Carmina Topacio – New Filipina Youtube Sensation

Carmina Topacio is the next rising Filipina online star. She made waves on Youtube after she started uploading videos of her doing covers of various pop songs. Her cover of Eraserhead’s Magasin now has almost 200,000 views. Here’s a stellar example of how someone can literally be famous by leveraging social media and the internet. I really wouldn’t be surprised if she starts to get offers for commercials and maybe even acting especially since the major networks have online monitoring teams in place already for things like this.

Here’s one of her videos:

Other than Youtube, Carmina also has strong presence in Facebook. I searched her name and the results were staggering. She has 60 normal pages and 2 fan profiles. If you don’t believe me try it out for yourself. Just type Carmina Topacio on the search bar.

Lastly, other bloggers have also picked up on Carmina. Some of which are the more adult themed sites (toinks) but we can’t really avoid that in this age.

It will be very interesting to see how social media can propel her career even higher in the coming months. All I can say is Carmina is good luck and congratulations
