K, for serious... I would love me some Channing Tatum.



I don’t think that he needs an introduction, but for those who don’t know him… Let me fill you in.

He started out in the fashion industry modeling for noted clients such as Abercrombie & Fitch and Armani, later scoring campaigns with American Eagle Outfitters, Nautica and Dolce & Gabbana. He then made previews on television commercials with Mountain Dew and Pepsi and was later casted as a dancer in Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs” music video.

My crush with him, actually began in 2005 when I watched ‘Coach Carter’, he later starred in ‘She’s the Man’, ‘Step Up’ (dancing movie – LOVE!!!), ‘Stop Loss’ (love love love) and just recently he was on UFC 97 to promote his new movie ‘Fighting’…

Synopsis:
Fighting is a rough-hewn heroic tale about realizing dreams of glory, putting audience’s ringside at high-stakes underground street fights. Tatum stars as Sean Arthur, a young man who scrapes up a living hustling counterfeit merchandise in NYC. With family tragedy in his past and his father keeping him at a distance, this outsider has little to motivate him. A chance encounter with veteran street-fighting coach Harvey Boarden (Terrance Howard) leads to a whole new career for Sean. The ensuing bouts get tough, especially with the criminal element horning in, so Sean gets tougher. He will fight to win, not only the prize money but also the unexpected new relationships that are strengthening him.

I don't care how gay this movie may sound... I'm soooooooo watching it!

Another thing that I love about him, is how he linked up with his co-star from Step Up (see attached).

When I watched this movie, Derek at the time was working up north... and there's this scene where he picks her up, with the sun somewhat setting in the background, and starts spinning in circles with her in his arms... I recall saying out loud how I wanted to do that with Derek, and the girlfriends that I was with started laughing... but I was so serious!

Anyways, sorry for getting off track there... to my knowledge Jenna and Channing are still a hot item and going strong. I just hope, if they truly love each other, that they can withstand the pressures and itches that might come while working in their industry and make it just as long as Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.

Who's down to watch "Fighting" with me?!?!
