Queen Without a Castle?
Filed under: Music Minute
Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin may lose her Detroit mansion to the taxman.
The property is worth $700K.
Franklin owes a total of $19,192 in back taxes on the property through 2007. That's not too much money. We hope she's liquid!
The Queen says she plans to pay up by a March 31 deadline. But, note, it was a $445 outstanding bill from the 2005 tax season that pushed the foreclosure proceedings.
What's the world coming to? Can't have the Queen lose her digs!
Thankfully (for him), Michael Jackson didn't lose Neverland.
If things get bad for Aretha, maybe Tina Turner will let Aretha crash at her castle in Europe.
Don't fuck with the IRS, y'all!

wow, she barely got her titties in that picture. and titties dont grow that big unless you are a good eater. maybe she should keep the hell out of the outback steak house and instead of buying big meals she should eat yogurts and stay home until she can see her feet again
THAT FAT BITCH DON'T FIT IN MY CASTLE,……LOOK HOW FAT AND DISGUSTING SHE IS,……..SHE CAN ALWAYS GO BACK HOME IN THE OCEAN WITH THEE OTHER WHALES
Maybe she should sell all her fucking furs.
English lesson:
Lose=to lose track of something, or to rid oneself of something
Loose=not tight, wiggly jiggly
As in, I hope Aretha can lose all that loose flesh.
Just sayin (I'm not perfect, but I know this one).
THAT IS THE FUCKING UGLIEST FUCKING BLOB OF SHIT I HAVE EVER SEEN SHE MAKES ME GAG
Re: uncle charlie – Whites shouldn't have to pay taxes. They had to look after all of the black slaves, and we owe them. We should be paying them tax. Kidding. Really. Ridiculous, ain't it?
She never pays her bills. She is constantly on the news in Detroit for stiffing EVERYONE from Limos to Restaurants……the woman never pays her bills.
what does she do? Eat 24-7? OMG A you look like you can eat Perez and everyone around you!!!! DIET FAT BITCH COW!!!! D I E T OR D I E
How can you buy a MANSION for $700k??
Always nice to see someone as full of themselves as Aretha Franklin get knocked down a peg or two.
But Perez, there ain't no way in hell that she'll ever go begging Tina Turner for a place to crash. I mean, Tina Turner's homes have STAIRS in them. How would the Queen of Soul manage?
NOW THAT IS UUUUGLY WITH A CAPITAL "U".
Just a factual note….which I'm sure you'll appreciate….
When you owe property taxes….you owe the city you live in…not the IRS!
Aretha lives in the very tony suburb of Bloomfield Hills, where $1,000,000 buys a ranch style house–'mansions'(whatever that means)are in the $5-$20 million ball park. I suspect the $700k is her taxable amount which is less than 1/2 the appraised value, especially low if she's owned it for many years(there is a cap on the per year increase, no matter the current real value). That said, Aretha is NOTORIOUS locally for not paying her bills–I know of many stores, contractors, etc. who have had to sue in order to get paid. A friend who works for Neiman Marcus had to explain to her that her store account had been closed for non payment when she came in to buy makeup. She was PISSED, but went to the credit office and paid it off. You would think she'd have 'people' who pay the bills–apparently not.
uh oh, the "queen" has lost her castle. from what i hear it looks like a big, nasty dump too
omg ARETHA! She desperately needs 2 go to the-digital-surgery.com even if it is only temporary. can't these celebs afford real lipo?!
The tax problem is with Aretha's house in the city–she's owned it for years, even though she 'lives' in her BFH home most of the time. Maybe the Detroit place gives her street cred?
I WONDER:
-HOW MANY TURDS COME OUT OF HER ASSHOLE EVERY 24 HOURS?
-ARE THEY SIMILAR IN SIZE/TEXTURE, OR DOES SHE DO SOLID TURDS MOSTLY, AND THE REST, BASICALLY DIAORRHEA?
-IS HER TOILET SEAT ENFORCED TO WITHSTAND THE CRUSHING WEIGHT OF THAT ASS?
-HOW MANY POUNDS/KILOS GO IN AND JUST HOW MANY COME OUT ON ANY GIVEN DAY?
-CONSIDERING HER SPHINCTER MIGHT BE RATHER ACTIVE AND STRONG, DOES SHE PREFER VAGINAL OR STRICTLY ANAL SEX AT THIS POINT, AND IF THE LATTER IS THE ANSWER, DOES HER ANUS AS A MULTIPLE FUNCTION ORGAN QUALIFY AS PERHAPS A KEY ELEMENT IN HER HAPPINESS QUOTA?
I WONDER, YES, I YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH WONDER
Its City of Detroit taxes that are owed on the home, not delinquint IRS taxes.
I love her but she needs to beat her stylist, makeup, and hairstylist with a stick…
Also, I'm a bit worried about her weight. She's always been a big lady but she seems to be closer to the top end than before. I worry that she may not be with us much longer…which would be a shame.
maybe she can earn some extra cash by posing in playboy
Ok,,,,Back Dis Shit Up! Does ANYBODY else wonder what is holdin dem Titties UP??? Them Spagetti straps MUST be made of bridge cable!! A fat woman THAT Size must have someone dressing her, and I pity the poor clueless fool that has to be standing in front of her when them straps come down and dem titties hit the floor……!

Re: i wonder, i yah, yah, yah wonder! – LMFAO! You made my morning with that hilarious post! I've often wondered myself, how do morbidly obese people take a dump. Is is HUGE? How does the toilet actually flush? How much comes out? Maybe I should email this fat bitch Aretha and ask so we can find out!
Fat disgusting old ugly cow….she needs to be put in a BARN!
Whatever Michigan…I lived there! It's all a shizhole!
Karma is a bitch ain't it you fat-fur-wearing over-rated cow!
Re: i wonder, i yah, yah, yah wonder! –
an older woman who has let herself go and gained alot of weight, and who has financial problems, continually refusing to pay her bills even when she has the money is probably DEPRESSED or otherwise troubled and probably doesn't have sex, anally OR vaginally.
$700,000 for a mansion ??? Geez is goes to show how the price of housing has fallen in Detroit - and her home is in a nice classy area northwest of Detroit - called Franklin …
