At 14 years old, Hudson Stone is already learning what it means to have a side hustle—and Disney’s paying handsomely for the privilege.

The son of celebrity chef Curtis Stone and actress Lindsay Price just inked a contract to perform in the Worlds Collide Concert Tour, which brings together stars from the Zombies, Descendants, and Camp Rock franchises. Hudson scored the gig thanks to his role in Camp Rock 3, and the deal reveals just how lucrative these kinds of tour opportunities can be for young talent breaking into entertainment.

Here’s where it gets interesting: Hudson will pocket $10,000 per show he performs. That’s the base rate. But Disney sweetened the pot considerably. The contract also includes additional advances and potential film buyout rights if Disney decides to capture the tour for digital release. Beyond the stage performance, Hudson’s being paid for social media posts tied to the tour—though that amount fluctuates depending on his follower count. There’s also merchandise revenue on the table: he’ll earn 10 percent of the first $800,000 in tour merchandise sales and an even larger percentage after that threshold. It’s a multi-revenue-stream setup that shows just how seriously Disney structures these deals.

There are some guardrails, naturally. Hudson’s contractually restricted from posting anything vulgar or drug-related on social media—a standard clause for minors in the entertainment space. The deal does allow him to bring one or both parents along on the tour, which makes sense given his age.

What’s striking here isn’t just the money—it’s the sophistication of the arrangement. This isn’t a one-off appearance. It’s a strategically layered deal that recognizes Hudson’s value across multiple channels: his performance, his social media reach, and his ability to drive merchandise sales. Welcome to kid-star economics in 2026, where a 14-year-old’s Instagram followers and merchandise potential are quantified line-item by line-item in a Disney contract.
