Tiffany and Selena Celebrate a Bond That’s Unbreakable

Comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish knows firsthand how meaningful it is to have your friends show up when you need it most. Her friendship with Selena, her BFF of 20 years, is rare and steadfast. “You visited me when I was in foster care,” Tiffany reflected, “and even as an adult, you’ve pulled me through some of the toughest times.” It’s no surprise Tiffany was eager to give back in a big way. She recruited Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott to transform Selena's dated house into a dream home. Together, they would give her a new living and dining area, kitchen and bathroom.

Delivering Comedy on Demo Day

Humorously donning a certain Property Brother’s signature attire, Tiffany let loose and helped demo the kitchen in her best friend’s house. She acknowledged the family had done some updates to the cabinets and backsplash, but the finishes themselves weren’t great. Tiffany vowed to help Drew and Jonathan throughout the entire four-week renovation process.

The Living Room, Before

The living room in the family’s home was uncharacteristically dark for their bright personalities. Tiffany expressed interest in making it more sophisticated. Her and the brothers planned to update the dated, 1970s stone fireplace; relocate the ceiling-mounted television to better serve the family and balance out the room; and replace the recessed lights in the ceiling that, even fully brightened, didn’t seem to offset the darkness felt in the space.

The Living Room, After

The newly designed living room screams elegance. The centered stone fireplace features an inset area for a framed television (one that very luxuriously displays art when not in use). White paint covers the previously blue walls to make the room brighter. Floor-to-ceiling curtains and lush green plants round out the design. Light furnishings, engineered hardwood floors and gold accessories also give the space a welcoming and modern ambiance.
