He might be a native of Florida these days, but Channing Tatum has never hidden his Alabama roots. In fact, when you see him pictured in the press, he's often wearing University of Alabama sports gear. You can take the boy out of Alabama, but you can never take the Alabama out of the boy. He's come a long way since he broke out in the 2006 movie 'Step Up,' and today he's one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood.
He started off his career in eye-candy roles, but has toughened up his image as the years have passed. The 'G.I. Joe' movies did a lot to help with that, even though critics weren't overly fond of them. To a certain demographic of movie-goers, though, he'll always be most closely associated with 'Magic Mike.' They're the kind of viewers who probably wouldn't recognize him with his clothes on.
