Eritrean-American comedian Tiffany Haddish has shared footage of the moment she learned she had won a Grammy, while filming for a children’s TV show in the US.
On Sunday Haddish became the first black woman to win in the best comedy album category in 35 years, with the audio recording of Black Mitzvah.
The stand-up special explores Jewish identity, and draws on Haddish’s personal experiences as the daughter of an Eritrean Jewish man.
