Stan Walker Net Worth
In 2009, Stan Walker became famous when he won 7th season of Australian Idol. But it was only the beginning of his long journey towards success and wealth. As of 2015, Walker’s net worth is estimated to be $2.5 million. Most of his income originates from music (royalties, ticket sales, etc.) but he’s also an occasional actor.
Stan was born 23 October 1990 in Melbouren, Australia into a poor family. His parents went to jail for various drug offences and Stan himself was abused by a relative. But the hard childhood didn’t take his dreams away. In 2009, he enjoyed his breakthrough moment on Australian Idol. He was finally able to leave his current job, which was a shop assistant at a menswear shop. He signed contract with Sony Music Australia label and received $200,000 as an artist’s development fund. Now he was able to focus full-time on his music.
Walker is currently dating a beautiful girl named Lou Tyson. He once revealed in the interview that he loves to snuggle in bed with her. We believe that. Those two certainly look like a happy couple.
His first studio album was named Introducing… Stan Walker and sold over 45,000 copies which earned it a triple platinum certification by the RIANZ. Other albums followed: From the Inside Out, Let the Music Play, Inventing Myself, and most recently Truth & Soul which was published in 2015.
Although music career remain his main vocation, Stan also played Turei in 2013 movie Mt Zion. In 2015, h should appear on Born to Dance as Benjy. This role will definitely boost his net worth. We wish him luck in his future endeavors.
