"What're y'all doing here? Just chilling?" she asked him.
"We're actually driving across the country," he replied. Beatrice didn't hesitate in inviting herself along for the ride.
"Why didn't y'all tell me? I could've gotten my clothes together and rolled with you," she said.
After a couple minutes this banter, the two then started an impromptu dance party, grooving to Nas and Lauryn Hill's 1996 hit "If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)." The entire moment was recorded on Facebook Live and posted on Tatum's official page.
Celebrity interactions with fans can often come across as wooden and contrived, but Tatum seems genuinely happy to hang out with Beatrice, who maintains her cool in the presence of the 21 Jump Street star.
Of course, no mention of Channing Tatum in a gas station would be complete without this immortal clip from Magic Mike XXL, when his co-star Joe Manganiello pulled off a similar, but decidedly more risqué, stunt.
Even though Tatum didn't take his shirt off, we're sure that Beatrice appreciated hanging out with him all the same. (But if you want to tap into your inner Manganiello, sculpt a laser-cut torso in just six weeks with Men's Health's Anarchy Abs workout.)
