On stage, TV, and film, Tiffany Haddish may be used to bringing the funny but the EMMY winner recently got serious when addressing topics of racial injustice.

Taking to Carmelo Anthony‘s web series ‘What’s In Your Glass’ earlier this week (July 27), the 40-year-old detailed her activism in relation to the wave of Black Lives Matter protests that have swept the globe over the past two months.

The conversation led Haddish to break down when addressing how racism has not only made her nervous to become a mom, but also played directly into her fears about life as a parent.

“I’m a little older now and people are always asking when I’m gonna have some babies,” the comedienne stated before becoming teary-eyed.  “I would hate to give birth to someone that looks like me … knowing that they’re gonna be hunted or killed.”

That’s not all she said. Look inside to watch:

The last few years may have seen funnywoman Loni Love go from veteran comedienne to EMMY and NAACP Image-winning household name thanks to the top-rated daytime talk show, ‘The Real,’ but for decades the 49-year-old says she was being forced to be everything but real.

From her appearance to her comedic material and everything in between, Hollywood’s encouraged Love to trade authenticity for likability – an exchange she’s fought and prevailed against as she candidly reveals via a series of stories in her new memoir ‘I Tried to Change So You Don’t Have To: True Life Lessons’ (available now).

That Grape Juice caught up with the ever-hilarious Loni in early June (ahead of Amanda Seales and Tamera Mowry-Housley‘s respectively announced departures from ‘The Real’) to dish on the new book, her community activism during the pandemic, and so much more.
