Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato, a success in both music and acting, originally used her musical abilities on the Disney Channel. Lovato made her debut in the comedy shorts series As the Bell Rings in 2007, which followed a group of students and their chats in the hallways in between courses. Disney would pair the Jonas Brothers and Lovato's amazing voice in the Disney Channel original film Camp Rock and its follow-up Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus is maybe one of the most well-known figures to have appeared on the Disney Channel. In 2006, Miley had her full-talent debut alongside her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, who was already well-known as a country artist and the star of the TV show Doc. She had the opportunity to display both her acting and singing abilities while portraying Miley Stewart, a teenage girl who leads a double life as pop superstar Hannah Montana. From 2006 through 2011, the show ran, and there were numerous crossovers with other channel shows including The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
Zendaya
She co-starred with Bella Thorne on Disney Channel's Shake It Up in 2010 before going on to become a fashion symbol and a famous actor. The show followed Rocky's (Zendaya) and Cece's (Thorne) aspirations to become dancers on a television programme. Following the conclusion of Shake It Up in 2013, Zendaya's career at Disney would continue with K.C. Undercover from 2015 to 2018.
Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff, a real Disney sweetheart, helped millennials understand the struggles of being a teenage girl. Although Casper Meets Wendy, the TV movie for which she received her first acting credit, was shown on the Disney Channel during the Halloween season, the picture itself was not a Disney creation. In 2001, Duff became a member of the mouse-house family when she was cast as Lizzie McGuire.
Christina Aguilera
Before she became a chart-topper, Christina Aguilera appeared in three episodes of The All New Mickey Mouse Club from 1993 to 1995 among other now-famous Disney alumni as a young hopeful. Additionally, she provided a voiceover for Disney in 1998 for the TV movie Reflections on Ice: Michelle Kwan Skates to the Music of Disney's "Mulan," which featured scenes from the animated picture.
Britney Spears
Unexpectedly, the legendary singer Britney Spears got started with Mickey Mouse from 1993 to 1995. She is another person whose name has been featured in three episodes of The All New Mickey Mouse Club. Only a few years later, in 1998, the single "Hit Me Baby One More Time" was published, instantly making this girl famous.
Jenna Ortega
We bet you know this young star from Netflix’s Wednesday that has become one of the most talked-about and watched shows nowadays. However, Jenna Ortega has been acting for a while back on Disney shows. She played Harley Diaz in Stuck in the Middle and was the voice of Princess Isabel in Elena of Avalor. She also played the Vice President's Daughter in Iron Man 3.
