Paolo Ballesteros has a talent - he can turn himself into Beyonce, Miley Cyrus or Taylor Swift!
The actor and TV host from the Phillipines uses make-up, wigs and coloured contact lenses to painstakingly recreate famous features.
Paolo, 31, who presents a daytime variety show called Eat Bulaga, can spend several hours creating the uncanny likenesses.
His transformations have also included Jennifer Lawrence, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Princess Diana, but he says he prefers Angelina Jolie and Mariah Carey.

These stunning constructions could grace the city skylines of the future.
They are the amazing entries in the internationally-renowned eVolo Magazine 2014 Skyscraper Competition.
Jaw-dropping concepts range from mushroom-like structures in the desert (Sand Babel) to a seemingly crumpled city structure (Infill Aquifer).
The first place was awarded to Yong Ju Lee from the United States for his project "Vernacular Versatility". The proposal reinterprets traditional Korean architecture in a contemporary mixed-use high-rise.
eVolo Magazine received 525 projects from 43 countries in all continents. The Jury, formed by leaders of the architecture and design fields selected 3 winners and 20 honourable mentions.

Matching Outfits (10) - 2010
Someone wearing the same dress as them!? It's enough to depress any fashion forward starlet.
Picking an outfit already seen gracing the body of another is an occupational hazard when you're a celeb.
But when there's only so many designers looks to go around identikit stars are sometimes inevitable.
And when the inevitable happens comparisons are simply unavoidable.
All a star can do is cross their fingers and hope that they come out top of the frocks.
After all, it doesn't matter who wore it first - it's all about who wore it best.

Man designs and builds 'cooking' robot, Beijing, China - Mar 2010
MAN CREATES 'COOKING' ROBOT
A Chinese pensioner has invented a robot chef that he hopes will soon be appearing in a local restaurant.
Liu Changfa, a retired automation system engineer from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, took one year to design and build his 'cooking' robot.
The finished robot is connected to a computer and cell phone, which allows people to preset their menu or remote control the robot to cook dishes.
An induction cooker is installed in the main body of the robot, while all seasonings, such as vinegar, salt and sugar, are hidden within its chest.
Special software gives clear timing instructions to the robot, such as when to add salt and other seasonings, in which order ingredients should be added, and how many times it should stir the dishes.
"The only thing I need to do is put the raw materials into the pot, then I can go away and wait until the beeping sound," said Liu.
Liu said he has contacted a local restaurant which has agreed to install the robot in their kitchen and introduce robot dishes as specials.
"I am to contact more restaurants, and let more people enjoy the service of cooking robots," he added.

The Saatchi Gallery opening with 'The Revolution Continues: New Art From China' exhibition, London, Britain - 06 Oct 2008
CHINESE REVOLUTION AT SAATCHI RE-OPENING
China is leading the way once again at the re-opening of London's giant Saatchi Gallery.
After a three-year closure the gallery has re-opened its doors in a new venue with the inaugural exhibition "The Revolution Continues: New Art From China".
Featuring some 30 of China's leading young artists, the show promises to be a "cutting edge survey of recent painting, sculpture and installation."
The Gallery was evicted from its original home at the County Hall on London's Southbank in 2005 after a row with the building's owners.
Now found at the Duke of York Headquarters building in Chelsea the Gallery has 70,000 square feet (6,500 square metres) of floor space to play with.
Due to this, it claims to be the only free entry contemporary art museum of its size in the world.
One of the more unusual exhibits on display in its opening exhibition is "Old Persons' Home" by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu. This satirical work features wheel-chair bound models of old people, many of whom bear some resemblance to world leaders, trundling aimlessly round the space they inhabit.
In another room sits a huge pile of fake excrement that contains hundreds of toy soldiers. By Liu Wei, "Indigestion II" has been described as "a man-sized statement of rejection... leaving no detail to the imagination".

Now found at the Duke of York Headquarters building in Chelsea the Gallery has 70,000 square feet (6,500 square metres) of floor space to play with.
Due to this, it claims to be the only free entry contemporary art museum of its size in the world.
One of the more unusual exhibits on display in its opening exhibition is "Old Persons' Home" by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu. This satirical work features wheel-chair bound models of old people, many of whom bear some resemblance to world leaders, trundling aimlessly round the space they inhabit.

Shilong Sports School, Shilong, China - 05 Jul 2008
LIFTING FOR GOLD AT CHINA'S SPORTS ACADEMIES
A town in south China is the centre of weight lifting for the country's vast sports training machine - a machine that is aimed solely at transforming children into Olympic champions. In total, 22 world championship gold medals and four Olympic medals have come out of the Shilong Sports School in Guangdong province. As Richard Jones discovered, many of the children in these kinds of Olympic medal factories aim to become rich but, in reality, most will end in poverty.
Liu Kai Long steps up to the bar. Unblinking, staring straight ahead he grunts and screams. In one swift movement 120 kilos, double his body-weight, is thrown over his head. "Stop your screaming," shouts his coach, "it wastes your energy." At just fifteen years of age Long is one of the next generations of "champions" according to head coach Lai Run Ming.
Coach Ming should know, he won a silver medal at the 1984 Los Angeles games and a bronze four years later in Seoul. He spends every day watching his young charges, perfecting their technique and building up their bodies.
During his intensive two and a half hour training session with Long, Coach Ming urges the teenager to lift more than 40 tones. For 30 minutes, sweat poring from his grimacing face, Long practices power lifting, during which lifts up to 240 kilos a time. For a further hour he then perfects his technique of the "snatch" and the "clean and jerk". His only break is a short opportunity to wander off to get some sugary water. "I just want to win. My trainer won silver and I want gold," he says.
