Lauryn Hill Gets Three Months In Jail

Yesterday, Lauryn Hill went into court thinking she would not have to serve any jail time because she had scraped up enough money to pay most of the nearly $1M in back taxes she owed. She had faced one year in jail for each of the three years she had not paid her taxes. Two months ago, the judge hearing her case told Lauryn she was going to face the max in jail unless she paid. At that time she still had paid no money. Yesterday, Lauryn was sentenced to three months in jail.

    She basically said, in effect, that she didn't know how to pay her taxes because she is the child of "former slaves". Really Lauryn? You weren't the child of former slaves when you were living the high life and getting impregnated every other year right? Love when people change shit to fit their situations (and this comes from one of her biggest fans).

    Before she was sentenced Lauryn Hill explained,

    "I was put into a system I didn't know the nature of. I'm a child of former slaves. I got into an economic paradigm and had that imposed on me. I sold 50 million units. Now I'm up here paying a tax debt. If that's not likened to slavery, I don't know what is."

    You damn right!!!!!

    They need to investigate those tax exempt organizations like Armstrong's Livestrong and Susan G. Komen. I know those mofos are cheating.

    The IRS doesn't mess around. The only way Lilo will ever go to jail is if she stiffs them.

    I was about to say the same thing Montana. Lauren Hill hasn't hurt a soul with a car and yet she gets jail. But that crack Ho Lohag gets away with everything. She must have some serious dirt on people in the courts.

    @meganoom what's wrong with wearing livestrong wrist bands. Is it because they used to be affiliated with lance Armstrong?

    Its because one is about the government not getting its stolen money. The other is simply about some eone is a complete and utter threat to the publics safety. Government only cares about one.

    If you don't like paying taxes move to Monaco like all the other rich people who don't want to pay taxes.
