Gabbi Garcia is a name you ought to remember. Other than bagging the role of Encantadia's new sang'gre Alena, there's something more about this 17-year-old actress—perhaps her bubbly personality and compelling smile—that had us all convinced that she's the one to watch out for. This rising teen star's acting career is about to take off to greater heights, and before anything else, we'd love nothing more than to get to know her better.
As told by Gabbi herself, below are 10 fun facts you need to know:
1. “I’m a girly girl! I love wearing heels. I think I have about 50 pairs.”
2. “Shopping and having a pampering day at the spa help me relax.”
3. “I would love to have a brother because we’re all girls in the family. Even my cousins are girls!”
4. “A typical outfit for me would be oxfords, shorts, and a loose top.”
5. “My not-so-secret dream is to become a beauty queen someday.”
6. “If you check my kikay kit, you would most likely see liquid lipstick, lip balm, mascara, concealer, white eyeliner, and eyebrow liner.”
7. “I’m a licensed scuba diver. I got my license at 10 and I’m already working on my advanced scuba diving license.”
8. “I try to stay fit by running in the morning.”
9. “When I found out I got the role of Alena for Encantadia, I cried!”
10. “I watched about 40 episodes of the old Encantadia to help me prepare for the role. I even took a crash course in Arnis.”
