Channing Tatum shocks fans at bachelor party with surprise Magic Mike performance

Channing Tatum has delighted fans after he appeared on stage at a Magic Mike performance.

And to top it off, one lucky group were even celebrating a bachelor party at the show.

The special appearance was made at the Sahara Las Vegas stage on Friday (July 26) where Tatum joined the rest of the performers for their encore.

Although he appeared with his eyes covered at first, some fans instantly recognized the actor and descended into screams.

The performance was created by Tatum alongside choreographer Alison Faulk who was actually at the show on Friday.

She was also on stage alongside celebrity stylist Andrew Mukamal and husband-to-be Connor Bailey who were celebrating their joint bachelor party.

Tatum first starred in the Magic Mike movie back in 2012, under the director Steven Soderbergh.

Since then there have been two sequels, Magic Mike XXL in 2015 and Magic Mike's Last Dance in 2023.

The live shows came along back in 2017, originally in Las Vegas, but have since traveled to various other places, including London.

Occasionally, Tatum will surprise fans by appearing on stage. When the London shows opened back in 2018, delighted the audience when he took to the stage at the Hippodrome Casino.

The franchise has been hugely successful, with the first movie alone earning approximately $167 million at the box office.

A few months ago, Tatum's ex-wife Jenna Dewan claimed that the actor 'concealed' details about his earnings from the Magic Mike franchise.

At a court hearing in April this year, Dewan's representative Samantha Spector said that while Dewan had received 'some' funds, child support and other assets could not be divided until the questions over the earnings from Magic Mike could be determined.

Dewan's reps claimed she should get a portion of the earnings as the pair were married when the franchise was born.

"The Magic Mike intellectual property and all the proceeds thereon is the elephant in the room," Spector said at the hearing.

"We have, for the last couple of years, been trying to meaningfully resolve this case, but every time we do, we get stuck on that issue with Magic Mike.

"We are dealing with a potential billion-dollar asset."

In court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, Tatum hit back at the claims, saying: "I have always agreed for her to have an interest in the Magic Mike intellectual property and related entities.

"I have never denied her share of any community assets or income. Her claims that I have 'colluded with third parties' are completely false.

"She has had complete access to all our financial records for all activities during our marriage and since separation. I continue to provide her with updates regarding Magic Mike financial matters."

UNILAD previously reached out to both Dewan and Tatum's reps for comment.

Dewan and Tatum married in 2009 and began their separation in 2018.

They share a daughter, Everly, who is now 11.

The pair have both gone on to have other relationships, with Tatum now engaged to actor Zoë Kravitz.

It's believed the two met during the casting process of Kravitz's movie Blink Twice, which was previously called Pussy Island.
