It seems like Montel Williams has a lot more to talk about other than war stories from his long running talk show.

The TV personality and former talk show host has been slammed with a $1 million tax lien. Montel Williams’ tax bill is related to his 2008 and 2009 individual tax returns, the Smoking Gun reports. Montel Williams’ tax lien, which was filed by the IRS in New York, shows that Montel Williams and his wife Tara owe $1,039,609.41 over those two years.

Perhaps the most galling thing about Montel Williams’ tax situation is that he was recently under fire for promoting Money Mutual, a payday lender, WalletPop.com reports. The television personality was criticized for promoting high interest loans that target minorities. Many critics called the company predatory because it charged consumers completely unfair, usurious rates.
