Here is the astonishing amount of money that singer and song-writer Danny Jones has made since finding fame as a teenager.
Currently one of the final four campmates remaining on ITV reality series I’m A Celeb, Jones has become a fan-favourite in camp thanks to his candid conversations about fame, mental health and the relationship with his own father.
Ahead of the 38-year-old competing in the iconic Celebrity Cyclone trial tonight (7 December) alongside Reverend Richard Coles, Oti Mabuse and Coleen Rooney, here is a rundown on Jones’ career as well as how much he’s made since finding fame at the age of 18.

The musician is of course no stranger to the limelight, having found fame two decades ago as a member of McFly alongside Tom Fletcher, Dougie Poynter and Harry Judd.
Jones founded McFly alongside Fletcher back in 2004 after meeting at an audition for another band. The pair would later recruit Poynter and Judd via an advert in NME Magazine, naming themselves after Back to the Future character Marty McFly.
From here, McFly would land themselves a spot supporting fellow early noughties band Busted and the rest, as they say, is history.
The band’s debut album Room on the 3rd Floor, released on 5 July 2004, charted at number one on the albums chart and saw the boys become the youngest ever band with a number-one album, overtaking previous record holders The Beatles.
Which you can imagine was a very exciting thing for a group of teenagers.
McFly went on to release a grand total of seven studio albums before going on hiatus in 2016. However the band have since capitalised on early 2000s nostalgia alongside Busted, with their latest joint venture being the upcoming Busted vs McFly 2025 tour.
Outside of McFly, Jones has enjoyed a solo career, penned the song ‘Don’t Forget Where You Belong’ for none other than One Direction and participated as a coach on The Voice Kids and The Voice UK.
He also participated and won ITV singing series The Masked Singer earlier this year.
What is Danny Jones’ net worth?
Considering his long-running career, it’s not surprising that Jones has been able to make a very nice living from his work in McFly and other ventures.
According to various reports, Jones is estimated to be worth between £2 and £4 million. He’ll also boost his earnings via an I’m A Celeb appearance fee, although it’s unlikely to be as high as Rooney’s £1.5 million price tag.
