Zoë Kravitz reveals why she was 'attracted to' Channing Tatum

Zoë Kravitz is ready to discuss her romance with Channing Tatum. After mostly keeping a low profile about their relationship for the past year, she spoke to WSJ. Magazine on her collaboration with Tatum on her directorial debut, the upcoming thriller titled "Pussy Island".

"That's why I was attracted to him and wanted to meet him. And I was right."

Discussing his on-set style while filming "Pussy Island" in Mexico, Kravitz also hinted at his deep feelings for Tatum, even dropping the L-word. gave and an earring that Channing gave to me.
