Marlène Schiappa tops annual list of highest-paid politicians

In 2021 it looked like the politician’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (May 1) that Schiappa is the highest-paid politician in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between April 2023 and April 2024, a nearly $40 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 politician-author has an estimated net worth of $215 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 Schiappa Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Paris Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderschiappa - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Marlène) and a fashion line called “Marlène Schiappa Seduction”.

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