Paulo Ballesteros: His Face is His Canvass


Very few people can pull off the trick that he does which is make up transformation.  The guy is a genius in make up application that he can transform almost identically his face into any personality that he so likes.   Paulo Ballesteros started making his face his canvass and showcasing this talent while performing in Eat Bulaga, during its weekend shows, when the 'dabarkads' would present production numbers.    Eat Bulaga is currently the longest running variety show in the Philippines where Paulo Ballesteros is a mainstay and one of the reasons why the show has maintained its high-ratings.   Paulo does not only put on make up to resemble popular celebrities, he also copies their fashion and style.  He really immerses himself into the personality of the celebrity.  



That's the reason why Paulo is unparalleled in his "gimik."  Of course, impersonators in the Philippines are quite common:  We have Jon Santos, Willie Nepomuceno, Tessie Tomas and others who are great and brilliant impersonators.  But Paulo has a different genre.  He leads in his field of make up transformation and no one has gained attention the same way he has.  

Some of the personalities he has transformed himself into were:  Angelina Jolie, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Kim Kardashian and Lucy Liu.
