Rush Hour star Chris Tucker reportedly owes the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) $11.5 million in unpaid taxes. HOT DAMN!
Tucker who was paid $20 Million Dollars for each “Rush Hour” movie sequel owes this huge sum for failing to pay to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) taxes in 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006. WTF?
Officials at the IRS have now filed documents with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s Office to launch legal proceedings in the hope of retrieving the unpaid taxes.
With the IRS hot on his heels, Chris Tucker is reportedly trying to unload his suburban Orlando mansion for an asking price way lower than what he paid. The tax-troubled star listed the Montverde property for $2 million even though he paid $6 million for it just three years ago.
I just don’t understand these celebrities. How do you go broke making that much money! That’s a damn shame!

Ok, it amazes me that the IRS take so long to get the big money. And did he not pay 2001, 2002, but paid 2003??? Ya’ll the IRS is no joke when it comes to getting you. They got my *ss for 2008 even though I paid in federal enough to employee some one at minimum wage for the year. The state of California is worst, they got me too! Thank goodness I had my son otherwise I would still be paying both of them.

I’ve seen way too many Afro-American celebs under investigation, doing time and loosing everything for not paying taxes….ummmmm this seems SUSPECT! I don’t believe for one minute that these stars refuse to pay taxes. I believe the IRS’ practices need to be investigated; missing several years of auditing their own records is the crime, and they rack up on INTEREST, so why hurry; but the citizen gets penalized! Or, accountants are stealing and pencil-whooping books.
