"Rush Hour" star Chris Tucker in Serious Trouble for Not Paying Taxes - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 07-28-2009, 10:08 AM

Actor Chris Tucker is famous for his high-pitched voice, so it's easy to imagine the shriek he may have made after the state of California slapped the "Rush Hour" star with a $3.6 million tax lien last month.

The 37-year-old Atlanta native might have become rich ($20 million per flick) and famous thanks to the "Rush Hour" franchise, but he launched his movie career in a less critically-acclaimed franchise playing third banana to Kid 'n Play in "House Party 3."

The state of California filed a $3,594,409 lien against Tucker on June 24 in Sacramento County Court. According to the lien, he owes state taxes for the years 2001-02 and 2004-07.

Ooops, lol. He better start making movies again or else.

I guess he learned nothing from Wesley Snipes.

What is up with these black celebrities not paying taxes? LOL. I don't hear about white celebrities that often not paying taxes. It's really a shame Chris Tucker's movie career started to suck after the first Rush Hour. I don't understand why he wasn't in the other Friday movies with Ice Cube because if he would've been in the last 2, he probably would've made a lot of money because blacks that are fans of the first Friday loved him in that. He needs to pay his damn taxes or else he'll be joining Wesley Snipes in prison hahahahahahahahahahaha. Wesley isn't in prison yet but he should be. He better make some more movies so he can pay the tax debt.

Maybe Chris should start selling t-shirts like Dustin Diamond.

I'm surprised Wesley Snipes and Chris Tucker didn't get nominated for Obama's cabinet. After all they have the most important qualification...they didn't pay their taxes!

Better pay the man.
