Ari Lennox admits she is in financial trouble and is willing to do “weird things” to get out of debt

Ari Lennox revealed to her fans during a recent discussion on Instagram Live that she is struggling financially and is deeply in debt to the IRS, joking that she has to do “weird things” to pay all the bills. “I'm just going to tell y'all my business,” she began. “I have to pay the IRS. The weird things I'm going to do for a change just so I can break even. I'm going to go crazy and then we'll start over.” From there, she said, her goal is to eventually retire after she pays off her debt and starts saving money.

Fans responded with their wit and said she should do a “diss album” with the IRS. “Absolutely not,” Lennox replied. “They were nice to me and they didn't take their time. So I'm not going to start a fight with them, we're not having a fight, I'm paying them back. OK? I'm paying them back and I'll catch up soon.”
