Lauryn Hill sentenced to 3 months in jail for tax evasion | News

Despite reports that she had settled her tax bill for the full outstanding amount early today, news has just broken that Lauryn Hill has been sentenced to three months in jail for tax evasion, as she failed to pay taxes on about $1.8m of earnings between 2005-2007.

The former Fugee member and multi award winning singer and rapper, who released her latest track “Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)” a few days ago, plead guilty to the charges late last year and in addition to the jail time, she also faces up to three months of home confinement.
