LOS ANGELES, Feb 5 — February 14 is just around the corner, and everyone, it seems, has Valentine’s Day on their mind — even Channing Tatum.

The actor popped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday to chat about his role in the new Coen brothers’ flick Hail Caesar! when the talk show host threw down a challenge, ostensibly to test his acting chops.

Tatum was asked to flirt with a lucky woman grabbed off Hollywood Boulevard using phrases printed on Valentine’s Day candy hearts.

As he fed her candy, he put on his best poker face as he made even the most mundane phrases like “TTYL” and “Bling” sound sexy.

We can’t, however, say the same about the visibly overcome woman whose walk home from school took a rather amorous turn.
