‘I Was Knocking ’Em Down’: Chingy Finally ’Fesses Up to His Tryst With Tiffany Haddish

Well, well, well, look what we have here, or should we say “right hurr”?

Rapper Chingy has finally ’fessed up to having a one-time tryst with actress and comedian Tiffany Haddish, just six months after vehemently denied the two ever shared a intimate moment together.

The “Girls Trip” star spilled the beans of her one-off with the “I like the way you do that right thurr” rapper on “The Ellen Show” while playing a game of “Burning Questions.” Haddish was asked to reveal an actor she’d dated, but instead she divulged a little-known hookup she’d had with the rapper.

From there it was full steam ahead on the denial boat captained by Chingy.

The St. Louis native even took to social, where he wrote in a since-deleted post, “Now @tiffanyhaddish knows damn well that’s a lie an since she lied I’m a tell the truth she use to hook up with my brother not me but she liked me.Hey if we gone be honest let’s be honest #chingy #facts #juslikethat.”

Haddish, of course, hit back, providing more details of the one-off lovers tangle. While the verdict was split on whether she was telling the truth or simply revising her personal history, it seems Chingy has been moved to tell it all.

While speaking with Mike Hill, the beau to “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast member Cynthia Bailey, on Fox Soul, the MC recently recounted how the forgotten memory came to be.

“I actually didn’t remember it. I don’t remember it still to this day, so I had to call my brother who I know know everything. And so I ask him, I was like, back then I used to drink and sh-t. I was like a bowling ball, I was knocking ’em down,” recalled the rapper. “I call him, I was like, ‘Aye, man, did that happen?’ He said, like, ‘Yeah, that happened. I was with her friend, you had her one night everybody was f—-d up. We was in my room, then you and her went to your room and woopty woo.’ It is what it is.”

So there you have vindication at its comical best.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
