{MIDDAYS WITH JAZZY MCBEE} TIFFANY HADDISH SPEAKING OUT ABOUT CANCELING FOX THEATER SHOW

TIFFANY HADDISH CANCELS SHOW FOLLOWING GEORGIA’S ABORTION BAN

Comedian Tiffany Haddish canceled her June 22 show in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre due to Georgia’s controversial new abortion law.

The “heartbeat” abortion law, signed by Gov. Brian Kemp last month, bans the procedure as soon as a doctor can detect a heartbeat, which typically happens about six weeks into a pregnancy.

“After much deliberation, I am postponing my upcoming show in Atlanta,” Haddish stated to CNN on Saturday. “I love the state of Georgia, but I need to stand with women and until they withdraw Measure HB481, I cannot in good faith perform there.”
