Sia Net Worth $20 Million
Sia has artistic parents – her father, Phil Colson was a musician, while her mother was an art lecturer, and singer/actor Kevin Colson is her uncle. She went to Adelaide High School, where she started taking music seriously. Before that, she would sing in the way of Aretha Franklin, Sting and other musicians.
She launched her career in 1993 by joining the acid jazz band Crisp, with which she worked on two EPs before the band ceased to exist, after which Sia, now an accomplished musician, wanted to make a solo name for herself, and started working on her debut album. Signed to Flavoured Records in Australia, she released “Only See” which sold 1,200 copies, and dissatisfied with the sales and promotion, she moved to London with her then-boyfriend Dan Pontiflex. There she collaborated with Zero 7, a downtempo duo, on their albums “Simple Things” (2001), “When It Falls” (2004) and “The Garden”, as an unofficial vocalist. She also had a brief collaboration with Jamiroquai.
Her next move was signing a contract with Dance Pool, a sub-label of Sony Music, through which she released her second album – “Healing Is Difficult”. Unfortunately, she didn’t have much luck, and left the label to sign with Go! Beat, a part of the Universal Music Group. The new album didn’t come out until 2004, but she was focused more on writing, and won the Breakthrough Songwriter award at the APRA Awards of 2002. In 2004, she released “Colour the Small One”, her third album, but still lacked commercial success.
She then relocated to New York and started a tour across the US, promoting her past material and introducing new works. This left a positive mark on Sia, as her next album, “Some People Have Real Problems”, reached No. 26 on the US Billboard 200, and achieved gold status in Australia, which increased her net worth and signified an improvement in her musical career. This proved to be right, as Sia’s next releases were quite extraordinary, since “We Are Born” (2010), “1000 Forms of Fear” (2014), and “This Is Acting” (2016), have reached platinum status in several countries, while the album from 2014 topped the US Billboard 200 chart, all of which considerably increased her net worth.
Aside from studio albums, Sia has also released six live albums, further increasing her wealth, and a live DVD – “TV Is My Parent” – back in 2009, which also added a considerable amount.
When it comes to her personal life, Sia has had her way; she suffered from depression, and even wrote a suicide note, and was addicted to alcohol and painkillers, all because of the premature death of her boyfriend, Dan Pontifex. She is also suffering from Graves disease, which means that her thyroid gland is over-active.
She was married to filmmaker Erik Anders Lang from 2014 until late 2016.
Sia is a vegan and supports organizations that help animals, for which endeavors she earned a nomination for a 2016 Libby Award for “Best Voice for Animals”.

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.

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.
