THE newest Asia ambassador for hair-care brand Pantene is GMA Artist Center star Gabbi Garcia, and she is the first Filipino to become the front woman of the brand. She stars in the latest Pantene TV commercial that will air in 10 countries, including the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Australia.
Gabbi flew all the way to Australia to shoot the TV commercial and the print campaign, where she workedwith award-winning photographer and filmmaker Olivier Staub, Sydney-based Hollywood stylist Ellie Goodman, celebrity hair stylist Ken Arthur and high-profile Filipino makeup artist Robbie Piñera.
The GMA star embraces challenge in this newest project, but is thankful that she has been trusted with an international brand. “It feels overwhelming, especially knowing that the previous ambassadors are all strong and successful. But beingin a big production where I work with people from different countries, I feel so empowered,” Gabbi continued.
A hundred days after her 18th birthday, Gabbi has set a new path for her career and she is just getting started. She takes being Asia’s newest Pantene ambassador as a platform to send every Filipina teen a message that believing anything is possible can make dreams come true.
