Despite being released over three decades ago, hardly a day goes by without at least one former cast member from The All-New Mickey Mouse Club making headlines in modern pop culture news.

You’ll likely recognise the four biggest stars to come out of the kids’ show: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling.

Although the variety show created by Walt Disney was first released in 1955 as The Mickey Mouse Club, Spears, Aguilera, Timberlake and Gosling joined its reboot in the early 90s, per Us Weekly.

Spears has been giving us major throwback vibes lately with the anticipated release of her upcoming memoir The Woman in Me on October 24, where it’s likely she’ll go over some of her childhood experiences and former friendships.

So, who’s the richest to come out of OG kids show The All-New Mickey Mouse Club according to Celebrity Net Worth?

8. Rhona Bennett – US$4 million

Joining the A-list cast from 1991 to 1994, Rhona Bennett, 47, went on to pursue music like many of her co-stars after the production. She’s been part of R&B group En Vogue since 2003 and has an estimated net worth of US$4 million.

7. Keri Russell – US$12 million

Russell, 47, once spoke about her eight-year run on The All-New Mickey Mouse Club in an interview with W Magazine, stating: “Not everyone got out alive [from the show]. Some of those people are still my best friends – Ilana [Miller] and Lindsey [Alley]. I was there at a time when there were a lot of famous kids there.”

Today, she has enjoyed immense popularity as both a leading and supporting actress, starring in films and TV shows including Felicity, The Americans, Mission Impossible 3 and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Her hard work has clearly paid off as she has an estimated net worth of US$12 million.

After The All-New Mickey Mouse Club, JC Chasez teamed up with Justin Timberlake to be part of the now-iconic American boy band NSync. The 47-year-old has kept a relatively low profile in recent years, and has a handsome fortune of about US$16 million.

5. Tony Lucca – US$16 million

According to fellow Mouseketeer Aguilera, Spears once had a crush on Tony Lucca during their Mickey days.

She shared the news on The Voice season two, where Lucca auditioned and chose to work with Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine, placing third in the competition. The 47-year-old dated co-star Russell for eight years before they broke up, and continues to work in the music industry. The singer, producer, songwriter and once part-time actor has since racked up US$16 million.

4. Britney Spears – US$60–70 million

Spears, 41, is arguably the most famous face to come out of the variety show, but that doesn’t necessarily make her the richest. The pop star rose to global fame with hits like “Toxic”, “Oops! … I Did it Again” and “Lucky” among many more record-breaking singles, but her controversial conservatorship has undoubtedly held her back in recent years. While Forbes lists her likely net worth as US$60 million in 2021, Celebrity Net Worth estimates it could have crept up to US$70 million by now.

3. Ryan Gosling – US$70 million

Ryan Gosling didn’t go down a musical path like many of his former co-stars, but instead found success as a Hollywood actor. The 42-year-old recently starred as Ken alongside Margot Robbie in the blockbuster film Barbie, and is also known for landing titles such as La La Land, Blade Runner 2049 and The Notebook, to name a few. He has around US$70 million to his name.

2. Christina Aguilera – US$160 million

If there’s one songstress on this list who can belt out four-octave vocal ranges at levels comparable to Whitney Houston, it has to be the immensely talented Christina Aguilera. The 42-year-old “Genie in a Bottle” songstress continues to perform to this day, and made bank through her former stint on The Voice and with acting gigs like Burlesque and The Emoji Movie.

1. Justin Timberlake – US$250 million

Timberlake tops this list with his US$250 million fortune. After leaving The All-New Mickey Mouse Club, he gained international fame as the breakout star from 90s boy band NSync, then dabbled in acting with films like The Social Network, Bad Teacher, Friends with Benefits and In Time.

The 42-yer-old “SexyBack” singer also recently collaborated with Tiger Woods to open a sports bar in New York City, T-Squared Social.
