The Detroit News reported on Tuesday that the state of Mississippi had placed a tax lien against JC Chasez in October, with claims that Chasez owes $206,965 in back taxes.
Well according to a rep for Chasez, the claim isn’t against his client, but rather it is against the group ‘NSYNC.
A manager for Chasez says:
“This is a dispute between ‘NSync and the state of Mississippi that stems back from an ‘NSync performance in the state. Since ‘NSync no longer exists, the state is going after each member individually. He was the principal member of ‘NSync, the front guy, so they are going after him first. This is still an open dispute with ‘NSync as a whole and ‘NSync is looking to get it all resolved.”
The group, ‘NSync took a hiatus following its 2002 Celebrity Tour, and has not reunited for any performance since 2005.
I guess even a shit hole like Mississippi needs some extra cash in this economy!
