Shirley Owens Net Worth $3 Million
Shirley grew up in Passaic, New Jersey, as her family moved while she was still a child. She attended Passaic High School, where she met other members of The Shirelles and soon started performing at school dances and talents shows, a modest start to her net worth. They made a breakthrough in 1958, when they signed with “Tiara Records”, as their manager was Florence Greenberg, the owner of this production house. They released their first single “I Met Him On A Sunday” in 1959 which became a local hit. After the initial success, Florence sold the rights of the group to “Decca Records”, but their next releases didn`t make it to the chart, and as a result, the group was waived by Decca Records. Since Florence was still their manager, she signed them with her new record label “Scepter Records”. Their first full length album was released in 1961, entitled “Tonight`s The Night”, and it featured their hit song “Will You Love Me Tomorrow”. From then, Shirley`s net worth began to increase, as the group continued to have numerous successful releases. Their second album was released in a year later, entitled “Baby It`s You” and it spawned a hit song of the same name and “Soldier Boy”.
The Shirelles released a total of 11 studio albums, including “Foolish Little Girl” (1963), “Happy And In Love” (1971), and their last studio release “Eternally, Soul”(1973). In 1975, Shirley left the group in order to pursue a solo career. Her debut album, “With A Little Help From My Friends”, was released the same year, under the pseudonym “Lady Rose”. However, her solo career didn`t live up to its potential, and Shirley began to tour the world with other music groups. In 2000, Shirley performed at the Doo Wop 51 PBS special, and now tours the world with a group of musicians under the name “Shirley Alston Reeves And Her Shirelles”.
Overall, her career is rather successful, as she has received numerous awards including Pioneer Award, for the group`s contribution to music, presented by Rhythm And Blues Foundation, and they were featured on the Rolling Stone`s magazine list of 100 Greatest Artists Of All Time at number 76. Furthermore, a street in their home town, Passaic, was named after the group, The Shirelles Boulevard.
Regarding her personal life, Shirley has been married twice. However, there is no further information about these marriages, only that she changed her last name to Alston and later Reeves.

As a boy JC Chasez was extremely shy, but he was able to fight with his modesty and joined the Mickey Mouse Club.

Although ‘N Sync broke up in 2002, the have sold more that 9.9 million copies of their album “No Strings Attached”.

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.
