You think Prince personally does his own stuff? Or does he have, ya know, people who do that kind of thing? An accountant maybe?  And we know Prince always hires the most capable people he can find. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

I dont see how these celebrities think they can get away with hundreds of thousands or even millions. Makes no sense to me. Who said Prince is "getting away" with not paying his taxes? Maybe he really has not seen the bill(s). And if he has I'm sure he will be paying them. I don't see it's anyones business but Prince's and the Debt collector. Sad in America that this makes headlines. Even more sad that the star tribune can't find better "Headlines". Peace. Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews. | |

Paris9748430 said: errant said: yeah, i get it. u  Prince. is that all?Yeah, because I'm not willing to dogpile on a non-story like this, I'm in love with Prince!!! [Flame snip - luv4u] Not everybody who's defending Prince wants to jump his bones. Some people like me, think people here need to get lives of their own and stop worrying about the day to day business decisions of a musician. Like I said earlier, this is a non-story, not because I think someone is "picking on Prince. But because when you're in business, you tend to get large tax bills. Next time you might wanna think before you type. This isn't over the issue of him having a large tax bill. It's over the issue of him NOT PAYING said large tax bill. Repeatedly. Apparently. | |

Look at all the members of Congress and the cabinet who do it... We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I hope he hasn't burned too many bridges with past associates who probably still care about him. The people who were there before he became successful. This does make me wonder about pics for sale on e-bay though, and the neighborhood friend who wouldn't be identified. No legal talk about anything to do with them would be considered.  Hope he finds an appropriate solution for his problems. Seems he needs to  himself. | |

I wonder if Graycap can elaborate on his quote in the other thread regarding the lotusflower web site. He seems to get good info and I'm hoping he isn't right when he said:
"Graycap23 1 word: BUST." | |

Prince owes hundreds of thousands of dollars in back taxes, interest and fines on various properties that could end up being forfeited if the bills aren't paid. PRN Music Corp., home to the pop musician's Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, owes more than $221,000 for 2009 taxes due the state, the Chaska School District and a host of other government bodies, according to a legal notice of delinquent taxes published last week in the Chaska Herald. Numerous other properties in the county associated with Prince by his full name, Prince R. Nelson, also are on the delinquency list. Dollar totals range from about $268 to roughly $180,000. No other property owner listed comes close to what the county says Prince needs to cough up. Conceivably, property on last week's list could be forfeited, but that would be a few years down the road, said taxpayer services manager Laurie Engelen. As required, the county sent Prince a notification letter on Feb. 15 about the delinquencies, Engelen said. She said she and others are unaware of Prince responding to either the letter or the published list. Prince has been late other times paying his tax bill, Engelen said. On the studios, the bill was paid late in 2006 and 2008. He also was late in 2008 paying on a 156-acre swath bordering his home. Representatives for Prince could not immediately be reached for comment. Now I know You can tell the difference right? Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews. | |

It's public record and yes, often stories do get written about prominent citizens paying their taxes late. If it were someone else would you be questioning it?
The legal notices section of the newspapers in most jurisdictions post legal notices of lawsuits, divorces, forclosures, tax liens, etc routinely. Recognizable names are sometimes picked up by reporters and a story gets written. So yes, having actually worked the publication of legal notices desk at the courthouse during my 23 years in government service I know the difference, but thanks anyway. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

How can ANYONE think he's being picked on? I live in Carver County. $200,000 is a lot of money. If I have to pay taxes, so does he.
He's ripped off Fans, not payed his taxes. Prince does not care about ANYONE but Prince. I'm done supporting this S.O.B. "So strange that no one stayed at the end of the Parade..." - Wendy & Lisa's "Song About" on their 1987 self-titled album.
