Martha Stewart


Most people remember when Martha Stewart went to jail, but few may remember the domestic diva's earlier run-in with the law. In 1994, Stewart disputed a state tax bill, claiming she hadn't spent enough time at her East Hampton, N.Y., home to warrant paying taxes. New York State disagreed, and in 2002 she was ordered to pony up $220,000. Nice try though, Martha!
