A Look into the Generous Salaries of Australia’s Top TV Hosts

Richard Wilkins – $400K per Year

Born in Auckland, New Zealand, Richard Wilkins is as Aussie as a Vegemite sandwich with a cold beer on the side! Working steadily in broadcasting since the late ’80s, he combines his role as a “Weekend Today” co-host with his job as smoothfm’s weekend announcer. Additionally, he’s Nine Network’s entertainment editor.

Indeed a versatile bloke, Wilkins was also the singer of the Wilde and Reckless band, which toured with the fabulous Grace Jones in the land down under. He also authored the autobiography “Black Ties, Red Carpets, Green Rooms.” His annual salary? A cool $400K, as reported by Now to Love.
