Katt Williams stopped by V-103’s “Frank and Wanda In The Morning” in Atlanta to promote his current comedy show/tour, and things took a left turn when the topic of Netflix came up, which turned into a conversation about Tiffany Haddish and the lack of support for black female comedians that as Williams said, “proved themselves.”
“Netflix doesn’t have an opinion about comedy. They base what they pay you off the tickets from your last tour…” In reference to Mo’Nique calling on a Netflix boycott. The conversation continued when host Wanda Smith asked Williams about Netflix specials talking about Haddish.
“Tiffany has been doing comedian since she was 16,” Williams started. “You can’t tell me your favorite Tiffany Haddish joke. Why? Because she ain’t done a tour yet. She ain’t done a special. She has not proven the ability to tell jokes, back to back for an hour. They all ready to down Mo’Nique and up somebody who has showed them Girls Trip. Did you think she wrote Girls Trip goofball?” … It’s up to you whatever you want to believe, I’m the introduction to Tiffany Haddish in the movie School Dance.”
Host Wanda Smith wanted to defend Haddish, stating that people liked her because she is “real.” Williams then questioned when “real” became marketable, continuing to say that everyone has a “ratchet” member of their family. He then said that the industry only likes her because she “wants to sleep with a white man.”
“She had a white husband for all of the 14 years she’s been doing comedy and then all of a sudden divorced him. Then said he abused her. Then wrote a book. Then said he didn’t and then now we’re at Brad Pitt,” he explains.
