Being In Queen Literally Pays Dividends

Each of the surviving members is now £10m better off, according to reports

Published 1st Jul 2011

The Mirror reports that the band's company Queen Productions Limited recently posted a £44m profit, which resulted in a massive £10m dividend payout to each of its three shareholders - Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon.

The news comes as the band reissue five of their albums as deluxe 2CD editions.

More reissues are due later this year, plus the long running We Will Rock You musical is not looking likely to close anytime soon so the band can probably expect another little payout next year.
