Kevin Hart News: Actor Lands Second Spot In 'Forbes' 'World's Highest Paid' Comedian List, Who Beat Him For Number 1? [VIDEO]
Good news and bad news for Kevin Hart this morning.
The comedian and Ride Along actor has made Forbes magazine’s latest list of highest paid comedians. The bad news? He’s bested by veteran Jerry Seinfeld, making Hart come in at a close second.
But that’s still a bump up from the fifth place he landed back in 2013, which was the last time the magazine released the list.

Since then, starring in movies like Think Like Man Too, Get Hard, The Wedding Ringer and Ride Along has helped Hart make his way up the list as he made $28.5 million from June 1, 2014 to June 1 of this year.
On top of that, Hart, who the magazine dubbed “a hot commodity” is still going around the country in standup comedy tours, the current one being What Now, which is also getting lots of positive reaction, per usual. His average is about 8,000 attendees per show for his tours in general.
Of course 2016 is looking up for him, too. He is slated to star in Ride Along 2 and is putting on his producer hat for the film as well.
On a side note, he could also be tying the knot with his longtime girlfriend Eniko Parrish, sometime next year as well.
As for Seinfeld, he’s just ahead of Hart as he brought in $36 million for the same time period. Interestingly enough, his classic show Seinfeld is what still brings in much of his income.
