The 43-year-old actress, who is playing MC at a stripper convention in "Magic Mike XXL", said she has never been to one till now but thinks there is nothing wrong with the adult entertainment, reported Us Weekly.
"I have never been to a male strip club. Adult entertainment, when you think about it, is kind of a dirty word.
"There is no reason adult entertainment can't be celebratory... It's about exploration. (The movie) rejuvenated my energy and spirit," she said.
The actress, who is married to Will Smith, credits co-actor Channing Tatum for giving her a new approach about the idea.
However, the actress who is now cool with the idea of strip clubs still does not think her son, Jaden, 16, and 14-year-old daughter Willow, will watch the new film.
"I don't think so. This is where you go, 'Mommy's going to do this red carpet. I think you guys should stay at home.' " she said.
