Posted by | Ray Cornelius 

Congratulations to Kevin Hart! FORBES has named him the highest paid comedian of 2016. The newly married star of “Ride Along” “What Now?” “Get Hard” and “The Real Husbands of Hollywood,” beat out Jerry Seinfield and earned a whopping $87.5 million dollars between June 2015 and June 2016.

In addition to the honor, Hart is also the newest celebrity to grace the covers of EBONY magazine. According to the behind-the-scenes video below, his photoshoot was inspired by James Bond movies and fashions of the 1950’s.

“I’m not a content guy. Even with all the achievements, it’s not enough because there’s so much more life to live, and there’s so much more to do and accomplish,” explains Hart to EBONY. “I think the thing that honestly keeps me going is the fact that it’s out there for the taking. I don’t think people really understand that you get out of life what you put into it. The more blood, sweat and tears you have behind the passion, the more rewards you’ll see behind the work.”
