Resurrecting Rides host, Chris Redd, is known for cracking jokes. Although he’s got a huge net worth, he joked that he feels “sad 365 days a year” despite people thinking he “lives the dream”.
Chris Redd mainly performed at stand-up comedy gigs until he secured a regular slot on Saturday Night Live. He’s now the host of Netflix‘s Resurrected Rides, and it’s no doubt he lives a luxury life of wealth.
Chris Redd has a huge net worth
Chris Redd has a $10 million net worth, as per Showbiz Cheat Sheet, which makes him richer than co-star Pete Davidson. His biggest role before SNL was as Hunter in film, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping.
Redd has also had roles in other productions, such as the TV shows Chicago P.D. and Empire. He is now making his way into reality TV as the new host of Pimp My Ride revival, Resurrected Rides.
He received the Emmy Award in 2018 for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for the Saturday Night Live song, Come Back, Barack, just a year after he starred in Netflix special, Disjointed.
Fans think he ‘lives the dream’
Chris may have secured the ultimate goal of getting a regular SNL slot, which he’s now left, but he claimed people think he’s “living the dream”. However, he says the show was not that.
He called SNL a “past employer,” adding he’s “grateful, blessed, and the show changed his life”. “But ‘dream’? You think I’d be 5ft 6in in my dreams?! I’d be 6ft 10in with wings, that’s a dream,” Redd added.
Redd secured a stint on SNL in 2017 despite a previous unsuccessful audition, until his departure in 2022. He’s also featured in ten films, such as Joker, and even appeared as a brief character on The Simpsons!
Chris jokes that he’s “sad 365 days of the year” and “wishes he had seasonal depression”. During a stand-up gig, he had the audience cackling with laughter as he joked about setting up his fall outfits.
He joked about those with SAD, “Stay on that side, yo, with your tap in tap out sad a**. Is it fall? The leaves are brown. I can’t escape it. ‘March, I get so sad around March’.”
