Tiffany Haddish’s Has ‘80’s Prom, She Always Wanted, For Her She’s Ready Foundation for Foster Kids.

 By Laura Medina

 As a normal foster kid, the prom and other social school dances weren’t high priorities for foster parents checking the checks from the kids, they’re fostering.

This stuck with, while scarring Tiffany Haddish for life.

During her formative teen years and early twenties, it was the comedians at The Laugh Factory that were her real adopted family. 

They may not be neglected foster kids, like Tiffany, but they were the nerds, the dorks, the social misfits who were invited, or never welcomed at the prom.

As for some of them, Canadians like Howie Mandel, prom simply isn’t part of the culture.

So, Tiffany Haddish’s “Adult” Prom isn’t just a fundraiser for her She’s Ready Foundation.  It’s a prom for fellow foster kids, like her.  It’s prom for her fellow comedians and Canadian comedians, like Howie Mandel.

Tiffany’s prom this year was Eighties overload. Rubik Cubes all over. Grab as much childhood Eighties penny candy. A flashing and blinking Rubik Cube dance floor. The traditional roast beef, salmon, and Turkey prom buffet. They have “Someone Spiked The Punch” cocktail and mocktail bars for designated drivers.

Even Tiffany had her hair permed a la Eighties.

She shared her high school prom of her dreams, by anointing Howie Mandel, Homecoming King while she’s Homecoming Queen.

She invited Dana Dane to be the headliner.

Not only did Tiffany’s Prom raised money for decent luggage for foster kids moving from home to home, it also gives mentorships and internships and scholarships for fellow foster kids.

Let not forget, Tiffany’s Prom is also for her fellow nerd, dork, and misfit comedians friends who are now A-list comedy and movie and TV legends and icons who are now rich enough to give back while throwing themselves an awesome party.  A true Revenge of the Nerds.

What’s the best part?

Tiffany’s Adult Prom happens every year.

Alright, it’s Hollywood’s Revenge of the Nerds. They have goody gifts as a thank you for all the guests.

In each goody bag, there’s Tiffany’s latest autobiography, “I Cuss You With Joy.”

In time for Father’s Day, Tiffany quoted most girls take their daddies for granted, whereas her dad skipped out on her and mom when Tiffany was a mere kid.

There are deeper meanings and apparent gratitude at Tiffany Haddish’s yearly Adult Prom.

Do Over with thanks and giving.
