Lauryn Hill gets 3 months for failing to pay taxes

She's a racist loser who thinks she is above the law, and everybody else for that matter.

Is this what normally happens to some one who generates literally billions of dollars for the economy?

Luaryn Hill has not released an Album in 10+ years and she does not tour at all. The link didnt work for me,so i cant confirm what it says, but that 600K may be her networth because i dont see how she could be making 600,000 a year.

She went wacko about 5 years ago. She got caught up with a cult leader

I wouldn't quite label her racist, more anti-establishment

LOL! Bling? That statement alone shows how little you know about Lauryn Hill. I don't advocate her not paying her taxes. Hell, if I have to pay mine then she should pay hers. But she's about as anti-bling as they come in the music industry. You have clearly equated her with a "bling" lifestyle simply based on her genre of music. Please don't post this kind of nonsense when you obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

600K/year is WAY rich, so yes, she should be punished.

The bankers should be punished too but that's another story.

Maybe she'll break out of the big house and flee to Cuba?
