It looks like Ellen DeGeneres has a new victim to add to her long list of celebrity scaredy cats.

Drake stopped by the Ellen Show to chat about Views and much more, what he didn't know is that DeGeneres was going to take his song "Jumpman" literally.

DeGeneres praised Drake for the job he did hosting SNL. She told him she knew how difficult it was and wanted to know how he was able to not only do the show but perform as well.

Drake said he has the utmost respect for the entire SNL cast and crew. He told DeGeneres that it's not something you can really describe you just have to experience it.

Drake told DeGeneres and the audience that there was barely time between the takes and someone was holding you by the waist. He joked that they would be really nice about telling you to step into your pants but then get loud.

Drizzy Says it was a great experience and a lot of running around that put him out of breath. He said he tried to make the best of it and it was a tough task but he had fun.

Meanwhile, Drake says he would never go mountain climbing because he gets a rush from getting strawberry lemonade from the fridge. Drake also talked about Damarjay who accompanied him to the 2016 NBA All-Star Game.

DeGeneres managed to bring up Drake's friendship with Rihanna and a photo of them dancing together at her show.

Drake said that it was simply friendship at its finest. DeGeneres joked that she and her friends did that all the time.

She congratulated Drake on "One Dance" being his first number one.

Towards the end of the interview they discussed mini-drake before one of DeGeneres' staff popped out of the set table scaring Drake half to death.
