Tiffany Haddish spoke out about her arrest on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” when Fallon asked if she wanted to address the incident. “I can say this, Jimmy… I’ve been praying to God to send me a new man. A good man,” she began. “And God went ahead and sent me four… in uniform.” Without much explaining, Haddish continued her joke by assuring the situation was being handled. “And now I got a really great lawyer, and we’re going to work it out. I’ve got to get my asking of things to God a little better!”
Haddish is definitely one to turn her lemons into lemonade. For example, Haddish made the most of a New Year’s Eve set she bombed in 2018 by inviting audiences onstage to drink with her as a last ditch effort, per The Root. “Yes this happened,” Haddish tweeted, owning the career miss.
Over the years, Haddish has made a real effort to be positive. ”People who focus on the negative all the time? You don’t bounce back from nothin’, because your focus is on the bad stuff,” she explained to WedMD. “There’s no resilience in negativity; it’s just more pain. If I focus on positive thoughts and attitudes, then it’s least likely I’ll fail.”
