Ève Ruggiéri tops annual list of highest-paid producers

In 2022 it looked like the producer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (November 21) that Ruggiéri is the highest-paid producer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $50 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 producer-television host has an estimated net worth of $245 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 Ruggiéri Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Limoges Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderuggiéri - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Ève) and a fashion line called “Ève Ruggiéri Seduction”.

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