Nothing like a good game of "So True, So False" to uncover the truth.

Asked during her sit-down on E! News today whether or not husband Channing Tatum "doesn't like her having sex scenes with other men" on TV, Jenna Dewan-Tatum admitted that particular nugget was "so true."

"It'd be weird if he was like, ‘Ah, I'm cool with it, do whatever,' you know?" laughed the Witches of East End star, who found herself in a steamy love triangle in season one and will be searching for her soul mate (literally, he's MIA) when season two premieres July 11 on Lifetime. "It's never fun [shooting love scenes], but you just get really used to it, it's weird."

But can Channing, who seems like a supportive Hollywood hubby if there ever was one, handle watching the finished product?

"Yeah!" Jenna told Giuliana Rancic and Jason Kennedy

"We're all friends, this whole cast, we hang out all the time," she explained. "They [Channing and her male costars] are, like, really good friends, so it's even more awkward. ‘Yeah, we have this love scene, but we were just hangin' with our wives and husbands...' It's acting, you know—it's weird."

Of course, Channing and Jenna know all about that, having met on the set of Step Up, playing super-hot-for-each-other love interests.

But as Jenna acknowledged Monday, that was a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. 

"I've kind of got the best at home," she agreed. (So no need to be jealous, Channing.)
