ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Has there been a particular theme to the promo shoot?
And I think that’s in any business, you gotta pay dues.
‘?Of course this is something I want to do.

I didn’t have the thought of, “Do I want to do this?
Am I going to embarrass myself?”
And then I have to tell that voice, “SHUT UP!
Get outta here!”
So there’s a difference between should I do it’ versus can I do it'?Right.
There’s a big difference in that.
I know Icando it.ShouldI do it?
It’s the same.
I mean, entitled, privileged … it’s the same.
Most of those kids at the bar mitzvahs are probably celebrities.
[Laughs] Let’s be honest.
There’s still a lot of time to go before the show, but are the wheels turning?
Most people don’t have anything, they’re just like, whatever you want me to do."
I never show up empty-handed.
I always show up with something.
And it’s not just you.
You have to bring more than just yourself.
It looks very empowering.Yeah!
I’ve had three or four different looks.
I didn’t even think of the Wonder Woman vibe.
You know what I was thinkin' of?
But you know what, I like the Wonder Woman thing too!
Give me some cuffs on my arms.
I have to imagine, if MTV asks Tiffany Haddish to host, they want all of Tiffany Haddish.
They’re allowing me to be myself.
But no grapefruits, I would assume.Now, that’s not even mythingthing.
That was for the movie.
Mythingthing is Fruit by the Foot.
Oh yeah, baby!
There’s so much you might do with it.
Ties hands, wrap it around …Wrap it around!
Don’t stop till it’s all gone!
… Six feet of fun!
But see, when you date somebody that’s got kids, this is what I learned about it.
Yeah, see, that’s why I can’t date men with kids.
You ate their snacks.Usedtheir snacks.Demolishedtheir snacks.
There’s an idea for theGirls Tripsequel.
[Laughs] You’re so red right now!
At this point, the most difficult thing is time management and when do I get to rest.
And I’m also on a comedy tour.
… Every single weekend I’m in a different city; last weekend I was in three different states.
In one weekend.In one weekend.
When I got home, I just cried.
Because you were so tired?
Look at all this money you’re makin'!
You’re gonna be able to take care of your grandmaandyour mom for years to come!
That must make all the hard work worth it.It makes it all worth it.
I will be tired forever if I could see my family healed and better.
It’s so … [cries].
I had to get my dog surgery.
I have the money now!"
And it feels so good.
Even though she’s hoppin' around, she’s going to be good in three weeks.
I was able to get my dog surgery!
[Whispers] Black people don’t do that.
Black people don’t really get their dogs surgeries spayed and neutered, that’s it.
The 2018 MTV Movie & TV Awards will air Monday, June 18, at 9 p.m.
