Michael Jackson anyday anytime.

Remove Eminem and Taylor Swift from that list. Even 2pac is still more famous than Eminem.

Op the question should have been who's the second most famous celebrities of all time. Michael Jackson is in a world of his own. Nobody comes close

Eminem and Taylor Swift should even be replaced by Mohammed Ali of blessed memory...
Only Jesus-Christ is world famous than legendary MJ on earth...

Eminem shouldn't be on that list.

Same as Taylor Swift.

People in rural areas wouldn't know who they are, but they'd definitely have heard of Michael Jackson.

Lol... I didn't even know that that wS Taylor Swift!
MJ wins hands down. I mean... My son was disappointed to learn MJ was already late when he learnt a few months ago

My Great grand parents knew Michael Jackson, my unborn kids know Michael Jackson.

It's quite disrespectful to compare him with other mortals.

Eminem would have been no. 2 but he intential decided to refuse major international gigs round the world just to be available for his daughter Hailey. TuPac 003, Hulk Hogan should be no. 4. No doubt MJ is 001.

Michael Jackson, no doubt. There's something magical about him. Everyone knows Michael. When he died, even grandmas who are not literate knew there was a man.

Rest on, King of Pop!

No single African celebrity on the list. What kind of racism is this?

Michael Jackson is the world’s most famous celebrity.

The only person I can think of in Africa is Nelson Mandela….who else? Politics, sports, music…
