Yeah I don't think this movie killed anyone's career. Some had careers after and other supporting weren't really that talented to begin with.
Yes, many of the main cast members have moved on and have done alright for themselves since this turd bomb. Kelly Clarkson basically summed up her experience with two words: contractually obligated. I always compare her From Justin to Kelly experience with The Wonders in That Thing You Do, where they are told they have the chance to be in a major Hollywood motion picture, and their eyes light up. It turns out that "major Hollywood motion picture" is a stupid beach movie.
I am sure Justin and Kelly had that same excitement knowing they would be in a movie, but then when they find out it a pointless film that was written by Simon Fuller's brother and designed to exploit Kelly and Justin. Alas, they are no choice since they were contractually obligated. At least they are wiser for the wear now.
