’80s star Tiffany is embracing a simple life in Tennessee after teen pop stardom found her early in her life.
During an interview with Digital, Tiffany discussed how she previously shared that she left California and never looked back. Now, she’s embracing her time “in the kitchen” on her property in Nashville.
“For the most part, six o’clock rolls in, and I’m in the kitchen. I’m cooking. That’s it. And you know by eight o’clock, I like to sit down and watch some Netflix and chill out,” the singer said. “And we start it all again the next day.”

The singer, whose full name is Tiffany Darwish, has spent the past several years building a culinary brand that combines her love of cooking, entertaining, and connecting with fans. Through her platform, Let’s Food With Tiffany, she offers recipes, virtual cooking experiences, and food-focused events that showcase the same energy and creativity that made her a pop sensation.

One of Tiffany’s newest projects is “Pop Life,” a cookbook created with Las Vegas celebrity chef Alicia Shevetone.
“Most of my family’s passed away. And I think we all felt so vulnerable. And for me, I ended up getting stuck in Los Angeles. I live in Nashville, but I was traveling and everything started locking down, and I was too afraid to get on a plane.”
She told Digital which recipes mean the most to her after dedicating the cookbook to her grandmothers.

“The German chocolate muffins. My grandmother loved German chocolate cake,” she began. “And so, you know, those little mini bites are everything. We really perfected them until they tasted like my grandma’s German chocolate. And I have to say that my sister, Cheressa, really helped on that, because she plated all the food. My brother-in-law took all the photos. It was a family affair.”

During her interview with Digital, Tiffany shared that she always had a passion for food and cooking and was able to turn that hobby into a business. It was also a “therapy” outlet for the singer during difficult times, like the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Oh, coffee, first thing in the morning. Coffee and meditation time out on the porch with my dogs and my cat and taking it in. It’s really active on the property,” she began. Tiffany shared that she prays and expresses gratitude for her life before getting a workout in and hopping on calls.

Speaking to Digital, Tiffany explained that releasing “POP LIFE” now felt right because she “organically fell into alignment” with Shevetone.
“She’s a chef, she’s doing some celebrity parties, working with celebrity chefs,” Tiffany noted.

“So, it took a minute because I traveled to Vegas for a show. Of course, I connected with Chef Alicia. We went out for dinner, we went out for drinks, her husband, Mark, my fiancé, Mark. Two 80s girls, literally listening to soundtrack of the 80s, having our cocktails. And I just was like, ‘You know what? I think we should do a cookbook together,’” Tiffany continued.
Tiffany and Shevetone decided to create a cookbook that focused on popular foods in the 80s.
“POP LIFE: The Ultimate 80s Kitchen Encore” is out now.
