About me: "That girl" from Stockton is in LA! Gabriella is known as the Betty Page of stand up comedy. Pushing the envelope with wide eyed innocence, she has taken Hollywood hostage at The World Famous Improv, The Comedy Store, The Comedy Union, The Ha Ha Cafe, Hosted the Rock and Roll Cabaret, studied improv at iO West and is killing all over the bay. She can be seen on "Totally Ampd", in independent films and commercials. Her friends parents used to call her "that girl" Not as in Marlo Thomas but as in "is that girl here?","that girl better not be here","where is that girls mother?" Her mother's religion was "Live and Let Live" so, she got to say and do whatever she wanted. She was wearing blue eyeshadow in the 3rd grade and was very outspoken...her mom didn't enforce alot of rules but, was huge on morals and integrity. The eyeshadow didn't hurt Gabriella though! She currently makes her living as a makeup artist. The outspoken part...well....has made her the stand up comedian she is today. Having grown up in Stockton, Gabriella considers herself a survivor. She ran home all the way from the bus stop and it was only a block. These days,she walks to her car alone in the dark but, she’s not scared cuz now she’s got her secret weapon.....
Who I'd like to meet: I would like to meet anyone who is dancing to the beat of their own drum! I love people who are a little left of center with an edge. I love happy, silly people! Most of my friends laugh easily and have free spirits. I am walking some sort of a spiritual path so, I enjoy people with a positive outlook on life. HUG!!
I'm dancing to the beat of a different drum, although rather awkwardly and so far to the left of center ya can't even see me!! Thanks for the add, YOU ROCK!
You are always welcome to come back. We all had a great time and thanks for coming up here and making the show a success. I'm sure we'll be doing some gigs together in the near future.
