Cast Of Crossroads: How Much Are They Worth Now?
Published on August 5, 2016.Remember when pop sensation Britney Spears took on acting? Well, her fans still do as Crossroads remains one of the perfectly cheesy best friend films from the early 2000s. Written by none other than Shonda Rhimes, it starred not only Spears but a ton of other talents including Zoe Saldana, Taryn Manning, Kim Cattrall, and Justin Long, and they have all come a long way since MTV Films produced movie. It may have garnered a slew of negative reviews from critics, but Spears was a huge draw for fans as the film ended up making over $61 million worldwide. Fourteen years later, check out how much they are all worth now!
8. Beverly Johnson
Estimated Net Worth: $5 Million. Beverly Johnson has made herself known as both a model and an actress, and was initially focused on becoming a lawyer before modelling took over. She quickly rose to fame and became the first African-American model to appear on the cover of the American edition of Vogue. She then went on to acting where she appeared on many television shows as well as movies such as How to Be a Player and Crossroads in which she appeared as Kit’s mom. She now has a very respectable net worth of $5 million.

His career really began to take off after appearing in the series Ed and the film, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. He now has 81 acting credits to his name and appeared in many films such as Accepted, Live Free or Die Hard, and He’s Just Not That Into You, to name a few.

Estimated Net Worth: $75 Million. Kim Cattrall will always be best known for her role as Samantha Jones on Sex and the City, and because of this, many forget about her career outside of the show. In the late ’70s, Cattrall appeared in several TV series and TV movies before launching into films such as Porky’s, Police Academy, and Mannequin co-starring Andrew McCarthy. Then in 2002 she appeared in Crossroads as Britney Spears’ character’s mother. Despite tons of other work, it is no surprise that much of Cattrall’s net worth comes from Sex and the City, and she is probably just fine with that with an estimated net worth of $75 million!

Estimated Net Worth: $135 Million. For a negatively reviewed film that is still panned by critics, Crossroads sure drew some huge names and Dan Aykroyd was one of the biggest. For the film, Aykroyd portrayed Lucy’s father Pete, but in terms of his career, it hardly had an impact. As one of the original cast members of Saturday Night Live and the star of classic films such as The Blues Brothers and Ghostbusters, Dan Aykroyd is one of the entertainment industry’s most iconic stars. With so many big name movies under his belt, as well as a foray into writing and his own brand of vodka, the star is sitting on an incredible net worth of $135 million.

She has since appeared in many notable films such as Cold Mountain and Hustle & Flow. In recent years, however, Manning is well known for her guest starring roles on hit series such as Sons of Anarchy and Hawaii Five-O, but she is best known now as a star of the major Netflix series Orange Is the New Black. She now has a net worth of $3 million.

Estimated Net Worth: $200 Million. Britney Spears was heavily criticized for her lack of acting skills in Crossroads, but she never really needed them as one of the most iconic pop stars of the past few decades. As fans know, her entire net worth comes from her incredible success with her music career. As the eighth top-selling female artist in the U.S., Spears has an absolutely incredible net worth of $200 million, which is an accumulation of her record and tour sales, as well as the revenue she brings in through her various endorsements.
