Taraji P. Henson says she's given up on men in the US, now looking abroad

43 year old Oscar nominated actress Taraji P Henson got very candid in her interview in the April issue of Upscale magazine, which she covers. Talking about her dating life, the mother of one who has never been married, said;
Here’s the deal. I’m no spring chicken. I’m not in my 20s dating around. I’m looking for happily ever after. So, once you get clear on what it is you’re looking for, the pickings are slim, honey. I’ve left the whole continent of North America. I'm looking abroad"
Lol @ looking abroad. I agree with her. If you want to date around there's so many options. But when you are looking to settle down...the pickings are really really slim. Abi, single ladies?

  6. True linda,but in all honesty relatipnships and marriage is all about compromise. If u have a fixed mindset of your"Mr right", then u are sitting on a long thing honey, cs they aint nothing like Mr right.

  7. Its the grace of God.
    attitude, personality, responsibility and commitment all counts to settle down for marriage and most of all ENDURANCE is he master key to relationships and marriage so if you ain't up for this don't even bother looking for one.

    2. In 20years time you'll still be single or probably a single mother. It is mostly "Third Class" products or girls who didn't even see the walls of a tertiary institution that keep searching for foolishly like you. Village Hustler.

  10. No need for her to be looking, men are sold in the market, and they are not expensive, she should go and buy one and marry

  30. Some people who are even married are still sneaking around for extras, so the game is quite hard for all. Its only easy for those who are desparate and dont mind settling for less and those who wan turn blind eye to all the rubbish their spouse dey do to them.

  34. LINDA YOU KNOW YOU ARE JUST SETTING THIS LADY UP TO BE INSULTED HERE. YOU KNOW YOUR BLOG VISITORS ARE SHALLOW-MINDED, NAIVE, HYPOCRITICAL AND HOLY-HOLY. ALL THEY KNOW HOW TO DO IS INSULT PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING BETTER THAN THEM. AND THIS YOUR KIND OF QUESTION ONLY CREATE AN AVENUE FOR INSULT. ANYWAYS, I DON TALK MY OWN. LET'S WATCH AND SEE HOW THEY REACT. IT IS WELL!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Yes o,especially with men of these days acting like they're God just because they are proposing marriage chai! women done suffer in this world sha

    ReplyDelete
  36. Taraji is one of those black American actress that I admire,respect and love with passion,she is a howard graduate and all that..fell in love with her in the movie "think like a man and act like a lady" and also "family that preys"..... I agree with her, plz port outside if men from the same locality with you aren't meeting up with your expectations... The reason why most Nigerian women are continously cheated on and manhandled is because an average Nigerian woman especially the "Igbos" limits their availability to only those in the same ethnicity with them....Even me sef I hv given up on Nigerian men,the likes of tchidi chikere I can't deal...I like America,the land of the brave and free! A place where if you cheat on your wife,you lose half of your assets and when you abuse your wife,you would be thrown inside the jail before you can prounounce "jack robinson"....#Cheezyjayne

    1. Your shallow-mentality will keep you single for more ages to come. How about American women who cheat on their spouse? How about Nigerian women who are happily married? Ever thought about that?

  65. @Dike, not in America. She's in the game as long as she's alive. There's no expiration date on her vialibility in the market so long as she draws breath. Her prince can come tomorrow or when she's 60. It's all good as long as she's happy.

  68. Yes for settling, the pickings are slim because you have to love yourself and pick someone who will be your PARTNER in every sense of the word, not your boss, your baby, your teacher, your destroyer (in some cases)
    But what I have noticed with the African American folk is some [yes hater, I said some] of them are too hard headed and its hard for a man to take it and they talk way too much

    ReplyDelete
  69. I read somewhere a while back that Taraji is a nothing-but-a-black-man kind of sister. This won't help her. She should consider expanding her pool of potential suitors beyond her African American community and I am sure that she will find that the pickings are not slim. There are many good men from other races and black men of non-US descent that are resident in the US; she should consider giving them a chance.
