Chiquinquirá Delgado 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 Saturday (February 15) that Delgado is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between January 2024 and January 2025, a nearly $20 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 Venezuelan television host-model-actress has an estimated net worth of $145 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 Delgado Burger” chain) in Caracas, a Football Team (the “Maracaibo Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdelgado - Venezuela), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Chiquinquirá) and a fashion line called “Chiquinquirá Delgado Seduction”.

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