"Black Mitzvah," which is unbelievably hilarious,

by the way, on Netflix. Congrats on that.

-Thank you. -You're just crushing it.

It comes out on Tuesday. But Tuesday is also your birthday.

-Yeah, yeah. -Happy birthday!

-Thank you. -It's been a great week.

Happy, happy, happy birthday!

[ Cheers and applause ] -Thank you, thank you.

-I hope you have a great, great year.

-I hope so too, shoot. -What are you doing on Tuesday?

A big party? -Yeah, I'm having a bat mitzvah.

Yeah, I'm having a bat mitzvah for -- yeah.

-For you? -Yeah, my 21st birthday

for the 19th year, um, I'm having a bat mitzvah.

I've been studying Hebrew now for the last, like,

four or five months now. I'm reading the Torah.

I'm getting circumcised in front of everybody.

[ Laughter ] -No, no,

that's not the way it works. [ Laughter ]

But this is actually -- -I'm just playing.

I'm not getting circumcised. I already did that.

[ Laughter ]

-This is a cool thing. You just realized this, right,

your Jewish heritage? -Yeah, when I was 27.

But first, when I was like 15, 16,

my grandma told me. And, you know,

it's like, I don't know, do I believe her? Do I not?

But I started working at bar and bat mitzvahs

as an energy producer, and I did that for like 11 years.

And then, I met my father, finally, when I was 27,

and he broke it down to me and said "Yes."

And in the country that he's from,

it was kind of illegal to be Jewish,

and that he fled and there was a war

and all of this stuff. And so, and then, I believed him,

but kind of didn't believe him. But I believed him

because I was so drawn to it. -Yeah.

-And then, I did my 23andMe.

And then, you know, boom, Hebrew over here.

So I had to do it. -Wow, that's pretty cool.

[ Cheers and applause ]

-Yeah, got to represent my ancestors.

You know, I think it's really important

to represent your ancestors. I mean,

they did what they did to get you here, so why not honor them?

-That's fantastic. I love that.

And at the beginning -- Sure, yeah, you can clap for that.

[ Cheers and applause ] I agree.

At the beginning of the special, you come out being --

you are carried in a chair. -Yes,

by four strong black men. [ Laughter ]

-And you're singing "Hava Nagila."

-Yes. -And it is really awesome.

And I love that song and I'm just wondering

since you're here, The Roots are here,

a microphone is here. -Oh.

-Could you give us a little taste?

-Oh, yes. [ Cheers and applause ]

-It's one of my favorites. -Come on.

I want to show everyone a clip from "Black Mitzvah."

Take a look at this. Tiffany Haddish.

-I stopped smoking cigarettes and I started to, uh, eat.

[ Laughter ]

And my inheritance started to kick in.

You know, how most people,

they get houses, cars, things like that.

Well, you know, um, my inheritance was that DNA.

I inherited this ass.

[ Cheers and applause ]

And I ain't gonna lie to you. I like my inheritance a lot!

[ Cheers and applause ] -Tiffany Haddish, everybody!
