The actor has admitted that he's not ashamed of his strippers days because that job brought him to Hollywood. A female casting director saw him at one of these clubs, put him in Ricky Martin's 'She Bangs' music video, which led to modelling jobs, and eventually Hollywood acting jobs.

Yeah. He isn't too ashamed of it. He even recently released a movie in which he was a stripper as he'd always planned to do. He's married now and has started making it big. *Sigh*
Thats how it is man..thats how he met fame!!!..happy for him..his courage to strip..trust me..it is not easy at all..i know a lot of peeps will criticize..but its not easy at all..oshea said so!
For as long as he doesn't spring up another lousy suprise of being gay (that's d rave of d moment). Bros just peg it at being an erstwhile stripper, u've not completely skidded off d rail! *amrra*
Abegi! How convenient. Surfaced my ass! He released those pictures himself. It's just a publicity stunt to promote his new movie which happens to be...erm wait for it...a movie about Male exotic dancers. Google Magic Mike the movie

He is not ashamed becoz he is a guy!
Dis guy is cute, deyuumm!!
I still love Tatum all the same. One of the funniest actors av come across. Happy he is not ashamed of his past at least he no resemble some kind celebrity for naija e.g Goldie wey we no know their past, present and future sef. typical example of Shame to Fame.
SCANDAL IS WHAT YOU TRY TO KEEP AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC BUT LATER BLOWS UP IN YOUR FACE AND MESSES YOU UP BIG TIME. IN THIS CASE ITS NOT A SCANDAL AS HE ADMITS TO WHERE HE WAS COMING FROM AND HOW FAR WHAT HE DID BACK THEN (THOUGH NASTY) BROUGHT HIM THUS FAR TO HOLLYWOOD. A PRETTY MAN-WHORE TURNED CUTE ACTOR. NOW THAT'S A FEAT FOR HIM.
***Cheers bruv***
@willadebo

Bottom power is da truth! Check it out, Beyonce is became a worldwide sensation when she shook it on Bootylicious. Nike Oshinowo is handling millions now. Channing tatum. Kim kardashian. Tonto dike. All nollywood actresses, they will feature in one movie and buy 4 range sports the next day with a huge boutique in abuja. The money came from bottom power. Os use ur bottom power well. Ok bye
Hot then, hotter now. No wonder his booty shaking skills in the new movie was on point. Can't wait to see it
Tins ppl do to get to limelight lol...Regardless,I love his recent movie 'The Vow'. Its a must watch.
Hustle dat paid off...

He's gay , end od discussion. Ricky martins video too ? Girl pls . Gay gay gay
Lol @ Channing, he looks like Slim Shady in this photo, though it is kind of weird but like he said it brought him to stardom. Now i see where the act from the movie 21 Jump Street came from.
Kristy RyanGossling.

Abeg pass the gist!
Ojugho
...and he is making clean money now
U can try not bad idea. Daddy stripper
Gay or not gay, strippin is a job. I love watchin strippers, does any1 know where I can find a male strip joint in lagos?
Now wat does Goldie have to do with this. Nigerians really amaze me. Why so much negativity? Do you pple reaslise that linda's blog is international? And that other nationalities also read it? I'm not nigerian and I read this blog everyday. I must congratulate linda for the good job. But some of this commentators are just so bad. Well I wouldn't call it hatin coz we are all free to speak our minds. But please its not nice to put pplez privacy out. Weither true or not. Somethings are better left unsaid.
Jessica,abeg..take time explain what you mean by bottom power.I'm so lost.
sad thing is that, if it were a woman no one will commend her or say "i can imagine what pushed her to this". The comments would have been laced with insults and curses.See how people finished Amber Rose for being a stripper and even though it is her past, people still do not respect her. Women, we are our own worst enemies.Emancipate yourselves for mental slavery!Women you are EQUAL to men!
No he is not!touche!
Hell is real and heaven is real.Linda pls help spread d mssge 2 dis pple...nawaoooo
Really! People should money gotten through stripping be considered dirty money!!?
i love his eyes
What double standards! SMH. I tell u, if it was a woman dat admitted to being a stripper, believe me, she wud be gettin a lot more heat dan is being metted out to Mr Channin. In his case, its a grass to grace story. Pple evn admire him. If na woman now, she wud b labelled a whore and no one in d Hollywood movie industry wud want to touch her wit a 10foot pole. Puhliz, let's call a spade a spade. d guy na former ashi jor tscheew. Don't get me wrong, I'm hapi for him o, Its just so annoyin dat women have such a hard time.
Hmm..hahaha..drz smeting abt diz pikcha...it jst lukz funnily weird...bt i hv always lvd channing since his stepup dayz ..dat wont change...#CHOKOLATA#..dats wassup!
@anon, where did u c gay? Pls put on ur glasses cos wat is written there is cos he is a guy and not gay. #corrupt minds
What's d news here?...........
