Aisha Tyler tops annual list of highest-paid television hosts

In 2022 it looked like the television host’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (March 14) that Tyler is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between February 2024 and February 2025, a nearly $60 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-actress-author-director has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Tyler Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “San Francisco Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondertyler - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Aisha) and a fashion line called “Aisha Tyler Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Aisha fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
