Channing Tatum, 35, had his body hair groomed to a “high level” for Magic Mike XXL.
The actor didn’t want fans witnessing a “jungle” around his groin during the scenes where he stripped down to his undies, so he and his co-stars took extra care to be smooth-skinned.
He said: “The grooming is on a high level, because you don’t want a jungle down there, overflowing the posing pouch.”
Kevin Nash added: “For the first film, I bought a body-grooming thing and did it myself. This time I’m older – 55 – and all of a sudden you get hairier so I got waxed. Man, oh man, that was rough.”
Meanwhile, Adam Rodriguez, who has daughter Frankie with Grace Gail, found it tough getting in shape for the stripper sequel.
He said: “It was definitely harder to get in shape this time. I had just had a baby girl and was enjoying life, so it took a while to get motivated to torture, starve and exhaust myself on a daily basis to get into shape.”
