none of the singers today have that sort of impact like MJ, whether its record sales or charity work...
i think either one of them big bands could make a case...but thats about it...
nobody
I'm not aware of any other pedophiles that people like, so I agree with Sonic.
Nobody!
I think Usher came close with his dance moves. But other than that, no one today comes close. Name wise and star power in the music industry now since MJ has passed probably has to go to Brittany Spears. I know it;s not close to the star power MJ commanded, but who else is there?
Earthworms?
madonna could make a case for herself....material girl
Madonna. And maybe Bono. But I think even those are a stretch.
Right now?
Madonna, Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez are the only 3 really in his stratosphere.
Jennifer Lopez about 5 years ago probably comes closest to MJ.
When Madonna kicks it there'll be similar reaction as there was to Jackson's death(unless she kicks it when she's 80 or so).
lady gaga
Capretta
I hate to say it, but maybe Britanny Spears (right now)
She has kind of followed MJ's path. She had a bunch of hits when she first came out, was a good dancer, etc. However, the media has made a circus of her life in recent years. But, nobody can draw the attention of the media like she can. And she is recognized all over the world.
As far as longevity, probably Madonna. She has been very famoues for almost three decades, and she is very talanted and innovative. However, there just isn't that much contaversy that surrounds her these days.
WTF ?
None of those amateurs
There will never be another MJ, but if i HAD to chose one it would probably be Britney Spears....
The question is a bit absurd insofar as Michael Jackson is among the elite of the elite of the elite in his field -- a transcendant presence that will carry on for a very, very long time. Honestly, when I think of someone on Michael Jackson's "level," I think of people like John Lennon. Of those who are still alive, Paul McCartney, Madonna, or Bob Dylan comes closest as an individual performer in my mind; U2 is a worthwhile comparison and if you're just talking about the entertainment part of the equation, I think the Rolling Stones might be worthy of inclusion in the conversation.
It's hard to find comparisons with someone rightly called "The King" of anything.
no one...
You go to some no name country in a cave and they would most likely know about mj or what he's done. Can't say that about anyone else....at least at the present time.
Calvin Murphy or Roman Polanski.

I honestly dont think anyone comes close to the popularity of Michael. You go to Kenya or some other out of the way area and mention Michael and practically everyone will know instantly who you are talking about. I dont think ANYONE else has THAT kind of name.
No one. Michael Jackson was as popular as Elvis and The Beatles. Billions of people on this planet have heard of Michael Jackson. MJ may have been a little weird but he was a very successful, talented, and popular singer. I'm not sure if there will be another singer as iconic and popular like him for a long time.
Whottt do you remember the media hoopla with Britney Spears just last year? If that girl would get her straight she could be on Jackson's level. People love/loved that girl.
As a country music fan, Taylor Swift seems to be transforming country music and is making a huge fan base, and by the end of her careeer she might be bigger than Reba.
