Summary
The legal nightmare might be over for comedians Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears, but their trouble may have just begun. Last month, a 22-year-old woman filed a lawsuit alleging that Tiffany and Aries had coerced her and her younger brother to film some extremely inappropriate comedy videos when they were minors. They also made some pretty disturbing claims in the suit. Now, just weeks after filing, the case has been dismissed, and the “Girls Trip” star is off the hook, at least legally. Tiffany says she has been found guilty in the court of public opinion and that the damage to her career and reputation is immeasurable. In fact, she says “I lost everything!” So will she bounce back from this…and should she even be able to?
