If there is indeed an emblematic figure of television in recent years, it is Cyril Hanouna. The presenter of Do not touch My TV (TPMP) on C8 is now one of the highest paid television hosts in France. Preferring to remain discreet because he considers his salary indecent, he nevertheless expressed himself on this subject on his show: “I find that we are paid too much compared to what we do”. According to the Canard Enchaîné in 2019, Cyril Hanouna would receive around 40,000 euros per month. It should be noted that this remuneration does not take into account the dividends that his production company H2O brings him (more than 2 million euros in 2015, still according to the satirical newspaper).
