Where are the sneaky paparazzi shots when you need ‘em?

‘Cause we're hearing that Channing Tatum hit the stage on the set of Magic Mike to shoot a muy sexy dance number that left everyone whispering. So did the real life former stripper lose his sexy hip thrusts somewhere between Dear John and G.I. Joe?

Puh-lease.

"All I have to say is: Oh. My. God," a source who peeped Channing's moves in person tells us. "I knew Channing could dance, but you seriously have never seen a guy do this stuff."

Hmmm, he must have been keeping up on his training with wifey Jenna Dewan.

But do tell us more!

"He does that hip shimmy-shake thing in a thong," our spy teased. "There are professional dancers that can't do the things he does."

Holy G-string! Why isn't this movie in theaters yet? ‘Cause we cannot wait to see it opening night. And then again the next day. And the day after that, too. And…Well, you get the picture.

Guess Joe Manganiello wasn't lying when he told us that Chan was "on another level." Here's hoping his review of hottie Matt Bomer lives up to the hype (that's the Magic Mike man meat we're most excited to see strip down, after all).

"Not even Travolta back in the day had these kind of moves," our source gushes.

Aw, poor Johnny! We're sure he, too, will be too sufficiently distracted in the theater to worry about his forlorn legacy.
