Tiffany Haddish addresses grief and her DUI arrest on 'The Tonight Show'

Tiffany Haddish appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Monday night, and while other celebrities might have, she didn't shy away from her recent DUI arrest.

Haddish was arrested on suspicion of DUI early in the morning of January 14, after cops investigated a report of a driver asleep behind the wheel of her car on a Georgia highway.

Haddish told Fallon in the Zoom interview, "I've been praying to God to send me a new man. A good man. And God went ahead and sent me four...in uniform."

Haddish added, "And now I got a really great lawyer, and we're going to work it out. I've got to get my asking of things to God a little better!"

Tiffany explained the last few months have been rough for her, what with her break up from boyfriend Common, and the deaths of both her friend and "mentor" Bob Saget and her grandmother.

"[Saget] was like a big mentor to me, a big brother, a father figure," she explained.

"He meant a lot to me. Funny man. He was the first white man to ever tell me, 'Just be yourself, just be who you are, Tiffany. Don't worry about nothing. Just be you.' That was huge for me."

The Girls Trip star added solemnly, "And then, my grandma passed away, and she saved my life. That's my heart. She was like my soulmate. So that's been... really hard to process, all this...grief."

"My next special is going to be about grief. And it's going to be hilarious," she added, explaining that would help her, "figure out how to process it all."

"Kids get to cry whenever they want to, wherever they want to. As an adult you can't do that," Haddish joked.
