Elvis has been de-throwned!
Elvis has reigned atop Forbes' list of "Top-Earning Dead Celebrities" every year since its inception in 2001, lording over John Lennon, James Dean, and all the others who are dead as dirt, yet filthy rich and getting richer.
The new King of the dead is none other than.... Kurt Cobain of Nirvana fame.
But now, there's a new top star among dead tycoons. Forbes hails Kurt Cobain, who earned a whopping $50 million between October 2005 and 2006, as the New No. 1.
Long live the New King of the dead.
Note: I'm a little behind the times with this one... wakey wakey Tim!
