ILOSM fam,’ in case y’all haven’t heard by now, there’s a hilarious Terrence Howard roasting session trending all over social media. Why are they clowning the Empire actor, you ask? Because of his usage of the word “Mayne” as in ‘man,’ in damn near every role he’s portrayed throughout the years. Well, that and the one request that was posted on Twitter a few days ago: “Someone photoshop Terrence Howard as a Jedi,” which has now sparked an international Terrence Howard “mayne” meme craze.

Although T. Howard is a phenomenal actor, like many other great actors, he has certain signature traits that always pop through in his characters. It doesn’t matter if he’s playing the villain, ‘Lucious Lyon,’ the slick best friend in The Best Man, or the hustlin’ pimp in Hustle & Flow….
There is bound to be his catchphrase ‘mayne’ thrown up in the mix at some point.

Terrence Howard Responds To The “Mayne” Memes
T. Howard has also responded to the “mayne” craze, with a very non-Lucious-like reaction. He didn’t get offended by the many people picking on his over-usage of the word “mayne,” he instead decided to join in with jokes of his own. In a rare Instagram moment, Terrence actually surfaced with a video of his own, holding his favorite instrument his guitar- while repeatedly saying an almost incoherent sentence, using “mayne” several times to get his point across. Even though we still don’t understand what the hell he’s talking about in the video, it was still cool to watch. Check out Terrence Howard’s response below…

It’s a good thing Howard took this all in stride and didn’t let “Lucious Lyon” take control of his emotions in real life. If that were the case, we’d all have to watch our backs right about now, LOL.
