Channing Tatum trolled his future father-in-law, Lenny Kravitz, over his latest social media thirst trap.
“Standing in love and gratitude,” Kravitz, 59, wrote via Instagram on Friday, March 15, sharing a shirtless pic of himself standing outside.
One day later, Tatum, 43, did a double take when the upload popped up on his feed.
“Jesus Christmas Lenny wtf you’re gonna hurt someone on this platform. Hahaha,” Tatum wrote via Instagram comment on Saturday, March 16.
Lenny Kravitz definitely approves of daughter Zoë Kravitz’s relationship with Channing Tatum.

He continued at the time: “I remember hearing something from my grandmother at a very young age.
