GABBI GARCIA

First Filipina Regional Endorser for Hair Care

She’s only 18 but Gabbi Garcia is already being heralded as the next big thing. Why is it that so many people—and blue chip brands—are so besotted by this sloe-eyed beauty. What is it exactly that sets her apart from the thousands of other pretty faces with showbiz ambitions?

Well, for starters the lady is a force. Interviewers are quick to mention how intelligent, articulate and interesting she is during conversations. She’s proper, but never boring, and has none of the canned responses that dominate the interviews of many rising stars. Gabbi also possesses that rare, unbridled charisma that draws everyone’s attention. On the small screen with her covetable role in Encantadia, one can’t help but root for her. She’s also refreshingly wholesome—while her international counterparts are seen smoking in museum lavatories or flashing crowds in barely there clothing—Gabbi is a sparkling, refreshing ingénue on social media. Oh, and let’s not forget her face. Exquisite cheekbones, piercing eyes and a quick smile, it’s no wonder she’s everyone’s favorite darling. Let’s hope that her star continues to rise, continues to shine—we’re all going to benefit from having her shining down on us.—TEB
