From an early age, Brian became interested in the performing arts, particularly singing and dancing. This only developed as he was growing up, and once in Billie Barry Stage School in Dublin, Brian started featuring in stage and TV roles. He then started an R&B group called Cartel, but soon after Brian auditioned for an available place in the boy group Westlife, and alongside Nicky Bryne, Kian Egan, Shane Filan and Mark Feehily, Brian became a part of the boy band, that would become extremely popular in Ireland in the early 2000s. Brian remained in the group until 2004, during which time they released four studio albums, “Westlife” (1999), “Coast to Coast” (2000), “World of Our Own” (2001), and “Turnaround”. All four albums topped the Ireland chart, while the first three sold millions of copies worldwide, which certainly increased Brian’s net worth. Their second album “Coast to Coast”, achieved six-times platinum status in Britain, and nine times platinum in the Philippines.
Following his departure from the band in 2004, Brian signed as a solo artist with Sony BMG, and released his debut solo album later the same year. The album “Irish Son”, wasn’t as popular as the releases of Westlife, though his single “Almost Here” – actually a duet with Delta Goodrem – topped the Australian and Ireland charts, and achieved platinum status in Australia, which added a considerable amount to his net worth.
More turbulence followed as Brian got into a disagreement with Sony BMG agents over the course his music career was taking, which resulted in Brian leaving the label and starting his own BMF Records. His second album “Set in Stone” was released through his record label, but there was no improvement in commercial success, so he came to an agreement with Universal Music Australia, through which he released the single “Like Only a Woman Can” reaching No. 13 on the charts. He continued to make music, and in 2010 released his third album “Wall of Soundz”, which spawned such hits as “Just Say So”, a duet with Kevin Rudolf, which topped the Australian charts and achieved platinum status there, and “Chemical Rush” which peaked at No. 12.
His latest album came out in 2013, “The Irish Connection”, a cover album of popular Irish songs that have Brian in love with the music of his native country, but which didn’t strike a chord with the public, reaching only No. 75 on the Irish chart, and No. 66 on Australian charts.
Since then, Brian has become more focused on his career on television; he was the judge in “Australia’s Got Talent” from 2010 to 2012, and has featured as a contestant in such shows as “The Chase: Celebrity Special” in 2014, “The Chase: Text Santa Special” (2015), and ”Catchphrase: Celebrity Couples Special” also in 2015. Most recently Brian served as a presenter in the show “Who’s Doing the Dishes” (2014-2016), among many other appearances, all of which have helped increase his net worth.
When it comes to his personal life, Brian has two marriages behind him and two children from those relationships. Back in 2002, he married singer Kerry Katona, but the couple separated in 2004, and two years later their divorce was official. Brian has two daughters with Kerry. In 2004 he started a romantic relationship with actress and singer Delta Goodrem, which lasted until 2011. The following year he married Irish model Vogue Williams, but the couple separated in 2015. He is apparently single at the moment.

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.

His most notable appearances were in a movie called “21 and a Wake-Up”, where he played Dr. Tom Dury, in “Killer Movie” as Ted Buckley, in “Longshot” as a pizzeria worker, and in “Greetings from Tucson” as Jay Dugray.

JC Chasez’s debut album “Schizophrenic” appeared in 2004 and was able to take 17th chart position in the US and 46th position in the United Kingdom.
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.
