Forbes.com reports that the federal government is suing actress Robin Givens for $292,000 in "unpaid federal taxes, interest and penalties as far back as 1996." Givens is most famous for her one-year marriage to Mike Tyson and her role as one of the stars of the 80's sitcom "Head of the Class."
So, another celebrity failing to pay tax is hardly surprising. I wish the feds luck in narrowing the celebrity tax gap.
Here's the bigger question that came to mind when I read this story:
Does anyone else marvel at some of the predictable, corny, painful sitcoms that were successful in the 80's and 90's? I admit to watching many of them, but can claim youth as an excuse (as I haven't yet hit age 30). And don't get me wrong, I think there have been a lot of great series over the years. But so many make me stop and ask: "Really?"
Long live "The Office" and "30 Rock." And to "Seinfeld," "Cheers," and "Malcolm in the Middle," I miss you.
