LeBron James and Channing Tatum made an appearance on The Ellen Show today in promotion of the animated "Smallfoot" film coming out later this month, and to raise some money for Bron's I Promise School in Akron, Ohio. 

To make their charitable efforts more entertaining for the studio audience and those watching at home, Ellen challenged the four-time MVP and his co-star to a series of dares. Walmart pledged to donate $10,000 to the I Promise School for each completed dare, which consisted of drinking a shot of tequila with no hands, licking a mystery object while blindfolded and eating vanilla ice cream mixed with tabasco sauce.

In the end, LeBron and Tatum completed enough dares to raise $50,000, but Walmart wound up donating $100,000 anyway. Also, LeBron has begun tucking his tie into his short suit pants.

Check out footage from Wednesday's episode of The Ellen Show in the video embedded below.
