In 2022, Tiffany Haddish and fellow comedian Aries Spears were sued over accusations of child sexual abuse, sexual harassment, sexual battery and more.

The lawsuit stemmed from a Jane Doe who detailed two alleged instances where Haddish, described as a close family friend at the time, recruited both her and her brother (John Doe) to perform inappropriate and sexually suggestive acts when they were 14 and seven, respectively. The treatment John was allegedly subjected to, in particular, was documented in a skit that previously lived on the Funny or Die platform, titled “Through a Pedophile’s Eyes.” That skit has since been taken off the platform, though footage of it has still been seen floating around on social media.

The news of that lawsuit immediately caused a significant drop in opportunities for Haddish though it was later dismissed with prejudice. Since then, Haddish has also made negative headlines thanks to her high-profile DUI arrest, highly publicized trip to Israel, and controversial comments about college protestors.
