AceShowbiz - Tiffany Haddish made light of her recent run-in with the law. Just hours after she got busted for driving under the influence, the "Girls Trip" actress poked fun at her arrest at a comedy show.
For the record, the 43-year-old was scheduled to perform at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood on Thursday, November 23 for its 43rd consecutive annual free Thanksgiving feast. She, however, was later arrested after police found her asleep in her car outside the venue.
Tiffany then returned to the location to perform once again and address the arrest. "What happened last night?" she asked the crowd in an audio clip obtained by TMZ, before recalling her exchange with cops. The comedienne later left the comedy club Friday night with producer Jeff Beacher.
Tiffany was collared early on Friday morning in Beverly Hills, California. "We responded to a call of a vehicle on the roadway at 5.45 this morning," a watch commander for the Beverly Hills Police Department told Page Six. He also noted officers were told the driver was "asleep behind the wheel."
Sources additionally told the outlet that Tiffany's car was "stopped in lanes of traffic" and not pulled over to the side. It means any vehicles that were driving in the area at that time would have had to go around her car.
According to a video obtained by TMZ, Tiffany appeared cooperative when police put her in handcuffs and walked her to the back of their vehicle. She was seen wearing a floral red and white blouse, black leggings and black sneakers.
This is not Tiffany's first DUI case. Back in January 2022, she was arrested for a DUI and improper stopping on a roadway after she appeared to be dozing behind the wheel.
