Michael Jackson may be one of the most successful dead celebrities, but his sister Janet (who, of course, is alive and well) is doing pretty well herself. The 47-year-old is officially a billionaire.
According to Variety, Jackson, who is one of the best-selling artists of all time, has earned $458 million thanks to her successful concert tours, $304 million from acting roles in films like "For Colored Girls" and "The Nutty Professor," $260 million in album sales, and more than $81 million from tour sponsorships and licensing fees.
And the "Control" songstress isn't the only billionaire in her household. Jackson secretly married retail tycoon Wissam Al Mana, who's made his fortune investing in the Middle East.
As for fellow celeb billionaires, Jackson joins a club with members including Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, J.K. Rowling, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, whose "Seinfeld" money helped … but whose main fortune came from her dad, billionaire Gerard Louis-Dreyfus, chairman of the Louis Dreyfus Energy Services.
At least Janet can feel good about the fact she earned her billion all by herself.

Beyoncé shares sweet photo of a tutu-clad Blue Ivy sat proudly in her monogrammed director's chair
Her mother is one of the world’s most popular singing divas and it looks like the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree.
Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy has been given her very own monogrammed director’s chair during her mother’s Mrs Carter world tour.
And it looks like the 16-month-old is settling in nicely to the best seat in the house.
Beyoncé posted a photo of her little girl seen sitting comfortably in the white chair, which is decorated with the initials BIC in black letters and a classic font.
Just the back of Blue is seen in the photo, and she sports a cute white tutu and pink varsity top.
The chair, which Beyoncé first unveiled in March, is placed in front of a white sofa and a couple of Blue’s toys can be strewn across the room in the background.
Along with the sweet snapshot of her young daughter, the singer shared pictures which showed her stood on a hotel balcony with a stunning backdrop behind her, which seem to have been taken in Cuba.
The 31-year-old looks fresh-faced and appears to be make-up free in the shots, with her dark brunette hair in cornrows.
She can be seen wearing a strapless jumpsuit in a beige and black print which leaves her décolletage on display, and in one shot even has a cigar between her teeth.
It came shortly after the star, who has been busy of late not just touring but also scotching rumours of a second pregnancy, shared many more photos of herself and husband Jay-Z in Cuba.
The trip took place in April and the couple are seen taking in their surroundings as they are driven through Havana in the newly posted holiday snaps.

'I hate my bigger breasts, I prefer smaller boobs'
She has had several breast augmentations as well as an operation to remove her implants after they ruptured but now Danielle O'Hara has revealed that she isn't happy with bigger breasts.
The 29-year-old WAG is currently pregnant with her third child with her footballer husband Jamie and her changing shape has made her realise she prefers it when her chest is smaller.
Danielle said she hates her bust: 'They've gotten bigger and feel massive now. After having smaller boobs last year, I've realised I prefer them that way.'
The model also explained that she is struggling to feel good and finding it hard to come to terms with her mother-to-be shape.
She said: 'When I'm naked in a bikini, I'm not confident. Everyone says I look great but my body is getting me down. I feel like I'm getting a lot more cellulite, which I didn't with my previous pregnancies.'
Danielle explained how she doesn't want to exercise because she doesn't want to risk suffering a premature arrival, after her second son Harry was born 10 weeks early.
While Danielle might not be happy with her shape she appeared to be blossoming during a trip to Tenerife last week.
Danielle showed off her changing shape in a series of pretty bikinis by spottedonceleb.com and she appeared to be glowing.
The brunette estimates she has put on one and a half stone during her pregnancy taking her just over 10st 7lbs.
While Danielle might not be comfortable with her shape her husband Jamie certainly is.
She said: 'I feel bigger all over and not at all sexy, but I know I'm lucky to have Jamie who loves me regardless. He's always complimenting my bump.'
Earlier this month Danielle enjoyed a baby shower with a group of pals including TOWIE stars Lydia Bright and her mother Debbie.
Danielle announced her pregnancy in February and is expecting her third son later this year.
