Howard Learns Pimpin' From Affleck & Cooney

TERRENCE HOWARD (pictured with Gayle King, Morgan Freeman, Will Smith & Jamie Foxx in an Oprah exclusive) is receiving dating advice from some other Hollywood pros. The actor, nominated for an Oscar for his performance in Hustle and Flow, has been heeding the info regarding his personal life. The Crash star says he deals with his new-found fame by "taking really great advice from Ben Affleck and George Clooney." He explains, "They say, 'It's all right here in front of you - you can have your pick (of women). "You'll sleep with somebody and you won't tell nobody about it. "But if you sleep with a woman, she'll tell everyone she knows.'" On Howard's busy slate this year are PDR (Philadelphia Dept. of Recreation) with Bernie Mac; August Rush with Robin Williams; and The Brave One opposite Jodie Foster. Oh, and he celebrates a birthday this month on the 11th.
