Mary J Blige

Mary J. Bills! Singer’s Financial Woes Continue as She Gets Smacked with a 900K Tax Lien

Mary J Blige’s finances seem to be spiraling out of control.  TMZ reports that she has no been hit with a tax lien for failing to pay $901,769.65 in taxes.

Let’s walk thru her financial problems shall we:

  • Her latest is the New Jersey Tax lien for $900K
  •  Bank of America sued Blige in January for defaulting on a $500,000 loan.  She took the loan out in 2005 and hadn’t made a payment on it since June 2012.
  •  Manhattan’s Signature Bank sued Blige and her husband for a $2.2 million dollar loan. They took the loan in October of 2011 and haven’t made any payments.  She owes the full amount plus almost $60,000 in interest.
  • Her Charity owes $250,000.  I covered that sotry last may.  The Charity that she runs with Steve Stoute was acused of mishandling funds and racked up debts equaling a quarter of a million dollars.

After 8 multi-platinum albums Mary J Blige has a net worth estimated at $40 million.  There is no reason she should be taking out loans and certainly no reason she shouldn’t be paying them back.

I know what happened…..see… she has a checking and a savings….Right Kev?
