'Ay ako go na ako agad': Jema Galanza relishes connecting with basketball community as PBA muse for Phoenix

Jema-ganda, Jema-galing!

Easily among the biggest muse reveals for the PBA Season 49 Opening Ceremony was Jema Galanza, with the Creamline star being the latest in the long line of volleyball stunners taking part in the annual basketball tradition as a new professional basketball season unfolds.

Galanza served as muse for the Phoenix Super LPG Fuel Masters Sunday, and while she looked stunning in her blue dress, the many-time PVL champion admitted to getting butterflies in her stomach.

“Super excited and kinakabahan kasi first time ko magpakita ng ganitong look sa maraming tao, and dito pa sa PBA,” she said.

“Mas kinakabahan talaga ako ngayon kaysa maglaro ng Finals [sa volleyball],” Galanza added.

Jema sure didn’t appear nervous, serving up amazing looks during the PBA Opening Ceremony.

Galanza revealed that she jumped at the chance to be the muse of Phoenix when it was offered, taking the opportunity to also connect with the local basketball community.

“Ay ako go na ako agad, bakit pa ako magdadalawang-isip di ba? Sayang to,” she said.

“And alam naman natin gaano kalaki ang basketball community and syempre gusto ko rin na mapakita ang sarili ko sa basketball community and malaman nila na isa ako sa part ng volleyball community,” Galanza added.
