Slang phrase for dead

Pushing up daisies

2. Opposite of pull
 
Equivalents:
1. Feeding the worms
2. Dead as a doornail
 
Explanation:
He's pushing up daisies. This is a rather mean way to refer to the dead, so one would only use it in regard to a rather unsavory character, especially a celebrity.
