Virtue Instead Of Embarrassment

[Blind Gossip] Sometimes celebrities pretend to do something for one reason when they are actually doing it for another.

This funny actress recently canceled a performance. She said that she did not feel right performing at a venue in a place where the local laws did not support her personal belief system.

The truth may be a little different.

Tickets weren’t selling. She didn’t want to play a half-empty venue, so it was better just to use this as an excuse to cancel. Now everybody is like, “Good for you!” when she was really just cancelling to keep herself from getting embarrassed by a lot of empty seats!

[Optional] Smart move on her part?

    If this is Tiffany Haddish I can see why.. why did David Letterman have her on ‘My Next Guest..’ on Netflix? And that ridiiiculous intro he gave her, you could tell when he finally revealed her to the audience that was there it was total disappointment even from the few who knew who she was :/

    Whatever the reason it was a wise move. Hit these backwards states where it hurts. Good to see so many companies pulling out of these states.

    Tiffany Haddish in Georgia.

    Shrewd on her part but not ethical. However that should surprise no one.

    Performer: Tiffany Haddish

    [Optional] Smart move on her part? Well, it does take the focus off of her not selling tickets.

    Tiffany Haddish- Atl show. Of course no one was coming to see that. She’s not funny and we all remember her New Year’s fail.

  11. SilverLining says

    Tiffany Haddish cancelled her Atlanta show due to her “disagreement with abortion laws.”

    Performer : Tiffany Haddish

    She claims she cancelled her Atlanta comedy Show Over Georgia Abortion Ban. But low tickets sales could be the real cause.

    Optional: Smart move.

    Probably not. All sorts of folks are *publicly* claiming to boycott Georgia bc of the new “Heartbeat” bill. People are catching on that this is grandstanding and they will still film/perform there bc of the tax breaks, money already invested, etc.. Disney is the biggest lying hypocrite of all. They film in countries where not only is abortion illegal, so is homosexuality. Their diversity is bought at a cost. Just get out of politics already!

      Great analysis of the situation. When these “stars” get political, they lose half of their fan base.

    Tiffany Haddish. she was boo’d off the stage last year so she should have seen the empty seats coming.

    Smart move, but I don’t think she will have many moves left, her 15 minutes should be up soon

  27. keenobserver says

    That sounds a lot like Madonna.

    Is it a smart move on her part? Well, she hasn’t made it this far because she’s stupid.

    As soon as I heard she cancelled due to “the abortion laws” I knew her show wasn’t selling.

    Tiffany Haddash. Gee, whadda surprise. Most of us really don’t even know who she is; a Real Housewife, maybe (said in all seriousness)?

    Optional: I guess. Though it sucks for her fans that aren’t supportive of the laws/those that were elected…but I guess there weren’t that many fans given this blind.

    Tiffany Haddish.
    Possibly, depends how gullible people are! Even if it was the real reason, it’s a little unfair on her fans who had actually bought tickets to see her.

  47. Honey16 says

    Tiffany Haddish

    Yes, I think it was smart on her part. Also, I would be hesitant to buy a ticket for her show. I don’t think she is that funny live & after seeing what happened at her New Year’s Eve, I would think twice.

  52. The Big D says

    Tiffany Haddish

    I don’t think it is a smart move because the lack of ticket sales is not something she can hide. Let’s face it -she is just not all that funny – she better take what she can get.

    Tiffany Haddish canceled her Georgia concert over the state’s fetal heartbeat law

  69. VegasMike says

    Tiffany Haddish – cancelled Georgia shows, presumably in opposition to recent attacks on female reproductive rights.

    [Optional] Smart move? Well, it looks good on paper. Don’t know her so won’t speculate on her motivations…

  70. zappy2050 says

    Tiffany Haddish. She started out well – then got obnoxious. Just like that politician Alexandra etc.c. whatever/AOC and Meghan Markle. When you are moved up several levels you have to calm down and take things easy. Otherwise you will wear out your welcome.

    Canceling GA dates

    Honestly her virtue signaling is getting old. Just come out! Multimillionare’s don’t have “roommates”

  73. 4sixx2 says

    Tiffany Haddish. She’s a disgusting opportunist. Perhaps it’s time for Miss Tiffany, Alyssa Milano and the rest of Hollywood to recognize that Georgia and normal America doesn’t give a * about them and their opinions!

  84. wendybar says

    Tiffany Haddish, Georgia doesn’t care if you come there or not. You are not really that important. Dummy move for typical Hollywood creeps. Kill the babies, or they won’t perform like the seals they are.

  87. pitbull says

    Tiffany Haddish cancelled her Atlanta performance due to the “abortion laws.”
    WHAT A JOKE. Only those gullible enough to believe her would want to see her anyway. Too much spin to be believed, and no one is buying it.

    • katheryn says

      I really don’t know anyone who could stand to listen to her yelling and going on for more than a few minutes. Don’t get it, she’s not funny at all.

  88. nowyoutellme says

    Tiffany Haddish. Stupid move. No one wants to see her to begin with and now she’s alienated Right to Life fans.

  92. SouthJerseyGirl says

    Tiffany Haddish. She canceled because she said she cannot “in good faith” perform in Georgia unless it withdraws the so-called heartbeat bill.

    Smart move – probably.

  93. Conservaterian says

    Tiffany Haddish just cancelled a show in Georgia to “protest” the abortion laws.

    Not a smart move. People keep throwing towns and places under the bus over politics. It is bad business long term. If you want a long term.
