Of Course Taylor Swift Made the Most Delicious Homemade Pop-Tarts For Channing Tatum: How Are These Warm?’

Sure, Taylor Swift has been barnstorming the world on her massive Eras Tour for the past year and is, arguably, the biggest pop star in the universe. But according to pal Channing Tatum, when she’s not rocking tens of thousands in stadiums, or flying across the globe to hang with boyfriend Travis Kelce, she’s low-key whipping up delicious snacks for her friends.

“I was a fan of the music because I’ve listened to her forever but I did not know she was such an unstoppable force,” Tatum told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show on Thursday night (July 11) after the host shared a pic of the actor with Gayle King at an Eras Tour show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in August 2023. Tatum, 44, came ready to play for that gig with a glitter heart around his left eye and a homemade “It’s Me, Hi I’m the Daddy It’s Me” shirt fashioned by his daughter, Everly.

“I mean, I kind of know her a little personally and she’s really kind of just normal and sweet,” Tatum added before dropping a pastry-related bombshell. “And she’ll make you, like, a dinner, and like whip it up no problem. Like, homemade Pop-Tarts. Like warm, warm Pop-Tarts. I’m like, ‘Did you just make these? How are these warm?’”

Blown away by the Eras Tour gig — where Tatum said he was very careful to do just “hand-dancing” and keep it G-rated in front of his daughter by avoiding any Magic Mike-like below-the-belt gyrations — the actor said he considers Swift to also be an elite athlete. “And then you get to see her go on stage, for like a three-plus hour show … I challenge any triathlete that’s a champion to go and do what she’s doing on stage. I was a fan-fan after that,” he said.

Tatum — who currently stars in the new NASA-themed film Fly Me To the Moon – also gushed about his engagement to actress/director Zoe Kravitz. “I’m so happy, I don’t even know how to really put it into words,” Tatum said. “She’s so special and yeah, I don’t know, to get to wake up every day and create with somebody. It’s really, really good.” When Fallon joined in on the lovefest by praising Kravitz’s cool factor, Tatum tried to play it cool himself, before admitting that his beloved is actually, okay, fine, “annoyingly cool… it’s a problem.”

He said the two of them met on the set of her psychological thriller directorial debut, originally called P—y Island, now called Blink Twice, which is due out on August 23. Tatum — who, not for nothing, has a resting shredded body — had a laugh with Fallon about his soon-to-be, insanely ripped father-in-law, Lenny Kravitz, 60. The pair gazed in awe at a picture of the rocker showing off his washboard abs in a shirtless Instagram post, with Tatum saying, “I don’t even understand, like, how do you do it? He’s not from this planet.”

And yes, the actor has seen Kravitz work out and he and Fallon had a laugh about the “most iconic” thing Tatum said he’s seen “in decades”: the viral video of Lenny pressing iron on an incline bench in leather pants, boots, shades and a mesh shirt. “I thought it was AI at first!” Tatum said. “And I was like, ‘oh no, it’s not AI, it’s just Lenny Kravitz.”
