AceShowbiz - Morgan Freeman made his feelings be known when Tiffany Haddish took a picture with him at the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center in Washington on Sunday night, October 26. The actor wasn't too pleased when the comedienne approached him for a selfie, but she ignored it.
In a picture shared on her Instagram page, the Lucius Fox of Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" trilogy gave Tiffany a side-eye while the "Girls Trip" star nonchalantly smiled to the camera and held her phone. The 39-year-old noticed this and addressed the awkward moment in the caption.
"I ran up on @morganfreeman and he check the Hell out of me and I didn't care," she wrote below the photo. "Cause like I told him 'I am Tiffany MotherF**king Haddish and I take pictures all the time ShE Ready' " She added, "love you #morganfreeman #marktwainprize."
Tiffany's followers couldn't help poking fun at her, with Damon Wayans Jr. asking in the comment section, "What'd he say to you after you snapped It? Something mean but soothing?" Arsenio Hall sarcastically wrote, "Nice‼"
Jay Pharoah jokingly commented, "This n***a tryna smash." Actor and comedian Joe Torry chimed in, "LOL.. I KNOW HE DID," adding the hashtag, "#GrownFolksDon'tPlay". Bresha Webb added, "His face is not havin it!!! Omg thank you for this."
Dave Chappelle was the recipient of the 2019 Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at the Kennedy Center on Sunday night. He was honored for his fearless commentary on American culture. Bradley Cooper, Erykah Badu and Michael Che were also among the stars who saluted the comedian.
In his acceptance speech, Dave vowed to fight for every comic's right to talk about what's on their minds. "This is the truth and you are obstructing it. I'm not talking about the content. I'm talking about the art form. Do you understand?" he said. "The First Amendment is first for a reason. The Second is just in case the first one doesn't work out." He added, "I love my art form. It saved my life."
