Tiffany Haddish: Why I Cannot Have S£x with Burna Boy

According to a report by The Cable on Thursday, April 23, 2026, American comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish has joked about why she would not pursue a sexual relationship with Nigerian Grammy-winning singer Burna Boy, making the comments during a light-hearted segment on The Jason Lee Show.

The discussion took place during a game of “smash or pass,” where celebrities are casually rated on whether someone would consider dating them. When Burna Boy’s name was mentioned, Haddish immediately opted out, but followed up with a humorous and exaggerated explanation that quickly drew attention online.

“I’m gonna go ahead and pass,” she said during the show. “I feel like that manhood got witchcraft on it.”

Haddish went on to describe the singer as someone with a strong influence on women, suggesting that his personality and public appeal often lead to intense admiration from fans. She credited his global popularity and charisma as part of what makes him stand out.

“I feel like he’s been around parts of Africa and women love him and want him,” she said. “It is the type of man that makes people act out of character.”

The 44-year-old actress, known for her bold humour and outspoken personality, added that she would prefer to admire the artist from a distance rather than risk getting emotionally or behaviourally overwhelmed.

“I’m gonna be supportive from a distance because that is going to have me acting out of character,” she said.
