Let's talk about one of my Idol
named Channing Matthew Tatum, an American Actor, Dancer, Model and Producer. He
was born in Cullman, Alabama, United States 34 years ago. The eldest son of Kay
an airline worker and Glenn Tatum who worked in construction. He has only a
younger sister named Paige. His family moved to Mississippi when he was six. He
lived in a rural setting, near the Mississippi River. He was so
athletic. As a child he practiced Wuzuquan Kung Fu. When he was a
teenager, he spent most of teenage years in Tampa area, and loved playing
football, soccer, track, baseball, and performing martial arts. At the
beginning he attended Gaither High School before his parents gave him the
option, of either choosing a private High School or attending a military
School. He then gladly chose a private high school and entered Tampa Catholic
High School, where he graduated in 1998 and was voted as the most athletic
student. Afterward, he decided to enter a public college Glenville State
College on a football scholarship but unfortunately he dropped out. He came
home then started working as a roofer but after several months, someone offered
him a job as a stripper in a night club and worked there. After a month working
as a stripper, he moved to Miami and worked as a model then soon moved into
television commercials, and then acting caught him.
He got the first cast as a dancer in
Ricky Martin's music video and was paid 400 dollars for doing that. And soon he
dealt to play in movies. His first movie was titled She's The Man. He played as
a boy named Duke Orsino. He played a lot of characters in many movies
afterward. In a movie titled, Step Up, he met Jenna Dewan, his co-star there
and they got married in 2009. In 2012 he appeared in four different movies. An
action movie Haywire, a romantic movie The vow, action comedy 21 Jump Street
that he was offered by Jonah Hill, an American Comedian, Actor and Filmmaker
to play as a cop Greg Jenko who does undercover and the film was success and
passed through Box Office then the sequel released in 2014 titled 22 Jump
Street, and the most unpredictable movie, Magic Mike where was inspired by his
experience when he was a stripper. He also was being a co-producer there.
Channing Tatum is a family lover and
a family man for sure. He loves his parents a lot, mostly his mom. A young Chan
was a wild child but as time goes by he turns to be a real man. He ever mentioned
that his modeling career has helped him a lot in specifying his life. And he
said in a magazine, “It's made my life, and my family's life, a lot easier,
because I never knew what I wanted to do and now they don't really have to
worry about me anymore. I've been able to explore life, and through exploring
it I've found that I love art, I love writing, I love acting, I love all the
things that make sense to me. And I've been given the chance to go out and see
the world, and to see all the things out there. Not everyone gets that chance.”
That’s why I love Channing!
