Vlogger Rosmar Tan withdraws Manila councilor bid

Content creator Rosmar Tan will no longer push her through with her bid for councilor in the Manila first district.
In a video taken by DZBB reporter Luisito Santos, Tan was seen at the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) on Thursday withdrawing her Certificate of Candidacy (COC).
The social media star, whose real name is Rosemarie Tan Pamulaklakin, earlier announced her intention to withdraw in a Facebook post.
"Para sa ikatatamihik ng lahat mag-wi-withdraw na po ako sa pagtakbo pero tuloy pa rin ang pagtulong sa mga tao," she wrote.
She did not specify the reason behind her withdrawal.
Tan was among the nearly 100 celebrities and social media personalities who filed their COCs in October 2024.
Aside from being a famous internet personality, Tan is also a businesswoman. She owns a beauty product line, pet spa, salon and several restaurants.
