Val Kilmer Makes Like Wesley Snipes

Val Kilmer is apparently not a fan of paying taxes. Not that anyone is, but most of us still actually do it. The actor owes nearly $500,000 in federal taxes, according to reports. A lien has been placed on his property, including a New Mexico ranch he’s trying to sell. The IRS filed the lien in Santa Fe for an assessment balance of $498,165 for 2008 income taxes. Val is currently asking $18.5 million for the property. Wesley Snipes was recently sent to prison for tax evasion.
