Mary J. Blige's financial woes have QUADRUPLED -- on top of the $900k she allegedly owes the Garden State, TMZ has learned MJB has been slapped with a $3.4 MILLION bill from Uncle Sam.
The IRS filed a federal tax lien against the Grammy winner, claiming she failed to pay all her income taxes for the years 2009 ($574,907.30), 2010 ($2,203,743.53) and 2011 ($647,604.60).
Tax bill grand total: $3,426,255.43. Translation: A LOT OF FREAKING MONEY.
Of course, the IRS needs to get in line ... the State of NJ says MJB still owes $901,769.65 in back taxes. Blige is being sued for allegedly defaulting on a $2.2 million bank loan and her charity is facing a lawsuit that claims it took out a $250k loan and never paid it back.
We reached out to Mary's team for comment -- so far nada. We also alerted them to TurboTax.
Kordell Stewart REAALLLY doesn't wanna see his estranged wife Porsha Williams anymore ... 'cause the ex-NFL star just changed the locks on the family home to keep her out ... this according to Porsha.
The "Real Housewives of ATL" star just filed new docs in her divorce war with Kordell ... and it appears the nasty split just got even NASTIER.
According to the docs, filed in family court in Georgia and obtained by TMZ, Porsha claims Kordell has locked her out of their residence on multiple occasions ... and she had to have her lawyer beg Kordell's people for a key.
Sources close to the situation tell us Kordell isn't playing ball -- and hasn't forked over a key.
But there's more ... according to the docs, Porsha tried to work things out with Kordell in a mediation session, but she claims he blew the whole thing off ... and called it a "waste of everyone's time."
Porsha wants a judge to force Kordell to either allow her to use the house ... or pay her enough cash so she can get a "suitable alternative residence."
Sources tell us Porsha is currently living with her mom in ATL -- guess she feels it's just not a "suitable residence" for a grown woman.
Mischa Barton came face-to-face with several police officers on Thursday ... when a fleet of squad cars rushed to her L.A. home in response to a report of a screaming woman on the actress' property, TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us, the 911 call reporting the screamer listed Mischa's address as the location of the disturbance ... so multiple cop cars raced to the scene.
We're told cops knocked on Mischa's door and the actress answered -- but there was no screaming woman to be seen (or heard).
According to sources, police determined they were given the wrong address ... and later found the woman in question further down the block.
We're told Mischa's dad was also home when cops showed up -- and he was PISSED, believing Mischa was the victim of some kind of "swatting" prank.
'90s comedian Sinbad claims he's broke as a joke ... again -- filing for bankruptcy for the second time since 2009.
Sinbad (real name David Adkins) filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy last month, claiming he owes $10,991,715 in debt ... and only has $131,000 in assets.
The 56-year-old comedian -- famous for his roles in '90s movies like "Houseguest" and "Jingle All the Way" -- says he owes $374,979 to American Express, $32,199 to Bank of America, and $2.3 million to the CA Franchise Tax Board.
He also claims he owes $8.3 million to the IRS for taxes from 1998-2006, and admits he owes both state and federal taxes from 2009-2012.
According to the bankruptcy docs, Sinbad earns only $16,000 per month and can't afford to pay his bills.
But the bright side, he's still got some possessions -- a 2007 BMW 750i, a 2006 VW Beetle, a 2010 Ford F150, a 2010 Lincoln Navigator, $5,000 in home office equipment ... and 200 copies of "Sinbad's Guide to Life" currently for sale on Amazon for $6.25 each.
Sinbad filed for bankruptcy once before in 2009, but the case was dismissed because he didn't file the right documents. Calls to Sinbad weren't returned.

Next on American Top 40 ... Casey Kasem's wife is gunning for revenge in a brand new lawsuit, titled, "You did a crap job painting my ginormous mansion and now I want my money back."
Jean Kasem filed a lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- claiming she hired New Life Custom Painting to work on parts of her 12,000-square-foot Cali mansion in 2012. Jean says she dropped major cash on the gig and the company gave her a 5-year warranty on the work.
Problem is, Jean says the work SUCKED ... was left incomplete ... and what was painted is already peeling.
In her suit, Jean claims her lawyers have reached out to the company to fix the problem or return the cash ... but NLCP has gone MIA.
Now, Jean is demanding more than $80,000 in damages.
FYI -- The house happens to be for sale. So if you've got $30 mil and don't mind a few (alleged) paint chips ... today's your lucky day.
"TheX Factor" is upping the sexy factor -- TMZ has learned Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio are signing on to be judges for next season.
Sources connected to FOX tell TMZ the pair are in final negotiations to join the show ... with only minor details left to be hammered out before they sign on.
We're told the deals will be done in the next few days, possibly as early as tomorrow.
Rowland and Rubio would be replacing Britney Spears and L.A. Reid ... and joining returning judges Demi Lovato and (of course) Simon Cowell.
Ellen Pearson -- the woman who was married to Robert Kardashian when he died -- claims the Kardashian kids don't have a leg to stand on in their lawsuit against her for selling portions of their father's diary to the tabloids ... TMZ has learned.
Kim, Khloe, Kourtney and Rob Jr. all banded together last month to sue Pearson for profiting off the diary ... a diary that contained a slew of juicy personal information.
The Kardashian kids claimed in their suit that the diary was left to them in Robert's will, but in her response filed earlier this week ... Pearson claims that just isn't the case and the diary is rightfully hers.
Pearson also shoots down the idea that she hid the diary from the Kardashians, but she does fully admit to selling it to the tabloids and owns up to the fact that she got paid for it.
In the end, Pearson claims the Kardashians have no case and is asking a judge to toss it out completely.
Robin Thicke wasn't really dressed for it, but ... a bunch of high schoolers let him stand in for a photo anyway ... ON PROM NIGHT!
It went down last Saturday ... the 20 or so students from Eagle Rock High in northeast L.A. were waiting for a party bus to take them to prom when one recognized Alan Thicke's hunky pop-singer spawn shooting a music video across the street.
They called the "Blurred Lines" (No. 1 on iTunes this week!) singer over ... and he was more than happy to chill and take photos.
"He made our night!," said a student named Jesse. "When my other friends told me about their party buses, they really had nothing to say… I mean, we had Robin Thicke!”
The teens say Thicke asked if anyone wanted to appear in his video the following day ... we're told some of them took him up on it.
Lisa Vanderpump's hubby Ken escaped the long arm of the law this week -- when he was pulled over by a cop in West Hollywood ... for something that probably WASN'T EVEN HIS FAULT!!!
Here's the deal -- sources tell us an eagle-eyed cop spotted Ken's fancy Bentley cruising down Santa Monica Blvd. at nighttime WITHOUT his headlights on.
But here's the rub ... we're told Ken had just picked up Lisa from their restaurant SUR ... and we're guessing that's where things went wrong.
WHY? Because he probably left the car with the valet ... and sometimes valets TURN OFF YOUR HEADLIGHTS (even if they're set to automatic) ... and it drives us frickin' CRAZY!!!!
Anywho ... Ken didn't get in trouble for the headlight issue, the cop let him drive off without a ticket.
We can't confirm the valet thing either ... but c'mon, you KNOW it's happened to you.
The Los Angeles Police Department is currently investigating death threats made against Chris Brown ... TMZ has learned.
According to our sources, multiple threats were called in to the office of Brown's attorney, Mark Geragos. We're told the caller threatened Chris' life ... but it's unclear what, if any, specific threats were made.
Our sources say Geragos took the threats very seriously and immediately reported them to the LAPD, giving them all the information he had on the calls.
We're told Geragos filled out a report and the LAPD are currently investigating.
If you've never seen the Verne Troyer sex tape, then you are about to watch the worst thing ever recorded ... Tanning Mom's music video.
As TMZ first reported, Patricia Krentcil inexplicably decided to record a pop song entitled "It's Tan Mom" ... figuring if Octomom did it, so could she.
Now TMZ has gotten our hands on the music video for the song ... and it's an absolute nightmare.
If you don't go blind in the first minute, be sure to watch around 2:00 mark ... when Krentcil just completely gives up on trying to sing along with the track.
"At least you're not Chad Johnson" might be something people say soon ... because on top of being a wanted man, TMZ has learned the former NFL star's finances are sinking faster than his career.
Chad filed new court docs as part of an ongoing battle with one of his baby mamas, Andrea Pearson, asking a judge to lower his $5,420 per month child support payments because he claims can't afford it.
In the docs, Chad says he agreed to that number back in March 2012, when he was a successful NFL star. He says he now "finds himself without a contract and without a team. Simply [I am] unemployed."
He also says, at such a late stage in his career, it is CERTAIN he will never make the kind of cash he once did.
As TMZ first reported, a warrant was issued for Chad's arrest on May for an alleged probation violation, also stemming from the domestic violence case.
