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

Kelly Ripa – $120 Million

Kelly Ripa started as an actress in the soap opera “All My Children.” But she really hit her stride—and made a fortune worth $120 million— as a host. People now know her best as the other half of the hit syndicated talk show “Live With Kelly And Ryan,” which is produced by ABC’s WABC-TV digital channel. 

Ripa has been working on the program since the early ’00s and even got to host it solo in 2011. That said, she’s definitely earned the $22 million a year she receives for entertaining Americans with lifestyle segments and celebrity interviews every morning. She even received a Daytime Emmy nomination in 2020 for her work!
