(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) AlDubNation was in a frenzy during Saturday's episode of Eat Bulaga as Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza aka Yaya Dub from the show's much-anticipated KalyeSerye segment, finally met after their showdown during the "Bulaga Pa More" wildcard edition last September 5.
Fans had been anticipating the pair's eventual meet up for weeks and suspense had been building as the day of their showdown neared.
Both the couple and the fans' hopes were quelled, however, with the intervention of Wally Bayola's character, Lola Nidora, who prevented the two from actually meeting each other up close.
Attesting to AlDub's immense popularity, the couple were a hot topic on Twitter, with over 1 million tweets for the episode's hashtag #ALDUBBATTLEForACause even before the show began to air.
The number of tweets rose to two million during the Eat Bulaga's broadcast and reached over 5 million by the end of the day, setting a new record for the highest number of tweets recorded in the Philippines.
