Angelina Jolie has her eyes set on Channing Tatum now that the Magic Mike actor is splitting from his wife, Jenna Dewan. At least that’s according to an article published by OK! Magazine. However, Gossip Cop is on the case and they’ve found that the tabloid magazine’s story is nothing but fake news.An alleged source “told” OK! that Jolie views Tatum as a hot “prospect” for a new romance.“She just wants a good-looking guy to hang out with… When Angelina heard he was back on the market, she called her agent,” the reported “insider” continued. “She has asked his agent to talk to him about the possibility of the two of them working together, but that seems to just be an excuse to get to know him better.” The source also added that Jolie likes Tatum’s “dance background” and admires his Southern charm and handsome face. She’s also reportedly a big fan of Magic Mike, the tabloid reports.But as Gossip Cop notes, it looks like OK! Magazine is trying to capitalize on the fact that both of these A-List celebrities are in the midst of breaking off long-term relationships. Gossip Cop’s source in Jolie’s camp claims that OK’s story is totally false. Although other media outlets have speculated about her dating life since she split from Brad Pitt, a source told People Magazine recently that Angelina has no interest in dating anyone right now because her life revolves around raising her children. This isn’t the first time that a tabloid has claimed that Jolie wants to date a younger actor. The celebrity rumor watchdog reports that Radar Online has previously speculated that Jolie had her heart set on a relationship with Garrett Hedlund, the leading man in Jolie’s film Unbroken. Radar’s source alleged that Hedlund had been “making the moves” on Jolie and that they had been texting each other and meeting up for dinner dates. But Gossip Cop debunked that story, citing Radar’s less than stellar track record on reporting credible stories about both Jolie and Hedlund.An even less credible story appeared in Australian tabloid NW which claimed that Angelina wanted to nab Chris Hemsworth from his wife because she has a crush on him. Their alleged source said that Jolie wanted to cast Hemsworth alongside her in a film that would be like a reboot of Mr & Mrs. Smith. Gossip Cop debunked that story as well.As for Channing Tatum and his relationship status, People reports that Jenna Dewan has dropped her married name on social media. Jenna and Channing announced that they were breaking up three weeks ago.

Angelina Jolie impressed viewers as she flew a plane with ease and elegance over the desert in Namibia in ITV's The Queen's Green Planet last night.The actress and committed humanitarian featured with her six children in the documentary about Her Majesty's plans to protect the environment."It's beautiful… I think it's the most beautiful places in the world," Jolie says to her co-pilot as she flies over the desert. Commenting on the impact of climate change, the star continues: "Even in the last decade [climate change] is so noticeable, and the expanding deserts... I love the deserts, but we don't want it expanding in such a way." Sir David Attenborough - who teamed up with Her Majesty to make the documentary - also provided the programme's commentary, and revealed that Jolie has partnered with the Namibian government to make a unique plant nursery to replace dying trees in the desert.Fans were also wowed by the Jolie's plane skills - she's held a private pilot license since 2004 - along with her contribution in preserving forest conservation in Africa.Jolie also only had wonderful things to say about the "lovely" Queen in the programme, and revealed she constantly educates her children on the monarch's stance on the importance of conservation."What it comes down to it you say to the kids, 'You know really, you don't know her, you can't understand all that it means to be a queen and all that,'" Jolie explained."But you try to say, 'You know she's just this really lovely lady who really cares about people around the world, and she really cares about the future."And she wants your grandkids and her grandkids to be able to be running around, enjoying nature and other cultures, and the importance of other cultures. She thinks that really matters and I agree with her." The 91-year-old monarch and the Oscar-winning actress previously met when Jolie was made an honorary dame by the Queen for her campaigning work fighting sexual violence in 2014.
