Why aren't the ex Disney artists popping out multiple Hot 100 #1s like Aguilera, and Timberlake in their 1st couple of eras? Some don't even have a single #1 yet.

[ISlayForX]

Good question. I don't understand it either.

[Tristan]

Too indie lbr

[Jeiboy]

Miley did.

[BlazingLovatic]

They didn't peak instantly like the last ones did.

They're still improving.

[Ryann]

Ariana basically did. Problem went #1 in multiple countries and is bigger than Fancy, the song that blocked it.

[theblackestday]

They're too avant garde for mainstream success

[Beyonnaise]

With a bit of hype, a radio deal and a Friday video release, Interscope can secure a #1 with Selena's next lead single.

[OpenBacardi]

#1s aren't everything, I'd take acclaim over #1s. However, Xtina-Britney-Justin were more talented than Selena-Demi-NickJonas. Miley is the real Disney star of this generation.

Not everyone can churn out #1 after #1 like Legend X. Unfortunately for the ex-acts it is probably due to
1. lack of star quality (Demi)
2. lack of talent (Selena)
3. still being seen as childish (they all suffer from this somewhat.)

[Diarrhoea]

like Aguilera, and Timberlake

Subtle!

[madonnas]

They're about longevity and having sustainable careers!

[makeme]

Well Ari wasn't Disney.

[GabeEd]

To be fair, the ex Disney stars of now made a name for themselves as Disney stars. The ones you mentioned didn't.

[Adrz]

To be fair, all of the ex disney artist get moderate hits and can still tour whereas Legend X is only a reality tv judge. Even Demi can tour so getting a #1 isn't all that matters when after 10+ years there is no demand, musically or through touring.

Xtina would tour if she wasn't too proud to perform to arenas with thousands of unsold seats in the audience. Selena and Demi aren't apparently so that's what they do.

[Brinny Baby]

I feel like they're more albums artists-only whereas older teen acts like Britney and Justin/NSYNC were albums artists with some big hits here and there.

[Luma]

Lack of talent.
