"My problem is that you think Tiffany is an actress."

"I wouldn’t have wanted Issa saying all that unnecessary wild sh*t lmao. She’s not ratchet funny, she’s awkward funny. They would’ve had to rework the script for her. But I definitely would’ve loved her in it, just in a role more tailored for her."
