural background, even the dress is traditional more Ethiopian than Eritrean. It's good to see African cultures being introduced in the Hollywood, where they do nothing but steal other's cultures.
They were great i love both dresses especially the africian one keep paying homeage to ur roots and keep it that way alot of stars become big and forgetting where they come from keep God with u because living the good life can be crazy too especially around some ppl who are wicked in there
Btube 83 hope so but she is not use in it...she is making for comedy!!!don't forget she is comedian and the most of her is possiveness. She is more pure than crystal.
What is your definition of "ratchet"??? This is her character,and she was in it! As much as we get insulted from every corner,Its really sad when your identical phenotypes (other bw) do the same. Lets celebrate and uplift this sista and every other sista (from any race) for even having talent. Being able to embrace such legends on their way to becoming one is such a fantastic sight to witness.✌😍
Wait, people were saying she was ratchet? Wow, I'm not surprised by that... But anywho, I love Tiffany because she's always herself and she has such a big and authentic personality! She is who most celebrities want to be and want to show, but cant because they conform to the unrealistic standards of how celebrities, and especially black women, are "supposed" to act in public. I wish nothing but the best for Tiffany Haddish and will always support her!
DivineAce yes...on twitter and especially in these comments. I guess,everyone is entitled to their opinions,thank Goodness it isn't a fact,because sis is WINNING!!!!!!
Good for her. She has the confidence to do what she wants and speak how she wants and not change just because others think she's doing too much. Its inspiring
Hands down one of the BEST PART of the Oscars💕I wanted to see Tiffany Dancing tho🤔😆😆😂 and Mayas Humor OMG Love her! And putting them Both together I Laught like I have never😂😍
They did excellently! Maya and Tiffany were so funny and they also looked great! I like Robin's idea of a Thelma and Louise reboot with Maya and Tiffany. They really do need to do some sort of movie like that or Hangover-type movie. Just really funny with all types of craziness they could run into. I would watch it!
they are too cute. i love maya and hope to see more of her on screen. also, that four thousand dollar dress...she could wear it as a wedding dress, too~even for the third time
Tiffany you are amazing and I love the fact that you're a celebrity and definitely understand of being on budget and using Groupon. You understand the struggles that people face everyday. I know lots of celebrities that won't even wear the same outfit after wearing it once. You are a great role model....I would wear that dress too at several occasions! God bless you😜❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘Love you! Love A FAN!
