AUGUST 28--
The gentlemen from 'N Sync have been called everything from no-talents to tone deaf, but the city fathers in Columbus, Ohio have a new name for the group: deadbeats. According to representatives with the Columbus Division of Income Tax, the band has stiffed the city on a four-figure tax bill stemming from concerts the group performed in 2000 and 2001. Seems that entertainers and athletes are hit with a small levy on income earned in Columbus--and the city actually expects the tax to be paid. But when 'N Sync did not come up with the cash--and ignored eight subsequent deficiency notices--the city filed two Municipal Court lawsuits against the group seeking overdue taxes and penalty fees. When those actions were also ignored, the city recently secured default judgments in the Franklin County courthouse. Along with naming 'N Sync's corporate entity, Zeeks, Inc., the Columbus officials also listed Justin Timberlake, J.C. Chasez, Lance Bass, and Joey Fatone as individual debtors (the boy band's fifth member, Chris Kirkpatrick, apparently paid his taxes in a timely fashion). While the judgments sought $8314, the city last week lowered that figure to $4254 after discussions with the group's business manager. While the four grand won't help much with the city's gaping budget deficit, 'N Sync finally forked over the dough yesterday, according to a Columbus spokesman. From here.
Damn you, Chris. Fucking show off. ;)
CHASEZ IS QUITE THE SLEEPYHEAD
Seems 'NSyncs JC Chasez may have enough of a good thing-i.e.beautiful girls who just can't get enough of him, US Weekly reports.
After a night spent flirting at L.A. nightclub The Concorde on Aug. 21, Chasez, 27, and two of his guy friends invited a dozen or so gorgeous ladies back to his Hollywood Hills home for an after party.
"They picked out the hottest girls and asked if they wanted to hang out with Jc," one of the invited females said. "When we got there, he lit candles and put on sexy music."
But don't get the wrong idea. According to the source, even though Chasez had spent hours sitting "really close" with a "Britney Spears look-alike", at 3;30 a.m., Chasez surprised everyone by being a party pooper.
"He headed upstairs alone and went to bed," the souce says. "We all thought we'd been invited to a sex party, and he just wanted to go to sleep!" From Orange County Register
Did I mention I love my husband? He really musn't like women because that'd be temptation for any man who did. Even the slightest bit.
