We first got to know Gabriella Montez when she was the new girl at East High - a friendly, clever student who was also an amazing singer.

Gabriella then turned into the new lifeguard at Lava Springs Country Club, spending her summer vacation with Troy and the rest of the Wildcats.

Not only is she Sharpay's main theatrical rival, but Gabriella, along with her with romantic interest Troy Bolton, paves the way for fellow Wildcats to follow their dreams.

We all want to know what life after East High School will hold for Gabriella, in High School Musical 3.
