The 33-year-old actor said he wants his fans to be able to talk to him, reported Showbiz spy.
"It's a hard thing for me to wrap my mind around the C word: celebrity. Rock stars are celebrities, because they're larger than life. As an actor, you have to play the everyman and the everygirl. If you start treating people in the real world like assistants, that's not a good look," he said.
Tatum said his friends still make fun of him and that helps him stay grounded.
"It's embarrassing to tell you how much my friends make fun of me. Seriously, when you have a doll made of your face, it's ridiculous how creative your friends can get... Pictures, videos, little animated cartoons that they've made," he added.
