Ohhhhhhh, I can't wait til he gets back on Twitter. I feel the rage coming. He just told us to pay our taxes on their AFTER he parted ways w/his business manager of 13 yrs. Said all we needed a good CPA and... again... to pay the taxes. Hmmmmmmmmmm....... Waiting by Twitter right now. (laughs)

Cut him some slack! You know that celebs rarely pay their own bills! Unfortunately, they leave these chores up to people who, often times, deceive them. We'll see......

I'm not mad at him as YOU know Tluv. The "I can feel the rage" line was HIS rage, not mine.(laughs) He gets kinda upset when ish is taken out of context, blown out of proportion. Been here over a year and I've seen it for sure.

Plus, he's already replied about it. ;)

The Detroit News is not the BIBLE! They aren't as bad as mediatakeout.com but, they can be wrong! What did he say?

I'll just say he's well aware of the "news" reports on it. ;)
