Comedian Trevor Noah returned to the Grammys stage, hosting the 2025 ceremony. It adds another job to the former late-night TV star's resume ... one that has given him a sizeable net worth along the way.
Noah's turn hosting the 67th Grammy Awards marks his fifth time performing the gig. He first got the job in 2021. Late-night TV has long been a go-to source for award show hosts, and Noah proves why they're so successful.
It's been a few years since Noah walked away from The Daily Show. However, that decision hasn't exactly harmed his bank account. The comedian is reported to earn at least $20,000 for hosting the show.
In 2025, Noah's net worth stands at an estimated $100 million (per CelebrityNetWorth). That puts him in elite company when it comes to comedians and late-night TV hosts.
Noah's estimated net worth outvalues that of Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Stephen Colbert. But, Noah has a ways to go if he wants to catch up with Jon Stewart and his estimated net worth of $120 million.
How does Trevor Noah make his money now?
When Trevor Noah left The Daily Show, he also left behind a hefty paycheck. Reports indicated Noah's salary was $16 million per year.
Today, Noah has a few different income sources to fill the void left by leaving late-night TV. He continues to tour the world performing stand-up. He's got a gig scheduled in Abu Dhabi in April 2025.
Last year, Noah published the children's book Into The Uncut Grass. It was his second book following the 2016 best-selling memoir Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood.
Noah signed a deal with Spotify in 2023 to produce his podcast What Now? with Trevor Noah. The weekly podcast featured Noah and "celebrities, thought leaders, athletes, and friends to chat about the contemporary topics on everyone’s minds," according to Spotify.
