Okay, Swizz Beatz is officially the trashiest bastard I’ve written about in months! I hesitate to write this, but I think Swizz might even be trashier than Tiger Woods. Sure, Tiger was boning Ho Jo’s waitresses right and left, but he wasn’t getting them pregnant and then acting like he was too good to support his babies, you know? At least as far as we know, and believe me, those ladies have been talking. So Radar reports that Swizz owes “millions in unpaid taxes” over the course of seven years. SEVEN years. Damn. The numbers: 35 tax liens in seven years, $4 million in unpaid taxes in three states. Another number: four babies by four baby-mamas. Just throwing that one out there. Lord, I hope Alicia got a pre-nup with this bitch:

Alicia Keys’ new husband, hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz, owes millions in taxes, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Superstar songbird Keys – who just married Beatz in Corsica before celebrities like Bono and Queen Latifah – is expecting their first child in November.

RadarOnline.com has discovered that Beatz (real name Kasseem Dean) has run up a whopping 35 tax liens in the past seven years alone. Beatz, 33, racked up over $4 million in unpaid taxes in three different states between 2003 and 2010 and still owes around $2.4 million to the tax authorities. RadarOnline.com contacted the various authorities in each state Beatz has outstanding accounts with and they confirmed that the money is still owed.

Keys and Beatz have had to endure nasty comments from hiss ex-wife Mashonda Dean, who blasted the singer via Twitter. While Dean claims she was still married to Beatz when he started dating Keys, the truth is that their relationship was over and they were legally separated.

Beatz and Mashonda (who took him to Manhattan Supreme Court over $334,000 in unpaid child support payments for their son Kasseem Dean Jnr, 4) divorced in May 2009.

Recently, Mashonda and her ex-husband seem to have called a truce after she told VIBE magazine last month that he was up to date with his alimony and child support payments.
She also revealed that she had met with Keys to discuss how they should co-parent her son Kasseem and that she regretted sending her original Twitter message blasting the famous singer.

But the relationship between the two women remains frosty. She told Vibe: “We don’t talk. We don’t have any business talking unless it has something to do with my baby.”

Do you think Alicia is going to pay those bills? I bet she is. And that makes me sad. Alicia is a really pretty, really talented young woman, and I just think… damn, she must have some self-esteem problems if she thinks this is the best she can do. If she sees that Gonzo nose, the millions in back taxes, the three other baby-mamas and the child support and paternity drama, plus an ex-wife bashing her publicly, and Alicia thinks, “Oh, yes, this is worth it! It’s TRUE LOVE.” Maybe she’s just dumb. Sad.

Two more things about this story: I’m sorry I didn’t see this in a timely manner, but Swizz’s ex-wife Mashonda gave an extensive interview to Vibe Magazine last month, and she goes into detail about Swizz and Alicia and all of that drama. To read the Vibe piece, go here. Here’s a good quote: “When I wrote her that Twitter letter everybody wanted to say things like ‘Oh, what do you need to meet her for? It’s not her problem, it’s Swizz’s.” I’m like, ‘You have a kid, go through what I went through and then talk to me.’ I’m not having my son around anybody I don’t know. I don’t give a shit who you are and how much money you have and what management he’s going to be under when he visits you. I need to see you and I need you to see how serious I am about him. And that’s what happened. We had to sit down, and I told her how I felt. I didn’t mention anything else, it was all about my son and it was fine after that. I’m not going sit and talk to [them] about what happened between the three of us. This is about my son.”

Also: Jezebel ran a piece that originated on the Black Snob blog. It’s a piece called “Why the Media’s Not Talking About Alicia Keys’ Shady Husband” and it was written by Danielle Belton. It’s all about how the tabloid and mainstream media treats African-American celebrities differently than white celebrities, and uses Swizz’s drama as a case study. It’s an excellent, funny, fascinating read. The gist of it is that most tabloids, magazines and blogs don’t think this Swizz story will be interesting to their “mainstream” white audience, and that it wouldn’t be profitable to cover. I’m kind of strangely proud that we’ve done so much coverage of it, and that you, our gentle readers, have been all over it. Thanks for not being racist in how we call out dirtbags, y’all!
