The world is a giant melting pot of people and now so is your timeline thanks to the viral Snapchat swapping app that allows users to change their appearance by airbrushing images to look like the opposite gender.
The app’s augmented reality (AR) lenses include facial features that are typically male or female.
The male filter adds some scruff, bushier eyebrows, a broader jawline while trying to hide lengthy hair. The female filter features fair skin, longer eyelashes and hair, and makeup such as lipstick and blush.
Snapchat’s new gender-swapping filter has caused quite the stir on social media, with some men creating fake Tinder profiles and using the female filter to attempt to catfish unsuspecting users looking for a hot date.
We decided to round up some celebrities of Asian descent and mixed ethnicity and put them through the app’s lens:
Many people might not know this, but despite our large and loyal following which we are immensely grateful for, NextShark is still a small bootstrapped startup that runs on no outside funding or loans.
Everything you see today is built on the backs of warriors who have sacrificed opportunities to help give Asians all over the world a bigger voice.
However, we still face many trials and tribulations in our industry, from figuring out the most sustainable business model for independent media companies to facing the current COVID-19 pandemic decimating advertising revenues across the board.
We hope you consider making a contribution so we can continue to provide you with quality content that informs, educates and inspires the Asian community. Even a $1 contribution goes a long way. Thank you for everyone's support. We love you all and can't appreciate you guys enough.
