"You've got to remember that I'm still married. She filed for divorce, but I'm still trying to campaign. My kids are campaigning, too. They'll make sure that anybody who comes sniffing around gets a bloody nose."
Academy Award nominee Terrence Howard responding to scuttlebutt about a romance with former supermodel Naomi Campbell. (People)

I think it's very comendable for him to have the respect not to even consider other women until he's completely divorced.
You can tell that he's a good man
On the outside he seems so compassionate and sweet.
But obviously we don't know everything I wonder why they're even getting a divorce.

I think Terrence is very handsome and talented. in fact he is one of the most adaptable actors in Hollywood. But he seems a little arrogant and cocky in his interviews.And why must he always mention that he is mixed? who cares? If i was his wife the trouble would have began with the award show were he Nelly and Magic were pulled on stage by Destinys Chid. He looked as if he wanted to tear Beyonce dress off! I was even smouldering from the flames! but i kept saying lawdy i hope his wife and her family is not watching this. He was very disrespectful and the publicity he received afterwards was not in good taste for a married man.

Terrance is a great and versatile actor. What's goin on in his personal life is HIS BUSINESS. Leave him alone and stop hatin. He says he's still "campaigning" for his wife to possibly stay with him, since SHE was the one to file for the divorce. If I was him, I'd say let her ass go on. She must have a reason if indeed SHE filed for the divorce. He's got a great and brite future ahead of him. Wifey probably got jealous of his new meteoric rise in stardom. The ladies are probably all over this brother and she just can't deal. But I'm just speculating. It could be anybody's guess as to the reason. And if he keeps saying he is mixed then SO WHAT?
He proud of BOTH sides of his heritage.....as well he should be. We black folks need to quit with this kind of sh!t. PEACE.

I AGREE HE LOOKS LIKE A FOOL IN THAT PICTURE WHILE WANTING HIS WIFE BACK. SHE MUST HAVE SOMETHING GFOING FOR HER ALSO FOR HIM TO STATE THIS OUT FRONT. HE MAY HAVE A BRING FUTURE BUT HE CAN GO DOWN THE HILL LIKE LIONEL RITCHIE WHEN HE GOT THE BIG HEAD. HURRAY FOR THE WOMAN WHO STANDS HER GROUND AND SAY, I MADE YOU AND I'LL BREAK YOU- AND SHE AND HIS MOTHER DID!! WHO CARES COLORS HE COMES FROM, ITS WHAT COLORS HE'LL BE WHEN THE FIGHT IS FINISH!

@garytodd: If Terrence would use more discretion with his personal life, we wouldn't be in his business. He needs to learn to keep his mouth shut sometimes. That's why actors like Leo DiCaprio, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Denzel Washington, and Will Smith keep their personal lives private so people can focus on them as actors.
And what woman do you know that would leave her husband for no reason exactly when he makes it big and starts making some money? Do you think Keisha Whitaker is getting ready to leave Forest Whitaker now? I don't think so. Not saying she loves him for his success, but if she stayed with him when he wasn't successful and trying to make it, she's going no where now. Same for Terrence's wife. And no one told Terrence to escort Naomi Campbell all around Hollywood and let the paparazzi take their picture like they were on a photoshoot. You're right Terrence is a versatile and talented actor and if he wants people to focus on that in this celebrity crazed society we live in, he's going to have to do a better job with being careful about what he says and who he is seen with, especially being a father and a married man!!!

What an Ignorant comment...
If you spent alittle more time NOT worrying about penis size.. you might notice a wonderful actor attached to it..
Who gives a rip about someone you are never gonna get your claws into.. maybe thats the problem..
As for the topic at hand..
None of us are there knowing what that cat and his wife are going through..No one was there referee'n the situation. and it's really not our issue.. I think the man at least is trying to keep his family together.. with our without the wife..
As for him looking like he was going to rip the dress of Beyonce`.. He's a man.. men look.. so what.. If a woman has her man on lock.. looking isn't the problem...
As a female.. I have never worried about men looking at other females.. if I did.. I wouldn't be doing my job...
Hopefully the man get's his relationship together.. if not.. as long as the kids know they have a father that loves them.. then it's all good.

I do not like or respect this man. He is right, he is married and he was married when he let Beyonce give him a lap dance, mind you or public television so that the whole world could see it. He was married when he claimed that Eva Pigford is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. How much respect could he possibly have for his wife and children. He is disrespectful and egotistical and it is obvious that he little career has already clouded his judgement. That's right, leave his behind girlfriend, you should display for your children that any man that you are with should respect you because you respect yourself.

Good luck to Terence and his wife. They are notorious for their frequent break-ups, but obviously that works for them somehow. Other ladies shouldn't really take him seriously as his wife will clearly always be in the picture.
