Well, well, well, look who's making bank across the pond! London Hughes, the comedy Beyoncé, truly living her best life in America. It seems she decided to leave behind the white boys' club of British standup and ventured to LA for fame and fortune. And boy did it pay off! Making more money in one year in America than her whole life in Britain? That's some serious transatlantic success right there.

But hey, can you really blame her for wanting a change? Sometimes you just need a fresh audience that appreciates your style of humor. Plus, I hear Hollywood loves accents. So here's to London Hughes for proving that sometimes all it takes is a leap across the pond to find your comedic goldmine. Cheers to you and your transatlantic triumphs! 🥂💰😄
