是排球選手也是選美皇后　人美心更美的菲律賓女神

古瑪寶（Michele Gumabao）遺傳了籃球員爸爸的身高和運動天賦，是菲律賓國內數一數二的明星排球員，除了高挑的身材，她還有張精緻的臉蛋，2018年時，更跨界成為菲律賓的選美皇后，今年，她將再度代表自己的城市參加菲律賓環球小姐的選拔。

古瑪寶的弟弟馬可（Marco Gumabao）是一名演員也曾是泰拳選手，而她也和弟弟一樣嘗試跨足演藝圈主持電視節目，不過，即使在螢光幕前非常亮眼，在古瑪寶心裡，排在第一的永遠都是排球，雖然這樣暫時離開排球的選擇不只一次遭到粉絲懷疑。

大學時，古瑪寶帶領球隊拿到三連霸，更曾獲得冠軍賽MVP的殊榮，不過大四時，她決定要好好把學位好好修完，少了她的球隊和冠軍獎盃無緣，也出現一些責怪她的聲音，不過古瑪寶從不後悔自己的決定，她希望自己除了排球還可以有別的專長，也知道球隊是時候需要傳承。

原定5月要舉行的選美皇后加冕典禮，因為新冠肺炎疫情預計延後到10月舉行，這段時間，古瑪寶時常到前線幫忙分發食物和補給品給需要的民眾，曾經覺得這樣的行為應該要秘密進行，但她說，當這些行為透過媒體讓更多人知道，那些溫暖其實是會感染人心的，這番言論果然展現環球小姐的高度！

Since we started @your200pesos @aldopanlilio12 and I thought it would just be our response to help those affected by COVID 19 but the overwhelming support and trust from donors have kept us going even after ECQ. We are trying to mobilize efforts for specific causes as well, our first visit to the mandaluyong fire victims we distributed 100 Y2P Eco Packs, 250KG of rice and 5000pcs of pandesal! Next week @your200pesos will visit OFWS stranded at the AFP Headquarters in Fort Bonifacio. Necessities are water, instant noodles, instant coffee and hygiene kits! If you would like to donate in any way reach out to @your200pesos all the info is in our page 😁

不過，說到底古瑪寶最終的願望，還是成為一名排球教練，她將自己的成就歸功於耗費時間和心力教育他們的教練，所以也想成為培育下一代球員、帶領他們追求夢想的領導者，除此之外，古瑪寶也有支持許多和教育相關的補助計畫、參加疫情募款活動，希望透過各種方式回饋社會，絕對是人美心更美的表率。
