Multi-millionaire children, tweens and teens are as common as implants at the Oscars. Even though most of the stars have aged out of the child star demographic of 14-18, they still are cashing in with performances that appeal to that group.
Miley Cyrus, 15 years old, from Hanna Montana and Daniel Radcliffe, 19, of Harry Potter socked away a cool $25 million each last year. Others, in order from high to low, are Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, both 22, at $15 million; The Jonas Brothers, Kevin, Joe, and Nick, at $12 million; High School Musical star Zac Efron, 20, toted up almost $6 million along with 23-year-old co-star Ashley Tisdale's $5.5 million.
Emma Watson, 18, who plays Hermioni in Harry Potter took $5 million to the bank this past 12 months. Hilary Duff, 20, got $5 million as did Rupert Grint, 19 who plays Ron Weasley in Harry Potter; and Vanessa Hudgens, 19, survived some unauthorized web exposure to come in at number ten with a nice $3.2 million.
