Apart from being one of the hottest heartthrobs in Hollywood, thanks to his charming looks and physique, Channing Tatum is also one of the most famous dancers in the entertainment industry. From dance musicals like the Magic Mike trilogy and Step Up to action movies like White House Down and 22 Jump Street, the 43-year-old has managed to pave his way into Hollywood and up the ladder of success.

In fact, he seems to have become successful enough to have challenged Jennifer Lopez to a bizarre fight challenge after claiming to be better than Joe Manganiello!

Channing Tatum Claims He Is ‘Better’ Than Joe Manganiello

Channing Tatum might have finished with his Magic Mike trilogy, but he definitely wasn’t done considering himself one of the best strippers of all time. Appearing on Vanity Fair‘s lie-detector test, he was asked a series of questions, with most of them related to his life as a dancer/stripper.

First off, he was faced with the question of whether he thought he could defeat his Magic Mike costar, Joe Manganiello, in a strip-off. Without missing a beat, The Vow star responded, saying,
“100%. We’re different, different classes of strippers. When you look in the dictionary next to, like, the perfect specimen of a man, probably Joe Manganiello is one of those bodies that pops up,” Tatum said, “because he’s kind of weirdly flawless. But as far as stripping goes, I would put myself above him dance-wise. Sorry, Joe.”
So, if there was ever a dance battle between Tatum and Manganiello, the former would win? We’ll leave that to the fans to decide.

Channing Tatum’s Bizarre Challenge To Jennifer Lopez

Hopping on to the next question, Tatum was then asked if he considered himself to be a better stripper than the superstar, Jennifer Lopez. However, this time he wasn’t as confident as before while answering, keeping in mind the recent stripper portrayal that the singer did in Hustlers (2019).


“Am I a better stripper than her? I’m gonna say, yeah. I would go harder if I was stripping against her,” Tatum explained. “I’m just saying, I’m gonna take it to J.Lo’s front door. You gotta go hard if you’re gonna go against the J.Lo. The love, she’s like, man, I don’t know if I’m gonna win, but I like my chances, depending on who the audience is.”
After his answer, we would like to give J.Lo. a heads up to look out, for the King of strippers might be heading her way for a dance and strip-off challenge!

Channing Tatum Called This Actor ‘A Bigger Daddy’

Channing Tatum was then asked about who’s gonna win between him, George Clooney, and Brad Pitt in a dance-off. To this, although he admitted that both Sexiest Man Alive title holders were definitely more attractive than him, he also claimed that he would easily ‘kill’ them in a dance-off.

But this one question that was asked next put him in a rather tough spot:
“Who is a bigger daddy—you or this man, Jason Momoa?”
He contemplated this question even more considering how he’s currently dating Jason Momoa‘s former step-daughter, Zoe Kravitz.
“A bigger daddy?” Tatum asked. “Well, he’s physically larger and he has more kids, so I think he’s a bigger daddy.” 
While these were only the answers from Channing Tatum’s perspectives, we’ll leave it to fans’ imaginations to decide how much of it would be 100% true.
