  • Timberlake has earned big from hit songs like ‘SexyBack’ and films like The Social Network and Friends with Benefits, but his voice work for the Trolls franchise may be among his biggest paydays
  • Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone all dabbled in TV shows while JC Chasez wrote songs for David Archuleta, Sugababes, McFly, Basement Jaxx – and even for rival boy band Backstreet Boys

NSync was one of the biggest boy band acts in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Although the band was short-lived, their years in the limelight were marked by unprecedented fame and success. NSync completed five US tours and sold over 70 million copies, becoming the fifth-best-selling boy band in history, according to IMDB.

Recently, Lance Bass made headlines when he revealed the possibility of a reunion on the Pod Meet World podcast and picked Glee star Darren Criss to fill in for Justin Timberlake if he wasn’t available (inking another property deal, say).

Fatone has kept himself busy since NSync came to an end. After he became a global star, he tried his luck at acting and appeared in My Big Fat Greek Wedding and its sequel. According to FiveThirtyEight, the movie grossed over US$368 million worldwide despite having only a US$5 million budget.

He then became a mainstay on reality TV shows. He competed on Dancing with the Stars, hosted Family Feud, the Australian and US versions of The Singing Bee, and cooking shows Rewrapped and My Family Recipe Rocks. Fatone also co-hosted The Price is Right.

He currently serves as the presenter of the game show Common Knowledge.

4. Chris Kirkpatrick – US$10 million
