Celine Dion<br />Bigger Than Michael <br />So Claims AEG <br /><br /><br />It's Billie Jean vs. Titanic, and AEG claims the ship wins hands down.  Translation -- AEG is trying to convince the Michael Jackson jury that Celine Dion is bigger than MJ.<br /><br />AEG exec John Meglin is on the stand in the wrongful death case, scoffing at the Jackson family's claim that Michael would have earned $1.5 billion had he lived.<br /><br />Meglin told the jury it's his opinion Celine is a bigger star and therefore more bankable than MJ ever would have been.  Yet according to reports, Celine is worth a measly $400 mil.  <br /><br />Fun facts:  Jackson ranks #3 in most albums sold worldwide -- more than a billion (behind the Beatles and Elvis) . Celine ranks #9 at 200 million albums.<br /><br />As for Grammys, MJ also has her beat with 13 Grammys to her 5.<br /><br />So we gotta ask ..  (poll on tmz)<br /><br />http://www.tmz.com/2013/07/25/aeg-celine-dion-michael-jackson-wrongful-death-lawsuit/<br /><br />

        Oh come on. Was this added to the trial for comedic relief? Nothing against Celine, she has an amazing voice, but Michael is in a unique status of his own.  Hi Harvey...here's another fun fact. Michael may be ranked no 3 in record sales behind the Beatles and Elvis.....but  then he does own a S##t load of their music in his catalogs. Clever boy.

    <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />It is true, with all due respect that mercer Celine Dion as an artist I don't think that she will have the amount of fans that has MJ at the global level.<br /><br />

    <br /><br />Love this - Michael is a genius for sure!  I also respect Celine but I cannot name many of her songs (and as great as Titanic is it only is a hit because of the movie - doubtful that it would have made the same level on its own IMHO). Also to be considered, she just stands on stage and sings. Michael is the full package. No comparison if you ask me.<br /><br />Blessings to you :)
  • Celine is a singer, very good singer but Michael is a singer + dancer + composer = The best Entertainer on Earth, Period.  :michael-jackson: :moonwalk_:

    Leave it to AEG to try to get some free advertising  :icon_rolleyes:<br /><br /><br />Loved this interview with Celine about Michael (and some of the ironic comments she made)....<br /><br />Good job Larry! :icon_cool:<br /><br />
