Even in death, Elvis Presley remains the King.
For the third year in a row, he has topped the income list for dead celebrities bringing in a massive ?5million for the year ending September 2003.
The Forbes list sees late rock stars as the major players on the top 10, with the two former Beatles, John Lennon and George Harrison in the top five and Bob Marley just a little further on down.
Elvis’ success was built on the back of his No1. Hits album. It sold nine million copies. Visits to Graceland were also up and the success of Rubberneckin’ didn’t hurt.
Right behind Elvis is Peanuts cartoon creator Charles Schulz who made ?0 million for his estimate. The world-wide success of ’The Lord Of The Rings’ generated ?4million for the estimate of it’s author JRR Tolkien and places him on third place.
John Lennon clocks in at four with a ?2million tally, while George Harrison is just a little behind him at five on ?0million.
Both profited from still buoyant sales of Beatles records. Some two million were sold last year.
Bob Marley made ?.6million last year, just ahead of Marilyn Monroe.
One other person who won’t be enjoying the considerable fruits of his labours is Dr Robert Atkins, pioneer of the popular but controversial low-carbohydrate Atkins diet. The good doctor made ?.8 million. He died in April this year, not from any health problem but after slipping on ice in New York.

semua harta kekayaan Elvis nih jatuh pd isteri dia n anak dia - Lisa Marie Presley ... best betul dpt idup cam nih ..
takyah keje .. segala harta benda dtg dr peminat yg beli album Elvis, through auction, through museum Elvis ... macam2 lagi ...
pastu tak masuk lagi royalti filem Elvis ...
smua filem2 lakonan Elvis smua cite cinta pastu lagu dia mesti ada ...
tp suka lagu rancak dia .. coz suka tgk dia menari ...
...
tp pelik si Elvis nih menjadi pujaan n kegilaan teenagers pd masa dulu
sampai pengsan2 .. sampai tiru cara dia ckp, menari n pakaian ...
yg uniknyer suara dia cam ala2 org African Amerika ... |

Lisa Marie Presly popular sebb dia satu2 anak p'puan n anak tunggal pd Elvis n Priscilla
then tambah popular biler kawin ngan MJ jap ...
rasanyer kalau Elvis tuh bukan King of Rock Roll .. Lisa tak popular cam nih ...
nak buat album pun payah ...
ada sesapa tau brapa banyak album Lisa Marie Presly pnah kluar? |

betul tue.
tapi album dia tak menyengat sangat sbb terlalu adult contemporary. album dia yg terbaru nie ader kat pasaran, tapi masih jugak tak laku. hrmm.... nasib jer lar dia nih.. baik dia ter ...
la .. too adult contemporary ...
ingatkan sebb salah promotion ...
Fly ingat dia bawak genre ala2 country .. cam Shania Twain ...
