Terrence Howard teared up in his intimate interview with RedBook Magazine. As he expressed his remorse for his behavior towards women, we can’t help but think that Terrence Howard was a womanizer before he had his daughters.

Interview Under the Hood

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.

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.

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.

I hope he has to watch as young men treat his daughters the way he treated women he dated. It’s called karma. It can be painful.

at least he’s honest. Women do hear things different, but sometimes, they blow s.h.i.t out of proportion too. But, also, sometimes, men just blurt out whatever’s on their mind w/o thinking about it first…

Why would he call his kids *****ociates as opposed to young adults…Not buying it!

Well if this true and all people can change if there are open to change and finding a better way to deal with problems… Just earlier this year he was charged with beating his wife so he has not learn all that much on how to treat or deal with woman… Men always feel that there reason are valid for having a bad attitude and a lack of maturity when it comes to there thoughts and actions… And will still have the nerve to blame and point fingers for there life style and bad habits…. Typical…

Nope he’s just worried that someone will do his daughters like he did them .. All ways remember there’s no such that as past because sometimes that right there be the one to come and hunt us lol get my bank account number put my funds in then apology will be accepted lol!!

Rrrrroe Ski Love- A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

11/13/09, 14:14:pm

If his kids are teenagers, shouldn’t he have made this decision about 12 years ago or so? Dude is promoting his new movie like they all do.

In an ideal world, our failed relationships are supposed to teach us for future ones. We will know he is sorry if he treats the next one better than he has treated others in the past…He’s still fine though!!!

11/13/09, 17:33:pm

There is no need for him to apologize. All the disrespect and emotional pain he inflicted on others will come back to him with interest.

It may come back to him in the form of his daughters all being run through by a succession of doggish men.

Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!!!

11/13/09, 17:38:pm

It may also come back to him in the form of him falling deeply in love with a woman who has a lot of emotional baggage from being mistreated by a succession of doggish men…and she takes out her anger and dysfunction on him.

11/13/09, 18:42:pm

You wish you could??? Are they all deceased? If you mean it, pick up the phone and call them, brothers, listen to this..while ya’ll are disrespecting women, you have to look into the eyes of your daughters one day, and be on pins and needles about the lowlife that possibly disrepects them one day…..Think!!!!

Black Yet Never: I think you’re right. Bossip did not post those photos from his family trip to Italy. The lady is not Zulay, and: She never smiles, she thought the J. Foxx diss on him was funny as she was “mad at him at the time”, runs from cameras like a phobia, and swears at TH via text. It seems to be “coming around”. He’s in my prayers, whatever happens.

I’M GLAD, HE’ HAS LEARNED FROM HIS MISTAKES AND I HOPE THAT HE TEACHES HIS SON TO BE A BETTER MAN THAN HE WAS/IS. BECAUSE WE DON’T WANT ANOTHER “LIKE FATHER LIKE SON”. THAT WOULD JUST BE TOO SAD.
