MTV's "Catfish" has been on since 2012 and fans cannot get enough! The show's host, Nev Schulman, who has been around for all 8 seasons, has been helping emotionally entangles people discover whether their online relationship is real or fake. Considering the star has returned for season 8, alongside new co-host, Kamie Crawford, it's safe to say he is back to making quite the pretty paycheck.
In addition to his time on "Catfish", Nev has also joined the cast of "Dancing With The Stars", this year, so it's safe to say he's working his behind off! With a net worth of $500,000, fans have wondered how much Nev has made from the MTV show, and we're diving into that, now!
How Much Does Nev Schulman Make?
MTV certainly has an act for coming out with some of the most fascinating shows, and
"Catfish" is certainly one of them! The show first came out back in 2012 and followed the lives of love-struck people who want to know if the person they've been online dating with is real or catfishing them. The show, hosted by Nev Schulman and Max Joseph, has blown up since its debut, and has easily become one of the most prominent shows on the network, competing against fan-favorite shows such as "Real World", "Siesta Key" and "Double Shot At Love".
Although Max Joseph stepped away from his co-hosting gig after season 7, Kamie Crawford has officially taken over alongside Nev. After 8 years on camera, fans of the show are curious as to how much Schulman has managed to make during his time as the lead host. While MTV has never disclosed Nev's salary, a number of sources revealed that the star makes $100,000 per episode! With an average of 16 episodes this season, it is estimated that Nev will walk away with $1.6 million.
Nev Schulman has definitely been the face of the show, however, fans are convinced that his impressive $100,000 per episode salary must be a new adjustment considering the star's net worth is only listed at $500,000. The show gains nearly half a million viewers per episode, which is quite impressive for a reality show that is nearing a decade on air. While the numbers have definitely gone up over the past few years, odds so has Nev's salary.
Fans have definitely been missing on-screen fav, Max Joseph, however, they are certainly loving Kamie Crawford and the energy she is bringing to the show. The show saw a series of guest co-hosts all throughout season 7, after Joseph's departure, and Crawford stood out, leading producers to bring her in full time. With Nev Schulman making six figures, it's assumed that Kamie is making less as a newbie, however, with a whopping $2 million reported net worth, he isn't at all worried about it.
