American television host, comedian, and writer Jimmy Kimmel has a total net worth of $50 million. According to Celebrity Net Worth, the majority of Kimmel's earnings come from his long-running late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! However, before Jimmy became one of the most well-known talk show hosts, he began his career as a morning DJ at a radio station.
During the late 1900s, Jimmy quickly became a familiar face on shows such as Win Ben Stein's Money and The Man Show. It was in 2003 when he started the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show.
Aside from his late-night show, Kimmel's earnings can also be attributed to his other side ventures. This includes hosting huge award shows and events, such as the Emmys and the Oscars. Kimmel has also produced documentaries, as well as game shows.
How much does Jimmy Kimmel earn as a host on his late-night show?

Why did Jimmy Kimmel get Italian citizenship?
During an interview on The Sarah Silverman Podcast, Kimmel revealed that he has secured Italian citizenship this year. One of the reasons that made him feel the need to get another citizenship is because of the growing turmoil in the US' political situation.
Sarah Silverman mentioned:
"A lot of people I know are thinking about, where are they going to get citizenship?"
To which Jimmy responded, saying:
"I did get Italian citizenship... What's going on is as bad as you thought it was gonna be. It's so much worse – it's just unbelievable. I feel like it's probably even worse than he would like it to be," referring to President Trump.
Kimmel has Italian roots. While attending the Italian Republic Day celebration in Los Angeles, he told the audience:
"I have just obtained citizenship, thanks to my beloved grandmother Edith, whose family came from Candida, in the province of Avellino. She used to repeat to me, 'You have the brain of a hamster!'"
Since President Trump was re-elected, many celebrities and A-listers have decided to leave the country. For instance, Rosie O’Donnell, who has publicly feuded with Trump over the years, has left for Ireland with her adopted child, saying that she is concerned for her child's safety because of the chaotic political environment. The well-known Ellen DeGeneres also decided to move to the UK last year with her wife, Portia de Rossi.
