SANTA MONICA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/24/09 -- Hotel Shangri-La serves as the sexy backdrop to GQ's latest cover starring Channing Tatum, photographed by superstar lensman Mario Testino.
Santa Monica's storied Hotel Shangri-La, recently rechristened after a $30 million makeover, served as the perfect setting for the August cover starring GI Joe's Channing Tatum, and photographed by living legend Mario Testino.
Just another in a long history of legendary photo shoots, the latest celebrity cover session at Hotel Shangri-La has everyone talking. A shirtless, underwear-clad Channing Tatum was captured cavorting around the halls of the hotel, and in the breathtaking Suite 700 -- a Hollywood playground featuring two bedrooms and a wrap-around terrace with one of "the best views in the world," according to a long list of travel magazines.
This latest GQ/Mario Testino/Channing Tatum shoot is just another feather in Hotel Shangri-La's cap; the hotel is a well-known hideaway for celebrities and VIPs. Bruce Weber, the photographer who created the Calvin Klein, Abercrombie and Fitch and Ralph Lauren ads, has made Hotel Shangri-La a virtual West Coast headquarters, and has shot countless groundbreaking images using the hotel as his muse.
