tlamOwen’s is not asked to join the other cast of Think Like A Man for Essence magazine. Owens stays he never thought it was a racially motivated:

You know what, I didn’t even think nothing of it, until it got brought to my attention and it’s very rare that all of us guys have been including in everything like whether it’s an interview or a magazine.Like, the last movie was Micheal, Taraji and Kevin and that wasn’t a big deal, it just happened that they wanted five guys, and that’s the five they chose and I was fine with it because magazines know their readers better than I do. I didn’t look at it like a racial thing, I just looked at it like, ‘Okay, that’s who caters to their readers.
