The video from the competition was uploaded on TikTok on 26th October, the day of the event, and has since received over a whopping two million views. Another post showing an iconic edit of the performance was uploaded just a few days ago and has already racked up a million views, tallying up the Baldwin videos to three million views and a total of more than 200,000 likes!
Commenters from around the world flooded the post with words of astonishment and praise. Meanwhile, others were a bit disappointed in the audience, stating that the cosplayer deserved a bigger reaction.
