Lauryn Hill has 2 weeks to pay the IRS $500,000

Somber signer Lauryn Hill was spotted leaving a Newark, New Jersey court Monday (April 22) after a judge postponed her sentencing and gave her two weeks to pay $504,000 she owes the IRS in back taxes. Hill, 37, fell behind in her taxes after claiming she took a 3-year hiatus from show biz to find herself. Prosecutors charged the Grammy winner with “willfully failing to file income tax returns with the IRS” for 3 years. According to Hill, she wasn’t obligated to pay taxes for those 3 years since she wasn’t working. But the judge disagreed, saying Hill earned a modest sum of 1.8 million dollars from 2005-2007. She faces up to 5 years in jail and an additional $100,000 in fines.

*vibing* Daymn Lauryn get it together and come BACK!!!

The sweetest thing I’ve ever known
Was like the kiss on the collarbone
Soft caress of happiness
The way you walk, your style of dress
I wish I didn’t get so weak
Ooo, baby, just to hear you speak
Makes me argue just to see
How much you’re in love with me
See, like a queen, a queen upon her throne

I know she got a lot of complaints on tours though. Being late, acting erratic. Wonder how much of that tour money made it into her pocket VS what was refunded or forfeited.

The fact that she settled out of court rather than fight to save her name…umm says guilty to me. $5 million? She settled for $ 5million. Right after she settled too…the dude who just took her back TODAY; kicked her azz off his label. Tommy Motolla paid that $5 million most likely. The bulk of it anyway.

Also the lawsuit aganest Lauryn about her maybe not writing those songs way back when (01 I think)…was a fed case. Not sure what the fugg made it FEDERAL in nature…but it was. They don’t get their money in the next 13 days I PROMISE that the IRS is going to throw the book at her azz.

Not one but two instances where the Feds is in your shat?

@ otb…That might be true The album was classic but after the songwriting issue she fell off. Hell she can barely perform those songs anymore without adding some dumb shyt or speeding up the tracks
