Ty Herndon Net Worth $8 million
Ty was actually raised in Butler, Alabama. He showed an interest in music during his teenage years, often playing piano and singing Gospel music. Herndon attended Austin High School in Decatur, Alabama, and subsequently moved to Nashville where he would go on to pursue his music career. However, Ty’s plans didn’t live-up to their full potential, and he ended up moving to Texas. Herndon became the lead singer for Tennessee River Boys, a band that was performing in theme parks during the early ‘80s. Later on, the band was renamed into Diamond Rio. Herndon eventually left the band joining the competition ‘’Star Search’’ in 1985.
He was gaining recognition and popularity amongst the fans of the country genre, and was named the Texas Entertainer of the Year in 1993, and things took a turn for the better and Ty finally got a deal with Epic Records.
He debuted with a single ‘’What Mattered Most’’ which took a first place on Hot Country Singles & Tracks. Despite the financial success it had made, the song received mixed reviews by the music experts. Having released the lead single, Herndon went on to release the album of the same title, which did well on charts and became one of the Top 10 Country albums in 1995, being played on 133 radio stations in the first week of release, so breaking several records. Ty’s next single was ‘’I Want My Goodbye Back’’ followed by a duet with Stephanie Bentley entitled ‘’Heart Half Empty’’, both charting well.
Herndon’s second album was released in 1996 and entitled ‘’Living in a Moment’’, reaching first place on country charts. Other acclaimed singles were ‘’She Wants to Begin Again’’ followed by ‘’Loved Too Much’’ and ‘’I Have to Surrender’’. However, the second album wasn’t as successful as the first one. Two years later, Herndon released his third album – ‘’Big Hopes’’. The single ‘’It Must Be Love’’, a collaboration with Doug Virden and Drew Womack peaked at number one on country music charts, the third number one single of his career. The next two albums, ‘’Steam’’ and ‘’No Mercy’’, released respectively in 1999 and 2000 didn’t live up the Ty’s previous success, so in 2002, instead another studio album, he released a compilation of greatest hits entitled ‘’This Is Ty Herndon: Greatest Hits’’, but due to the lack of success, he ended up being released from Epic Records.
As of 2010, Herndon released ‘’ Journey On’’, a Christian contemporary album for the FUNL music label, and the same year received a Dove award for Best Bluegrass Recorded Song for ‘’When We Fly’’.
In his personal life, Ty has been married and divorced twice – he came out as gay in an interview with ‘’People Magazine’’ in 2014, and is in a relationship with Matt Collum.

JC Chasez Net Worth
Joshua Scott “JC” Chasez, also known as JC Chasez, Big Daddy or J. C. Chasez is a white American who was born on August 8 1976 in Washington, United States of America, but he was raised in Bowie, Maryland after he was adopted by Roy and Karen Chasez when Joshua’s biological mother entrusted care of him at the age of 5. Chasez has never known his biological father and he seems not to have any plans to search for him. So JC Chasez grew-up in his new family with a younger brother Tyler and a sister Heather. As a child he attended Robert Goddart Middle School and always loved dancing during school years.
JC Chasez Net Worth $30 Million
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. N’Sync members acheived not only worldwide recognition after releasing their albums and singles, but also earned huge amounts of money from live performances and different merchandise.
Since 2002 JC Chasez has tried several different aspects of the entertainment industry – he has written songs, produced records, danced and even appeared in some movies. 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. But mostly he has become known as a singer, because after leaving ‘N Sync he started his own solo career and released his first solo single “Blowin’ Me Up (With Her Love)” in 2002. 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.

Gotye Net Worth
Wouter “Wally” De Backer was born 21 May 1980, in Bruges, Belgium, and under the stage name of Gotye, he is now known around the world as an outstanding instrumentalist and singer, having reached #1 on the US Billboard chart, and winning five Aria Awards.
So just how rich is Goyte? Sources estimate that currently he has a net worth of $1.5 million, accumulated during a career in the music industry which has so far spanned not much over 10 years.
Gotye Net Worth $1.5 Million
Gotye started his musical career at early age. He spent all of his childhood in Australia (the family moved away from Belgium when he was only two years old), and started learning to play various musical instruments at school in Sydney. He met some like-minded young teens and they started a school band called Downstares; one of the band members, Lucas Taranto, still plays in Gotye’s live shows. After another relocation, this time to Melbourne, where the artist finished his Bachelor of Arts, he received an old record collection from a neighbor, and from that point in 2001, his career started picking up.
Goyte recorded his first tracks primarily using samples, designed the cover of the CD himself, and made 50 copies. He sent them to more or less influential radio stations around the country, and made ‘phone calls to make sure they were received. However, a solo career was a while coming, and hasn’t been the only way to fill Gotye’s pockets. Since 2002, Gotye has been a member of indie pop band called “The Basics”, who have released three studio albums along with many other recordings and singles. This, of course, has notably contributed to the artist’s net worth. It is important to mention that Gotye’s vocal abilities are often compared to those of Sting and Peter Gabriel.
As they say, money do not come as easily and quickly as we would wish. Only in 2011, when Gotye released a single called Somebody That I Used to Know which made him a world known star, has his income started reaching those dreams. As mentioned before, the single reached the first place of the Billboard Hot 100 charts and made him famous all over the globe. Gotye as a solo artist has released three studio albums so far. As a strong believer of the indie movement, he never signed contracts with any record label, the albums were released independently. In addition to the three albums, Gotye has released an album combined of remixes of songs written in his early career. The money received from selling the mentioned albums skyrocketed to the overall amount of Gotye net worth.
Gotye is now considered to be one of the most successful musicians of today, as in his adopted Australia he managed to become the fifth artist to reach first place in the Billboard Hot 100 and the second artist from his native Belgium (we compare so because the artist is half- Australian, half- Belgian). Not only is he a great singer, but also a world renowned multi- instrumentalist. He is the best at playing the piano and the drums though.
Money makes the world go round, but acceptance is nice too. Goyte has received five ARIA awards – having been nominated for seven in 2011 alone – as well as three Grammy awards. The three Grammy awards were received at the same ceremony, the 55th Annual Grammy Awards to which the singer’s reaction was: “I often feel more of a tinkerer, less of a musician”.
Little is known of Goyte’s private life, but outside music he is interested in politics, even rumoured to be considering standing for the Victorian parliament. For the sake of his many fans, we can hope that he prefers to continue his music career, full time.
