So without further ado, here are the most popular comedians in the world:
https://writtenfacts.com/most-popular-co...le%206%206.
1 Chris Rock
2 Kevin Hart
3 Tig Notaro
4 Bill Burr
5 Dave Chappelle
6 Jim Gaffigan
7 Jerry Seinfeld
8 Mike Birbiglia
9 Louis C.K
10 Amy Schumer
But we already knew to be skeptical of anything you present as fact.
Looking at that Louis CK entry, I could tell this was out of date. It still talks like he's doing Louie and mentions nothing about his making a perverted ass out of himself. For what it's worth, here's another list more recent: https://www.humorsearch.com/2021-standup...ns-ranked/
Chappelle's at #2, second only to Bill Burr. That said, I'm not sure how someone can objectively rank them, though. Is there some sort of RateYourMusic/TheyShootPicturesDontThey/AcclaimedMusic style consensus ranking of stand-up comedians?
Well, if we just look at the money they're getting for their Netflix specials, the top two Netflix deals are Jerry Seinfeld, who Netflix is paying just over $ 500 million to for a five year deal. Dave Chappelle got the 2nd highest payday earlier in 2016, with $ 60 million, but that was only for three specials.
