WHITNEY HOUSTON
February 11, 2012 (48)†
$30 Million
Whitney Houston would have turned 60 in 2023—and her fans will always love her. Her estate is simultaneously celebrating its biggest year yet, thanks to a biopic and several brand collaborations. In December, the film Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance With Somebody grossed nearly $60 million worldwide. And MAC Cosmetics released a makeup collection with the Houston estate, which is run by her sister-in-law, Pat Houston, and Primary Wave.
