    GABRIELLE ZABOSKY

    Team Gwen

    Hometown: Oxford, PA Resident: Philadelphia, PA Gabrielle has been singing since she could talk. Her music career really took off when she turned a day job at a major supermarket chain into a springboard for her dreams. When she was 20, she auditioned for the store's radio station and was cast in their first-ever a cappella group, consisting of 11 talented employees from across the country. This gave Gabrielle the opportunity to work alongside Cupid on "Cupid Shuffle," perform on "Good Morning America" and star in music videos for social media. Even with all of her success, Gabrielle came from humble beginnings. She was raised in a three-bedroom trailer with her mom, four younger sisters, and an honorary auntie" Despite facing times without power or heat and her mother's struggle with mental health, Gabrielle has immense respect for her mom, who raised her family with limited resources. Gabrielle's relationship with her father was distant growing up, but, after he was involved in a severe car accident that left him partially immobile, she rekindled their bond. This tragic event, along with Gabrielle becoming an adult, not only brought them closer than ever before, but also motivated Gabrielle to pursue her musical dreams.
