TERRENCE HOWARD TALKS ABOUT PRINCE CHARMING
THE FACTS
Terrence Howard touched on his new role in The Princess and the Frog with Redbook.
THE SPIN
Given earlier in the year Terrence Howard seemed to sympathize with Chris Brown following his reported beating of Rihanna, many women and men with a clue gave Terrence quite the side-eye. It didn’t help once it became known that he himself has been accused of domestic battery of his now ex-wife.
Though he’s since apologized for those Brown comments, he’s obviously a bit more PC when it comes to his interviews now.
With a new role in Disney’s upcoming movie, The Princess and the Frog, Terrence spoke to Redbook about treating his own daughters like princesses, and regrets on how he’s treated women in the past.
Excerpts below:
RedBook: You have three children, is that right?
Terrence: It is, but I can’t call them children anymore — they’re 12, 14, and 16 years old. I’ve got three associates who live in my house, that’s what I have!RedBook: Did your two daughters influence your decision to do this movie?
Terrence: Yes, because they are my little princesses. When I was speaking as my character (James, Princess Tiana’s father), I was speaking to my little girls.RedBook: Have they changed the way you view women?
Terrence: Young men tend to come into relationships feeling very strong and powerful, and they make a lot of mistakes. But they soften when they have daughters. You see women through a whole different light because now you know that they were once someone’s little girl. I wish I’d had this knowledge when I was 20 — I wish I could call all the women I’ve ever dated and apologize. I didn’t know how precious they were. I know better now.RedBook: If a fairy godmother could grant you one insight into women, what would it be?
Terrence: How to better communicate. A man will say something that in his mind is completely appropriate, even poignant, but the woman will hear it very differently. There’s such frustration in that.
RedBook: Do you believe there’s a Prince (or Princess) Charming for everyone?
Terrence: Yes, you have to believe that or the world stops spinning. The first Prince Charming in our lives is our father, and the first Princess Charming is our mother. I think parents should show their children how to love, how they should be loved.

First off, is it Terrence Howard or Terrance Howard? Can we pay the brother enough respect to spell his Academy Award nominated name right? Details, TV One, details.
Well, if Mr. Howard really sees he has a problem and is really trying to get help to change, then more power to him. That’s better than waiting until it gets really out of hand and he ends up in jail.
love Terrance Howard, handsome, well educated, great actor, Im happy to see that he is a caring father to top it all off. Everyone makes mistakes in there past, the point is to learn from them and move on
Maybe this explains the roles he tend to play (Best Man-Womanizer, Hustle & Flow- Pimp)when it comes to women & relationships.I hope it’s not a difficult task for him;he does have daughters who watch him closely when it comes to relationship with women and the last thing he would want is for his daughters to choose men who treat them the way their father treat women and on the flip side of that, he has a son and if he’s not careful he will rais a man who treat women the same way he has and it’s just becomes a vicious cycle.
much love & respect to terrance for being man enough to admit his faults & to be able to learn from them deserves an applause in my eyes
Love this brother Terrance Howard. I find him to have sex appeal oozing out of him.
If Terrence Howard was a woman beater and disrespected females. I PRAY DEARLY! that he will be delivered. He is worthy of forgiveness. He is educated, talented and so so so fine.
I wonder if Terrance Howard was the one guy that I wanted to go out with to the “Sadie Hawkins Dance” when I was young and was put down infront of his friends.(Just a memory flashback)

I’m not a Terrence Howard person. I don’t find him appealing at all. He always look like a crying man and one who can be self destructive.

Terrance Howard has never appealed to me. There has always been something about him that is sleazy and perhaps even conniving. I don’t know. He is a great actor and not bad to look at, but I will probably never be a fan of his.
