‘Magic Mike’ lap dance was ‘physically challenging’

Salma Hayek is opening up about her steamy scenes with Channing Tatum in “Magic Mike’s Last Dance.”

The trailer for the third and final installment of “Magic Mike” showed a sexy lap dance scene with Hayek, 56, and Tatum, 42 — and Hayek spoke about what it was like to film it.

“It’s very physically challenging,” the Oscar-nominated star told Entertainment Tonight. “My goodness. You just wait to see. It’s just complicated.”

The “Frida” actress dished that it was a “magical moment” that made her “remember who I really was.”

Hayek — who took over the role from Thandiwe Newton — gave some insight into her character and what it was like on set.

“I play a strong woman,” she told Antonio Banderas while promoting their upcoming film “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.” 

“You know what was my day going into the office? I would just sit around and watch, like, 12 men, semi-naked dancing and doing pirouettes. And I got to boss them around,” Hayek continued.

Banderas, 62, joked with Hayek saying, “Poor girl, poor you,” and said that he would’ve made a cameo in the film.

“He would have. He would have shamed them,” Hayek responded. “He’s a really good dancer, Antonio.”

While the lap dance scene might have been “complicated,” Hayek has previously given Tatum plenty of praise for his dancing.

“If you thought he could dance [before], you are going to realize you haven’t seen anything,” the “House of Gucci” star told People in August.

“His dance skills — he just got better,” she added.

In the third movie of the franchise directed by Steven Soderbergh, Tatum’s Mike Lane is left bartending in Florida after a failed business deal. He hooks up with a wealthy socialite (Hayek) who takes him to London with an offer to headline a dance show.

Tatum has told People that he wanted the film to be “the Super Bowl of stripping.”

Ayub Khan-Din, Gavin Spokes, Caitlin Gerard, Juliette Motamed, Jemelia Georg and Vicki Pepperdine also star in the film.
