Bethany Black is one of the most popular and richest Comedian who was born on December 24, 1978 in England, England, United Kingdom. A British comedian best known for including controversial topics onto her standup routine. In 2011, she ranked #96 on The Independent’s “Pink List” of British LGBT advocates. In January 2015, she starred in a Channel 4 series called Cucumber.

Critics have regarded her material as being heavily influenced by Marilyn Manson‘s music.

Her career grew when in 2005 she opened the Manchester Pride festival. She also became a supporting act for other comedians such as Mick Miller and attracted positive reviews from other comedians such as Brendon Burns. In 2007, she became a finalist in the Chortle Student Comedy Awards. In 2008, Black started performing her show “Beth Becomes Her”, which tells the story of Black’s childhood. She had previously resisted performing material about her life story for fear of how her audience would react. However, the show went down well with most of the audience. It was nominated for the award for “Best Debut” at the Leicester Comedy Festival.

Yve Ngoo from BBC Tyne said in November 2006 that, “A seductively intriguing cross between Marilyn Manson and Corrie’s Hayley Cropper (I’m alluding to ambiguous androgyny), Bethany’s material is as black as her eye shadow and her delivery as dead-pan as a Goth at a garden centre.”

She was born and raised in Chorley, Lancashire, England, where she learned how to perform her unique style of black stand up comedy.
