Whatever Happened To Ned's Declassified Star Devon Werkheiser?

At age 15, Devon Werkheiser filmed his final episode of “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide.” He left the show with a new hobby, telling Conventional Relations that he decided to learn guitar because Rob Pinkston and some of the show’s crew members played the instrument. He was also a talented singer and scored a record deal with Universal Motown soon after the show ended. While he learned a lot from working with the label, he just wasn’t the polished performer that it needed him to be. “I wasn’t clear on who I was as an artist yet,” he admitted. He eventually parted ways with Universal without releasing any music. However, he dropped his first self-produced EP, “I Am,” in 2013 and continued recording songs. By 2019, he had scored a gig opening for “Kiss from a Rose” singer Seal. “To get to open for him was terrifying, an honor, and it forced me to up my game,” Werkheiser said.

Unfortunately, Werkheiser’s music and his sporadic post-Nickelodeon acting gigs weren’t bringing in a steady income, and he told Business Insider that his savings dried up about 10 years after “Ned’s Declassified” ended. He had to seek work elsewhere, including the front desk of an Equinox gym. On “Speech Bubble,” he recalled seeing Terry Crews, who he co-starred with in the 2017 movie “Where’s the Money,” at the gym he worked at one day. “That was a weird moment where I didn’t say hi,” he said.
