a small dose of reality

keeping it semi real, promoting conservatives, taking potshots at fools, democrats other than Obama, liberals, the left, know it alls, the dnc, etc., reviews of models, pundits and blogs

Nirvana's Cobain Passes Elvis as Forbes Top Dollar Earning Dead Celebrity

@ 06:48 PM (37 months, 15 days ago)

 

Rock 'n' roll legend Elvis Presley ceded his crown to Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain on Forbes.com's list as the top-earning dead celebrity.

The list, published Tuesday, said grunge rocker Cobain earned $50 million between October 2005 and October 2006. Presley wound up in the No. 2 slot with $42 million, down from last year's $45 million.  Ranked after Presley is Peanuts cartoon strip creator Charles Schulz at $35 million.

Meanwhile, this barely alive "celebrity can't make $10,000 per year.....I personally can't understand it

 

Forbes.com bases its dollar amounts on licensing deals for using the deceased celebrities' work or image in advertising or elsewhere.  Could Gore be worth more dead than alive?  Is Gore the real behind the scenes producer of "loose change"?

  2. EVERYBODY knows that Gore has secretly funded "loose change". His nutty thinking is all over it.
