Tiffany Haddish has once again proven she’s the queen of comedy—this time by addressing viral baby rumors during her guest-hosting gig on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on August 19, 2025.
The rumors started when Haddish posted a picture on Instagram of herself holding a baby next to her friend Jason Lee, founder of Hollywood Unlocked. She captioned it, “Cats out the bag”—and the internet immediately went wild.
Fans, blogs, and even some of her own family members thought she had secretly welcomed a child. “Even my own relatives were asking if I had a secret baby, which is kind of insulting because they are all living in my house,” Haddish joked during her monologue.
But Haddish set the record straight with her signature humor:
“We just took a picture with a baby and then that went crazy. So now we got a godbaby.”
When she teased Jason Lee about making a “real baby together,” he hilariously reminded her (and the world), “And I’m still gay.”

Tiffany’s “Dream Baby Daddy” List
Haddish didn’t stop there. She leaned all the way into the joke, revealing a tongue-in-cheek list of her “potential baby daddies.” The lineup? A mix of A-list actors, athletes, and even a few unexpected names:
- Tom Cruise — “No mission is too impossible for me.”
- Jason Momoa — “Aquaman can come swim in these waters.”
- Brad Pitt — “He can press any of my Benjamin Buttons anytime.”
- Giancarlo Stanton (NY Yankees outfielder)
- Pedro Pascal (yes, The Mandalorian himself)
- Ken Crosby, a producer on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
- Even the fictional Marcus Winfield from Netflix’s Running Point
And, because it wouldn’t be Tiffany without a mic-drop moment, she ended with a brand-new hashtag:
