We recently reported on Terrence Howard’s engagement to Colombian banger Zulay Henao but now there is confirmation from the actor himself that its not Zulay Henao he’s engaged to but he did pop the question to his longtime girlfriend. Pop the hood for more

Terrence Howard has confirmed that he’s getting hitched.

S2S was at the Children Uniting Nations Gala in Washington D.C., which followed the 4th Annual Keeping the Promise to Our Children conference. Celebrities came out to support panel discussions during the day, but at night, everyone got down to celebrate a job well done.

There were performances from different artists like Shawn King and David Archuletta. Our favorite, though, was Terrence Howard, who graced the crowd with his soulfully raspy voice. But his main goal at the gala was to get everyone to step up and do more for their communities.

“I’m trying to encourage everyone to do their part with regard to kids, with regard to themselves, with regard to us as human beings,” he said. “If we’re made in God’s image, then act like it.”

But while we were talking to the noticeably upbeat actor we noticed that he was rocking what looked like a wedding ring, so you know we had to ask him if he’d jumped the broom with Zulay Henao.

“Not yet,” he said. “Just engaged.” He went on to reference the Bible, pointing out that, “God said to Adam that it’s not good for the man to continue by himself.”

Terrence took that message to heart, which led him to follow another rule from the Good Book: Ask and you shall receive.

“For the last two years I’ve been praying and saying, ‘I’m no good by myself,’” Terrence told S2S. “’Please give me my complement so that I might be able do the very best that I can.’”

Congratulations to the happy couple.

Not sure what to think. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see who the lucky woman is since he’s chosen not to say her name.

““For the last two years I’ve been praying and saying, ‘I’m no good by myself,’” Terrence told S2S.”

Wouldn’t his ex-wife disagree with this? Hmmm, I think he put her through the emotional wringer. . .

@Neekyuk

“Why does this man not do it for me- green eyed and handsome though he is??”

I think it may be his slight case of insanity. I’ll never forget his quote in Essence a while ago that he tried to pursue Halle and Gaby, and neither one returned his calls. Wow, imagine that. . .

Yeah, he just seems deeply troubled to me, like he’s still finding himself. Not appealing, IMHO.

He’s either married already (maybe he never left his wife?), or I think he’s having a break down, and we should really say a prayer for him, and that God really does send him someone special. His “ring” was off and then on that day….

His ex-wife has re-married so she doesn’t care. I hope he doesn’t bust down Zulay’s door and gives her the old 1,2 to the face. Old habits die hard.

Cutie

6/16/09, 10:38:am

Black women (in general) don’t like light skinned men. Gotta have some chocolate. I guess it’s no difference. LOL. I guess after being told that he wasn’t dark enough, he went somewhere he would be accepted.

T. Howard is right. Ronal Reagan did more for blacks than Obama. The drug trade he allowed to escalate in the black communities destroyed black families and made dopeboys rich. Can’t say the same for Obama.

About the interracial issue, Terrence Howard defends the fact that he has tried to date black women.

“I tried to talk to Halle for a bit. Didn’t call me back,” Terrence confessed. “Tried to talk to Gabrielle Union. Didn’t call me back, either.”

Finally, Terrence surmised the reason for the criticism against his relationship choices: “I’ve heard it said that I only date White women. The only woman I really love is my wife, and she happens to be White. Who gives a damn? A lot of Black women get upset. You know, the fact is, we are human beings.”

The drug trade in America is a 300 billion a year industry and we blacks only contribute a miniscule amount to it. We broke but we get high. The drug trade is allowed to happen cause the money is toooooooooo *****ing good! *****ody is going to stop it. *****ODY!!!!!!

6/16/09, 13:09:pm

After Terrance’s comments about our President Barack, I don’t give a flying f@ck what he does or who he’s with! I can only hope that his career will dry up even quicker. BTW, she must really be into his baby wipes requirement….LOL!

6/16/09, 19:33:pm

HELLO BOSSIP???
is there something missing in the story to make you write this crazy article title?? you wonder who the lucky lady will be? are yall serious?? S2S asked him if he was “married” to Zulay yet….he said “not yet, just ENGAGED”…..which should leave everyone to believe he’s engaged to zulay and not some mystery chick. Damn!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAAP!!!!

6/16/09, 19:52:pm

I don’t think he’s any nuttier than the rest of the general Hollywood population. He looks like me and his style is very close to my own. To hell with y’all bitter detractors. When is YOUR next movie coming out?

Do your thang, Terrance. A wise man learns from his pasts mistakes and evolves…And one lesson is never marry the indigenous African American ***** *****…Hell, don’t marry any of these local *****es. I say choose your ***** like you’d choose your car – FOREIGN MADE, FOREIGN BORN!

6/17/09, 01:53:am

who cares who Terrence Howard is marrying this pale face green eyed kinky hair arrogant negro thinks his ***** don’t stink when it smells really bad!!! his lame excuse about how he tried to talk to Halle Berry when he knew she was with Gabriel what the hell did he expect her do dump who she was with for his conceited ***** i think not!!! Halle was suppose to stay with who shes still with and Gabrielle union was also with someone why the hell did he go after “taken woman” when there’s plenty of single black women in Hollywood who wouldve loved for him to ask them out plus hes full of ***** anyway he said in ESSENCE how he was “still in love with his ex-wife” to thee extent of “stalking her” which is down right creepy and dangerous.. this means he wouldve “used up” the black women while he tried to get his ex-wife back therefore hurting the black women for no reason which wouldve been wrong!! hes full of himself .. @ marquis de sade your a jack***** for your ignorant comments about black women .. its ok to marry the white mans white women, the same women who use to lie and cry rape then 2 seconds later you all had a noose around your neck while the being strung up to be hanged from a tree set on fire with your damn ears +***** cut off!!! is she better for your dumb *****!!!! if you feel she is good go away and have a nice life with your white women you wont be missed for you by the jokes on you!!! you black men havent “upgraded” youve “downgraded ” most foreign women don’t want black men.. so please go kill yourself and put yourself out of misery .. its obvious by your comments you have issues.. Zulay has stated in several magazines she not with Terrence ,Terrence has stated in s2s magazine recently that he was dating a bi-racial model who has his same colored green eyes.. so sit down and be quiet about black women already who cares about how you feel about us your no loss to us and if your not black your even more pathetic to come on this site which is black owned to take time out of your day to talk ish about us!!! with all that hate in your heart its obvious your not happy with your own life.. go away

I don’t get what the hype is around this guy. Yeah he has nice looks, but thats it.

He looks like the type of guy to take off socks after a long day of walking and running and he smells them.

Don’t get it!

6/17/09, 15:57:pm

Why did “brotha” Terrence put a perm on his hair? LOL

Also, this is not news ALL successful black men hate themselves and there mothers and sisters. OF COURSE he is going to be with anything but a black woman.

Oh yeah, Terrance is a terrible actor, he talks out of his nose. Give me Don Cheadle any day! BYE
