Nicolas Cage So Drunk He Forgot His Address
Nicholas Cage, 47, was arrested on Saturday in New Orleans. It was reported that he was so intoxicated he forgot where he lived. Cage allegedly pulled his wife, Alice Kim, by the arm to the home he thought was their rental. Kim was trying to explain that wasn’t their home. This is what caused an onlooker to call the police.
The police report reads, “The actor then began striking vehicles and later attempted to get into a taxi.” At that point, an officer who had been flagged down by onlookers drove up on the couple, immediately observed that Cage was heavily intoxicated and ordered him out of the cab, which prompted Cage to start yelling. “Why don’t you just arrest me?” The officers again told Cage to go home, and Cage allegedly dared them to arrest him again.
He was then detained on one count of disturbing the peace and one count on domestic abuse. Later, he was released on $11,000 bail.
Cage just keeps sinking further down with his already domestic battery charge and a $14 million tax bill-despite his $40 million salary last year.
Cage had six homes foreclosed on and four federal tax liens filed against his properties in three different states.
Nic Cage is Back
Nicolas Cage apparently owed the IRS more money then expected. Cage had a federal tax lien issued against him for $6.7 million in unpaid taxes for 2008. This is on top of the other 6 million he owed already for four other years in the past.
According to TMZ, Nicolas Cages total in unpaid taxes is over 13.3 million buckaroos. If you remember at all, Cage had a falling out with his former business manager, Sam Levin. The two are currently in a legal battle as to way Nic fell financially.
Nicolas Cage told TMZ, “I am under new business management and am happy to say that I am current for 2009. All taxes will be paid including any to be determined state taxes.” We gotta say, Cage has some serious money to be able to bounce back the way he has.
