Miley Cyrus net worth has always been an undisclosed issue since we were all drawn into her scandalous music, trappings, and whatnot. However, after pulling off that VMAs twerk-filled performance and after releasing singles and risqué videos that turned out to be undeniably successful, we're sure that many began to ask a few questions concerning her finances. So how much money is the former Disney asset making?

While many have already known her as country music star Billy Ray Cyrus' daughter, Miley Cyrus or Destiny Hope Cyrus is obviously not asking for some cash from his dad anymore. The teen star has indeed gone a long way from her early days as a student in the Armstrong Acting School of Toronto, where she enrolled at the age of nine. At a very young age, Miley was exposed to the showbiz industry through small roles such as an appearance in Doc and a big-screen cameo for Tim Burton's Big Fish.

Nevertheless, it's safe to say that Miley Cyrus' net worth began to officially roll when she auditioned and got the lead role for a Disney show that centered on an average teenage girl who has this secret identity as a famous pop star. The show, Hannah Montana, was obviously her one-way ticket to fame, and it didn't fail the young artist to propel her career to its peak during her teenage years. It even led to her singer songwriter debut after the success of her Hannah Montana soundtrack which shocked the world when it landed number one on the Billboard 200 in 2006.

The following year, Miley Cyrus' net worth flourished when Disney released another Hannah Montana soundtrack alongside an original Miley namesake CD. Miley's CD has captured the hearts of many and it even sold three million copies in the US alone and was recognized as a three-time platinum recipient by the RIAA.

It seems that every project Miley made became major hits overnight. Her follow-up album Breakout was catapulted to number one instantly upon its debut. Apart from her successful music career, Miley Cyrus' net worth also got a boost from her voice-acting career in some Disney productions such as Bolt and The Emperor's New School. She also penetrated the big screen at that time when Hannah Montana: The Movie was released, which was followed by another box-office film, The Last Song.

Thus far, Miley Cyrus has bagged a number of major awards including nine Teen Choice Awards, a Gracie Allen Award, and four Kids Choice Awards. So if you are wondering how much money is in Miley Cyrus' net worth, CelebrityNetWorth says it's a whopping $150 Million. (Note that this does not include her earnings for her latest albums, concerts, questing, and paid performances.)

Comparing her wealth to what her peers are receiving, we can say that Miley Cyrus is richer. Justin Bieber's net worth is at $130 Million, according to BusinessInsider. Meanwhile, Demi Lovato is worth $15 Million, Selena Gomez earns roughly $10 Million while the Jonas Brothers earn a total of $50 million. By far the only artist that matches Miley Cyrus' net worth is that of another sensational and well-loved singer, Taylor Swift, which is also at $150 Million.
