Belinda was born into a large family, the eldest of seven children. When she was five years old, her father abandoned the family and when her mother re-married, she didn’t have a close relationship with her stepfather. She attended Newbury Park High School, and then left home when she turned 19 years old.
Belinda started to pursue a career in music and became part of the punk rock band the Germs as their drummer. She used the name Dottie Danger, and also did back-up vocals for Black Randy and the Metrosquad. After leaving the Germs, she co-founded the Misfits who would later become known as the Go-Go’s, with original band members including Jane Wiedlin, Elissa Bello, and Margot Olavarria. After Bello and Olavarria left the group, Charlotte Caffey joined the band along with Kathy Valentine and Gina Schock. They became very popular during the 1980s and were the first all-female band to write their own music, achieving a number one album entitled “Beauty and the Beat”. Some of their hit songs included “Our Lips Are Sealed” and “We Got the Beat”. They would go on and record two more albums entitled “Vacation” and “Head over Heels”. In 1984, Carlisle would try her hand at acting in the film “Swing Shift” which starred Kurt Russel, and a year later the Go-Go’s would disband, leading Belinda into a solo career.
Carlisle released her first self-titled album in 1986, and it would prove to be very popular in Canada and the US. Some of the songs she released include “I Feel the Magic”, “Since You’ve Been Gone”, and “Mad About You”, and her songs would be featured in movies such as “Mannequin”, “Burglar”, and “Out of Bounds”. In 1987 she released “Heaven on Earth” which was the marking of a change in her musical style. She would get nominated for several awards, and then released the hit song “Heaven Is a Place on Earth”, which would become the number one song in several countries, and she would go on to release the song “I Get Weak”. She went on a tour to promote the album and in 1989 released the platinum certified “Runaway Horses”, which included the songs “Summer Rain” and “Whatever it Takes” which featured Bryan Adams. A year later, the Go-Gos would reunite to support their compilation album “Greatest”.
Belinda would continue her solo career in the 1990s, releasing “Live Your Life Be Free” and “The Best of Belinda, Volume 1”. In 1993, she released “Real” with most of the songs in the album written by her. The following year the Go-Go’s toured once more for “Return to the Valley of The Go-Go’s”, and Carlisle would start working on her sixth solo album “A Woman and a Man”, which revitalized her career, especially in Europe. In 1999, she released a greatest hits album entitled “A Place on Earth: The Greatest Hits” and would then start working on new material for the Go-Go’s which became “God Bless the Go-Go’s”. Her latest project was 2007’s “Voila” which marked her first album in more than 10 years. She continues making regular appearances on television, and also continues to tour.
For her personal life, Carlisle married film producer Morgan Mason in 1986; they have a son, and their family currently resides in both France and the US.

Today JC Chasez is mainly known as an American boy band ‘N Sync member, occasional actor, singer, dancer and songwriter. Today he has a net worth of $30 million, But Joshua’s first steps in his future career weren’t so notable for the rest of the world. As a boy JC Chasez was extremely shy, but he was able to fight with his modesty and joined the Mickey Mouse Club.
The first real success came for Chasez after the formatIon of a band called ‘N Sync which has become extremely popular in the USA and Europe from 2000. Although ‘N Sync broke up in 2002, the have sold more that 9.9 million copies of their album “No Strings Attached”. This was one of the biggest investments in Joshua’s net worth, but the band have licensed their likenesses and released microphones, lip balm, marionettes, books, key chains, cloths and video games with their emblem. The band has also been dealing with McDonalds, Chilli’s Grill & Bar. In 2009 N’Sync was even immortalized in wax In New York’s Madame Tussaunds museum and can be seen there until today.

Unfortunately, nowadays JC Chasez’s career isn’t as successful as it was 10 years ago. His last released solo album “The Story of Kate” in 2007 didn’t appear in any charts, and since then JC Chasez has just made appearances in some other albums as a guest. He was talking about ‘N Sync reunion in 2011, but until today this ambition has not come to fruition.

Neal Schon Net Worth
Neal George Joseph Schon was born on 27th February 1954 at Tinker AFB (Air Force Base), Oklahoma USA, of Italian and German descent. Neal Schon is a rock guitarist, songwriter and vocalist, best known for being an important member of several hugely popular bands, namely Santana, Bad English and Journey.
So just how rich is Neal Schon? Neal’s net worth has been calculated to be over $30 million, amassed during his successful career of more than 40 years in the music industry.
Neal Schon Net Worth $30 Million
Neal Schon was lucky to be born into a musical family – his father Mathew Schon was a famous musician and mother Barbara Schon sang in a band. So Schon picked his first guitar at the age of five years, and starting at early age is usually a way to success. His first career steps started at the age of 15 with the band Santana, in preference to joining Eric Clapton in the band Derek and the Dominos, and debuting with some vocals on Santana’s album Santana III. Being such a great musician at such young age with the possibility to choose between two iconic bands, he went on and started making his money. He also played for Azteca but very briefly.
In 1973 Neal Schon formed his now legendary band Journey. He subsequently released five solo albums, and fourteen studio albums with the band. This must be the main flow into his net worth. Importantly, he is the only band member who has not changed through the years. He has taken part in every tour of the band, and sang on all their albums, so no doubt this longevity with Journey has increased the overall amount of Neal Schon’s net worth as well. Apart from this, he has also collaborated with famous musicians such as keyboardist Jan Hammer, Sammy Hagar and Paul Rodgers on short-term projects.
Neal Schon is as great a vocalist, as he is a guitar virtuoso. Two talents double the money earned, does it not? Let’s talk about his musical influences, of whom there were plenty. He has said that he was highly influenced by the 1960’s, musicians from that era such as Gladys Knight and Aretha Franklin. Then he put some blues to the mix, namely B.B. King and added some guitar-based influences, including of course Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton as well as Wes Montgomery. This is probably Neal Schon’s key to fame – adding the best ingredients from different musical eras.
Schon was always proud of his guitars. He started with acoustic Stella guitar followed by Gibson ES-335. At present he became interested in Xotic guitars. Schon was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in August 2013, which made him, if possible, even more famous. This is considered to be an accomplishment of a lifetime for any musician.
In his not-so-private personal life, Neal Schon has married five times, first to Tena Austin(1976-86), then Beth Buckley(1987-92), Dina Gioeli(1993-99), and Amber Kozan(2001-08). In 2013 he married Michaele Salahi. He has five children.
