The girl from the Fugees? Yes, that Lauryn Hill; the one whose 1998 debut album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill sold more than 19m copies, won her five Grammy Awards and made her one of the biggest pop stars in the world.
Sure but that was for ever ago. What has she done since? All sorts. But musically, not a lot. Fans are still waiting for a second studio album. After 15 years? Yep.
Do you think it might be time for them to just give up? Actually, no. It’s the perfect time for them to start celebrating. Why? Because Hill has just been sentenced to three months in prison after pleading guilty to three counts of tax evasion.
And that’s good news for her fans? It’s great news for her fans. How exactly? Because she now owes the state of New Jersey a total of approximately $1m in unpaid taxes and fines.
