Zac Efron Says He Was Nervous to Meet Simone Biles & the Final Five
Zac Efron pulled off the ultimate surprise for Simone Biles and the rest of the Final Five when he showed up at the Rio Olympics after the team’s final competition.
The 28-year-old actor opened up about meeting Simone, Aly Raisman, Gabrielle Douglas, Laurie Hernandez and Madison Kocian while making an appearance on the Today show.
Zac explained that beforehand he was “kind of getting nervous myself, but it ended up being so sweet”
“They won gold medals, they were crushing it the entire Olympics, and I was like hiding in a closet waiting to come in, so I didn’t know what to think,” Zac said, who could be seen tearing up during the medal ceremony before meeting the girls.
He added, “Their story just blew my mind. When I found out Simone and this team were fans, I was like, ‘What kind of guy am I if I don’t show up?’”
