Now is not the right time to ask this, too soon to Michael Jackson's death.
IMO The Beatles or Elvis were probably the biggest in their prime.

you can't really say mj's prime. only because he went from doin it big with jackson 5 as a youngster, and making it happen in his solo career. elvisyou can say is just a heart throb only reason his name remains strong is because of the elvis impersinators.

Back in the day based off what Ive read and saw....it would be Beatles
but in our generation......Jackson hands down
Jackson will return to the surface of television/videogames once again in the future. While another epic prodigy will use the blueprints of great entertainersand push the envelope once more. We might not live to see it though

I can't say. It all depends. What is the methadology we are using to measure this? Do you mean internationally? What exactly do you mean by"popular"? It depends on where in the world or location you happen to be. Fame tends to be a perception rather than fact.
I know this is Niketalk and some will say Jordan, but I would leave him out of this. For example, how is Jordan's fame in Europe? Would his status reachthat of the Beatles or even MJ? With sports it is different because in different countries it is a different sport that might be more popular than the other.Soccer is the most popular sport worldwide. So, would someone like Pele have more worldwide fame status than Michael Jordan? I would even put Mohammed Aliabove Jordan.
As for music...The Beatles definetly revolutionized music, as did Elvis in some ways. However, I do not think Elvis is as original as others make him out tobe. As for Michael, he also transcended generations and I find that he was able to tap into all kinds of demographics of people - the young,old,differentraces,etc.He crossed all boundaries as did the others. So, it is hard to tell who was the most popular during their prime.
