Forget about the Tea Party. The Internal Revenue Service seems to be out for blood when it comes to R&B singers residing in New Jersey. First Lauryn Hill was sentenced to jail for failing to pay income taxes over three years. Now the I.R.S. has hit Mary J. Blige and her husband, who live in Cresskill, with a $3.4 million tax lien, according to The Associated Press. Court documents assert that Ms. Blige owes more than $574,000 for the 2009 tax year, more than $2.2 million for 2010 and $647,000 for 2011. A representative for Ms. Blige told The A.P. that she was working to resolve the dispute as quickly as possible.
