Hmm.

It's all about the money...

We have Arras, Paris, Nice, Cannes... (shows)

If he doesn't pay we will not see him in France soon.

How different will this be from the Italian tax situation he had?

(it took quite a while for him to perform in Italy again...)

Hhmmmm.....so Ernst and Young or KMPG are not doing their work properly. Or is Prince showing the French authorities the proverbial finger?

Those accountants have been caught aiding and abetting fraud before, really!

Are they indeed mr P's accoutants?

What construction would they have set up so that they thought tax was not (so) applicable?

Any estimates of the income from the French 2010 & 2011 shows?

What tax cut are we talking about?

This is a bunch of BS. You don't know what you're talking about.

That excuse might have worked the first or 2nd time this shit has happened. Not anymore.

Prince has sung, at length, about his disapproval of the tax system and now you wanna say it's not his fault he didn't pay them? Are you insane?

why so much negativity on here. I miss the early years of the org.

I miss when we didn't have so many things happen that tunred the fans negative just as well. It's not like EVERYONE looks for this stuff. The common thread is not always the fans but the person we are a fan of. I'm not saying it is all deserved, but as a fan of any artist the hypocrisy and not so great business dealings get under your skin and affect your reaction to news like this. I understand the sane reaction might be to stop reading or paying attention. But that's sort of what fans do- they pay attention. REAL HARD....

I don't know, it depends on the bilateral treaty France and the US have.
