Tiffany Haddish trolled as she reveals propositioning Leonardo DiCaprio but on one bizarre condition
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Tiffany Haddish revealed she once propositioned Leonardo DiCaprio when they met but with one very important caveat.
During her appearance on 'The Howard Stern Show' on Thursday, June 6, the 44-year-old actress and comedian was questioned about her recent dating experiences.
Haddish claimed to be single, however, she has recently begun dating sporadically but she's got a certain kind of man in mind.
Tiffany Haddish made bizarre conditional offer to Leonardo DiCaprio
Speaking on SiriusXM's 'The Howard Stern Show,' the stand-up comedian revealed that she apprised DiCaprio, 49, that she wanted to "f**k" him, but only if he would emulate his character Arnie from the 1993 movie 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape.'
I told him, ‘I want to f–k, but only if you are your character out of ‘What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,'" Haddish recalled.
Host Howard Stern, laughing and astonished by Haddish's admission, remarked, "Get out of here. You didn't say that." However, Robin Quivers, Stern's co-host, backed Haddish, claiming that LD was "cute even then as Arnie."
Elevating the joke a level, the 'Girls Trip' actress added she preferred her partners "with a little bit of a disability."

Haddish confessed that, at 44, she's definitely too old and not DiCaprio's style, even if she's "still working on" to get him to sleep with her, per TMZ.
She stated, "I don’t think I’m his type," in reference to the 'Titanic' star, who is notorious for dating women under the age of 25, "I think I might be too old."
According to Newsweek, DiCaprio is currently dating Italian beauty Vittoria Ceretti, who turned 26 on Thursday, June 6.
The 49-year-old Oscar winner is best known for playing the part of Arnie Grape, a young child with special needs in the Johnny Depp-starring 1993 movie.
In the film, DiCaprio played Arnie, a teenage boy with an intellectual handicap, opposite Depp. He received his first-ever nomination for an Academy Award in the Best Supporting Actor category for the role.
Tiffany Haddish previously expressed desire to roleplay with Leonardo DiCaprio
Haddish has already expressed her wish to act out scenarios in bed with DiCaprio. During her 2018 appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', she talked about how she met the 'Great Gatsby' star at a party in Beverly Hills.
Haddish claimed she approached him, introduced herself, and complimented him. In exchange, the actor expressed his appreciation for her work and that he found her to be "really funny." But the claimed conversation abruptly changed course.
"I was like ‘I wanna hit.’ He's like ‘What?’ I said, ‘I wanna hit that, I ain't talking about drugs,’" Haddish remembered.
She added, "He was like, ‘Oh, you're hilarious,’ And I was like, ‘No, there's stipulations to it though. See, I wanna get some but I only wanna do it to you as your character out of What's Eating Gilbert Grape.’"
Evidently, DiCaprio found the offer confusing, per Complex.

Social media users immediately took to online platforms to mock the comedian as one wrote on Facebook, "First Henry now Leo. She needs to learn to keep things to herself."
A second one remarked, "Man what happen with her ? She was doing good and just started going down after a few years . When she released that weird skit with Aries spears I stopped watching her films"
"She’s over 25," chimed in another, referring to the infamous age boundary, while another added, "Ma’am you aged out nearly 2 decades ago"
One more said, "Now she's just embarrassing herself , apparently he wasn't interested so she should have kept that rejection to herself."
"There needs to be a video of a bunch of special needs guys going up to her asking to want to bang," snarked another one.
