And they're not the only ones, Selena Gomez & Demi Lovato were both children in the "Barney The Dinosaur" programmes, which helped to kick start their careers in acting and got them the gigs at Disney.
Selena Gomez was the main character Alex in "The Wizards Of Waverly Place", which now features on programmes such as CITV on weekend mornings due to popular demand.
She's managed to keep her wholesome role in film by starring in films such as "Another Cinderella Story", "Monte Carlo" and guest starred in "The Muppets Movie". She's also created a name for herself in the music industry with her band "Selena Gomez And The Scene", releasing pop songs which are regular hits with her teen audiences.
However, her name was soon recognised in everyone's homes when she began dating Justin Bieber a few years ago, being labelled as the next big celebrity couple. However that relationship has now flopped, what a surprise..

It's impossible not to mention how rehab has had an effect on some of the former Disney stars.
Lindsey Lohan, Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus & Britney Spears have all experienced the wonders of rehab, however Lindsey Lohan loves it so much that she's decided to go back about 7 times now.
Britney hit a bit of a bumpy road when she first started marrying every man she met, but she mainly hit her downfall when she decided to shave her hair off, which was basically a mega publicity stunt rather than a sign of her depression.
However she is still one of the most iconic women in pop music to teenagers (such as myself) who grew up listening to her music "Oops, I Did It Again", "Everytime", "I'm A Slave For You" - the list is pretty much endless.

Although both her & Demi Lovato have now decided that The X Factor USA shows more promise for their careers seeing as their music careers have pretty much flopped - although Demi's never really took off, unless you count her songs on Disney's original film "Camp Rock" and her one hit single "Skyscraper".
Speaking of "Camp Rock"..
The Jonas Brothers seem to be the only ones who have managed to stick to their promise of wearing purity rings, apart from curly haired Kevin Jonas who is now happily married with his own reality programme on E!.
Being a personal fan of the Jonas Brothers when I was in high school, I loved all of their songs & admired how they chose to move to the Disney side of music after they were unsuccessful in getting any other label to sign them. It's proven to be one of the best choices that they've ever made though - having released a number of albums & singles, some tv shows "JONAS" and "JONAS L.A", a 3D film of their concert, as well as featuring in other films e.g. "Camp Rock" with Demi Lovato.
Although the 3 brothers have now gone their seperate ways in music, they are still managing to keep theirselves out of rehab, so well done boys.

Miley Cyrus.
Everyone knows who Miley Cyrus is, unless you still think that she's Hannah Montana - if that's the case *SPOILER ALERT* sorry to break the news to you over a blog, but Hannah Montana is actually Miley Cyrus.
She entered Disney by landing the role of Hannah Montana and creating one of the most successful programmes/music artists for Disney that there has ever been. Although as we've realised, nothing ever lasts - she now has hair like a rebellious punk rock hair-do, about 700 dogs & has started focusing more on her acting career as no one really cares about listening to her sing anymore which is a shame because she was a true talent in my opinion. She's featured in films such as "Hannah Montana: The Movie", "LOL" & "The Last Song" where she met her soon to be husband Liam Hemsworth in 2009.
Recent picture of Miley Cyrus, doesn't exactly look like a Disney's angel anymore..
So hats off to Disney for making an impeccable job of turning all their young stars into raging alcoholic nutcases (no offense Lindsey), but a pat on the back for managing to salvage some of them, especially as Britney managed to grow her hair back *round of applause*.
