Tiffany Haddish praised the luxurious conditions inside the Beverly Hills jail while discussing her Thanksgiving arrest Wednesday on Jimmy Kimmel Live on ABC.
The 44-year-old comedian, while wearing a beautiful green dress with slits in the front, told Jimmy, 56, about going to jail in November 2023 after being arrested for a DUI investigation.
‘I’m going to tell you right now, if I ever commit a crime, if I decide to commit one, I will only do it in Beverly Hills. “I’m sorry, Beverly Hills, I have to tell you,” Tiffany said.
‘Why?’ Jimmy asked.
“The most beautiful police station I’ve ever been to in my life?” said Tiffany, who was also arrested in January 2022 in Peachtree City, Georgia, on a DUI charge.
Tiffany Haddish praised the luxurious conditions inside the Beverly Hills jail while discussing her Thanksgiving arrest Wednesday on Jimmy Kimmel Live on ABC.
‘Really?’ Jimmy said, laughing.
‘Honey, I’ve been to jail many times. I’ve been to jail many times in my youth, okay? In my youth. It’s always horrible, always horrible. In Beverly Hills? Honey, they put me in my cell and I was like, “Oh, this is nice!” Look at this! ”Tiffany said.
‘It’s clean, the bathroom is all clean. Sink water, sparkling water. Come now. Have you been to that jail?’ Tiffany said.
“Not yet,” Jimmy replied.
‘Okay, you have to go. I’m telling you. It’s nice, it’s nice in there. The police are very respectful. They had a call button there. That’s how you know it’s really fancy. You know they are receiving funding. They fund the police there because I don’t know what the toilet paper was made of. I think of organic rice paper. Because as soon as the moisture hits, it just disintegrates,” Tiffany said.
Tiffany said she suffers from endometriosis and used the call button to ask for help because she needed a sanitary pad.
He joked about the big, comfortable pad they brought here.
‘This thing went from the top of my belly button to my bra strap. Very comfortable. So fluffy. Jimmy, this is the worst part. She was wearing a thong, so she looked like a pillow and a rope. “It was really funny,” Tiffany said.

‘It’s clean, the bathroom is all clean. Sink water, sparkling water. Come now. Have you been to that jail?’ Tiffany said.
The Girls Trip star grimaced while telling the hilarious story on the ABC talk show.
Tiffany shows up last month in Hollywood at the premiere of Bad Boys: Ride Or Die.
Tiffany previously explained how she got up early at 5 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day, exercised, picked vegetables from her garden, and then served food to the homeless at The Laugh Factory.
“Then I left there, went back to my house, took the pot of collard greens, grabbed two turkeys and took them to my aunt’s house, my family’s house. And I was there with them, ducking and dodging, trying not to give too much money,” Tiffany said.
“Then I got a call from one of my rich friends, he told me they didn’t have food because they ended up firing the chef or whatever and I saw this as an opportunity to get into another movie,” Tiffany said.
Tiffany admitted she should have taken her home and said she had a drink and was “really sleepy.”
“And I have a Tesla, and a Tesla drives itself,” Tiffany said smiling as Jimmy laughed.
‘The way the Tesla is set up, if you start to get sleepy or have your eyes closed too long, or your head sways, or you’re not moving or something like that, it will stop and park the car. In such a way to get you help because he thinks you could have had a seizure, you could have died or something,’ Tiffany said.
“So it saved my life,” he added.
‘Is that true?’ Jimmy asked.
“I’m not sure if that’s true, but from what I read and from my court case, it’s true,” said Tiffany, who added that she “lost .03” when her blood alcohol level was measured.
In February, Tiffany accepted a plea deal for reckless driving and pleaded no contest to the traffic violation.
Your Georgia DUI case is still ongoing.
‘The way the Tesla is set up, if you start to get sleepy or have your eyes closed too long, or your head sways, or you’re not moving or something like that, it will stop and park the car. So he can get you help because he thinks you could have had a seizure, you could have died or something,” Tiffany said.
Tiffany during her appearance also talked about her successful campaign to land a role in Bad Boys 4 after attending the Bad Boys 3 premiere.
The Girls Trip star also promoted her new pop song Woman Up, written by legendary songwriter Diane Warren, 67.
‘I wanted to bring joy to people. I want people, when they hear it, to say, “I can relate to that.” Even if it’s a woman or a man, whatever it is, people can relate to it and it inspires them to be happy, to have some joy and to move forward. Because, the last two years for me, it’s been very difficult dealing with the pain, dealing with the police, whatever,” Tiffany said.
Tiffany also introduced her new book of essays I Curse You With Joy and urged the audience to read it.
