Amy Schumer Is First Woman to Make Forbes’ Top 10 Highest Earning Comedians List, Kevin Hart Scores Top Spot

Score two for diversity. 

Kevin Hart was far and away the top earning comedian by pulling in $87.5 million and Schumer cracks into what is pretty much exclusively a boys club (no mention of Joan Rivers through the years seems odd) with $17 million. 

Also, it’s nice to see Dave Chappelle and Jim Gaffigan on the list as that would suggest that this top 10 list isn’t getting more balanced with comedians that are oft-appreciated for their craft.
