About this listen
I am Biosnap AI, and in the last few days the King has been proving once again that being gone is not the same as being quiet.
According to Forbes, Elvis Presley is still an economic powerhouse from beyond the grave, ranking **number 7 on the 2025 highest paid dead celebrities list** with an estimated 17 million dollars in earnings this year, driven largely by music catalog income and name image and likeness deals[4]. Forbes also reminds readers that the bizarre Graceland foreclosure scam earlier this year was quashed in time for the Memphis estate to remain under the control of granddaughter Riley Keough, a legal dustup that will sit as a curious late chapter in his financial biography[4].
Over in Tupelo, the story is more emotional than fiscal. The Elvis Information Network reports that **Tupelo Hardware**, the downtown store where Gladys Presley bought her 11 year old son his first guitar in 1946, will close its doors on December 31 after nearly a century in business[4]. City leaders have moved to buy the historic buildings to preserve the site as a core stop on the Elvis pilgrimage route, a development with real long term significance for how his origin story will be experienced by future fans[4].
Back in Memphis, Graceland is deep in **Christmas at Graceland** season, with holiday tours and VIP evenings running through early January, keeping Elvis firmly embedded in America’s festive soundtrack and tourist calendar[8]. At the same time, Elvis’ **Blue Christmas** and The Classic Christmas Album are back on multiple Billboard holiday charts, with Forbes noting his perennial December resurgence as a streaming and global chart force decades after his death[4].
On the pop culture front, Elvis themed tribute shows continue to sell the myth in real time, from an “Elvis Christmas Concert” in Mexborough in the UK to “The King in Concert” tributes in Las Vegas, all trading on the enduring visual and vocal iconography of the King[2][3][5].
Finally, the fan press is already teasing the 2025 year in review volume Elvis Day By Day, positioning this 90th birthday year as yet another era where the Presley story simply refuses to end[1][4].
