Terrence Howard’s Expensive Week

October 26th, 2008 by Wendie


It hasn’t been going too well for Terrence Howard lately.  First, he was replaced in the Iron Man sequel.  Now he has been slapped with a $5 million lawsuit.  Composer Tex Allen, brother of choreographer Debbie, alleges that Terrence assaulted him while they were working together on Broadway’s Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.  According to the lawsuit, Allen was punched repeatedly in the face by Howard and the incident ruined his ability to play piano.  I’m not saying it’s right to punch someone but five million dollars?

    Who are you to put a price on what his ability to play the piano for the rest of his life is worth?

    i don’t understand the punching in the face and the piano thing, but i really hope he didn’t lose his ability to play because that would be like tragic :[

    Any time I see him all I can think of is the whole baby wipe thing.

    Because, ya know, you obviously can’t play piano with a messed up face.

    Alright, alright, I’ll be nice! Poor gu… eh, maybe next post.

    Am I the only one that notices that he’s got some strabismus going on in his eyes?

  7. Mercy says:

    …how the hell does punching someone in the face ruin their ability to play piano? Did he punch SO HARD that he caused brain damage or nerve damage? If so, he should BE Ironman, dammit.

    He was picking his nose when Terrence punched him and now his hand is shattered

    I wonder if the producers of Ironman saw something like this coming.

    LOL@ lorelei.

    To me atleast, Terrence Howard gives off that vibe of an egotistical raging dickhead underneath it all. So whatever, I’m not feeling sorry for him. So there! ;)

    If his ability to play the piano was indeed ruined, I think that is beyond $5 million. For a musician and composer that could be life-shattering. Don’t forget that this is potentially compensation for ALL his future earnings.
