Michael Jackson tops Forbes list of 'highest-earning dead celebrities The King Of Rock And Roll, Michael Jackson once again raked in more than Elvis Presley to become the world's top earning dead celebrity of 2014. The music legend's estate continued to earn more than most celebrities in the land of the living with an altogether not Bad at all haul of $140m. According to Forbes, he made almost three times as much as perennial list topper Elvis Presley, who made a relatively paltry $55 million in earnings over the same 12-month period. His profile was further bolstered by an holographic performance on stage at the Billboard Music Awards. His controversial appearance will no doubt pave the way for other dead celebrities as the technology advances to the point where we won’t be able to tell the difference. Source: Mail Online
