Celebrities Are Worth More Dead Than Alive | Documentary

[@dollz4ever]

I've been saying this for years. A dead celebrity is much more profitable than an alive celebrity. Because once they are dead that image is solidified and the character/image is forever set in stone. Look at James Dean he is forever young, never old and never became a has been. Look at Kurt Cobain, we never got see him age or have a artistic creative decline. We never get to see these celebrities change. They will forever be who we perceive them as: one dimensional archetypes with no depth who we will forever buy into.

It’s absolutely disgusting!! They shouldn’t be able to get away with this. SMH

[@elchapo6732]

They get away with it because guess who allowed it? Our own humans, just like you and me and who ever reads this in society created all this bs lmao, but hey, everyone is apparently just realizing the shit that has been going since the conceived concept of governments, Govern Mental.

Why do I feel like Liam Payne is going to be a mini example of this... One Direction's albums have been back on the charts for the first time in about nine years since his passing

[@tiamarie1226]

Please consider doing long form ....i love wheh docs are 20min to 1 hr. These are good but sometimes short as i wish certain things were expanded

[@DOCU]

I want to but I do not like to speak ad nauseam.

[@miguelpereira9859]

​@@DOCUPlease don't do long form I'm sick of all the bloated boring waste of time essays on youtube these days

[@guhsuckyamudda586]

​@@miguelpereira9859 Sick of it too.

[@Mahlak_Mriuani_Anatman]

Bloated stuff ain't cool

[@nottodaysatan101]

What is wrong with Forbes coming up with that horrible list?!

[@BucketHeadianHagg]

EXCELLENT work on this, DOCU! Thank you so much for the new upload! I love this channel!

[@DOCU]

thanks for watching 🧸

[@MelaniaRose]

Art and Music teachers say this all the time

[@joe2k20]

True even look at juice world for example. Labels are making a profit off his death. It's disturbing

[@quintoonartt]

Deserves more views

[@estherjones141]

😂😂😂it just posted around 2 hours

[@DOCU]

it’s still valid! 😂

[@user-bg7hj8ft1j]

@DOCU Is there a full version of this documentary?

[@Luckimee]

Seems like a demand for more attorneys defending the artists

[@mustafamehdi1663]

Marliyn Monroe despite being the top billing actress of the decade did not have that much money her iconic image is arguably the most popular of all time and it has been sold again and again time after time at 4 years old i started to realise this blonde woman was everywhere from paintings in restaurants to car commercials or on my moms makeup products its kind of legendary that in popularity no actress or woman of entertainment will come close to her but its kind of sad that people who never knew her are practically selling her for now 70 years its sad we see her as the greatest product ever produced and not as a human and it was the view of suxh enormous celebs as products that led to many of their demise

[@Ladolcevitaprincess]

Although it seemed like she was the top actress she was simply not but she Get that acclaim due to her image and the way the public views her as some sort of tragicity and she was not that appreacieted or given chance to prove herself or change the way people view her

[@mustafamehdi1663]

@ she never got a chance to show her range but she was the top billing actress and thats an actual fact like search it up her films grossed over 2 billion dollars of todays time and she became the second female producer in Hollywood

[@Ladolcevitaprincess]

@@mustafamehdi1663 not true she was for sure sharing her limelight people always run with her being the most famous woman in hollywood when that just isn’t true it was Elizabeth Taylor who was the top actress and was the first actress to be paid a huge salary with 1 million and we not gonna act like Audrey Hepburn wasn’t in the same limelight as her in 50s same with Grace Kelly

[@mustafamehdi1663]

@ man i litr told u thats a fact go search it up its not an opinion elizabeth taylor came to fame after she died and her films were the highest grossing of the 50s for an actress i like grace kelly more but this is not an opinion again she was an icon than and her legacy only became more iconic after her death

[@mustafamehdi1663]

@ well she did share limelight with other icons but she for sure far more famous than them after her death and since most of them had bigger tragedies I wouldn’t say her misery brought her to fame more like the image she built or who she was

[@Betttty]

Clive Still having that party after Whitney's death is wild and maybe this is a conspiracy but maybe her daughter was killed to have completely own her estate Gias story is so sad and apparently her biopic is exaggerated

[@mrironlunglungzielungzietv6697]

They can't outsell alive mj albums to dead mj albums though

[@jaychulo.F]

A dead Michael Jackson album is still gonna sell regardless that’s their whole point 😂

[@LandoHendrix444]

Not all celebrities are worth more dead. Some understood the power of their names and took full advantage. Elizabeth Taylor being their first that I could think of. She was a true business woman, opening up doors for others to follow. Also, performers like Madonna, Beyoncé, Rihanna and Taylor Swift are business women who refuse to accept offers less than they are worth. Some legends were unfortunately all about the art. In reality, you have to be about the art and the money.

[@GM-dp3ef]

this is what happened to britney spears, she’s gone. her brand was worth more without her and she hasn’t been seen in public in 5 years. the same people who own prince cobain michael are in control of britney’s brand

[@Carroty_Peg]

Can you dive into the idea that culture has completely frozen -- remakes, 20 series of Big Brother, reality shows, recycling and nothing new.

[@hellobye7697]

Only person this doesn’t apply to is Madonna. 66 years old and she’s still earning money like she did in the 80s

[@cherishllove]

BECAUSE SHE wasn’t loud about the rules of the kabal of the club

[@SariTempet]

Why was she among the Tidal lineup then?

[@hellobye7697]

@ because it’s extra money. Pocket change for her

[@mrironlunglungzielungzietv6697]

The Michael Jackson movies exciting waiting to see how it comes out

[@eliseevensen1750]

Every artist is.. Musicians, painters, comedians, actors.. All of them..

[@timbit72]

[@jahleillewis1743]

Did they have a posthumous album?

[@ManifestALibra]

@@jahleillewis1743sure did right after her death

[@BlueCherryWinters]

At the very end, he mentions her

[@elmin82]

amazing video

[@DOCU]

thanks!

[@PrettyboyAshtun]

they can get away with more and have more money that’s why some labels even do the death of their own artists.

[@georgemorenstein]

STARWHACKERS 'R' US ?

[@SariTempet]

I can't like this more enough. I don't buy music except for rare occasions. I can't support a machine.

[@mjrotondi5086]

Just enjoy the music, you’ll never figure out these people. They are too different in every way and not worth the time.

[@willdelarosa9440]

All entertainers are fake to begin with... 😢

[@terrancecobb6802]

They should really read those contracts they sign, instead of thinking about fame.

[@farihienne]

How does Michael do a broadway show if he dead?

[@DOCU]

an actor plays him on stage. that’s common sense, i fear.

[@MsG55580]

Third Wave Feminist Movement slogan: "If you can SEE HER, you can BE HER...." chilling.

Also they are not alive to piss away their money

[@mrironlunglungzielungzietv6697]

I ca t wait till they have proper holograms that take film and project that actual performance minus the background into the foreground they have done a few good ones with gorilla's and Tupac too but I mean actual person from film that's not too far away maybe 20 years maybe sooner if there's any breakthroughs but I've seen mj live and if they could re produce that they have gold In there hands
