The late American singer, Michael Jackson, has been ranked the world’s highest-paid dead celebrity of 2023.
Forbes noted that the singer bagged $115 million in earnings.
The earnings are grossly calculated from his music royalties, which include sales, licensing deals, streams, and personal investments between October 1, 2022, and September 30, 2023. Moreover, this is the first time Jackson has held the top spot in four years.
Second place went to Jackson’s late father-in-law, Elvis Presley, whose estimated net worth was $100 million.
The top 13 deceased celebs list also includes Whitney Houston, Bob Marley, Prince, and John Lennon.
