Columbian superstar Shakira has attracted the unwanted attention of a Spanish prosecutor who says that the "Latin Beyoncé" owes over 14.5 million euro in unpaid taxes.
Shakira could face eight years in prison for failing to pay taxes between 2012 and 2014. She insists that she did not live in Spain during that time, according to reports.

Spanish government is desperate taxing because they don't know how to grow earnings than European Union is asking for, what is happening to her, could happen to anyone easily in the future. Hacienda, the Spain tax office, is a corrupted legal organization. https://t.co/TCwtdl1mYA
