Foxy Brown, Toni Braxton In Tax Trouble

Rapper Foxy Brown and R&B singer Toni Braxton are the latest celebrities to run afoul of the Internal Revenue Service.

 

Of the two, Brown owes the most, as the IRS is seeking $641,558 in federal taxes due to the state of New York.

 

A tax lien was filed against Brown in June for taxes owed as far back as May of 2003.

 

A tax lien was issued against the Brooklyn emcee for missing tax payments in the years 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006.

 

The lien is the latest issue for Foxy Brown, who was accused of receiving favorable treatment while incarcerated on Rikers Island as part of a scandal currently dogging the New York Corrections Department.

 

Several top officials, including Correction Chief Peter Curico and prison Rabbi Leib Glanz have resigned due to allegations that Brown, Orthodox Jews and were treated better than other inmates.

 

In related news, this past March, the state of California issued a lien against R&B singer Toni Braxton and her husband Keirston Lewis as well, claiming the couple owes $79,315 in back taxes.

 

Braxton has faced financial hardships before, as she filed for bankruptcy protection in 1998 with over $1 million dollars of debt.

So taking time off because of health problems and raising a son with Autism is lazy to you? You need your head examined.

These taxes are getting really bad...And they're only going to get higher!

YOU made sure of that November 4, when you voted a noted supporter of rampant tax increases and wasteful government spending into the White House!  At least Bush never RAISED any taxes for y'all!  If y'all had listened to me and voted for JOHN MCCAIN like I so strongly advised, this could be avoided!  But nooooo, you HAD to drink the Kool-Aid!

Is this the "change" you were hoping for?  Having second thoughts?

Y'all made
