Tiffany Haddish Defends Zimbabwe Video After Backlash

Tiffany Haddish

American comedian, Tiffany Haddish has defended her controversial TikTok video of her visit to a supermarket in Zimbabwe, saying it was aimed at dispelling perceptions that there was “war every day” in Africa.

Haddish faced a backlash from some Zimbabweans on social media after she posted the video of her strolling through the aisles of a supermarket chain in the capital, Harare.

“Look at this grocery store. It’s humungous, in Africa,” she says in disbelief as she scans rows of shelves with soft drinks, frozen meat, and fresh fruit.

The video has been viewed just over 200,000 times on TikTok.

“How ignorant could she be? Did she think that Africans shop from rocks? She needs to travel more and unclog her sadly colonized view of the world. Yikes,” raged one user on X.

Another person said: “They think we’re chasing lions and zebras.”

A third person said that Americans have a “misguided perception of Africa, believing that its inhabitants live in primitive conditions, residing in mud huts, lacking access to clean water, and being devoid of modern amenities like electricity and internet”.

Haddish responded to the criticism on X, formally Twitter, saying that she had been taught a false narrative about Africa.

“I am an American, a Black one at that, and told for years that people are starving in Africa, showed pictures of babies with flies on them.”

She added that she was told “crazy stories” about how Africans “kill each other” and that there is “war every day”.

But Haddish said that her trip to Zimbabwe has opened her eyes and that she has been “finding out the truth “about the continent.

“I thought I would share cause I know people in the USA that believe Africans don’t have anything,” she wrote.

While the video drew criticism, Haddish also received support.

Accordingly, some fans asked Miss Haddish for an unqualified apology to which she later came to say “I believe most of the bad things that have happened in my life are My fault.”

“I chose to be friends with people that weren’t actually my friends. They truly didn’t care about me, they wanted to use me and I let them. Shame on me for not trusting my instincts. Lessons learned,” she concluded.

Actress Planning to Fight DUI Charge in Georgia Court

Tiffany Haddish will head to a Georgia courtroom in August to fight a 2022 DUI charge.

The actor and comedian was detained on the morning of January 14, 2022, after Peachtree City Police got a call regarding a driver asleep at the wheel on a highway, Assistant Police Chief Matt Myers said in a news release. 

An officer saw a vehicle matching the caller’s description and stopped Haddish as she pulled into the yard of a residence, Myers said.

Haddish was charged with driving under the influence. She later posted a $1,666 bond and was released from the Fayette County Jail.

The trial has been delayed multiple times before it was scheduled for August 26.

Since Haddish’s Georgia arrest, the entertainer has faced another DUI charge in California. She pleaded down to a reckless driving charge and was sentenced to probation.

It was reported that Haddish and her lawyers are planning to fight the case in Georgia court, arguing that the officers did not have a reasonable suspicion to detain her.

The lawyer told the magazine that the traffic stop was illegal and believed that all evidence taken during the stop should be suppressed.

Haddish was the breakout star of the smash comedy “Girls Trip” and has starred in such movies as “The Kitchen”, “Night School” and “Like A Boss”.

She’s also written the New York Times best-seller, “The Last Black Unicorn” and hosted the popular television show “Kids Say The Darndest Things”.
