Tiffany Haddish dancing at the Eritrean Festival

Tiffany Haddish definitely doesn’t shy away from her Eritrean roots and this was clearly evident at the Eritrean Festival which was held in Washington D.C. over the weekend. The highly sought after comedian and actress was in attendance and she clearly couldn’t hide her excitement when she took to the stage.

With a very welcoming applause and cheers from her compatriots, the “Girls Trip” star took some time to do the traditional Eritrean ululations and eskita dance which she flawlessly finessed.

Born in Los Angeles, California to an African-American mother and an Eritrean father, Tifanny Haddish visited the Horn of Africa nation early this year to bury her father, Tsihaye Reda Haddish.

Below is an extended video of her dancing the eskita at the Eritrean Festival. Enjoy!
