to Forbes, Michael Jackson is the top earning dead celebrity, earning
an astonishing $115million this year. In his more 30 years solo career,
the King of Pop made an impressive over $1.1 billion. But it seems he

and publishing revenues, and his half of the Sony/ATV publishing
catalogue.

highest earning dead celebrities, complied by financial magazine Forbes.
In second place is Elvis Presley, who has made £36million, Peanuts
cartoonist Charles Schulz comes in third with £26million, while fourth
