[edit] Trivia
- Terrance Howard was to perform the Oscar-nominated song "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" at the Oscars, but he declined. The writers of the song Jordan Houston, Paul Beauregard, of Three Six Mafia and (Frayser Boy) Cedric Coleman decided to perform the song along with Howard's co-star Taraji P. Henson instead. The group won an Oscar for Academy Award for Best Song making them the first African American hip-hop group to win one. They also appeared in the movie.
