Amber Rose: Channing Tatum Was a Stripper Too!

The model thinks people give him a pass because he's a man.

After being brutally stung by the BeyHive for coming at Beyoncé — she basically equated Queen Bey with a stripper for "twerking half-naked" — Amber Rose has now closed in on her next target: Channing Tatum. The model says the actor and former stripper should be subject to ridicule just as she is and not get a pass because of his gender.

"Look at Channing Tatum. He was a stripper just like me. No one says s**t," she told The Huffington Post. "He's at the f*****g Oscars. He's at the Vanity Fair party. You know what I'm saying?" She continued her point, saying no one cares about his past "because he's a man."

The model, who recently came to the defense of her ex's wife, Kim Kardashian — we'll get to that in a minute — said though she embraces her former career, she's constantly mocked for celebrating it: "If I make fun of myself and I call myself a slut, or talk about my stripper past and say it was the best time of my life — I was young, and beautiful making a hundred thousand dollars in cash a year. How f*****g fun was that?," she said. "I had a bunch of friends, it was a party every night — I get ridiculed for that."

Amber recently came for Beyoncé — then regretted it — when she compared her and Kim's past as "sex workers" to Bey's on-stage performances: "We all love Beyoncé, but she's on stage half-naked and twerking all the time, yet people say, 'Oh, she has talent so she's about to do that,'" she said. "We don't have the talent that Beyoncé has, so we get criticized as former sex workers, but at the end of the day, we're just women."

Who do you think will be next on Amber's hit-list?
