In her latest stand-up set, Tiffany Haddish addressed recent comments made by Katt Williams, who implied that she owed her success to Kevin Hart “opening the gate” for her in the industry. The comedian took the stage at the Comedy Store and humorously shared her experiences, shedding light on the challenges faced in navigating different comedy nights.
“At the Comedy Store, they wouldn’t let me perform at the white nights, but I performed at all the Black nights,” Haddish shared with an enthusiastic audience, injecting humor into the situation. This comes after Williams’ explosive appearance on Club Shay Shay, where he made assertions about Haddish’s rise in the comedy scene.
Taking to Instagram shortly after Williams’ interview dropped, Haddish expressed her sentiments, stating that while she’s not angry, she wishes Williams would get his facts right about her. In a playful manner, she questioned whether the person in the interview was truly Katt Williams, suggesting a resemblance to Charleston White.
Williams, known for his bombastic style, went on to make controversial remarks about actor Jonathan Majors, using him as an example to explain why he avoids relationships with white women. The comedian emphasized the perceived power dynamics and challenges Black men face in such relationships. Williams also mentioned other comedians, including Chris Tucker, Cedric the Entertainer, and Steve Harvey, in less favorable terms during the interview.
Tiffany Haddish’s response in her stand-up set showcases her resilience and ability to address controversies with humor, maintaining her unique voice in the comedy landscape. The ongoing banter between comedians adds an interesting layer to the dynamics within the industry. What are your thoughts on Tiffany Haddish’s comedic response to Katt Williams’ claims?
