Lil Kim Publicist Responds To Tax Debt Story

Published: Saturday 4th Feb 2012 by Sam

Drama.

It’s a word which seems to encase rapper Lil Kim at every look and turn. And today is no different.

This AM, TMZ ran a story detailing the pint sized star’s comparatively mammoth tax debts. A story the 37 year old’s team have shed further light on.

Find out what a rep from  Queen Bee’s camp have to say after the jump…

Alleged publicist for the rapper, CJ, emailed media outlets the following:

“It is a known fact that for some time TMZ has been running stories on celebrities or well known persons of interest and providing the general public and media with publicly accessible information on random celebrities and their private matters with the internal revenue service,this does not come as a surprise, as it is Tax Season and is a sell-able media opportunity,it is for no other reason that Kimberly Jones(aka: LIL KIM) is now the target of such random media scrutiny.As it pertains to the story that was ran onTMZ(February 4,2012)regarding Lil Kim, we would like to inform fans,media, and the general public,that LIL KIM has hired professional attorneys to handle this matter(embellished by all standards via the media), and that she,along with her team of legal experts are working cooperatively and diligently with the I.R.S and federal authorities to amicably resolve the situation.

————————-

Meh. I’m more concerned with the atrocious grammar and punctuation. It seems Ms. Jones has been too busy partying and recording material no one ever hears to screen those “representing” her.

Being the supporters we are of ol’ Kimmy, we just hope she gets her act together and gives us the true follow-up to ‘The Naked Truth’ we’ve been waiting on.

Your thoughts?

    Props to her publicist she responds with a statement the moment a story pops up. If only Kim had that work ethic haha.

  2. areuserious February 4, 2012

    It’s starting to look like this site has a vendetta against Lil’ Kim which makes no sense. Is someone paying you to bash her like this? This site has turned into s*** I don’t see how anyone could support this site.

  3. The Naked Truth February 4, 2012

    This site is S***!!!!!

  4. The Naked Truth February 4, 2012

    And y’all have the NERVE!!!!! To talk about someone’s grammar?

    Lord, 2012 is the end of times!

  5. sam February 4, 2012

  6. Jessica February 4, 2012

    Is it about her music or her personal life?? This is disgusting!! Look Lil Kim is a better female rapper than crap Nicki, get over it TGJ!! That track with Madonna sucked balls and Stupid H** was garbage, that goes to shows that Nicki career is in the toilet point blank!! First you write about her ghost writing and now about her money? This is pathetic and despite to make crap chicken head Nicki to look good please, I yet to see Nicki have a lyrical battle by herself without her Young Money Goons of a rappers!!! You know damn ass well Kim ripped apart Nicki on the Black Friday track, just admit it. Look TGJ mind your biz and get off Kim’s ass because you know damn ass well Nicki is crap garbage!!

  7. MAMA BEAR February 4, 2012

    Well thankfully. Because that s*** is embarrassing.

    Btw TGJ dissing someone else’s grammar o_0

    I mean, Y’all ain’t saints or anything, I’ve seen some atrocious grammar by the staff on some posts.

  8. Xaviera February 4, 2012

    Who’s her publicist? Waka Flocka Flame?

  9. voneeluv February 4, 2012

    aww poor lil Kim fans 🙁 Tha grape juice is not hating they are just posting the same TMZ story on Kim as many other sites will do by monday. Sry your hurt by the reality of her taxation problems. But don’t hate on the grape juice for posting a credible story. If the story was not true Kim’s PR person would not have responded so quickly. Notice it didn’t state that the reports were false just that Kim’s legal team is working on the tax problems. Funny how these artists come out talking they rich, they been in the game this long they paper is stacked but can’t even pay their taxes from years back until now. hope this not another Wesley Snipes situation!

  10. Marbles February 4, 2012

  13. Lea February 4, 2012

    All publicity is good publicity.All this is going to do is add more to her record sales.

  14. Tiffany February 4, 2012

    Wow Sam you couldn’t wait to post this up.You still didn’t post Nicki assaulting her maid.

  15. Bryant Del Rey February 4, 2012

    “Hang it up, flat screen!”

  16. voneeluv February 4, 2012

    Me thinks this is why Madame Kim is going hard at these female rappers trying to get her paper up, build interest in her career so labels want to make a deal and shows want to book her. It would be better for her to join forces than to divide an fail to concur. Perhaps Kim should hold off on the plastic surgeries and expensive labels.
    Kim is giving to much ammunition to the competition. Bet Nicki is ready to but this info into a new song right now.

  17. WAR-TOM February 4, 2012

    I was totally going to bring up the grammar too. Like seriously? It looked like an 8th grader’s writing!

  18. Tammy February 4, 2012

    This is a lie.If Lil Kim didn’t pay her taxes in 10 years she would be in jail,just like Ja Rule and Wesley snipes.A Nicki fan started this rumor.

  19. tyra February 4, 2012

  23. YOOSONDALOOSE February 4, 2012

    So done with this yesterday.

  24. HaterzStayPressed February 4, 2012

    She needs to fix that soon. Now that it is public the IRS will be coming after her. She has been lucky, The IRS lets a lot of people fall thru the cracks. It took years before they got Wesley Snipes. A million dollars…somebody in her camp had to snitch. This is some prison level s*** if its true. This is why I get on Kim. Everytime she gets close to success she f**** up. Its not fair to the people who love her or the fans who support her. This is just sad.

  25. BAA February 4, 2012

    I see people now want to bring Wesley Snipes n this but i was told by a Delusional Nicki fan, that TGJ only talks about music artists. Last time i checked Jermaine Dupri and Ron Isley were musicians and TGJ didnt smear their tax problems around. We all know why this pissy site did this, its because K.I.M SHITS ON little miss Nicki. The bish isnt on K.I.M’s Level at all, i dont give a damn how many lame ass pop hits she get. Why dont u dumb ass Nicki fans suck some d****, like how H** ass Nicki became relevant.

  26. Kingphoenix February 4, 2012

    TGJ yall are so wrong for that picture, that was more shocking than the article!

  27. nicoyuki February 4, 2012

    This site is for the dogs you guys talk mad s*** about artist you don’t like when you should be given your favs post tell me this one thing when all of those crazy stories come out about Nicki why do we never see them like the maid thing or the nail lady or when sb bust that ho in the face with a suitcase this site is for bird bishs

  28. Ewww February 4, 2012

    Um is anybody going to say something about that ugly ass picture of kim? That makeup is a no no. Anyway who cares about this kim and nicki beef, they both are great.

  29. jenna February 4, 2012

    Anyone else find it weird this is a supposed music blog but they post these kind of stories only about KIM

  30. RHI RHI IS QUEEN February 4, 2012

    MAYBE KIM SHOULD ASK NICKI FOR A LOAN SO DA B**** CAN PAY HER DAMN TAXES… JUS SAYIN

  31. Texas Cowgirl February 4, 2012

    Kim been said that she owe the IRS when she was doing Dancing with The Stars. The bad thing is that she don’t have new money coming in by the barrel. It looks unlikely to change. The general public don’t have any interest in her or her music. I know her diehard fans go hard for her but that is not enough.

  32. kayla February 4, 2012

    Damn..it looks like lil Kim fanz is pissed because kim is always doin’ s*** to be put on the spot but aint been in the spotlight since bush was bush was relected as president…lol *tunes in too watch nicki minaj at the superbowl*

  33. kayla February 4, 2012

    Damn..it looks like lil Kim fanz is pissed because kim is always doin’ s*** to be put on the spot but aint been in the spotlight since bush was bush was relected as president…lol *tunes in too watch nicki minaj at the superbowl* ha

  34. bitter February 4, 2012

    What does Nicki had to do with this Ummmmm I’m pretty sure that the story I’d true… nicki money is nicki money and kim is kim dang let it go the stans are really getting out of pockect with this beef uggh get ur own f****** life thanks

  35. haterzstaypressed February 4, 2012

    Instead of supporting a woman beater and putting off her EP, and wearing those expensive clothing and rocking a 25k Birkin Bag, why don’t she pay her taxes? She thinks she’s above the law and time and time again she gets nailed. When will Kimberly Jones grow up? How are you going to come for other rappers when your ass owes a milli to the IRS? Wasn’t she a federal inmate at one point? And if so, isn’t she on parole/probation or whatever? Does she not understand that this could be a violation of her parole/probation?

    AND AND AND

    Why are Kim fans bringing up Nicki in all this? Nicki is working, paying taxes, investing her money into other money making opportunities, touring, having major chart success and receiving accolades from her peers. Kim/ Not so much. You Kim stans should worry about Kim and not Nicki, since Nicki is doing her thing and KIM IS NOT. Stop being pressed! Come at me if you wanna but know that I only speaketh the truth. You will deal. 😆

  36. Arielhoward26 February 4, 2012

    Ewww lil Kim looks hideous in that picture I almost thought it was Halloween again.
    Anyways she need to gone head n pay her taxes n put out her music like she promised. Maybe if her music sells it can help her or back to jail she will go.

  37. d-rock February 4, 2012

    @HATERZSTAYPRESSED…. FIRST AND FOREMOST, WHENEVER SOMETHING IS PRINTED ON THIS SITE OR ANY OTHER SITE WHETHER IT BE GOOD OR BAD NICKI FANS FLOCK IN THE COMMENTS BEING DISRESPECTFUL LIKE SO BY THE BUNDELS. AND THE SAME THING WITH KIM FANS. BOTH FAN BASES DO THE SAME THING YAP ABOU THE OPPOSITE SIDE. THE PROBELM THAT GRAPEJUICE HAS WITH LIL KIM IS SOMETHING DEEP ROOTED. AND YOU CAN HONESTLY SEE IT. WE DONT KNOW IF IT’S COMING FROM THE FACT THAT DEEP DOWN THEY ARE ANTICIPATING NEW MOVES FOR KIM SO THEY ARE TRYING TO LIGHT FIRE UNDER HER , IF THEY ARE TRYING TO LURE LIL KIM FANS TO THE SITE BECAUSE THEY KNOW NICKI & KIM FANS ALIKE WILL POST ON THE TOPIC CONCERNING KIM, OR IF THEY JUST REALLY ON THE LOW ADMIRE LIL KIM BUT ARE FRONTING AS IF THEY DONT TO FANS OF THEIR BLOG. FORGET THE STAN WARS. ALL THAT ASIDE YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE HOW THEY CONSISTENTLY TARGET LIL KIM AND THEN REPORT MOSTLY NEGATIVE PRESS ABOUT HER. EVEN WHEN THEY SPEAK ON THE GOOD THINGS THEY WILL TRY TO THROW SOME UNDER HAND COMMENT AT THE END OF THE ARTICLE. JUST LIKE WITH THE TAX SITUATION, THEY POSTED A PIC OF NICKI TO CREATE THE BACK AND FORTH ARGUING FROM BOTH SIDES. LIL KIM HAS BEEN VERY QUIET AS OF LATE ABOUT ALOT OF THINGS AND HAS NOT SAID A WORD LATELY. GRAPEJUICE WILL TARGET NOT ONLY LIL KIM BUT HER CAMP ALSO IF NEED BE. ITS SOME KIND OF VENDETTA THEY HAVE WITH HER. BUT WHAT’S FUNNY ABOUT ALL THIS IS DURING THE BLACK FRIDAY ERA THEY WERE ONE OF THE FIRST ONES TO ASK FOR AN ITERVIEW FROM LIL KIM. THE EDITORS OF BLOG JUICE CLEARLY HAVE SOME ISSUES WITHIN THEMSELVES TO ATTACK ONE PERSON NONE STOP. WITH ALL THE CELEBS NEGATIVE & POSITIVE PRESS OVER THE COURSE OF 2 YEARS THEY COULD CHOOSE FROM THEY CHOOSE TO SHED THE SPOTLIGHT WOMAN. AT THE END OF DAY ALL B.S ASIDE LIL KIM IS A HUMAN BEING JUST LIKE ALL OF US.

  38. nicoyuki February 4, 2012

    Kim doesn’t even talk or bring up Nicki its been how long since Kim has spoke of her but Nicki needs Kim attention to keep her career afloat because after all she is the biggest Kim stan in history the proof is in ever video photoshot interview lyrics and ever deal she makes it all has a trace of Kimberley Jones

  39. haterzstaypressed February 4, 2012

    @D-ROCK I must admit that I have noticed TGJ targets Lil’ Kim, as they target Rihanna and I suspect the reason why is because Lil’ Kim’s fans will flock to the site in order to defend Kim and/or shade Nicki. It drives up hits and skyrockets the Alexa ratings for the site. I was a former blog owner so I know the ins and outs of the game when it comes to hits, ratings, google adsense and adwords, and advertising. So you can’t really blame the blog owners for generating income and business. Kim does the same thing by putting out diss records and interviews, and Nicki does the very same thing when she engages the back and forth.

    It’s a numbers game and the fans are the commodity. At the end of the day, we are the numbers that round out the bottom line. It’s a feeding chain.

    Yes, there are times that the shade against Kim is uncalled for and I can admit that. But it’s his blog and he can do whatever he wants.

  40. QueenOfTheHive February 4, 2012

    malibu barbie, i really thought you were smarter than that.

    How can someone’s money be long but owes 1 million dollars in taxes, dating back from 2002. Surely, if the person’s money was that long they would have paid it off as soon they became aware they owed money.

    Fact of the matter is this, Kim isnt long sighted and was too busy focused on street cred when she should have been worrying about how she was going to expand her horizons.

    This is a lesson we all can learn from, get your money right!

  41. Itsme2002 February 4, 2012

    Damn Lil Kim get mentioned on this site EVERYDAY…you all dig DEEP to find stories…and everything u find is false…

    This is is worse than MediaTakout.com….

  42. TRICKA February 4, 2012

    @QUEENOFTHEHIVE

    Money can be long. It’s called being stingy my dear. She hasn’t paid since 2002?? But in 2003 didn’t she release a platinum selling album and Billboard hits? I think she is stingy or just doesn’t take proper responsibility.

    She’s broke but can afford all latest labels products? Nah, her ass worth mills, b**** is stingy

    KIMBERLY, PAY UP!

  43. Keisha February 4, 2012

    @QUEENOFTHEHIVE There is a lot of rich people who get in trouble cause they didn’t pay there taxes.Just because you didn’t pay your taxes don’t mean your broke it just means you were negligent.The fact she she owe 1 million dollars in taxes, which I don’t believe considering they would of been lock her up,proves she made well over that much.Which means she have money.

  44. :l February 4, 2012

    normaly i would say to sam to leave kim alone,even though i don’t mess with kim like that,but not this time this time i agree with him,because kim shows off all the time like she is balling like that[only on cam] when she is broke,people talking about kim is just being stingy no she isn’t she is actually broke,she was the same one who dis nicki minaj talking about the house nicki bought her mother she payed the same price for her van in 95[the b/tch is stock in the pass] kim is broke for sometimes now remember they repoed her sh/t back in the day,because she is broke she bin making some moves that is bellow the level she supposed to be,on another not way the fck she don’t address her fans why is this pub talking for her,she is busy supporting mayweather are other socalled important things i guess,she don’t talk to fans no more kim is pulling a eminem it seems,and some of you stupid fans stop blaming nicki minaj for this,nicki isn’t responsible for kims fckups kim do kim.
