Padma Lakshmi – $40 Million

Padma Lakshmi wouldn’t be a stranger to foodies or people who devote their time to mouth-watering delicacies on cooking programs. She hosts the cooking competition show, “Top Chef,” which airs on Bravo.
You might think life as a food host wouldn’t be so lucrative but think again. Lakshmi’s net worth is a whopping $40 million. But she’s been able to earn that much because she’s done other things as well, like writing cookbooks and acting in series and movies. She launched a new food series titled “Taste the Nation with Padma Lakshmi” in 2021.
