Magic Mike star Channing Tatum has confirmed to fans he will be quitting all social media because he thinks it's restricting his creativity. The actor took to Instagram to reveal the news, in a now deleted statement.

The 39-year-old told his fans, 'I'm gonna take a break and come off socials for a minute. I've been trying to get inspired and create again. And to be honest I don't really feel, or at least I haven't felt very creative on social in the last couple years now.'

He continued, 'I'm gonna go and be just in the real world for a while and off my phone. I'll probably come back at some point. But if I do I want to have a direction or a clear point of view of why I'm on here and what I'm putting out there. Love ya! See ya after a while. Chan'

Before the account was deleted, many fans commented on the statement saying it was a good idea, one said, 'Good on you man. Take the time you need for yourself, that’s self care', with another saying, 'Best choice ever 'a life without a phone'.'

Now, a search for Channing's social channels brings up an error, as the accounts aren't found, or content isn't available.

After meeting the star, Curtis took to Instagram to share some photos of him meeting the actor, saying, 'Absolutely STAR ⭐️ Struck 😁.. from watching him in films to seeing him in real life... @channingtatum @magicmikeliveldn ... @aj11ace'. sic

Meanwhile, when it comes to Channing's love life, he and pop star Jessie J are still going strong. Channing and Jessie have been enjoying a number of dates together, with the pair sharing some photos on social media.

Check out the most memorable moments from Love Island 2019:

TOMMY STOLE LUCIE FROM JOE

After surfer girl Lucie coupled up with Joe on the first episode of the series, things seemed to get off to a good start... before Tommy entered hours later.


Tommy chose to couple up with Lucie, stealing her from poor Joe. He said in the Beach Hut, "At the moment the girl I want to pursue is going to be Lucie. She's a surfer, she goes to the gym. Her body is banging. She has beautiful eyes, a beautiful face, beautiful everything."
