Question: Why did Michael Jackson become more famous and popular after the death of the pop star?

( Back )

Answer #1:

Because society is stupid and they like to pretend that they like the celebrities that recently died.

In reality, nobody ever gave a $hit.

Answer #2:

i dunno maybe because people liked him better that way

Answer #3:

Yes
He was popular either way though, but he did gain more fans obviously

Answer #4:

He didn't become more famous. He was already the most famous celebrity in the world.

And as for popularity, he was the 3rd biggest selling artist of all time - he was always popular.

Although he did gain more fans. My 2 younger nieces who previousely only knew a few songs (through me) are now completely in love with him!
The younger generation are being introduced to some real music like his than the bullcrap we hear on radio's today - hence he gained more fans.

Answer #5:

Because I guess a lot more people got into him after he died. I mean, his death was a HUGE event and practically everyone knew about it and then his new movie came out, and albums came out, and he got big again. Before his death he was kind of just a washed up used to be. But in his glory days of his life he was amazing.

Answer #6:

Because people felt bad for treating him like shit all them years and turning their backs on him.
Know that he's dead, they acknowledge the work he actually did was amazing.

Society is messed up. Everyone is two faced and fake.

:)

Answer #7:

I totally agree with Ryan J

Answer #8:

Cuz. Why did Elvis? You get on my nerves.

Answer #9:

^^ ryan j says it all

Answer #10:

Because That's when he was recognized the most I guess.
I mean There are some fans that grew up on his music in the 80's ...so...

Answer #11:

Yes, apparently. He also has several million more fans than he did when he was alive.

Answer #12:

he didnt becaome more popular he was just extrememly famous when he was alive so of course his death is going to be widely known and spoken about.

Answer #13:

they were playing him every wher
then all of a sudden
pop comes the new fans

Answer #14:

Because Millions loved him before his death and millions found out his real talent after death making him more popular and now all of us fans griefed and love him.

Answer #15:

He just re-gained his fans. He used to be the same level of fame, but after his 2005 trial pretty much nobody in america cared for him anymore. Just so happens to be when he died, he gained back his normal level of fame. And trust me on this one, cause I know.

Answer #16:

he was famous and popular all his life
way before his death
he has the best selling album and is the king of pop

Answer #17:

I don't think he necessarily become any more famous. (He's been well-known throughout the world for practically all of his life.) I just think that his fans came back full force after his passing along with all of the people who never got the chance to become his fan during his lifetime. Many artists have gotten even more recognition and acknowledgment after their death. Although it's kind of bitter sweet in a way, that's just how it works sometimes. But either way, at least most people finally respect and honor him like they should've been doing a long time ago.
