(Jewish Group) Tiffany Haddish shares her Jewish rituals: Shabbat dinners and hanging with her rabbi
Tiffany Haddish shares her Jewish rituals: Shabbat dinners and hanging out with her rabbiTiffany Haddish has been open about how she connected with her Jewish roots later in life, especially in interviews leading up to her 2019 standup special “Black Mitzvah.”
