Hollywood Stars with IRS Issues

MSNBC put together a list of the top 10 Hollywood stars who have had issues with the IRS. On the list are:andJ-Lo's nanny, Marc Anthony was hit up in 2007 and had to pay back $2.5 million in back taxes. Word is that he never filed his returns for 2000-2004 while bringing in $15.5 million. Nice! No charges were brought against the "singer" but two of his associates plead guilty to tax felonies.





Wesley Snipes accidentally forgot to file about $10 million from 1999-2004. Things were looking pretty serious for a while and the Blade actor could have spent as much as 16 years in prison. Snipes ended up pretty much with a slap on the hand and received 3 misdemeanor counts for failing to file his taxes.

In 1990 country music legend Willie Nelson felt the hit when he was ordered to pay back a whooping $16.7 million in back taxes. The singer ended up selling his assets and writing and records more hits to pay back the money.

First time winner of the show Survivor, Richard Hatch, cashed in his million dollars in 2000 and ooops...forgot to pay the taxes. Now this is my favorite because he went to the big house and is not getting released until 2009. Now is this a case of not having the right lawyer to fight your fraud? Seems odd that the guy who owed the least paid the most.

We recapped just a few of our favorites. To see the full list check it out here.
