During a Friday appearance on _Ellen_, Tatum found out that Berry had, in turn, dared him to dress up like Elsa from _Frozen_ and lip sync to “Let It Go” — a challenge he gamely accepted. “She wrote something down because she wanted to get you back,” [DeGeneres explained](https://www.ellentube.com/episode/channing-tatum-kyle-maclachlan.html). “And it’s been in this envelope because she’s daring you to do this. So she says…’Dress up like a princess and sing “Let It Go.”‘” What followed was a hilariously awkward rendition of the hit _Disney_ song featuring the 37-year-old actor wearing a flowing purple gown and huge blond wig. DeGeneres capped off the performance by spraying her guest with two cash cannons filled with fake pink money.
