Cullman’s Channing Tatum is easygoing and funny, says Amanda Seyfried
February 06, 2010, 8:54AM
Cullman native Channing Tatum, who is shown here with Amanda Seyfried in a scene from “Dear John,” tried his hand at everything from being a construction worker to a mortgage broker to a male stripper before becoming an actor. “Man, I’ve had a crazy life,” Tatum says. “I’m 29 years old, and I’ve met millionaires, billionaires, and I’ve met homeless people and everything in between.” (Everett Collection)
Amanda Seyfried has been a Channing Tatum fan since she first saw the Cullman native in his breakout role as the bad-boy street dancer in “Step Up” four years ago.
“I’m sorry, but no girl doesn’t like a dancing movie — I don’t care what they say,” Seyfried says. “I loved that movie.”

The big deal is that throughout his career Salinger kept the one thing that is essential to every cultural legend: mystique. The Catcher in the Rye itself is as much of an enigma as its author. Its narrator is Holden Caulfield, a rebellious schoolboy who despises the weak figures of authority and ‘phony’ kids around him. Expelled from his prep school, he takes the train to New York, where he spends three days in a blur of loneliness, encountering girls, museums and his old English teacher, all the while his disaffection increasing. He dreams of becoming a noble savage guarding children from the lousy hypocrisy of the adult world: he will wait at the edge of the rye field to ward them away from the cliff.
The book was a Molotov cocktail cast into the middle of postwar America. Caulfield’s instability, his encounter with the prostitute Sunny, and above all the graphic language of his narrative drew savage opprobrium and fanatic admiration to the boy hero. …

Wells Tower is a serious wiseacre, the kind who gets away with it not because of his cleverness, but because he cuts to hard truths. Written with startlingly original voice, careening imagination and an abiding fondness for what Teabaggers would call “the non-elites,” his stories are set in a surreal America we know, but aren’t sure we want to.
Tower’s first book, “Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned,” attracted much more critical attention than short-story collections usually receive, making many “best of 2009″ lists. His characters include hapless divorcées, alienated adolescents, child predators of both the obvious and surreptitious varieties, and a Viking who enjoys cleaving skulls as much as the next pillager, but would just as soon be home in the rack with his common-law.
His descriptions are precise, often raw: a baby pigeon mauled by a cat looks “like a half-cooked eraser with dreams of someday becoming a prostitute.” A man who has fallen asleep on a package of saltines now feels the largest cracker shard “lodged deep into his buttock crack, like a flint arrowhead somebody had shot there.”

Rumors have been circulating on and off for the past two weeks that the New York Times is about to reveal some scintillating new details about New York governor David Paterson’s private life. Since Paterson already admitted the day after his inauguration that he (and his wife) have had extramarital affairs, many are predicting that these new allegations will be far worse for the governor, who came to power after his predecessor Eliot Spitzer took things too far with a prostitute.
Not that Paterson’s political situation needs another blindside from investigative journalists: Polls suggest Paterson has roughly a 30-percent approval rating and that Attorney General Andrew Cuomo leads Paterson 55%-23% among registered Democrats in the primary race. According to the New York Times, President Obama’s advisers have encouraged Paterson to not seek election in 2010 because they fear voters will take out their frustrations with him on the state’s Congressional delegation.

But who are the 300 other terrorists he mentions? Lawmakers have been trying to find out for months, and Republican Senator Jon Kyl says flatly: “There haven’t been 300 high-profile, dangerous terrorism cases in the United States. If there were — we would have heard about them.”
Kyl has requested the information from Holder three times but gotten nowhere. Although an assistant attorney general told Kyl he could get “briefings about terrorism suspects housed in federal prisons generally.”
Former Bush press secretary Dana Perino says: “the 300 number is as false as false gets.”

The Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor in Illinois, pawnbroker Scott Lee Cohen, says he has no plans to drop out despite coming under intense fire for a domestic abuse charge filed in 2005.
Cohen was accused of holding a knife to the throat of his then-girlfriend who was a prostitute. Charges were dropped after the woman failed to show up in court.

As you might expect, Fox — which, like the Post, is owned by New Corp. — isn’t commenting.
At first glance, it would make sense for Fox: Take the meanest man in England and exchange him with the crudest man in either hemisphere. Could be an even swap.
And watching Stern’s opinionated, prickly personality rub up against Ellen DeGeneres’ oppressive niceness would be fun. It might even give the show the lift it desperately needs in a post-Simon, post-Paula world.
But would this work? Really?
It just seems like a marriage made in hell. Stern has a penchant for strippers and midgets, not Fantasia Barrino. The shock jock’s musical taste run more towards Megadeth than Adam Lambert. In fact, he routinely lampoons the kind of starry eyed ingenues that “Idol” unleashes on the American public on a weekly basis.

As golfers lined up putts in respectful silence below, a small airplane circled over last week’s PGA Tour event in San Diego – dragging a banner reading, “We miss you Tiger! Deja vu Showgirls.” The next day, a competing strip club countered with a plane toting this message: “We miss you too Tiger! Dreamgirls.”
This is the strange, new realm professional golf now inhabits, where strip clubs jostle for business in the airspace above tournaments.
By most accounts, Tiger Woods originally planned to play in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, which starts Thursday. That would have created quite a scene: Woods, probably the world’s most famous athlete, strolling the picturesque fairways on the Monterey Peninsula for the first time in eight years.
Then, on Nov. 27, he drove his sport utility vehicle into a fire hydrant and a tree outside his Florida home – triggering a salacious sex scandal that includes allegations of numerous extramarital affairs. The story shook the PGA Tour to its core and prompted Woods to take an indefinite leave as he tries to salvage his marriage.

Oh boy, American Idol producers have offered up Simon’s chair to Howard Stern. The New York loving shock-jock will probably decline the position, so here’s a handy guide for Fox executives about who they should give the job to. Now this rumor could be totally untrue, but Susan Delfino (Terri Hatcher) may be killed off of Desperate Housewives next season! Did producers read our alternate reality post or something? Maybe M.J. will get a bath from that stripper, after all! (Ugh.) Three more actors have been cast in upcoming broadcast pilots. ABC’s Awkward Situations for Men is starting to sound pretty awesome, don’t you think? Speaking of ABC, the network has picked up Wright vs. Wrong from MadTV’s Stephanie Weir. For the love of God, I hope Weir keeps former coworker Alex Borstein far away from this project, seriously. Without a Trace’s Enrique Murciano has joined Shonda Rhimes’s Off the Map pilot. Even though we totally know everything that’s going to happen already, con …

He will spend the weekend with them and then hopes to take Elin away alone on their £14million yacht Privacy to try to rekindle their love.
Elin has removed her wedding ring and moved from their mansion to a rented home nearby.
But she joined him for counselling sessions in rehab and has given him a chance of saving their marriage.
A pal said: “He still has a lot of work to do.
“I think the chances of it lasting long-term remain slim.”
Tiger is also preparing for a return to golf – possibly this month.
Meanwhile one of his alleged mistresses told an Italian TV show that he paid for their romps.
Escort girl Loredana Jolie, 26, said he would fork out around £10,000-a-time for their sex sessions, shower her with gifts and jewels and fly her around the world.
