Tiffany Haddish has made a promise to her fans following her latest performance.

The 39-year-old actress and comedian performed a sold-out show at the James L. Knight Center in Miami to ring in the New Year on Monday night, Dec. 31, 2018.

During the performance, it was reported that she forgot several jokes and many others fell flat, causing fans to walk out of the comedy gig. After confirming reports of the flopped show, Haddish made her announcement to fans.

The comedian insisted that would be the last time anybody witnesses a bad show of hers.

Responding to an online article about her performance, she tweeted: “Yes this happened. I wish it was better Miami. I prayed on it and I have a strong feeling this will never happen again.”

According to a video published by TMZ, the Night School star acknowledged onstage that her forgetfulness was “weird” for her but brushed the criticism off because she knows she can’t have the “best day” every day.

Speaking onstage, she said: “This is weird for me. Now, this is going to be on TMZ or whatever. Every day ain’t the best day, but we do what we do. It is what it is.

“This will probably be the only time you will ever see me like this because I’m never doing this again … I will never allow myself to be this woe the f— out.”

Earlier in the day, she had taken to Instagram to promote the show, while also explaining she had partied into the morning the night before.

She said in a video: “Went to bed at 7. Ciroc is still in my system.”

But despite the fan backlash, some fellow celebrities publicly spoke out in support of the star.

Questlove tweeted: “Failure is a part of growth and lessons get learned. The crowd will speak on this night forever so they had an experience, and you are the wiser. Not end of the world. You’ll shine more in 2019.”

Love Life Organization Shows Love

As part of Love Life Week, the Love Life Foundation was honored to produce the 1974-75 World Champion Golden State Warrior Day. It’s a shame that our first Bay Area World Championship team’s unique accolades had been lost in the pre social media era and the cultural revolution of the 1970s.

As part of Love Life Week, the Love Life Foundation was honored to produce the 1974-75 World Champion Golden State Warrior Day.

It’s a shame that our first Bay Area World Championship team’s unique accolades had been lost in the pre social media era and the cultural revolution of the 1970s.

The 1975 NBA World Championship team were invited back to the City of Oakland last Friday, to be properly celebrated for their ground-breaking performance in 1975.

The heartwarming ceremony highlighted the recent passing of the legendary coach of that team, Al Attlles, and his former players Clifford Ray and Charles Dudley were on hand to represent the “Cardiac Kids” as they were called back then for their ability to make great comeback victories during their run for the title.

Warriors great Chris Mullin and former spiritual advisor Gary Reeves gave heartfelt testimonies of their experiences under Attles’ leadership and their relationship with the inspiration they received from the NBA 1975 World Champion Golden State Warriors.

The City of Oakland provided proclamations to all parties with speeches made by city leadership including Mayor Sheng Thao and Deputy Mayor Dr. Kimberly Mayfield and activity host Love Life non-profit founder and Executive Director Donald E. Lacy Jr..
