Proof of Sheesh's global appeal was his appearance in Australia's "Today Show," has been featured in international websitess such as bbc.com and seen jamming with an international audience, particularly in Melbourne, Australia.

The online curiosity started as a fun gig at a local mall. It was captured and posted online to the amazement of Swifties fans.

Soon, Coronel's performances as Taylor Sheesh were trending online and more venues have invited him to take the stage.

"I' happn be a Swiftie since 2009 and I'm also a drag queens so I'm trying to impersonate her and it works and it went viral," Coronel said at th

And while the drag star has been impersonating Swift since 2017, it was during the ongoing "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" that Coronel was able to expand his audience. For one, The Philippines is not included in the ongoing tour so Filipino Swifties are more than happy to jam with Taylor Sheesh in free music events around the country.

Then, Coronel delighted fans when he brought his own "The Errors Tours" — a play on Swift's world tour title — in Fed's Square in Melbourne that had a huge turnout of Aussie Swifties.

Melbourne was a stop of the Eras Tour but with high demand for tickets, many fans were not able to get a seat, and like the Filipino audience who have been doing it since last year, they opted to see the next best thing — Taylor Sheesh.

"We didn't expect that we will have a massive crowd. Aussie Swifties are insane and wild. They gave 100,000 energy from start to finish," Coronel said during his 'Today Show' interview that was aired a day after.

Coronel's next stop — Singapore.

The Errors Tour will take place at Hard Rock Cafe, Singapore on March 16 and 17, a week after Swift's six-night concert in the country.

"To all my fellow Swifties in SG, you're unbelievable, because even though I haven't posted about it yet, Day 1 is already sold out!!" Colonel posted on his Faebook page.

With this unexpected success, has Coronel heard from Swift herself?

"I haven't received word from her team yet but we are hoping that she likes what we are doing... I will always love and support her because she changed my life," he finally told the Today Show.
