Seth Simon Liu (born November 22, 1995), also known as Chino Liu or Tita Krissy Achino, is an Filipino influencer, actor and comedian who impersonates former actress Kris Aquino. [1] He is also a content creator who makes various vlogs and is part of the group Team Payaman, led by Cong TV. [2] [3]
Seth Simon Liu was born on November 22, 1995, in the Philippines. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from Colegio de San Juan de Letran, graduating in 2017. After completing his studies, he began creating content online, first trying out various formats before eventually concentrating on character-based impersonations. [4]
Liu gained wider public attention in 2017 when a video of him voicing navigation prompts for the app Waze using impressions of various Filipino celebrities circulated online. His impersonation of television host and actress Kris Aquino drew particular notice and later developed into his most recognizable persona known as "Tita Krissy Achino". In interview with the Philippine Daily Inquirer , Liu said he chose to concentrate on the Aquino impression because of their similar speech patterns and natural delivery. [5]
In the same year, Liu started a YouTube channel using the name "Tita Krissy Achino", while still taking part in television programs. His reach expanded following an appearance on the variety show Wowowin , where host Willie Revillame openly praised his impersonation during a phone call segment with Aquino. The segment gained Liu more public attention and secured his place in mainstream media. [6]
Liu later became a member of the content creator group Team Payaman, having met its founder Cong TV through a multi-channel network under ABS-CBN . He became part of the group as a host and collaborator, taking part in their events and online projects. His YouTube channel continued to gain followers and reached one million subscribers in 2020. [7]
In 2021, Liu introduced a makeup collaboration with Viy Cortez under ViyLine Cosmetics, featuring a lip and cheek tint associated with his character "Aling Cely". The project marked one of his early business ventures outside content creation. [8]
In 2021, he bought his first car a Geely Okavango, calling it a reward for his years of work in content creation. He also mentioned that fellow vloggers Cong TV and Cortez encouraged him to make the purchase. [9]
Liu has spoken openly about incidents affecting his personal safety, including a failed burglary attempt at his residence in Parañaque, [10] as well as being a victim of an accommodation scam during a family trip to Tagaytay. [11]
