Channing Tatum is proud of his package

Yes, that’s actually the headline Details Magazine has opted for in their February 2010 cover story on PopWrap fave Channing Tatum. But the most shocking element isn’t that a majority of the article is devoted to his manhood, it’s that the first sentence in the piece is, “Channing Tatum’s penis is gross.”

And then the entire first paragraph is: “It looks like a hot dog that’s been left too long on the grill. The tip is hot-pink, singed and shriveled. It appears angry. And it’s painful to view. My penis hurts just from looking at it. Movie stars tend to be vain, by nature and profession, but Chan — that’s what everyone calls him — does not mind one bit showing me his sad, withered wiener.”

As it turns out, Channing scorched his stick on a film set recently. “It was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life,” he says of the incident. “I’m good . . . now,” he adds with a grin. “Now my penis is fantastic! One hundred percent recovered. Put me back in the game, Coach.”

On the matter of how it actually became burned, Channing says that it was on the set of “Eagle of the Ninth” — which PopWrap talked about here — and was a total accident. Details writes: “The action required him to wade in ice-cold water, which, despite a high-tech wetsuit, could be withstood for only a few minutes. ‘The only way to keep warm was by pouring a mix of boiling water and river water down your suit. We were finally done shooting for the day, and one of the crew guys asks if I want to warm up before I go. I’m like, Nah, I’m good. And then I thought, Why not? Thing is, he’d forgotten to dilute the kettle water. So he poured scalding water down my suit. And I was trying to pull the suit away from my body to somehow get away from the boiling water, and the more I pulled the suit away, the lower the water went. It just went straight down and pretty much burned the skin off the head of my dick.'”
