Puerto Rican megastar Marc Antony owes $1.8 million in back taxes, RadarOnline is reporting.

New York authorities earlier this year filed a demand for millions in back taxes against the husband of Jennifer Lopez, the website reported. Three months earlier, authorities filed a $1.6 federal tax lien against the millionaire megastar on a property in Nassau County, Long Island.

The website said it was unclear whether the “I Need to Know” singer has settled the $3.4 million debt, but his rep told reporters he had reached a deal with authorities.

But it’s not the first time the singer has gotten into trouble over failing to pay his taxes. In 2007, after years of not paying his taxes, Marc Anthony was ordered to $2.5 million in back taxes, the website reported. Back then, the singer blamed his business management company. His financial team later pled guilty to tax evasion.
