Bad Blood! Inside Channing’s FEUD with his with Magic Mike co-star

by

There had always been rumours that these two handsome men just did not get along and the suspected falling out was confirmed today. 

It would seem that there is a certain amount of bad blood remaining between Channing Tatum and his Magic Mike co-star Alex Pettyfer. 

Alex, who plays Channing's naive protégé in the first film of the series, has spoken out about his disagreements with the 21 Jump Street actor but admits that the falling out was partly his fault. 

"It's true… Channing Tatum does not like me for many reasons, many being my own fault."

Speaking on author Brett Easton Ellis's podcast, the 25-year-old said that he knew Channing did not like him from the start because the young British actor had a bit of a reputation in the business for being a brat. 

In fact, Channing did not want to cast him in the role at all. 

As a result, Alex tended to keep a low profile on set.

"I was scared to speak. I actually did my work and I sat in the corner and listened to music because I had been told anything I did was wrong by my reps. I was very insecure as a human being." 

"That also gave me a bad rep because everyone was like, 'Alex doesn't speak because he thinks he's better than everyone else.' That's not true. I was just generally nervous and scared to be myself."

Reports circulated in 2012 about the pair not getting on during filming, with Channing reportedly calling the young actor a "diva" and a "brat".

It would seem that the already tumultuous relationship deteriorated beyond the point of return following a row over money after Alex rented an apartment from a friend of Channing's. 

Though Alex can see his mistakes, he has no regrets and still has the upmost respect for Channing. 

"Channing was actually an incredible influence on me because after this whole situation happened – it was kind of the end of my immaturity and all my experiences put into one."

We hope these two can kiss and make up…
