BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) – “Girls Trip” breakout star Tiffany Haddish says she was just joking when she said she wanted to work with Bill Cosby.

Haddish told reporters Thursday that she made the remarks during a day of interviews and was trying to be funny while reflecting a fearless approach to her work.

She said it was “not the best joke” and clarified that she doesn’t “agree with what he did or anything.”

Haddish appeared at the Television Critics Association’s summer meeting to discuss her role in Tracy Morgan’s new TBS comedy, “The Last O.G.” Morgan plays a man just released from prison after 15 years. Haddish plays his former girlfriend who has moved on.
