Micheal Jackson Tops List of Highest Earning Dead Celebs


mike-jMicheal Jackson, died five years ago (just like yesterday though), and even in his grave, the one and only King of Pop, is still making millions of dollars.

Forbe’s 2014 list of highest earning dead celebrities, saw MJ topping the list, with an estimated US$140 million (S$178 million) in the past year for his estate. He earned more than twice as much as singer Elvis Presley, who died in 1977 and came in second with US$55 million, and three times more than cartoonist and Peanuts comic strip creator Charles Schulz, who took third place with US$40 million.
As Forbes put it;
“Few celebrities prove the point that there is (financial) life after death better than Michael Jackson,”
It would be the second year in a row, to top Forbes list of dead celeb, as he regained the title in 2013, a year after being pushed into second place by actress Elizabeth Taylor.
Na wa o, dead men raking in millions in their graves – the living must sit up o (LOL) or what do you think?
