Channing Tatum, Magic Mike Make Magic In L.A. Gay Pride Parade


Channing Tatum, and Magic Mike actors Matt Bomer and Adam Rodriguez, and a Magic Mike float, are part of the Gay Pride Parade in L.A. today. Dancing and stripping might or might not be part of the Pride Parade act. The hunky crew are in the parade to promote the upcoming sequel, Magic Mike XXL.

If you’re lucky enough to be in L.A. today, the parade begins at 11 a.m. Pacific time along the Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood. Some Twitter users plan to be there for the hot boys, and especially Channing and Matt.

So, there’s no question about it. The magic is happening for L.A. Pride, and it just got “a whole lot sexier.”

The only magic missing from the Magic Mike float is super sexy Joe Manganiello. Joe is busy these days, getting ready for his wedding to Colombian beauty Sofia Vergara. When Vergara spoke with E! News, she said her marriage to Manganiello will be soon, though she’s dropping any hints about exactly when or where it will be!

“Its going to happen soon…very far away in a very secret place where nobody is going to find us.”

Too bad Joe won’t be there to join Channing, Matt, and Adam. Ariana Romero, writing for Wetpaint, is philosophical about it.

“You win some, you lose some.”

Still, there’s plenty of hunkiness happening on the float, and lots of other reasons besides Channing Tatum to be at the parade and festivities today. Okay, Magic Tatum is one of the best reasons, but even if the expected crowd of 400,000 people means you can’t find a spot close enough to get a good view of Tatum and his Magic Mike buddies, the lineup will almost make up for that.

Rapper Beck G and Lisa Vanderpump have sent in their RSVPs, and the cast of The Fosters is all set to show up, too. Later on Sunday, the girl group Fifth Harmony is scheduled to play, and country singer Ty Hernandon will be on around 6 p.m.

The community grand marshals this year are the cast and crew of Transparent. Melora Hardin tweeted about being on the Transparent float, and reminded the crowd to wave as she goes by.

Magic Mike fans might be hoping for more than a wave from the three hunks. When Channing Tatum’s Magic Mike float rolls by, Tatum might be getting a marriage proposal!
