Christine Gambito otherwise known as Happy Slip is a Filipino-American but for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) purposes, allow me to refer to her as a Filipina.

Gambito attributes her nickname “HappySlip” to her Filipino mother’s mispronunciation of “half slip”:

As a child, my Filipino mom would always remind me to wear a half-slip with skirts. However, the way she would pronounce the phrase was misleading: “Your hap e-slip! Be sure to wear your hap e-slip!” So I naturally went around calling the thing a ‘happy slip,’ until friends at school corrected me by asking if I had a ’sad slip’ as well.

Coy had the privelege of interviewing Happy Slip during a recent press interview. View the Interview with Happy Slip.

I am quite proud of Christine and she deserves the “Ambassador” title given to her by the Department of Tourism. Her youtube videos are quite popular with over 112,913 subscribers and 4,567,319 Channel views making her the top 5 most viewed channels.

Her message to her fans:

My wish is that you would slip into happiness today!

Isn’t that a joy to behold!
