Who’s The US' Highest-Paid Female Anchor? Hint: Hoda Kotb's Got Nothing On Her!

Chelsea Handler – $35 Million

Chelsea Handler is a veteran at hosting comedy talk shows. She once presented the late-night program “Chelsea Lately,” so it’s no surprise that Netflix paid her a handsome sum to create and host the talk show “Chelsea” from 2016 to 2017.

According to CheatSheet, that stint earned her an impressive $10 million a year from the streaming TV and movie service. This helped her build her $35 million fortune. Handler, who sold two projects to HBO Max and Peacock in 2020, also worked on documentaries including “Hello Privilege. It’s Me Chelsea” for her Netflix deal.
