"They wouldn't even know me as Channing," said the 32-year-old Magic Mike star of his school days in at Tampa Catholic High School in Florida. Instead, Channing went by the nickname "Chan."
"I was just a jock. I played football…I had a girlfriend. It was very normal, standard stuff."
Jenna, who grew up in Texas, tells us she was in with the dance and cheerleader crowds, but said her passion for dance made it tough to attend many social gatherings.

"I was obsessed with being a dancer so I was in dance classes every night and missed a lot of the fun parties, camps, summer camps all that kind of stuff because I was like, 'I'm moving to LA and becoming a dancer.'," says Jenna. "'Focused' is a good word for me in high school."
