Hairspray star Nikki Blonsky, 35, kicks off Pride Month by announcing she tied the knot with Hailey Jo Jenson six months ago

Hairspray star Nikki Blonsky kicked off Pride Month with a big announcement.

The 35-year-old actress, who came out during Pride month four years ago, is now a married woman.

Blonski told it From magazine She married her wife, Hailey Jo Jenson, six months ago.

The couple eloped on October 21, 2023, less than a month after announcing their engagement.

In the interview, Jenson revealed that TikTok played the role of matchmaker in their romance.

Jenson, who goes by them/them, explained that they had been in love with Blonsky since seeing the actress and singer in her breakthrough role in the 2007 musical Hairspray.

“I saw she was live on TikTok one day, and she randomly added people to her TikTok LIVE. And she picked me at random, and I talked to her. And after the phone call, the TikTok LIVE, I slid into her DMs, and ordered a Cameo from her so she would see my name. And so it started from there.”

Cameo is an online site where fans can order personalized messages from their favorite celebrities.

Blonsky said she was immediately attracted to the jewelry designer.

“I remember the first time we did TikTok LIVE, and it clicked on Hailey’s face. And there was something about them and their presence and just their smiles. It was electric,” she explained.

‘And I thought, “Who is this person?” I remember my heart literally stopped beating and breathing.”
