- If you’re a celebrity, it feels good being a favorite or the ‘apple of the eye’ of a particular network. The best projects are given to you and you are guaranteed to never ran out of projects.
- Kapuso actress Gabbi Garcia is rumored to be GMA’s favorite among its roster of talents.
- A netizen recently asked Gabbi if she is indeed the favorite among the Kapuso stars, citing the active promotion of all her projects and commitments online.
- Gabbi clarified that she is not being favored and denied the rivalry between her and fellow Kapuso actress Barbie Forteza.
A netizen with the Twitter handle @VanbieTitas questioned why GMA Artist center regularly updates Gabbi Garcia’s fans on her whereabouts and activities. Stating that Garcia is not a big star to begin with.
@VanbieTitas, wrote: “@GMA @ArtistCenter kung makapag update kay @_gabbigarcia feeling nila Superstar. Ano ba project niya na Sumikat? Enca [Encantadia] is not her solo Proj [project].”
In Encantadia , a 2016 remake of the 2005 iconic GMA fantasy series, Gabbi played one of the four Sang’gres, along with Glaiza de Castro, Sanya Lopez, and Kylie Padilla.
Gabbi replied to @VanbieTitas saying, “Sorry naman daw po. [blushing] hehehe…”
She said she read the whole thread but decided not to react anymore to avoid any issues.
Gabbi also clarified that she’s not receiving any special treatment from GMA Artist Center and the network itself. She also revealed that Barbie Forteza’s fans had been bashing her because they thought Gabbi is going to be Barbie’s rival.
Gabbi and Barbie both appear every week in “Sunday Pinasaya.” Gabbi believes that they are different from each other. They have their own styles in acting and genre. She said she admires Barbie for being a good actress.
The Kapuso actress seems to handle her bashers well. She admits she does get hurt too, but she has learned to deal with them positively. She says in as much as she can, she prefers to ignore them [bashers], but if something is below the belt, she says, she would definitely say something.
