[Ome]

The king of pop's (not my words) legacy clearly still lives on, one year after his death.

According to Billboard magazine Michael Jackson's estate has made more than $1bn (£677m) since his death a year ago.

The publication says that the king of pop's (not my words) album sales have generated about $383m (£259m), while his film This Is It has taken nearly $400m (£271m).

A new recording contract is also said to have made $31m (£21m).

Ten albums of the late singer's music are to be released over the next seven years, including one containing previously unreleased material.


I'm worth a few bob when I die.

I don't mean to be facetious, but it's very true that dying is the ultimate career move.
