We’re pretty sure the Japanese audience thought that a Hollywood celebrity was in their presence. He almost had us fooled.
Paolo Ballesteros, who is known for his mad makeup skills, transformed into American actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie when he walked the red carpet at the 29th Tokyo International Film Festival.
The 33-year-old actor plays the lead role in the Jun Lana-helmed festival entry Die Beautiful, a dramedy about a trans woman who wants to “be presented as a different celebrity on each night of her wake.”
The Tokyo Film Festival is ongoing and runs until Nov 3.
