Tiffany Haddish Gets Real About Why She’s Now Celibate: ‘I Only Got So Much Soul Left’
HuffPost
The “Girls Trip” actor added that she’s been sober for six months following her second DUI arrest.
Tiffany Haddish recently shared that she’s celibate. Her reasoning is simple: She’s “the prize,” and any potential partner will need to “qualify” because she doesn’t want to give her body to just anybody.
The “Girls Trip” star was cited for driving under the influence in November for the second time in two years and, as she revealed during Monday’s episode of “On Purpose With Jay Shetty” podcast, has been sober ever since and decided to refrain from sex as well.
“I just don’t want to lay down with nobody, just anybody, you know?” Haddish told Shetty. “I just feel like, dang, I am the prize, and these dudes gotta qualify. And when I think about my track record of who I lay down with, it takes like a year or so for me to even warm up.”
She cheekily added, “I mean, I love going to free dinners. I go on free dinner dates.”
When Shetty recalled being celibate for years while living as a monk and told Haddish, “It was hard,” she couldn’t help but quip, “I bet it was hard.” While she’s kept a sense of humor through her recent legal troubles, Haddish said celibacy has been “easy.”
