I didn’t know. So I took it with me and then I start using the bathroom and they’re like ‘Tiffany, you know we know you’re in the restroom right now.’ I was like, ‘Y’all can see me?!'”
After she and Ellen share a laugh, Tiffany added, “Needless to say, I sold that show!” Besides reliving her recent humiliations, Tiffany also told Ellen about , through the Bumble dating app. “I am single, but I’m dating,” she explained. “I’ve been using Bumble.
