Actor Channing Tatum has a secret past as a stripper! GASP! The G.I. Joe star used to perform under the alias “Chan Crawford” in a strict no-nudity strip club called Male Encounter back in 1999 (watch Channing’s stripping video below).

The owner of the club, London Steele, says Channing acted a bit shy at first but really knew how to work the stage ending up as one of his best strippers. “He was shy at first, but he really knew how to work the stage. The women went crazy for him!”

Channing earned $50 per night plus tips while he was performing as a stripper at Male Encounter for a year. I don’t get it. I don’t know what women see in this guy – he is cute but that’s it! OK, Chan Crawford knows how to move no doubt!

The 29 year-old is now a successful actor and a married man. Channing and his “Step Up” costar Jenna Dewan tied the knot last month (July 11).
