Last Tuesday, January 29, Nico Bolzico made headlines for accepting Alex Gonzaga's "Chambe" dance challenge.
Nico did his best dance performance of Alex's song and uploaded it on his Instagram stories.
The two finally met each other on Wednesday, January 30.
Alex definitely left a lasting impression on Nico.
In an Instagram post after the event, Nico dubbed Alex as another "Queen Wifezilla" like his wife Solenn Heussaff, even though Alex is not yet married.
He posted his photo with Alex and wrote in the caption, "I thought I have met all the #wifezillas of the Philippines but I was wrong!
"I had the honor to meet another Queen Wifezilla today, the one and only @cathygonzaga!
"She destroyed me at the basketball challenge with PBA superstars but I won the #ChambeChambeChallenge!
"She also made me feel like home w her level of intensity!
"In the picture we supposed to swag, and I didnt know what swag meant so I did that!"
In an interview with PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) and other members of the press, Nico revealed what he thinks of Alex.
He said, "It’s the first time I meet Alex and she’s insanely a great person and she’s super fun, super nice, super down to earth.
"I didn’t know what to expect before meeting her because she’s such a big star.
"So you know, [like], 'Maybe she’s a diva?' Nothing to do with that!
"She is insane, she’s so nice, she’s so great. And for me, it was an honor to share this event with her."

The 35-year-old Argentinian businessman said, "I was super starstruck with those insane athletes.
