Tiffany Haddish used Henry Cavill as an example to explain why she no longer dates celebrities.
The 44-year-old actress hinted that many stars are very different from that perception, calling the Man of Steel star, 40, “awkward” as an example.
So the comedian, who also recently opened up about using secret social media accounts, said he no longer wants to date celebrities like himself.
She revealed that she has switched dating apps and is using Bumble instead of Raya, which caters to the star's demands.
“All the famous people I used to think of, I was like, 'Oh, I want to give him a go,'” she admitted in an interview with the Los Angeles Times published Thursday.
“Now that I know them, I’m like, ‘No,’” she said.
Haddish then gave the example of Cavill, who is pregnant with his first child with his Hollywood executive girlfriend Natalie Viscuso for three years, after meeting the star in person and finding out his true personality. , explained how he became disillusioned with stardom.
“I used to want Henry Cavill. I think he's a really hot guy,” she said. “But when I met him, he was very awkward.”
Furthermore, she added: “I was like, 'That's weird. I should talk to him about Dungeons & Dragons. Maybe he'll be more comfortable.'”
The Girls' Trip star also wondered if he was being “awkward” because he was nervous around his girlfriend.
“Or maybe he's never had a black woman say to him, 'What's up? What's your credit score? Do you like spaghetti? I'll cook for you. Are you scared of South Central? Aren't you?' do not have.”
Despite this, she still praised his good looks, adding, “He's still beautiful.”
On the topic of romance and dating, Haddish also revealed that she has a new personal rule: All romances end after nine months.
Similarly, she said she is trying to slow down in her own career, look out for her own best interests, and take more time off.
“If I say I can’t do something, I can’t do it,” she said.
“I feel more comfortable saying that now,” she told the magazine.
“We can no longer bend over backwards,” added the night school graduate. “I'm not made for that.”

Last year, she said she was focused on herself.
“I'm in a relationship,” she told People magazine at the season 2 premiere of her show Afterparty in June 2023.
She added that she goes on dates “sometimes” but that suitors have to “earn the privilege” of joining her at public events.
