Tiffany Haddish has big plans for her new age, and her fans are excited about what is coming!
Nearly two weeks after she was found sleeping at the wheel of a car and arrested, the comedian and actress celebrated her birthday. To commemorate the milestone, Haddish took to social media to outline some of her upcoming projects to her 7.5 million followers, and they were all over the update with enthusiasm.
Tiffany Haddish Rings In Her New Age With Major Plans To Release Another Book
When Haddish turned 44 on Sunday, she uploaded a clip of her performing one of her comedy songs onstage with a band. The "Night School" actress donned a shimmery pink and black dress with a sheer cape.
She added dainty diamond earrings, a bracelet, and some rings to her look, finishing off with a black headband with a shiny front and a pink feather-like attachment at the side.
The comedian's short blond hair was styled into multiple waves that complemented her subtle makeup. In the caption, the observational comedian began:
"Happy Birthday to me!!!!! I am ready for my next chapter in life. I have more music and Another Book coming and I can't wait to share with the world all of the work I have been doing for My Family and All my Real Unicorns."
Haddish continued with an appreciation for "the band that helped me put that show together especially @dimondsareforever my musical director and @andydrachman for filming it and making it look beautiful," and "the beautiful woman in Eritrea that made my dress."

After noting that she could not remember the dressmaker's name, the "Tuca & Bertie" executive producer wrapped up, "I told you I would wear it and the world would see. I keep my promises. Anyone who knows me knows that. It might take some time, but I always keep my promise. Just ask God."
Despite limiting the comments on the post, the celebrant's fans still managed to drop nearly 4,000 messages, with one writing, "I truly think you are a fantastic entertainer. So smart and talented. We love you and want you around for a very long time. Stay strong and take care of yourself as you only deserve the best!!"
"Yaaaaaaaaas Cousin! You look amazing, and you sound amazing!!!! I love everything about this and YOU! Happy Birthday, Beautiful One!" a second Instagram user gushed, as a third chimed, "Elelelele Elelelele Elelelele, Happy birthday, beautiful."
A fourth person commented, "Happy Birthday, young Queen! May God continue to bless you with many more years," a fifth typed, "You do keep your promises, and we love you for that. You're so authentic and amazing. Happy birthday, Tiffany," and a sixth emphasized:
"THERE SHE IS!!! HAPPY M'F BIRTHDAY TO THE HOTTEST CHICK IN THE GAME. LET'S GO."
Others simply shared their excitement that Haddish was seemingly doing better after her second arrest for driving under the influence and thanked her for her efforts to do better.
In case you missed it, "The Last Black Unicorn" author had previously acknowledged her actions, expressing a commitment to seeking "help for balance and boundaries." She then affirmed that such incidents would not recur and asserted that her Tesla had autonomously parked while she fell asleep at the wheel.
Nonetheless, authorities had noticed her blocking a section of the street, leading to the "Like a Boss" performer being handcuffed by Beverly Hills police officers at approximately 5:45 am on Thanksgiving morning.
The Grammy Awards Recipient Set To Appear In Court For DUI Charge
Still, on her DUI count, The Blast reported that within a day of being in police custody, the "Keanu" actress had performed at Long Beach's Laugh Factory, where she responded to an audience query about the prior night.
Per the article, the Primetime Emmy Awards winner skillfully turned the situation into humor without explicitly addressing the alleged DUI. In a one-minute audio clip, the 44-year-old joked about the incident, playfully referencing her prayers for a man in uniform being answered.
The excuse resonated with the audience, resulting in hearty laughter as she recounted having thoughts like "Don't bend over" during the incident. She departed her Long Beach performance in an SUV, portraying a demeanor opposite to her earlier events that day.
Haddish has been charged with DUI and improper stopping on the roadway, with legal documents indicating that her court appearance is scheduled for December 4.
