*Gossip blogger Janet Charlton wrote Wednesday that Terrence Howard was flirting so shamelessly with his co-presenter at the ALMA awards that producers were forced to reshoot the entire segment.
According to Charlton, the actor and Mexican actress Angelica Vale were supposed to exchange small talk and simply read the teleprompter before announcing the nominees and winner of the category.
Instead, Howard made things awkward by "flirting and asking her questions that got her blushing and flustered," wrote Charlton. "He ended up adlibbing that he'd like her phone number. They eventually got around to presenting the award, but shortly after that the producers, citing 'technical difficulties,' insisted on reshooting the presentation.
"They spoke to Terrence backstage and on his second try he stuck to the script verbatim. No flirting."
The edited version will air when the show is broadcast Sept. 12 on ABC.
