Oh, and she’s the lead star. She also executive produced Almost Christmas in which she starred in as well. While making her press rounds, Gabby dished on how she managed to wear both the actor and producer hat:

"We've always had to be that. Half the time, on certain productions if they don't believe in diversity in the hair and makeup department, then we're hair, we're makeup, we're wardrobe. You gotta to make sure not only you know your lines, but everybody else knows their lines. because you want it to be a success.

So we've been multitasking as talent forever. Now we're being given the opportunity to produce as well. For me it's just another day in the park but I'm also getting paid for it finally. Like Nicki Minaj said, 'I been on!'"

Facts.
