Marc Anthony to pay millions to US government
J.Lo's husband owes years of unpaid taxes
Marc Anthony, the world’s biggest selling salsa-artist of all time, is set to fork out $2.5m in unpaid taxes after his accountant and manager (who is also his brother) failed to file his tax returns for four years.
Anthony’s brother/manager Bigram Zayes and business manager/accountant Philip Sarna are responsible for the financial running of Anthony’s three companies, and pleaded guilty to tax crimes and will be sentenced in June. Both men failed to file their own personal taxes as well as the taxes due from Anthony’s companies.
According to reports, Anthony who is married to Jennifer Lopez, will not be charged with a crime as he relies on his accountant to file his returns.
