She may have pre-dated her musically, but Mary J. Blige is following in Lauryn Hill's footsteps in her dealings with the IRS. Which is to say that Blige just got sent a $3.4 million bill from the U.S. tax system, claiming that the singer hadn't filed taxes in 2009, 2010 or 2011. Her total bill, according to TMZ?

$3,426,255.43.

Ouch.

She last graced these proud pages back in February, when it was revealed that the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul owed the state of New Jersey somewhere in the area of $900,000. In addition, she's been sued for defaulting on a $2.2 million loan, while a charity she runs is facing yet another lawsuit that claims they never paid back a $250,000 loan they'd taken out as well.
