Tiffany Haddish Recalls the Times Drake and His Dad Sent Her DMs
Written by SOURCE on February 14, 2019
Tiffany Haddish says not one, but two Graham men have slid into her DMs.
The comedian/actress spoke about these separate instances during a recent sit-down with Glamour UK. She told the outlet about the time Drake had messaged her to ask if she would appear in his “Nice for What” video—a request she had hoped would lead to some kind of romance.
“You know what, Drake slid into my DMs. I saw him a few days later and he was like, ‘Yo! You didn’t respond to my DMs!’ I was like, ‘Well I don’t even know that you follow me!'” Haddish recalled. “He just wanted to know if I wanted to be in his music video. So, I did his music video and I thought, ‘Oh maybe something might happen, you know!’ I was like, ‘Are you gonna take me to dinner?’ He said, ‘Yeah we could eat dinner,’ and then I never heard from him again.”
Haddish, who is currently promoting The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, admitted she might’ve come off too strong and that she was probably better off playing hard to get.
“[…] I was being thirsty—that’s my fault,” she explained. “I should have said, I’ll see if I can be in your music video. What are you looking at? Are you trying to hang out with me? Ewww gross!’ I should have been like, ‘Who are you again? What do you do?'”
That wasn’t the last time a Graham family member sent her a DM. Haddish also revealed Drake’s dad, Dennis Graham, had DM’d at a later date. This time, however, she responded in a less “thirsty” way and straight up de-nied the man.
“His dad hit me up though and I turned his dad down,” she said. “I’m not being Drake’s step momma!”

“I’m working on an album! Granted, most of this album has already happened in my head but that’s how it starts. It all starts in here and then it comes out and I’ve been talking to people,” Haddish revealed. “[…] I’m trying to get [Cardi B] on a couple of tracks. We’re going to have her chirping in go brrrrrrr. I’m like she ready brrrrrrr!”
