Terrence Howard Denies Romance With Taraji P. Henson

Wednesday – November 04, 2009 – 10:46am

They may have hosted last night's Soul Train Music Awards together, but Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson insist they're not mixing business with pleasure.

"We're not dating," the Oscar-nominated actress, 39, told Usmagazine.com before the awards show in Atlanta Tuesday, where she walked the red carpet with Howard, 40.

Check out stars on set.

Echoes Howard to Us: "I've known her too long. She knows what I'm thinking!"

Henson -- who once dated Khloe Kardashian's now-husband, L.A. Lakers star Lamar Odom -- has a son from a previous relationship -- and admits that some men she dates are turned off by her situation.

See the day's top celeb news photos.

"Most men are fragile," Henson told Men's Fitness. "I'm a successful woman, in the public eye, and raising a kid by myself. It can leave guys feeling like, 'Damn, how can I have a chance?'"

Her answer: "Just be a man!"

    Howard looks like he has a roving eye and Henson has too much going on for to be dealing with that crap.

    WHY CAN'T PEOPLE OF THE OPPOSITE SEX BE FRIENDS WITHOUT HOOKING-UP??? NOT ALL PEOPLE HAVE FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS!!! SOME OF US DO HAVE TRULY GOOD FRIENDS THAT ARE MALE AND IT BEATS BEING FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE THAT WILL STAB YOU IN THE BACK.

    isn't he engaged to some hispanic girl? i don't think he likes black girls anyway but maybe she's an exception.

    They've probably known each other for a long while and are just good friends. Not because they hosted a show together means they should date. Everytime celebrities do things together these gossip columnists make up stories about their dating to sell their papers.
