Shows like The Mickey Mouse Club, Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place launched the careers of Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers

Gosling made his money from films like The Notebook, La La Land and Blade Runner 2049, while many of his former co-stars have earned big as coaches on The Voice

Many of the wealthiest Hollywood stars share the same “cradle”: the House of Mouse’s Disney Channel. These wholesome and cute talents of The Mickey Mouse Club, Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place have been part of many viewers’ childhoods for decades.

Now all grown up, they are continuing to add to their legacies – and their bank balances. Most recently, Ryan Gosling (once of The Mickey Mouse Club) just starred in Netflix’s The Gray Man and his turn as Ken in the upcoming Barbie is highly anticipated. Meanwhile, fans can’t wait to see Britney Spears’ return to the music scene with her duet with Elton John set to drop soon, while her ex, Justin Timberlake, is also back in the next Netflix thriller Reptile.

But which of these stars has the fattest bank account?

10. Demi Lovato: US$40 million

After rising to fame in Camp Rock (2008), Demi Lovato, who uses both they/them and she/her pronouns, appeared in the Disney sitcom Sonny With a Chance (2009-2011) and the film Princess Protection Program (2009) before becoming a pop star. Besides a fruitful music career, The X Factor’s youngest coach (just 19 years old when she took the role) bagged a cool US$2 million a year from that show alone, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

8 and 9. Kevin and Joe Jonas: US$40 million each

The Jonas Brothers became a household name thanks to Camp Rock. Two of the three brothers – Kevin, 34, and Joe, 32 – have made a more than useful US$40 million each, mostly from the group’s music and acting roles.
