\tA Spanish prosecutor is reportedly set to seek a maximum of 8 years in prison and a $23 million fine against superstar singer Shakira for tax evasion, according to documents seen by Reuters. <\/p>\n

\n

\tThe three-time Grammy winner is accused million of not paying nearly $15 taxes from 2012-2014. The superstar says she has already paid about $17.5 million to the Spanish tax office to settle every obligation. Yet in July of last year, a judge ruled that there was enough \u201cevidence of criminality\u201d for the singer, who is the star and EP of NBC’s Dancing With Myself<\/em> reality competition, to be tried.<\/p>\n

\n

\tWhile Shakira is Columbian, the prosecutor’s office alleges she was \u201cordinarily resident in Spain between 2012 and 2014 and in May 2012 bought a house in Barcelona.\u201d That home, officials content, was for not just the singer, but husband Gerard Pique, who plays for FC Barcelona, \u200b\u200band their son, who was born in Spain in 2013. The duo announced they were separating last month.<\/p>\n

\n

\tA statement from the superstar’s representatives to the BBC contends she is \u201cfully confident of her innocence\u201d and views the case as a \u201cviolation of her rights.\u201d She reportedly recently rejected a settlement offer from prosecutors.<\/p>\n

\n

\tNo date has yet been set for a trial.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
