Tiffany Haddish announces new Netflix special

The comedian/actress has just cut a deal with Netflix to produce a new comedy special.

What is peculiar about his new deal, however, is that the special is not simply to promote herself, but to promote other upcoming comedians.

The series titled, Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready, will introduce a group of six up and coming comedians, all handpicked by Tiffany. They will be doing half-hour specials on the show.

“I am introducing six of my favourite comedians–in my eyes, they are superstars,” Tiffany says. “They are the epitome of ‘They Ready.’”

All six comedians were personally chosen by Haddish. She shares a history with each after working together on the stand-up scene or on television.

Comedians include Chaunté Wayans, April Macie, Tracey Ashley, Aida Rodriguez, Flame Monroe, and Marlo Williams. Haddish serves as executive producer for She Ready Productions alongside Wanda Sykes and Page Hurwitz. Sykes’ and Hurwitz’s Push It Productions will produce.
