Appearing on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show, the thespian was pretty confident that everything was going to work out just fine. Haddish even joked about the arrest as she referenced her love life just months after she broke up with rapper Common, saying she had been praying to God to send her a man.

However, she hilariously said that God decided to send four, who were all in uniform - after she was arrested early morning while speeding in her car.

Haddish's publicised arrest

As earlier reported by Briefly News, the actress had a rough weekend after being arrested for a drunk driving charge on Friday, January 14, morning. The star was reported to have been found asleep in the driver's seat of her car when police responded to a call from someone in the neighbourhood.

The world-famous comedian began her weekend with a new criminal record added to her name. She found her mug shot circulating the web after News24 reported she was taken into Fayette County Jail in Georgia when police responded to a call at 4am.

TMZ reported that police records say Haddish had been charged with driving under the influence and improper stopping on a roadway. Upon inspection, police officials have reason to believe that she had smoked marijuana. Tiffany was only held in the county jail for a few hours before being released on bail.
