8The Cyruses
Born on August 25, 1961, Billy Ray Cyrus is an American country music singer and actor, and the first person in the Cyrus family that the world really knew.
‘Achy Breaky Heart’ was Billy’s biggest hit, reaching on #4 on the ‘Billboard Hot 100’ chart in 1992. Not to mention, some of us are still listening to that lovely song and it can still be heard on country radio stations.
Until 2006, when the world met Miley Cyrus, his daughter.
Miley starred on the Disney Channel’s series ‘Hannah Montana’. Apparently she didn’t earn much from the show, so she began an acting and music career, appearing in nearly 20 movies and releasing 4 albums.
Now, the 21-year-old singer has a net worth of $155 million : Miley Cyrus Net Worth 2014.
