Just because an actor is now doing independent films does not mean they fell off the map. There are many quality actors out there who focus on independent films because the roles are often more challenging than ones in the big budget films. Then, of course, are the actors who chose to leave Hollywood for an education or because they didn't like the industry. But that doesn't mean they fell off the map.
If one were to look at the ones who truly fell off the map, this list would be cut by more than half!

Staci Keanan and Mara Wilson are true success stories, in my book. They ducked the guillotine that is being a hollywood kid and went on to do the things they love doing. As much as I'd have loved to see more of Staci and that insanely ridiculously gorgeous hairline on my screen, I'm glad to have not seen the inevitable face down, groaning in a pool of vomit paparazzi pic we'd have gotten from that alt universe.

I played poker with Shannon Elizabeth wayyy back. It was at Imperial Palace (gone now) in Vegas. She walked in with that guy from dancing with the stars who was a judge on another dance show with Jennifer Lopez. I think Shannon was on dwts that season. What surprised me is how short she was (that famous dancer was too) I thought she was tall from American Pie. I can't remember the year, can anyone guess?

No JoJo? She was on her way to top stardom in early 2000s she has songs hits and starred in movies she is supposed to be the next teen queen before Miley and Taylor Swift but had a label issues that prevented her career from moving forward. She was literally not allowed to sing or release new music that's why she fell off the radar.

A lot of these stars walked away by choice, they didn't just fall off the map, they wanted something different for their life/career and they went for it. Unlike many young actors who are forced out when they get too old to play the little kids characters they became famous for / not as cute as they were.

I always think of Rick Moranis. I really loved his movies as a kid. But I totally respect and applaud him for being a great parent.
Because he could've continued acting and found other people to babysit. Instead he stepped back from acting so he could raise his kids.

None of this list represents actors that fell off. Amanda is mentally ill and not indicative of someone falling off. Others on this list pulled back due to stress and industry backbiting. Put someone like Drake Bell on this list instead.

Female Prince? First of all, I've only heard of this chick TODAY! Second, Prince had MANY hits! Don't compare this person to this talented individual. That's crazy. Don't disrespect my man Prince Rogers Nelson.

Not everyone who fell off the map is unhappy about it. Sometimes once you've had something you can walk away from it. To be I don't know who half these people are maybe that's what they wanted. Roo-ald? Really?

You forgot to mention Hold on by Jamie Walters, that was an original song, and a smash hit all around the world.
Never heard that cover song you played, maybe it topped the charts only in the US.

Im always so distracted by everyone at Watch Mojos seriously strange pronunciation of common words. Sometimes it seems as though they have never heard people say every day sentences before.

Most of the people on the list are happier/better off. Culkins problem was his parents for sure, Amanda Bynes had some serious mental health issues before it was being taken as serious as it is now.

This countdown is so vapid. Unless youre an A lister, acting is feast or famine. Some of these former child actors are smart to left the business. Success looks different for everyone.

Come on thats really how you did Frankie? How about how freaking smart he was with his fame and money and how he's super rich from that. Probably 1 of the smartest child actors ever.

People need to put more respect on the fact that Freddie Prinze Jr was an amazing writer in the #WWE Hes the reason Jeff Hardy was the WWE heavyweight champion.

Not into vampire shows, but Taylor Lautner was great in Cuckoo as Cuckoo's son several episodes in. If you like funny British comedies, then this is a must watch

In 2018, Jane Child auctioned off her trademark nose chain on eBay when her finances 'got really serious'. It (along w/her snot) sold for $13. 20.

Every show I watch about Amanda Bynes, they never talk about the show she did with Jeannie Garrh in the early 2000s. What I like about you.

I definitely know who Jane Child was because back in high school, she had my most favorite songs, even if she was a one or two hit wonder.
