Gab Valenciano’s new ‘super selfie’ goes epic
Gab captioned this photo: "My son, what has become of you..."
So what does “Super Selfie King” Gab Valenciano do when he goes home for the holidays?
Why, produce more of the same vids that have become an Internet sensation, of course.
But this time, on a more epic scale.
We are family
On New Year’s Eve, Gab posted his latest entitled “Super Selfie – Family Holiday Edition feat. My Family” on YouTube.
Clocking in at 1 minute and 15 seconds, the new vid is the longest he’s done in what has become a viral series.
A recent one with dad Gary V, which has been viewed 1.2 million times, was just 38 seconds.
Can you spot dad Gary V, mom Angeli, brother Paolo and kid sister Kiana in the vid?
‘Disregarding self-image’
In an interview with Social News Daily, Gab described a “super selfie” as “a video of yourself disregarding (most important word) your self-image, letting loose and just tearing it up.”
As to why he does them, Gab said, “I am unbelievably hyper with way too much excess energy. I needed an outlet [to] share that energy. Hence, the birth of super selfies. It started with Instagram, then YouTube. I had no plans for it to blow up, so I won’t lie, I am still kind of in shock.”
Gab has produced more than 20 of these super selfies since be began in July 2013. The most viewed is “Super Selfie – Tune Squad” at 1.4 million.
Surprise!
A student at Full Sail University in Florida, Gab was scheduled to return to the Philippines on December 22 to spend the holidays with his family.
Instead, he arrived two days earlier to surprise his sister Kiana on her 21st birthday.
He posted her reaction on Instagram:
Awww....
