Adina Howard Net Worth $1.5 million
Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Howard broke into the music world in 1995 when she released her album “Do You Wanna Ride?”, which immediately became a chart-topper thanks largely to her single “Freak Like Me” that became one of most iconic songs. The album became certified gold and was followed with other hit singles “It’s All About You” and “My Up and Down”. Her net worth was well established.
That same year, Howard worked with artist Warren G and recorded the song “What’s Love Got to Do With It” that was included on the soundtrack of the movie “Police Story 3: Super Cop”. The song also became a hit, and made her one of the top R&B singers of the’90’s. The sales of her album and popularity of her songs helped launched her career and added to her net worth.
After two years, in 1997 Howard prepared for her next album “Welcome to Fantasy Island”. The album received okay reviews, although never officially released. Years later, the album was leaked onto the internet and became a collector’s item among her fans, selling for a huge amount on eBay.
Despite the album not being officially released, one of the songs in it entitled “T-Shirt & Panties” a song she did with Jamie Foxx became a hit and was included on the soundtrack of the movie “Woo”.
During the early 2000’s, Howard also ventured into the world of film and was included in the independent film “High Freakquency” in which she worked with John Witherspoon and Deon Richmond. Later in 2002, she filmed another movie entitled “Casanova’s Demise” with director Tigre Hill. Her movie projects also helped with her career and her wealth.
In 2004, she came back to singing and released her third album “The Second Coming” but it performed poorly in sales and on the charts partly due to lack of promotion. She followed it with another album in 2007 entitled “Private Show” but that also did not perform well.
Howard decided to stay away from music for a while, and to study culinary arts. In 2012 she graduated from Le Cordon Bleu and took home a degree in Associates in Culinary Arts. After a year she also came up with her fifth album “The Switch Up”, which slightly gained traction, earning positive reviews and even winning an award at the 2013 UB Honors.
In 2015, Howard released a documentary about her life entitled “Adina Howard 20: A Story of Sexual Liberation”.
Today, Howard is still active in the music industry. In 2017, she plans to release her seventh album “Resurrection” and will also make an appearance in another documentary entitled “A Fatherless America”.
In terms of her personal life, Howard has been married to Sherman Jordan since 2011.

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.

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.
