Chef David Chang has become the first celebrity to win Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? in America according to the Guardian.

Chang is a renowned Asian American chef who founded the Momofuku restaurant group.

His $1 million question was “although he and his wife never touched a light switch for fear of being shocked, who was the first president to have electricity in the White House?”

Chang used his lifeline to phone a friend before guessing President Benjamin Harrison, despite expressing concern that Harrison may not have even been a president.

The 43-year-old entrepreneur will donate his cash to the Southern Smoke Foundation, which helps those in the F&B sector who have been affected by the Coronavirus pandemic.

“Having a million dollars right now, at this moment, is a game changer for many, many families,” Chang said.

In other news, a Singaporean mother who contracted Coronavirus has given birth to a baby with virus antibodies.
