Forbes has released their annual list of Top Earning Dead Celebrities and Elvis has made the list at #2. Elvis has an estimated $55 million in posthumous earnings. The #1 spot goes to Michael Jackson, earning $160 million over the past year.

Elvis may have taken a back seat to the King of Pop the past few years but Elvis' estate is still earning steadily thanks to his eternally popular image, the internationally touring video-concerts and the stream of revenue from Graceland and the ever-expanding EPE licensed products.

Top five Forbes magazine Top-Earning Dead Celebrities.
1. Michael Jackson $160 million
2. Elvis Presley $55 million
3. Charles Schulz ('Peanuts' creator) $37 million.
4. Elizabeth Taylor $25 million.
5. Bob Marley $18 million.
