THIS WEEK'S "IRS HALL OF SHAME" INDUCTEE: Willie Nelson


In 1990, Willie Nelson was hit with a bill for $16.7 million in

back taxes from the IRS. To help cover the tab, the IRS
confiscated and auctioned off the country music legend's assets. Fortunately for Nelson, many of the
items were bought by fans and given back to him. Nelson
later went on to poke fun of his tax troubles by appearing
in ads for H&R Block.
