Channing Tatum felt like he was attending "a clown show" during his days as a stripper

The movie star - who played a stripper in the Magic Mike film franchise - said on The Drew Barrymore Show: "I actually stripped for real in Florida. Back then it was ... It's just a whole different thing.

"It's not the greatest world. It is so misogynistic. If anything, you're kind of, almost like it's a clown show. You're almost embarrassing the woman on stage."

Drew later asked Channing how he managed to be "such a good guy while being this hot". The talk-show host also described the actor as "the complete package" - but Channing was quick to downplay the suggestion.

The actor - who was married to actress Jenna Dewan between 2009 and 2019 - replied: "I don't know about that. Look, there's a lot of exes that you could talk to that definitely would disagree with that."

Meanwhile, Channing recently claimed that movie studios are "confused".

The actor believes streaming platforms have transformed the film industry, and Channing thinks movie studios are now unsure of where to turn next.

He told Variety: "This whole thing is upside down right now. The streamers came in and e****-up the industry a bit - for good and for bad. The studios are confused; the streamers are confused."

Channing explained that streaming companies are paying more money upfront than studios, and the new landscape is having a huge impact on the film industry more broadly.

Channing - who is one of the biggest names in Hollywood - explained: "You're incentivising me to go make a subpar movie - a B script, a programmer that isn't special."

The actor also revealed that White House Down, his 2013 action movie, was a turning point in his own career.

Channing explained that he's subsequently looked for a wider variety of movie roles.

He said: "With Dear John and The Vow, I became that guy, and Jump Street rescued me out of that. But now I'm the Jump Street guy. After I did White House Down, I told my managers, 'If I have a gun in my hand, don't send it to me.'"
