Terrence Howard caused a bit of behind-the-scenes drama at the ALMA awards this weekend, when he went way off script while he was presenting an award with Mexican actress Angelica Vale (the original Ugly Betty). He was apparently so taken with her that he thought it was appropriate to ignore the teleprompter and kick game on stage in front of television cameras and a live, celebrity audience.
As if it’s not embarrassing enough for Terrence Howard’s daughter that her dad, in this day and age, threatened to kill her boyfriend and compared her to an unripened fruit, he’s telling the press about it. Somehow, someday, a publicist is going to need to tell him how weird he sounds in interviews. Handle that, publicists!
