Actress Salma Hayek's interview with Chelsea Handler, which was shared on TikTok yesterday,is certainly turning heads, especially thanks to a wild story Hayek recounted about having a "massage gone wrong" while in a foreign country.

She kicked off the story by revealing she always "leaves her underwear on" while getting a massage, to which Handler totally agreed. And that's where things took an interesting yet totally bizarre turn.

Hayek tells how after the massage began, she wound up opening her eyes while lying face-down on the table. In describing what she saw, she says, "I open my eyes, and I see these horrible feet. And then I look again, and I see the hairy legs! And then I go, 'Wait a minute...' He was not wearing shorts!"

Honestly, you have to hear the rest of it for yourself. Here's the clip of the interview:

Um, excuse me? The dude was NAKED?! Hayek acknowledging the situation by saying, "Dude, where are your pants?" is totally classic.

While we didn't get to hear the final outcome of Hayek's massage from hell, she seems to be taking the whole thing in stride, given that she's joking about it to Handler.

The story left people's jaws on the floor, with one viewer saying, "Yikes. I know she’s telling it like a funny story, but this is actually terrifying. I would have been so scared."

Another person added, "This is giving me PTSD ," while another stated, "This is why I refuse to get a massage from a male. Never. I won’t go to my male doctor for any kind of female exams either."

Others found the humor in the way Hayek recounted the massage, and people clearly had a favorite part of the tale: "When we run, it's very visual."

Indeed!
