Channing Tatum, Jenna Dewan-Tatum's Date Night Details: Couple Dances to Step Up, Magic Mike Music in Miami

When Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum are away, the new parents will play! The spouses, who welcomed their first child, daughter Everly, in May, enjoyed a date night out together in Miami Beach, Fla. on Tuesday, Jan. 21. Celebrating the release of Jenna's January cover of Ocean Drive magazine -- also marking the mag's 21st anniversary -- Channing made sure his wife had a good time at her party at SL Miami at the James Royal Palm Hotel.
"These days there's not a lot of going out and partying, period," Jenna, 33, told Us Weekly at the event. "I have a new baby so I'm at home. My fun at the moment is watching Downton Abbey and getting a couple hours to myself, so this is really fun to get dolled up and come to the sexiest city on earth and play."

And play she did! The Witches of East End actress, wearing a sexy white dress, spent the majority of the night on the dance floor with her husband, who made special requests to DJ Crespo. "They wanted to only hear 90s hip hop and 90s R&B," an insider tells Us. "They're such good dancers that anyone with a view of the happy couple just stopped what they were doing and watched."
The couple boogied together to hits by Jay Z, Justin Timberlake and Rihanna. "They were cheek-to-cheek for Janet Jackson's 'All for You,' and Channing picked her up and twirled her around to 'Sweet Nothing' by Calvin Harris and Florence Welch," the onlooker adds.

The dancing duo also showed off their moves to songs from 2006's dance flick Step Up -- where they first met -- and Channing dances to Ginuwine's "Pony" from his 2012 stripper movie Magic Mike. "He started dancing for Jenna," the eyewitness tells Us. "Jenna was dying laughing."
The young parents, who wed in 2009, stayed at the party for over two hours and were among the last to leave.

"In a packed club, the two were totally zoned in on each other," the insider says. "Their eyes were always locked on each other."
