Share
Who knew that a band mostly known for singing in a quasi-fictional language had over $6.5 million lying around - Vulture writes about Sigur Rós' tax evasion charges in an article where they listed artists over popular music’s history who have been nabbed for, accused of, or attempted to beat tax-evasion charges. The biggest here is Willie Nelson who allegedly owed 32 million dollars (and settled for 9), and among ladies the biggest alleged tax-avoider was Shakira with 16 million dollars (awaiting hearing).
