Channing Tatum has had his fair share of film roles, but now he is revealing which of his famous lines fans quote at him the most — even when he's going through airport security.

During a recent interview with CinemaBlend, the Magic Mike star shared that the line "My name is Jeff," which he says in his movie 22 Jump Street, is the quote he hears most often from fans despite it being a "small moment" in the 2014 action comedy, per People.

"It's weird what happens in pop culture like that, you know? Same with 'My name is Jeff.' It's such a small moment in the movie," he said. "I remember we did a table read and it wasn't even that funny at the table read. It was like whatever. And all of a sudden, man."

His Blink Twice co-star Naomi Ackie noted how quotable lines and viral memes have to be organic and not forced in order to be lasting, adding, "It goes to show you can't try and be a meme. You've just got to be, and then if the meme comes, the meme comes."

Tatum said the hilarious quote even follows him when he goes through security at the airport.

"I've never went through TSA without somebody saying, 'My name is Jeff,'" he revealed. "Almost every single time I go through TSA."

Tatum stars in the new film Blink Twice, the directorial debut of his fiancée Zoë Kravitz. The director recently detailed the "beautiful experience" of working with her soon-to-be husband on the film where they first met.
