Tiffany Haddish charged after DUI arrest in Los Angeles: report

Tiffany Haddish has reportedly been charged following her DUI arrest in Los Angeles last month.

The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office confirmed to multiple media outlets on Wednesday, December 13, that after reviewing Haddish’s case, it has been charged with two misdemeanors: driving under the influence of alcohol and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08%. She said her arraignment is scheduled for December 22 Entertainment tonight. TMZ was the first to break the news.

We weekly has reached out to Haddish’s team for comment.

Last month, Us confirmed that Haddish was cited by Beverly Hills, California police officers. She was handcuffed and escorted to the back of their vehicle. At the time, TMZ reported that law enforcement received a call about a person apparently sleeping behind the wheel of his car while it was still driving. Authorities arrested Haddish at the scene.

Before her arrest, Haddish performed at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood for a special Thanksgiving stand-up set just hours earlier. The venue had hosted its 43rd annual free party for residents. After the show, Haddish celebrated and shared images of herself dancing Yachtley crew‘s concert.

Tiffany Haddish has been a comedic force since landing her breakout role in Girls Trip, but she’s also faced some challenges throughout her career. Haddish portrayed the sex-positive character Dina, who went on an outing with a circle of friends played by Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith and Regina Hall in the 2017 film. […]

‘What’s going on? Now I’m in Inglewood [and I’m] I’m trying to go to the Habesha party,” she said in the November clip. ‘I’m trying to put on my East African. You know, I partied with the white people. Now I try to party with my East Africans, but they won’t let me into the club. They don’t let the hot dish in.”

This wasn’t the first time Haddish was arrested for driving under the influence. Haddish got into a similar incident last year. Us confirmed in January 2022 that the actress was arrested for drunken driving and improper stopping in a roadway after Atlanta police responded to a call of someone asleep at the wheel. She was booked and released hours later after posting $1,666 bail.

Shortly after news of her second arrest broke, Haddish took the stage again for a set in Long Beach, California, but dodged the audience’s questions about her arrest.

“I prayed to God to send me a man with a job, a career, preferably in uniform,” she told the audience. “God has answered my prayers.”

A few days later, she broke her silence about the incident.

“I’m going to get help so I can learn balance and boundaries,” she told Entertainment Tonight at the time, adding that “this will never happen again.” She also noted that she has been in “good spirits” since her arrest.
