Ayem Nour tops annual list of highest-paid television hosts

In 2024 it looked like the television host’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (October 26) that Nour is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between September 2025 and September 2026, 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 French television host 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 Nour Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Lyon Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondernour - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Ayem) and a fashion line called “Ayem Nour Seduction”.

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