Celebrities are sometimes paid in very odd time increments, for things that require special attention from a tax payer’s perspective. The average worker gets a paycheck over regular intervals, and has the same withholdings every time. Celebrities, however, may receive their income in various amounts and ways throughout the year and in several formats. They receive royalties, advances, large lump sums, and even get paid to wear a specific designer, or attend a certain music festival. All of these different types of incomes must be reported, and must have taxes paid on them.
The various ways celebrities get paid may be why we see so many of them in trouble with the IRS. Not only are celebrities constantly in the public eye, their income taxes are usually so high, the penalties for not paying are much more serious than the penalties an average American would face.
