Salma Hayek Pinault says Channing Tatum nearly 'killed' her rehearsing wild lap dance for 'Magic Mike's Last Dance'

• Salma Hayek Pinault said Channing Tatum almost "killed" her filming "Magic Mike's Last Dance."
• The "Desperado" and "Frida" star was rehearsing a wild lap dance scene in which she was upside down.

Channing Tatum is heading back to the stage for a final outing in 2023's "Magic Mike's Last Dance," which sees the dancer travel to London after a business deal goes wrong. Tatum's joined by Salma Hayek Pinault in the sequel, and it's clear that things are going to get steamy between them both.

Hayek Pinault appeared on Monday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" to discuss what it was like working on the highly anticipated sequel and recalled a moment when she nearly landed on her head while practicing a dance scene.

The 56-year-old star said: "You know, this one part that's not in it where I'm upside down and my legs had to be somewhere. But upside down, one loses sense of direction, and I didn't do what I was supposed to do, so in the rehearsal, I went like, head down, almost hit my head."

Hayek Pinault explained that she thought her pants would come down because Tatum was holding on to her legs, and she wasn't sure if she was wearing any underwear, which could've led to an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction.

"He held on to my pants, but I was really concerned because my pants were going away, and I couldn't remember if I had underwear or not in this moment. So, instead of putting my hands to protect my head, I just held onto the pants. He's like, 'Put your hands up,' and I'm like, 'No, no, no, no.'"

Hayek Pinault continued: "Everybody came in and kind of took me away from him, and he said, 'What's wrong with you?' I said, 'What's wrong with me? You nearly killed me!'"

Tatum previously explained that he found it awkward working on the scene with Hayek Pinault because she was one of his "first crushes." It sounds like it was an interesting experience for everyone involved.
