The Beginning Of His Career
Actor and singer Mitchel Tate Musso is from the United States. His three Disney Channel roles—Oliver Oken in Hannah Montana, Jeremy Johnson in the cartoon series Phineas and Ferb, and King Brady on Pair of Kings—have made him the most well-known actor in the company. He served as the show’s host on the Disney Channel.
The son of Katherine and Samuel Musso, who worked in Dallas, Texas’s community theatre, Musso was born in Garland, Texas, and has two brothers: actor Marc Musso and lead vocalist Mason Musso of the band Metro Station. He is of Italian and English ancestry, and his upbringing was in Rockwall, Texas.
His Debut In The Industry
Mitchel and his brother Marc starred in Secondhand Lions’ debut Hollywood movie for Mitchel. He had several roles before being cast in Secondhand Lions, including 2002’s Am I Cursed? as Richie and The Keyman as a Cub Scout.
In addition, Musso appeared in three episodes of King of the Hill as the surfer kid in “Four Wave Intersection” and the voice of Bobby Hill’s friend Curt in “The Powder Puff Boys” and “Bobby Rae” in 2007.
Jeremy Johnson, the boy that the sister of the Phineas and Ferb characters, Candace (Ashley Tisdale), has a crush on, is voiced by Musso in Phineas and Ferb in addition to his role as Oliver Oken in Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel.

His Music Ventures
Musso performed a remixed version of “Lean on Me” for the Disney movie Snow Buddies; the song is also featured on the Radio Disney Jams, Vol. 10 CD, and the music video can be seen on the DVD.
For the Disneymania 6 CD in 2008 and the Disneymania 7 CD in 2010, Musso also performed the song “If I Didn’t Have You” with Hannah Montana co-star Emily Osment.
The song “Let It Go” was recorded by Musso and co-star Tiffany Thornton from Sonny with a Chance for their 2009 Disney Channel Original Movie, Hatching Pete. Additionally, the two created a music video for the song, which was made available to Disney.
His Personal Life
Even though he had a successful career in his professional life, he faced trouble regarding many issues. Musso was arrested on charges of DUI in October 2011 in Burbank, California, after failing to slow down for traffic officers.
Musso, who was 20 years old, violated the 08 blood alcohol level despite drinking underage. Although his bond was $5,000, he was released since there were no active warrants.
Recently, Musso was acting aggressively on August 26, 2023, after being asked to pay for a bag of chips he allegedly stole from a hotel food store without paying.
Musso was drunk when cops arrived outside the motel. Musso was arrested in Rockwall, Texas, when it was revealed that he allegedly had several outstanding warrants.
In contrast to what the Rockwall Police Department reported, the former child actor now says he wasn’t “drunk” when arrested and didn’t steal a bag of chips.

Net Worth Of Mitchel Musso
Mitchel Musso’s estimated net worth in 2023 is $4 million. Musso claims that he never opened the bag of chips and that a hotel employee acting “extremely disgruntled” and “unhinged” turned him away since he was only wearing board shorts.
He further continues, “I didn’t know it was illegal not to wear shirts these days,” adding that he had just returned with pals from a parked boat on the harbor to replenish their supply of snacks.
According to him, the worker, who was “agitated from the get-go,“ snatched the chips from his hand.
Musso had trouble recalling the precise brand of the bag of chips in question.
