Cringe: Terrence Howard had yet another awkward award show appearance after his bizarre Oscar meltdown earlier this year.
After arriving on stage sweaty, fidgety and wearing sunglasses, he grimaced as he removed them and began their scripted intro.
'Now there are some similarities between who we are in real life an who we play on TV,' he said before turning to the 45-year-old.
'Yes, in real life Terrence is a self taught musician,' she said before he interrupted to scoff at her pronunciation of 'musician'.

Keep it simple in a long black dress like Taraji
While many starlets experimented with bold colors and statement prints on the red carpet, Taraji P Henson kept things simple wearing a long black dress with chain detailing for the occasion.
The maxi dress with cut-out bandeau and sheer pleated skirt was made especially for Taraji by Alexander Wang (lucky her!) and features the same chain straps as he debuted in his SS16 collection a few days ago at New York Fashion Week.

Awkward: After she fluffed her line, she blurted 'You make me nervous!' - which no doubt made some in attendance squirm in their seat, following the actor's recent admission he beat his ex-wife
'You make me nervous!' she blurted in response, which no doubt made some in attendance squirm in their seat, following the actor's recent admission he beat his ex-wife.
Then, seconds after insulting her delivery, he messed up his own line: 'And Taraji is a dynamic force of nature who has the ability to steal the scenes or the words right out of your mind... sometimes out of your mouth too,' he corrected himself after glancing at the teleprompter and realising his mistake.
They didn't even get to the punchline - whatever it was - because he immediately jumped straight to the list of nominees, and Taraji seemed relieved to get there too.

Yuk: But things got even more cringey when she went to present a second award, and Terrence stopped her mid-sentence to plant a kiss on her cheek
Gross: 'Awww,' she blurted with mock sincerity, while instinctively wiping her cheek and rolling her eyes as Howard finally read the winner's name
But things got even more cringey when she went to present a second award, and Terrence stopped her mid-sentence.
'No, no,no, I will do this... I will do this, okay for one thing,' he stammered, before leaning in a planting a kiss on her cheek, which she was clearly not expecting - or sure how to react.
'Awww,' she blurted with mock sincerity, while instinctively wiping her cheek and rolling her eyes as Howard finally read the winner's name.
The exchange brought back memories of his bizarre Oscar speech back in February, when he rambled and sounded close to tears, which he later claimed was him choking after trying to learn his lines instead of reading the teleprompter.
Howard also confused people by turning up to the Emmys with his ex-wife Mira Pak, despite secretly divorcing her earlier this year.
