Filipina Celeb Paloma Esmeria Cosplays Chun-Li from Street Fighter
Gaming has long outpaced movies and music in the US. Now cosplay, a hobby closely related to gaming culture, is officially mainstream in the Philippines. While hardcore otaku like Alodia Gosiengfiao will always rule the hearts of Filipino geeks with their elaborate costumes and passionate portrayals, less geeky players are now unleashing their own inner otaku.
First Kyo Ritu Art enabled anyone to become a cosplayer for a day, from costume to photoshoot. Now mainstream Filipina celebrity Paloma Esmeria cosplays Chun-Li from from the Street Fighter series of fighting games.
She won’t win any international competitions with that costume, but she sure looks like she’s having fun.
