Who’s That Girl?!

“Girls Trip” has been all the talk lately, but what people really want to know is who’s the wild and unapologetically funny chick who Vanity Fair is calling "The funniest person alive right now"? With hysterical lines in the film like "Lord please make sure that Lisa doesn't get an STD, and let me get pregnant by somebody rich," this wacky woman is taking Hollywood by storm!

Tiffany Haddish, A.K.A “Dina,” is one-fourth of the “Flossy Posse” in the blockbuster movie, “Girls Trip.” Her performance in the film left many wondering where she’s been hiding all these years, but this hilarious heroine has been in the industry for over a decade! A comedian at heart, Tiffany used her rough past of being homeless and responsible for her disabled mother and younger siblings at the age of 8 as inspiration to achieve her life long goals. Life's obstacles weren't enought to beat Tiffany down. Haddish pushed through the pain and spearheaded her career early by attending comedy camps with men like the Wayans, Richard Pryor, Dane Cook, etc, to whom she credits for helping her develop a confidence about her craft. Since then, Haddish has maintained a go-getter personality that landed her her most popular gigs, ‘Girls Trip’ and NBC’s “The Carmichael Show.”

“Don’t give me an opportunity, because I’m gonna snatch it,” she told IndieWire.

This quirky queen has come a long way from her humble beginnings. She now has her own production company, She Ready Productions, an upcoming role as leading lady in TBS’ new sitcom, “The Last O.G.” with Tracy Morgan, and her Showtime stand-up, “Tiffany Haddish: She Ready” will air on August 18^th. The free-spirit’s career will only soar higher from here, and according to her, the recent buzz is no accident.

“You have to know your ground, what you’re sowing. I’m planting the seeds now to make…beautiful… trees later.”
