In today’s digital age, where it’s easy to share and update one’s life online, content creators Gabbie Mariano and Liam Labrooy seem to be living the dream based on their social media feeds. But their new podcast, “Life Is Not A Reel,” offers a different perspective, shedding light on what’s beyond their online lives.
Gabbie Mariano, making waves on TikTok, shares videos of herself buying luxury items, wearing designer clothing, and attending exclusive fashion events like Fashion Week. Her OOTDs and fashion footprint also inspire people online to seek her styling tips and shopping hacks. It’s clear she knows her stuff and is passionate about it, given her internships at luxury conglomerate Moët Hennessy and the short courses she took in London at Central St. Martins on luxury fashion marketing and creative direction.
Meanwhile, you may come across Liam Labrooy while browsing online too. He’s not only an Australian content creator with a deep love for Manila but also a model distinguished by his buzzcut hair and colour-coordinated outfits. Chances are you have caught glimpses of him on billboards while strolling through malls or in the streets, in digital ads while surfing the web, or even gracing runways for local and international brands.
Despite their seemingly glamorous lifestyles, the title of their podcast, “Life Is Not A Reel,” suggests otherwise. Together, they will delve into the intriguing mix of glamour and mystery in the world of social media and content creation, revealing that only 1 percent of their lives go online, while the remaining 99 percent remains unseen.
In the podcast, they spill their unfiltered takes and reactions on topics ranging from internet fame, beauty, fashion, and wellness, and they unwrap aspects of their lives that don’t make it to the ‘gram. The two will also be chatting with their fellow creators, creatives, and some big names in the entertainment and fashion industry, dishing out what they are up to and what they’re like – both in their reels and in their real lives.
New episodes, serving up the latest tea, drop every Thursday at 6 pm on Spotify and Youtube, starting August 8.
