Mary J Blige

As reported 5/20/2013:

Mary J. Blige's financial woes have QUADRUPLED -- on top of the $900k she allegedly owes the Garden State, TMZ has learned MJB has been slapped with a $3.4 MILLION bill from Uncle Sam.

The IRS filed a federal tax lien against the Grammy winner, claiming she failed to pay all her income taxes for the years 2009 ($574,907.30), 2010 ($2,203,743.53) and 2011 ($647,604.60).

Tax bill grand total: $3,426,255.43. Translation: A LOT OF FREAKING MONEY.

Of course, the IRS needs to get in line ... the State of NJ says MJB still owes $901,769.65 in back taxes. Blige is being sued for allegedly defaulting on a $2.2 million bank loan and her charity is facing a lawsuit that claims it took out a $250k loan and never paid it back.

We reached out to Mary's team for comment -- so far nada. We also alerted them to TurboTax.

SMH. IDC if you have an accountant or whatever, it's your money. You should be making sure that things are being handled properly and that your bills are being paid. Anytime I hear celebs owing the IRS I always think either they DGAF or they just don't pay enough attention to their finances to make sure business is being taken care of. A damn shame either way.

I guess that's why she's going on tour. She needs the $$$.
