Megyn Kelly, NBC – $45 Million
Megyn Kelly made a name for herself as a Fox News reporter and anchor. After years of fame and several series on the network, she left in 2017. Unfortunately, things did not go as smoothly as she had intended. Her program was canceled in 2018, and her contract was terminated in January 2019. Regardless, she made a lot of money while working for NBC. According to some reports, she first agreed to a three-year, $69 million contract. This could explain why she has so much money right now. In the 2019 film Bombshell, Charlize Theron plays Kelly’s part in the harassment charges against Roger Ailes.
