For Channing Tatum's birthday, Salma Hayek shared a ripped image of him wearing only his pants

Little was left to the imagination in Salma Hayek's birthday greeting to Channing Tatum. 

In honour of her buddy and Magic Mike's Last Dance co-star's birthday on Wednesday, the 56-year-old actress made a special mention of him.

"Those of us who didn't work out every day stayed in our clothing. Happy birthday, Channing Tatum', Hayek captioned the risqué post, which included a photo of her flexing next to Tatum, who is just sporting a pair of black pants.

The photo was probably taken when the two were starring together in Magic Mike's Last Dance, in which Hayek played an affluent socialite who Tatum's character, Mike Lane, gave a sensual lap dance to.

Although it appeared to be fun on television, Hayek opened up to the media about her personal feelings during filming the sensual moment. 

Hayek informed the media, "It's very physically demanding," before demonstrating all the movements necessary to pull off the titillating scene. "Oh my god. Simply wait and watch. It's just difficult.

Tatum discussed the movie during the premiere and referred to Hayek as a "icon."

It's intended to be a big movie, and it should have that big movie sense. She's an icon, like, it's not difficult to simply be like, 'Oh okay, girl plus icon plus boy,'" he thought. Yes, it's a complete thing, you understand. It's enjoyable.
