Ozzy and Sharon 'owe over �1m' in unpaid taxes

There's nothing less rock n' roll than a tax bill, but that hasn't stopped the King and Queen of heavy metal from having to pay them like the rest of us.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne reportedly owe a mouth-watering £1.19m in debt after being issued with a second lien in the space of a month.

Owch.
IRS documents filed this week in LA and later obtained by TMZ state that the pair currently owe $357,070.62 in unpaid federal income taxes dating back to the 2007 financial year.

The new figure comes after Ozzy and Sharon were issued with a first tax lien earlier this month seeking over $700,000 (£419,000) in unpaid taxes for 2008 and more than $1m (£598,000) for 2009.

Sharon's explanation at the time was that she 'didn't have time' to meet her accountant, though the former X Factor star insisted she took full responsibility for the debt.

"The bottom line is it stops with me, so I have to face up, be a big woman and realise I'm not Mrs Wonderful." she said.
