Channing Tatum’s Reaction to Future Father-In-Law Lenny Kravitz’s Thirst Trap Has Followers Asking Him To Keep Quiet

Lenny Kravitz left very little to the imagination with his latest Instagram post, and it’s elicited diverse responses from the internet. There’s Lenny’s soon-to-be son-in-law Channing Tatum, who jokingly told the singer to cool it — and then there are Lenny’s fans who are begging Tatum to zip it.

The “Fly Away” singer posted a picture over the weekend standing outside rocking low-rise jeans (and when we say, “low,” we mean low), shades, and his ever-cool demeanor.

And no, there was no shirt. Just miles and miles of abs, chiseled pecs, and subtly flexed biceps.

“Standing in love and gratitude,” Lenny captioned the thirst trap.

Tatum — who is engaged to Lenny’s daughter Zoë Kravitz — quickly jumped in the comments.

“Jesus Christmas Lenny wtf you’re gonna hurt someone on this platform. Hahaha,” the She’s the Man star wrote. The hilarious comment has more than 5.6 thousand likes and nearly 100 comments. And while it’s a fitting response from a future SIL, it was divisive.

There were those who agreed that Lenny was causing pain. “He literally poked my eye out with those abs …” one person responded. “My ovaries hurt 😂😂,” another said. “Hurt for real too, my eyes are getting blurry from the screen time in this one,” said yet another.

And there were others who wanted Tatum to stop trying to dissuade “Zaddy Daddy.” “Here’s the thing, we WANT him to hurt us 😈 😂,” one person responded. “Lmaoo I’m here for it! 🔥,” another said.

“Don’t discourage him!” one follower wrote, and we’re pretty sure the internet agrees with that sentiment.

Future In-Laws

It’s hard to say how Lenny might have taken this comment that was seemingly all in good fun. (Do you believe the “Hahaha?”) It was reported late last year that Lenny was not so keen on his daughter Zoë (who he shares with ex Lisa Bonet) and Tatum getting married. He was reportedly worried about the scrutiny she would endure stepping even further into the limelight.

“Marrying one of the most famous actors in the world is going to increase that pressure times 1000,” an insider said. “Lenny likes Channing just fine — but he tells Zoë they should just continue shacking up rather than her jumping into another marriage.”

(ICYMI: Zoë was married to actor Karl Glusman for about 18 months before filing for divorce.)

So, did “Zaddy Daddy” laugh at “Jesus Christmas?” Or did he roll his eyes and sigh? We can’t say. But what we can say is that the internet wants to see a whole lot more of these thirst traps. And — as one follower pointed out — they can be from either of the main men in Zoë’s life: “@channingtatum don’t be shy, keep doing the same.”
