Nikki Blonsky took to social media Thursday to announce her engagement to her partner Hailey Jo Jenson.
“I’ve played plenty of characters in love in my life and it has been a blessing, but the greatest blessing in life is real love, true love and I am honored to finally feel unconditional love, and a love that is pure,” the award-winning actress, dancer and singer wrote on an Instagram post in which she shared photos of the happy couple showing off their engagement rings.
Blonsky, 33, has appeared in several movies and television shows over the past 15 years. But she’s best known for playing the role of Tracy Turnblad in the 2007 movie adaptation of the John Waters classic “Hairspray” — alongside John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Zac Ephron and Queen Latifah — for which she won a Critics’ Choice Award, and received a nomination for both a Golden Globe Award and a Screen Actors Guild Award.
