Tiffany Haddish is back with her highly anticipated new essay collection, I Curse You With Joy.
Itâs been a minute since readers last sat down with Tiffany Haddish. Since The Last Black Unicorn, Haddish has catapulted to A-List fame as the breakout star of Girls Trip. Sheâs walked the Oscars red carpet, released a hit stand-up special with Netflix, and made history as the first black female comedian to host Saturday Night Live and Shark Week.
But it hasnât been all VIP parties and free diving with apex predators. In these humorous and heartfelt essays, Tiffany gets real about the highs and lows of life. Believe it or not, there was a time when Tiffany didnât totally know who Tiffany was. Before she found her groove, she was on stage dressed like her snobby airline coworkers telling halfhearted dick jokes. She tanked.
It took a fake penis, some help from friends, and a little encouragement from Bob Saget, but eventually Tiffany figured out Tiffany. I Curse You With Joy celebrates all the lessons she learned along the wayâthe joy and the pain. Tiffany reckons with the legacy of her childhood trauma, the challenges of being a black woman in the entertainment industry, and her bittersweet reunion with her estranged father after nearly twenty years apart. And donât worry, sheâs got plenty of advice to share, too.
I Curse You With Joy is Tiffany Haddish unfiltered. (We know what youâre thinking... how much more unfiltered can she get?) These essays lay it all bare, bringing readers into Tiffanyâs inner circle where joy, honesty, humor, and heart are the order of the day.
