Greg Davies tops annual list of highest-paid comedians

In 2021 it looked like the comedian’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (May 1) that Davies is the highest-paid comedian in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between April 2023 and April 2024, a nearly $50 million lead over his 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 English comedian-actor has an estimated net worth of $245 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Davies Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “St Asaph Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdavies - England), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Greg) and a fashion line called “Greg Davies Seduction”.

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