| Howard lost of words. |
Terrence Howard had a very awkward moment at the 2015 Academy Awards, as he
forgot his speech while introducing Whiplash and The Imitation Game.
And
speaking about the embarrassing moment on Monday's episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the actor admitted he got distracted
by Oprah Winfrey, two years after making comments about her 'tig ol'
bitties'.
Terrence
said he spotted the former talk show host in the audience on stage at
the Oscars and immediately flubbed his lines - which he had decided to
learn from heart instead of reading from the teleprompter.
I
was like, "Man, I can memorise that!" So everybody that went up there,
I'm clowning them. I’m clowning, I'm talking to my wife, "Look at this,
man, I can do better than that, wait until I go up there! Watch this,
watch till I go up there!"'
Terrence
added that he also had to try to avoid a wardrobe malfunction, as Jimmy
laughed away at his recollection of the February 22 ceremony.
'I
walk out there and, um, first and foremost, I forgot to wear a belt
that day. So, I’m pulling it up, I’m like, ‘It’s OK, my stomach will
hold it up,' he explained.
'I
get out there and I’m breathing and I got this memorised, I've worked
18 hours to work this out, I'm about to kill it. I get out there…
there's Oprah! "Hi Oprah… Oh, oh, read the lines, read the lines."
'I
try to look up and I’m like, "No, I worked on this, I’m not going to
read the prompter, I’m going to say it from heart." I choked!'
