Gabrielle is a six-year-oldComing Together: Standing Up to Racism introduction girl who first appeared on Sesame Street in season 48. She was later given a featured role in the 2020 special The Power of We.
For her first appearance in Episode 4812, Gabrielle (voiced here by an unidentified child actress) and her friend Prairie Dawn make up a dance together. When Prairie suggests they move their hair around as part of it, they discover Gabrielle's hair can't whip around the way Prairie's can. They think they'll have to call off their dance, but learn they can incorporate both moves into the dance. They soon get Elmo and Big Bird to join, moving their fur and feathers too.
