Catt Sadler - $3 million
Back in 2017, Catt Sadler gave one of the most revealing exposés as an E! News anchor in entertainment news - her annual salary. She worked for twelve years with the network before she signed off the air once she found out that she was only making half of what her co-host was making.
In Sadler's words, she was making $600,000 a year, while her co-host, Jason Kennedy, was making almost double. There's no bad blood between the two, but we understand why she left, especially was they were similarly positioned within the network.
