Terrence Howard Leads Homecoming Marching Band

Terrence Howard Leads Homecoming Marching Band

Academy Award-nominated actor Terrence Howard dresses up in marching band gear and serves as Howard University’s homecoming ambassador and grand marshal at the school’s homecoming football game in Washington, D.C., on Sunday.

“I am very excited about participating in Howard University’s legendary Homecoming,” said Terrence. “I am looking forward to celebrating with the students and the distinguished alumni of this great American treasure.”

Sitting in the audience watching Terrence lead the marching band was Sean “Diddy” Combs, who had his arm in a sling. According to him, he just had shoulder surgery from working out too hard.

Terrence, now 39, never finished college himself but was admitted to the Pratt Institute in New York. He didn’t complete his education as he had joined his brother on an audition for The Cosby Show and was cast in the role.

A million posts for Britney and 2 negative for this? Sad. Anyways it’s great to see Terrance out there. I believe that Diddy also went to Howard.

I don’t like his voice. He is not suited to his role.

It’s because some folks don’t understand HBCU Marching Bands. that’s maybe why it got a negative comments.

This is not some band-geek stuff, This is BANDHEAD Material.
The People in Our World Love This Stuff. ..

From Kanye West, Flavor Flav, Lil Wayne, T Pain, Gwen Stefani, Andrew WK., Tommie Lee, Lenny Kravitz, Branford Marsalis,, Janet Jackson , Prince, WWE’s JOHN CENA …to most Recently.. Beyonce ( watch her video for Single Ladies) .. Have been using the Marching Bands themes in their Song/ Music Vids / shows for YEARS. They inspire Us, We Inspire Them .. WE as in the BANDHEADS .. and we love this stuff too.

What people don’t realize is that we are are a culture that goes beyond one Genre of Music and has been around for Decades.

There’s Way more to it that what you Thought you saw In drumline..

Thanks Just Jared for your report.. I Pasted it to Marchingsport.com with a link back here to see all photos
