Jimmy Kimmel has told Wanda Sykes she is probably being “robbed” over her fee for hosting this year’s Oscars. Sykes is one of three main hosts for this year’s Academy Awards ceremony, alongside Amy Schumer and Regina Hall.

During an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kimmel asked Sykes if she would say how much she’s getting paid for the high-profile job.

Sykes replied: “I don’t even know. It’s like scale, probably. ” “Scale” is the minimum wage set by the Screen Actors Guild. Kimmel then told her: “It’s less than that.

I got paid $15,000 to host the Oscars, and there’s one of me. You guys are probably gonna have to split all that! It sounds like a lot for one night, but it’s months of work leading up to it.
