The State of California slapped Faith with a tax lien earlier this year, debt for the year 2011 ... to the tune of $29,535.48.
Faith Evans is yet another celebrity who has landed herself in trouble over unpaid taxes.
Reports
from TMZ allege earlier this year the state of California billed Evans
with a $29,535.48 tax lien that has been unpaid since 2011. This is not
the first of Evans money woes. In 2010, the famed R&B singer and
widow of Notorious B.I.G was forced to pay the IRS more than $360,000 in
taxes that dated back to 2008.
Evans is not the first celebrity to be slapped with a bill over delinquent taxes. Grammy award winning singer and rapper Lauryn Hill was recently sentenced to three months in state prison for tax evasion of nearly $1 million.
Just as her name suggests, we know Evan’s faith will help her overcome this small infraction. In a recent interview
with ESSENCE, Evans shared just how instrumental her faith has been in
her 20-year long career. “I’ve always been very grounded in my faith in
God, who has helped me sustain things that have come before me. God has a
way of enabling you to overcome.”
Evans, who is also co-executive
producer of the hit reality television show “R&B Divas”, has much
to look forward to in the future. This summer Evans will take to the
stage at the ESSENCE Festival
in New Orleans. She says she’s looking forward to giving her fans a
little something more than what she’s recorded on her five albums. “My
fans like to hear songs from my records, but I know where the right
places are to switch it up. I give them more than what they’ve heard on
the record.”
