Actor Channing Tatum says that he gets "fat and happy" when he's not working on a movie because he "loathes dieting".
The 34-year-old, who is married to his "Step Up" co-star Jenna Dewan-Tatum, has revealed that although he has always been a sporty guy, when he's not working on films he doesn't try as hard to keep in shape.
"When I'm not working, I tend to get a little what my wife and I call 'fappy', meaning 'fat and happy'. I always keep fit because I like working out and I enjoy the competitiveness of training with buddies, but I loathe dieting. Loathe it," contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.
"When I'm dieting, I eat the same stuff every day. It's madness and monotony and it sucks the colour right out of the world until I feel like I'm living in that movie 'Pleasantville', all in black and white, It's awful," he added.
