Jean Dujardin tops annual list of highest-paid comedians
In 2022 it looked like the comedian’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Saturday (February 1) that Dujardin is the highest-paid comedian in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between January 2024 and January 2025, a nearly $60 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 French comedian-actor-screenwriter has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Dujardin Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Rueil-Malmaison Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdujardin - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jean) and a fashion line called “Jean Dujardin Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Jean fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
