Michael Jackson Still Reigns as the Highest-Paid Deceased Celebrity
It’s been over a decade since the world lost Michael Jackson, but his influence—and earning power—are still unmatched.
According to Forbes, Jackson’s estate continues to thrive thanks to his timeless catalog, major licensing deals, and an upcoming biopic that has fans buzzing. Most notably, Sony Music recently purchased a 50% stake in his master recordings and publishing catalog for a staggering $600 million.
While other late icons like Prince, John Lennon, and Bob Marley also made the list, no one has managed to outshine Jackson’s cultural and financial impact.
With his music still charting, his videos pulling millions of views, and a new generation discovering his artistry, it’s clear that Michael Jackson remains in a league of his own.
