LuAnn de Lesseps tops annual list of highest-paid television hosts
In 2021 it looked like the television host’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Tuesday (April 23) that De Lesseps is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over her closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The American television host-model-singer has an estimated net worth of $185 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat De Lesseps Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Berlin Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderde Lesseps - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from LuAnn) and a fashion line called “LuAnn de Lesseps Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many LuAnn fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
