The ‘Haywire’ premiere was full of man-candy, but Michael Fassbender wasn’t there!

I can’t even begin to describe how depressed I am this morning. When I was first looking through the morning photos, my heart skipped a beat when I saw that the LA premiere of Haywire was held last night. That could only mean one thing: My Fassy. Michael Fassbender has a supporting role in the Steven Soderbergh film, which stars Gina Carano as a Jason Bourne-esque CIA operative who goes rogue after the agency tries to kill her. Fassbender plays the hit man who is first assigned to take her out. It does not end well for him, unfortunately. Anyway, Fassy wasn’t there. SON OF A…! There are no photos of The Beast Within. He was probably off somewhere, wrecking some lucky bitch’s sweetshop.

So we’re left with this assortment of dongs. It’s a decent gathering of dudes, but I’m still disappointed. I’m including photos of Ewan McGregor and his wife Eve, who… look, I’m sure Eve is a lovely woman, she’s raising four girls out of the spotlight, and Ewan seems to just adore her. BUT HER HAIR. Good God. Meanwhile, Ewan is a vampire. He’s 40 years old! He could pass for late 20s.

Here’s Channing Tatum and Gina Carano. Gina’s dress is lovely – I like that she got all decked out for her first big premiere for her first starring role. Also: Channing is HUGE. Jesus.

Channing with his wife Jenna Dewan. I think Jenna is a really pretty girl, in that cute girl-next-door way. I don’t like her hair either, though.

Matt Bomer was there, for no reason than he likes wearing suits, I guess. He’s so pretty, it hurts.

Melanie Griffith… I don’t even know. No comment.

Joe Manganiello – random beefcake. He looks nice here, though. He and Bomer are tight, so maybe they had a boys’ night out to support Soderbergh, who they both worked with on that male-stripper movie. Based on Channing Tatum’s early years. Joe is playing Big Dick Richie, just FYI.

Dominic Monaghan – random Hobbit.

Former stripper Channing Tatum to strip for Steven Soderburgh movie

fp_6493164_dilemma_premiere_bry_28_31

Despite appearances, I am slowly coming to realize that Channing Tatum is something of an anomaly. While I’ve admittedly found him rather bland as an actor (probably due to a few lackluster choices like Dear John), the man does give good interview and seems to have a good attitude about the fact that people are rather unkind towards him. After all, he can manage to joke about his rumored missing chromosome (“I don’t know, could be true”) and talk at length about the painful memory of that time his penis almost got burned off. Also, he very deftly handles questions about his (NSFW) year as stripper Chan Crawford, which has to be just a little bit embarrassing. Now, just as Tatum’s preparing to appear in 21 Jump Street movie reboot, news comes down the pike that Tatum will be re-living his stripper days in a Steven Soderbergh movie:

First off, Steven Soderbergh does still plan to step away from directing with more or less the same timeline, however he’s a workhorse and seeing another interesting project cross his desk–luckily for us–he’s decided to squeeze in one more picture onto his schedule.

The director plans to team with Channing Tatum, who stars in Soderbergh’s forthcoming “Haywire,” on the actor’s passion project “Magic Mike.” The film is one Tatum has been talking about making for a while now, as it’s an autobiographical tale about his young days as a stripper. Way back in early 2010, Tatum talked about the project and at the time had another helmer in mind saying, “I’ve already got the director picked out. I’d like Nicolas Refn, who did the movie ‘Bronson,’ to do it because he’s insane for it. It needs to be a crazy film and I think it’s also possible to do a cute, romantic movie.” Obviously, in the time that has since passed, Tatum hooked up with Soderbergh and the two seem to have hit it off smashingly.

The story will find Tatum playing the titular character, who teaches a younger dancer how to hustle his wares on stage and off, and it’s inspired by the actor’s own experiences. “This was a wild and pivotal time in my life and I couldn’t be more thrilled to go down the rabbit hole with Steven,” Tatum said in a statement obtained by Deadline.

“When Channing talked to me about this, I thought it was one of the best ideas I’d ever heard for a movie,” Soderbergh said in a statement. “I said I wanted in immediately. It’s sexy, funny and shocking. We’re using ‘Saturday Night Fever’ as our model, so hopefully we’re on the right track.”

We’ve been told that the film will be a low budget affair, not quite as lean as the production of “The Girlfriend Exprience,” but likely coming in with a $6-7 million pricetag. The script will be penned by Reid Carolin who will also produce alongside Nick Wechsler, Gregory Jacobs and Tatum. “Magic Mike” will be taken to buyers next month at Cannes for foreign pre-sales where as part of the presentation a teaser cut by Soderbergh will be shown featuring Tatum. And lensing on this will begin very soon with a September/October shoot in the works.

[From The Playlist]

LMAO. Are they totally serious about using Saturday Night Fever as a template? This could be a complete disaster in the making, and considering how Soderberg made The Girlfriend Experience a boring movie despite the fact that it starred porn star Sasha Grey, well, I don’t have really high hopes for a great film here. Still, Tatum really has the stripper moves, and I find it quite interesting that Tatum can turn on the charm for interviews and on the red carpet, but he’s a real wet blanket (see below) when getting papped. He should, you know, dance for the cameras at all times like he did as Chan Crawford. Here’s that NSFW video again, by the way. Nice socks!

Johnny Depp confirmed for ’21 Jump Street’ reboot cameo

deppsheath13

Johnny Depp is not only a talented actor with incredible screen presence, but he’s also an all-around swell guy who seems very open (relatively speaking) to the suggestions of others. While I wish that we could somehow talk him out of his latest wang-sheath fashion craze, that’s probably not possible, so we’ll have to settle for the fact that Depp has twice spoken of the fact that he’s “absolutely” open to doing a cameo in the “21 Jump Street” reboot and would definitely do it if it’s offered. Well, the offer has arrived, and Depp has now been confirmed for said cameo of the Jonah Hill-scripted movie:

It looks like Jonah Hill has gotten his wish. ComingSoon.net has confirmed that Johnny Depp will indeed have a small cameo role in Columbia Pictures’ 21 Jump Street, which is now filming for a March 16, 2012 release.

To be directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), the big screen adaptation stars Hill, Channing Tatum, Ice Cube, Brie Larson, Rob Riggle, DeRay Davis, Dave Franco and Jake Johnson.

Based on the Fox series that ran from 1987 to 1991, the movie will center on two undercover cops (Hill and Tatum), who are assigned to work in schools. Cube is playing the police chief and Larson is the female lead.

Hill had previously said that they had written a “really funny” cameo for Depp and was hopeful that he would do it.

[From Coming Soon]

Yes, the reboot (like virtually all others) will probably suck (since it stars the interchangeable Channing Tatum and the by-now-ridiculous Ice Cube, why wouldn’t it?), but I think it’s great that Depp has confirmed that he’ll be making an appearance. Lots of actors in his position would probably think they’re just beyond backtracking a few decades to revisit the franchise that made their name, but Johnny is totally down with this sort of thing:

He was so fine back in the day, wasn’t he? Although I’m wondering whether Depp will reprise his former television show character or if they’ll just plop him into the movie in a very unexpected manner. Whatever the case, the alleged “funny” nature of the cameo will once again prove that Depp can make light of himself and is perfectly willing to do so. In fact, he does so regularly by playing such eccentric characters like his most famous to date, Jack Sparrow, a role that (as we’re all quite aware by now) he’ll reprise very soon in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides. By the way, here’s that movie’s latest promotional television spot.

Channing Tatum’s mostly clothed GQ photo shoot: still hot, or still a caveman?

0311-gq-noupc_med-res

As I mentioned earlier this morning, I am a fan of Channing Tatum. Not his work specifically, but him as a person. I think he’s funny and sweet and very much like the good ol’ boys hustlers I grew up with. Anyway, there’s a special treat for those of us who like him – he’s the March cover boy for GQ Magazine! He’s done GQ before – he was their cover boy in 2009, where he posed shirtless in nearly every shot. In this cover shoot, they let him keep on his clothes for the most part. BOO. GQ hasn’t released their interview yet, but they did send us this little preview, and I can safely say that Channing sounds like he gave yet another great interview. The boy just does his thing, and he has no qualms about spending 24 hours with a journalist and getting hammered:

Channing Tatum has to be one of America’s most fun movie stars, he’s also crazy (it’s his life motto). Don’t believe us? Just ask Jessica Pressler, our writer who spent twenty-four hours deep in the California Desert with “Chan” armed with glow sticks, tequila, snacks, and Snuggies.

Before camping out together (don’t worry, he called his wife first!), the pair spent the night bar hopping through a tiny mining town, mingling with the locals, and touring the area’s abandoned bordellos.

During their journey, Tatum opened up about his stint as a stripper, “I’m not ashamed of it. I don’t regret one thing. I’m not a person who hides sh*t”; being type casted as a beefcake, “No one’s calling me for lawyer roles. I still have a lot to prove to myself”; and why doing his own stunts is important, “I think people pay money to see the actor go through a wall. I want to be like, ‘Holy sh*t, Johnny Depp actually jumped off that building. That guy’s f*cking crazy. I want to be him.’”

[From GQ]

Yes, he probably won’t be cast as a lawyer anytime soon. But it may happen eventually. And hey, it’s not so bad being a beefcake. Lots of male actors would love Channing’s reputation as an easy-going beefcake steadily building his resume. Hey, Channing just worked with Ron Howard! And now he’s starring as a Roman something in ancient times. So, it’s not like he’s only getting parts where he plays the dim-witted dancer boy. I would like Channing to do more comedy, honestly – he’s so funny in interviews, it would be interesting to see him steadily build a comedic portfolio.

Oh, and he’s totally going on HGF this week!

Channing Tatum on his missing chromosome: “I don’t know, could be true”

wenn3157697

I know there isn’t a lot of love for Channing Tatum amongst true dong connoisseurs. It’s true, Channing often comes across like a meathead, and he isn’t cultured or suave or dashing like, say, Jon Hamm or Michael Fassbender. But I still really like Channing. He reminds me so, so much of the good ol’ boys I grew up with (and still live around). And honestly, Channing is one of the South’s better specimens. He’s sweet-natured, humble, and he always come across as an incredibly decent guy. He’s so the guy who would buy me a beer because I seemed like a “fancy city gal” because I‘m the only girl not wearing flip-flops in the bar – for real, that’s happened to me many times in my beloved South. Good ol’ boys associate no flip-flops and a not-so-pronounced Southern accent as a “fancy city gal”.

Anyway, Channing has a new movie out - The Eagle, which isn’t doing so well at the box office. I wish they would let Channing do more interviews to promote the movie, because he gives AMAZING interviews. He’s really chilled-out and unexpectedly hilarious. In this one, with New York Magazine, Channing covers all of the hot topics: homoerotism (“Jamie Bell and I have a bromance. We’ve been having sex for a few years now”), his alleged missing chromosome (“I read on IMDb one time that I’m missing a chromosome or something. Which, I don’t know, could be true.”) and his old life as a stripper (“It was a crazy time in my life. Young and crazy and in Tampa.”). LMAO, I want “Young and crazy and in Tampa” to be my epitaph.

In The Eagle, there are two male leads but no female love interests. Would you say there’s a homoerotic element to the film?
Well there are swords, and two guys are sword fighting. There’s a metaphor there I’m sure. And back in the Roman day I think it was probably more accepted than it is now. But there’s none in the movie. Me and [director Kevin Macdonald] talked a lot before we started filming: There is no love story in the movie, but it’s a relationship movie for sure.

There’s been a lot of buzz about the master-slave relationship going on there. Seems a little BDSM.
I think Jamie had a lot of fun having me as a slave. I don’t think I took advantage of it like I should have when he was my slave. But Jamie, yeah — he abused me. So maybe there was some frustration coming out a little bit here and there.

But would you say there’s a bromance aspect to it? They need each other even though they resent each other — that’s the basis for a lot of love stories.
I think there’s love in any relationship, whether it’s between a man and a woman, an animal and a person. Look, you have a need to be understood, humans gather around each other and they need to help each other through things. Jamie’s character and my character through trial by fire had to figure out how to understand each other. So I guess you could call it a bromance.

How about in real life?
Jamie and I have a bromance. We’ve been having sex for a few years now.

How’s that going?
Going fantastic.

He’s a lot smaller than you. He’s really small.
He’s a goer though.

What’s a goer?
I don’t know. I just made it up.

So you went to Sundance last month with the corrupt-cop movie The Son of No One. How was it?
It went good. I know there was some discrepancy and a little bit of bad mud being slung at certain actors. I think it was all unwarranted. I think Katie [Holmes] is an amazing actress.

Did you see The Hollywood Reporter article that said there were walkouts?
I try not to read it. It kinda hurts, man, sometimes, so I try not to read ’em. It can literally turn your head inside out. It’ll make you the most insecure person on the planet. And actors are probably already the most insecure people on the planet. Adding fuel to the fire probably will not help.

Why so insecure?
You know people, if they don’t like you — you’re opening up in a sort of way, putting your shit out there. If people take a big ol’ shit on it, it hurts a little bit.

Ever read anything about you that’s ever made you feel that way?
I read on IMDb one time that I’m missing a chromosome or something. Which, I don’t know, could be true.

Like missing which chromosome?
That’s all I read before I was like, “Oh my God, I gotta stop” and pulled the ripcord. It’s all dangerous reading those message boards. I went on there to try to remember the name of a costume designer that I worked with and I scrolled down for a second and was just like no, no, no, no, no, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad.

That kind of thing can get addictive for some people.
It’s human nature; we want to see destruction. We know that bodies are gonna be everywhere and it’s gonna be carnage.

Speaking of carnage, how is your burned penis? Everything healed?
It’s great. I’m back on top. No scarring, nothing. That part of your body is very regenerative.

Were you scared?
You should burn your privates and see how scared you are. I’m not even kidding. It’s by far one of the most painful things I’ve ever been through. That’s your man, that’s your dude, that’s your guy. I’ve had a longer relationship with him than I have with my parents.

It’s admirable that you were so eager to talk about it so publicly and openly.
Thanks, man. Look, I know people are gonna want to know, so the best thing I know how to do is literally to overtalk about it so that people are tired of talking about it.

There you go. That’s smart. Do you do that with anything else?
Obviously the stripping thing. But it’s kind of old news. Everyone wants to talk about it but they all keep saying the same thing. It was a crazy time in my life. Young and crazy and in Tampa.

[From New York Magazine]

I just love the guy. Nothing fazes him! If Naomi Campbell or Russell Crowe had been asked these kinds of questions, the interviewed would be hospitalized because a cell phone had been shoved up his ass. I also love that he defends his costars, no matter what. Katie Holmes gets Channing’s stamp of approval, for what it’s worth. And Jamie Bell is a “goer” – a great non-defense. God, I adore him.

Channing Tatum in talks to star in 21 Jump Street movie with Jonah Hill

fp_5563493_tatum_dewan_fp6_
Remember 21 Jump Street, that late 80s hot cop show starring Johnny Depp? It aired when I was in high school and I only watched it occasionally despite all the eye candy. It featured Depp, Peter DeLuise, Holly Robinson and Dustin Nguyen as undercover narcotics agents who would infiltrate high schools. (You can still watch it on Hulu if you’re in the US. I tried to watch an episode and it just seemed so dated to me.) We’ve heard for some time that there’s a 21 Jump Street film coming with Jonah Hill attached. Now there’s news that beefcake Channing Tatum is in talks to co-star. This could be good:

johnny-depp-21-jump-street2EXCLUSIVE: Channing Tatum has jumped to the top of the list for the lead of Sony Pictures’s 21 Jump Street. I’m told that Tatum will soon be in negotiations to star alongside Jonah Hill. Production will begin in the spring. Based on the 1987 Stephen J. Cannell series that was one of the Fox Network’s early successes and launched Johnny Depp, the movie was scripted by Michael Bacall based on a story he hatched with Hill. The film will be directed by Cloudy with the Chance of Meatballs helmers Phil Lord and Chris Miller. I’m told that the studio has met with a bunch of potential leading men and that Tatum and Hill matched up well. Both look youthful, which helps since the film is about undercover officers who infiltrate schools to fight crime. UTA-repped Tatum’s creating some pre-release buzz for his comic turn as the other man in the Ron Howard-directed The Dilemma, which Universal released on January 14. He’ll follow in a dramatic turn as a Roman soldier trying to reclaim his family honor in the Kevin Macdonald-directed The Eagle for Focus Features.

[From Deadline Hollywood]

Just last week I watched Dear John and was practically swooning over how gorgeous Channing is. With him and Amanda Seyfried on screen together it’s like there was too much prettiness to bear. He’s a decent actor and I’d love to see him do comedy. It’s hard to tell whether this film will hit the mark, but since I’m not attached to the series I’m not worried that they won’t do it justice. It could be a fun reboot and I’d love to see more of Tatum. We might get a Johnny Depp cameo as well – Depp told MTV last year that he would “absolutely” do a cameo and that it would be “hilarious.”

Here are a bunch of shirtless pictures of Channing in Italy with his new wife Jenna Dewan on 7/16/10. He’s also shown in the header on 8/10/10. Jonah Hill is shown out with his girlfriend Jordan Klein on 9/2/10. Credit: Fame Pictures. Inset image via Pynk Celebrity

Amanda Seyfried is “subtle to a fault” with her boobs out

wenn2731047

What’s the verdict on Amanda Seyfried? I usually come down thinking she’s a very talented and underrated actress who seems to be a pretty sweet girl in real life. I also think she looks like a young Uma Thurman, and I mean that as a compliment – I think it’s those huge, hypnotic eyes. But other than that stuff, I don’t really know her, or have strong feelings one way or the other. I do have strong feelings about this dress, however. I feel very strongly that Amanda should get a new stylist, someone who won’t put Amanda in a dress that makes her lovely boobs look like they’re cooped up behind a mesh screen.

Anyway, here are Amanda and Channing Tatum at the premiere of their new film together, Dear John. By all accounts, Dear John is a weepy melodrama about a college student (Amanda) who falls in love with a dude (Channing) on leave from active-duty. When he goes back to war (Afghanistan? Iraq? I don’t know), their relationship ebbs and flows through the written word.

Amanda Seyfried says audiences will need to have plenty of tissues handy when Dear John hits UK cinemas. At the Hollywood premiere for the romantic drama, the actress said crying in the cinema isn’t something we should be ashamed of.

“It’s good, you need it,” she told reporters on the red carpet. “I think [if it's] a love story, as sad as it can be, it brings something really good out of everybody that sees something in that.”

In the film, the Mamma Mia! actress plays a college student who falls for a soldier (played by Channing Tatum) while he’s home on leave.

“It was pretty realistic, it was dealing with things that I remember going through,” she explained. “Everything was being touched on in this movie. Everything that was surrounding the love story was real, things that needed having attention drawn to them.”

Amanda said working with Channing had been “amazing”.

“He’s awesome, he’s the most fun co-star I’ve ever had in my life,” she said.

[From The Press Association]

Even though this is a rare starring role for Amanda, she hasn’t been giving very many interviews to promote this film, from what I can tell. She did sit down with Teen Hollywood to try to get the younger kids to see the film, I suppose. I think of them now as “the Twihard demographic”. And honestly, this film might appeal to them. The interview is supremely boring (full piece here), but one answer Amanda gave cracked me up. She was asked about the melodrama in the film, and Amanda replies: “No. The funny thing is, I’ve always been subtle to a fault. I like to be more thoughtful. I’ve always found that some of the words in some of the scripts just kind of get in the way depending upon how things are written. This was a really good script and written well…I wasn’t really scared about slipping into melodrama too much. I think the moments where it is kind of overly-sentimental, are okay. You’ve got to have a little bit.” Who describes themselves as “subtle to a fault”? For goodness sake.

Here’s the trailer for Dear John:

Channing Tatum talks about the time his penis was almost burned off

channing6

Oh. My. God. Channing Tatum came very close to losing his penis, or part of his penis, or losing function in his penis. This is because of really, really disturbing incident that happened on the set of Tatum’s new film The Eagle of the Ninth. Now… I like Channing. I think he seems like a really sweet kid, and he photographs beautifully, as you can see from the Details cover for February (which is where this particular penis story comes from, full Details article here). I swear, I actually winced when I read this story, so just be careful. Don’t eat anything while reading this:

“Channing Tatum Is Proud of His Package,” declares the February issue of Details. And he should be.

In the issue, the actor, 29, opens up about surviving a painful accident that caused severe burns to his penis. He had been shooting the drama The Eagle of the Ninth last October in the freezing cold Scottish Highlands.

“The only way to keep warm was by pouring a mix of boiling water and river water down your suit,” Tatum, 29, tells the magazine. “We were finally done shooting for the day, and one of the crew guys asks if I want to warm up before I go. I’m like, Nah, I’m good. And then I thought, Why not?

“Thing is, he’d forgotten to dilute the kettle water,” he continues. “So he poured scalding water down my suit. And I was trying to pull the suit away from my body to somehow get away from the boiling water, and the more I pulled the suit away, the lower the water went. It just went straight down and pretty much burned the skin off the head of my dick.”

He was rushed to the nearest hospital — an hour away. On the way, however, the ice pack he was applying to the burn lost its chill.

“I said to the driver, who was ex-special-forces Marines, ‘You might have to knock me out, because I don’t know if I can take the pain. Just grab something and hit me on the back of my head,’” he recalls.

Morphine eventually did the trick, he says, but it was still embarrassing.

“I had five guys looking at my shriveled, burned penis,” he says.

Looking back, he says, “It was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life.”
Rest assured, “I’m good . . . now,” says Tatum, a former stripper. “Now my penis is fantastic! One hundred percent recovered. Put me back in the game, Coach.”

[From Us Weekly]

It’s totally gross, right? And what kind of jackass crew member says “I’m going to pour scalding hot water on the star of this film”? A jackass who should fired. Can you even imagine if something like this had happened to some big star? There would be hell to pay. It’s kind of shocking that this is the first we’re hearing of it. Poor Channing. Poor penis. Do you think he needed a skin graft? How would you even begin…? Nevermind, I don’t want to know.

By the way, is anyone else getting an Ewan McGregor vibe off these photos?

Billy Elliott got hot, shirtless

eagleninthheader
Remember that cute little kid in the heartwarming British movie Billy Elliot from 2000? He got hot! Jaime Bell is all of 23 now so I don’t feel guilty drooling over this photo from an upcoming film that shows him hot, sweaty, shirtless and dirty in low-rider pants. It’s those lower abs that are doing it for me. (I’m not of the “any guy over 18″ mindset, I’m in my mid 30s so they have to be at least 21.)

In Eagle of the Ninth Bell stars as a second century slave to a Roman army leader played by Channing Tatum. Tatum’s character comes to Scotland to help his dad (Donald Sutherland) solve a mystery of a missing legion of troops. I’m sure the film will have plenty of hot guys fighting, but sadly only Bell, not Tatum, is shirtless in the stills now available.

The Eagle of the Ninth is set in the dangerous world of second-century Britain. In 140 AD, twenty years after the unexplained disappearance of the entire Ninth Legion in the mountains of Scotland, young centurion Marcus Aquila (Tatum) arrives from Rome to solve the mystery and restore the reputation of his father, the commander of the Ninth. Amongst all the drama, he meets and is accompanied by a British slave named Esca, who will be played by Bell, while Sutherland will come into the picture as Marcus’ uncle Aquila, who has retired in Britain.

[From Screencrave]

I couldn’t find a trailer for this movie yet. Eagle of the Ninth is out sometime next year and has no specific release date listed on IMDB. Note to producers: there’s still more time to work in footage of shirtless guys.

Since starring as Billy Elliot, Jaime Bell has had roles in King Kong, Flags of Our Fathers, and Jumper. He’s shown below at the UK premiere of Defiance on 1/6/09 with Liev Schreiber and Daniel Craig.

Thanks to Huffington Post for the heads up!

Jenna Dewan on her husband Channing Tatum’s stripper past: I love it!

wenn2009302
Last week we saw video of newlywed GI Joe star Channing Tatum, 29, stripping at the age of 18 in an all-male revue in Florida. Channing went by the name of “Chan Crawford” when he worked his stuff for the screaming ladies, wagging his ass in an backless thong and giving lap dances. I wondered at the time if Channing’s new wife, actress Jenna Dewan, 28, new about her husband’s sordid past.

Jenna recently told a paparazzo that not only did she know that Channing used to be a stripper, but she sort-of confirmed that she gets to benefit from his moves at home. Lucky girl:

Photographer: Recently it was reported that Channing used to be a stripper.
Jenna: I love Chan Crawford. [Channing's stripper name]
Photographer: Does he ever give you private dances?
Jenna: What do you think?
Photographer: If you’re a regular married couple he does.
Jenna: Of course.

[Transcribed from video on TMZ]

One person wondered in the comments on our earlier story whether it was sexist to act like it’s no big deal that a man was a stripper while the same career choice was stigmatizing for a woman. It seems like there’s a difference between the two though, with women more likely to be involved in the seedier aspects of adult entertainment just based on demand. Maybe me even making that assumption is sexist, though. Most of you didn’t seem to care, and thought that Channing was either hot, or a little dorky gyrating in that video (below) with his socks on. His wife is relishing it, and says she gets a piece of that at home whenever she wants. Would a famous guy say the same if their wife used to be a stripper? Probably not, but that might have more to do with public opinion about women stripping than their feelings on the matter.
