Nikki Glaser has been working as a comedian and host since the early 2000’s, and can also add radio host, writer and producer to her resume which has led to an impressive net worth
Nikki Glaser has amassed an impressive net worth over the years, and is sure to continue pulling in some impressive figures as she hosts the Golden Globes for the second consecutive year.
Glaser, 41, came off a big year in 2025, which started with her making history in January, as she became the first female solo host of the Golden Globe Awards, and largely found praise for the gig, leading to a second invitation.
While she did face some backlash for her SNL hosting gig in November, with many slamming her for “gross” jokes, she is still finding herself popular enough, as she once again heads into a second hosting gig for the awards show, which hands out trophies from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

Before the comedian takes to the stage for another round at hosting and hopefully continuing to impress viewers at home and the assembled celebrities gathered in the audience, however, it’s worth noting just how much she has earned from her successful career.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Glaser has amassed a $10 million fortune as her net worth.
The money she has amassed came from decades of working in her field, with her first break coming when she appeared on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, making it to the Top 20, which raised her profile and brought other opportunities her way, including gigs and appearances on Inside Amy Schumer and Chelsea Lately.
In 2013, she began hosting her first show on MTV, Nikki & Sara Live, which was canceled after one season, but continued to help pave her path towards success.
By 2016, she became a regular standout on Comedy Central’s Roasts, notably participating in the roasts of Rob Lowe, Bruce Willis (2018), Alec Baldwin (2019) and Tom Brady (2024).
Overall, her net worth is amassed from decades of work as a comedian, television host, actress, writer, producer and podcast/radio host.
Ironically, one of her gigs that didn’t likely pay as much as the others was her first turn hosting the Golden Globes.
The exact amount she earned was not revealed, but she did share on The Howard Stern Show she was “paid pretty,” though not as much as a previous male host was.
Jerrod Carmichael, who hosted the 2023 show, infamously revealed during his monologue that he had been paid $500,000 for the gig.
While she didn’t share what she was paid, only that it was less than an unnamed male colleague (though the hint made it clear she was referring to Carmichael), Glaser admitted she was okay with it during her appearance on Stern’s show, also admitting she would likely negotiate for a better pay day if she was asked to come back.
“There was a past host who said how much he got paid in his monologue and I got less than that, but that’s OK,” she said.
“I’ll get more next year. I feel well paid for what I do. I’m alright.”
