“It broke skin and it was terrifying. But what’s crazy is that it was the most magical experience of my life. I go and get peanuts, it’s an hour experience, I have monkeys crawling all over me. I feel like I’m Pocahontas, I’m like a Disney character,” she recalled to DeGeneres, 59. “I’m singing, not very well, and the monkeys are just hanging all over me.”

The Golden Globe winner previously dated Revenge guest star Henri Esteve and more recently Parks and Recreation alum Ben Schwartz.
