Channing Tatum’s body in Magic Mike is, to put it in medical terms, crazy. The franchise, which began in 2012 and is roughly based on Tatum’s own experiences before making it in Hollywood, has always used a series of obscenely taut men to sell itself. Now, Tatum is giving the world a bit of insight into what it actually takes to look that way and, spoiler, it’s “not natural.” In a segment on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the pretend Chippendale talked about his hesitation in signing on to the third installment of the series, Magic Mike’s Last Dance, because the diet and training regimen is unhealthy.
