There's a lot of musicians who are huge in Europe, but not in the US. Robbie Williams, Anastacia, most of Eurodance,... What musicians are the other way round?

I think the U.S. exports a fair amount of media and personalities involved in it, while other countries don't necessarily do as much. RRR or Ne Zha 2 might have been box office monsters in India or China (respectively) but not nearly as much here, while Avengers and the like do absolute numbers the world over. Kpop has started to gain international appeal (e.g. BTS) but thats about it.

I think a fair amount of country likely doesn't escape the states. Or at least I haven't heard of a big chunk of folks rockin out to Shania Twain or whatev.

Unfortunately I can report that Shania Twain scored a couple of big hits this side of the pond

Her ex-husband produced most of Def Leppards albums through the 1990s so he has ties to UK radio.

That don't impress me much.
