Commonly referred to as the world’s first supermodel, Janice Dickinson files for bankruptcy law protection to get out from under $1 million in debt.
The supermodel turned reality-star listed several unpaid debts, including $500,000 in taxes owed to the states of New York and California as well as the Internal Revenue Service over the course of a decade. She also reportedly owes $8,000 to a California medical center and an additional $8,000 to a celebrity dermatologist who completed a number of cosmetic procedures on the 58-year-old over the years.
In 2009, a lien was placed on Dickinson’s property in the amount of $33,514 for unpaid bills. She was hit with another $43,000 lien in 2012. Dickinson also faced an eviction lawsuit after defaulting on her $5,900 rent for a three-month period.
“I had some trouble, so yes, it is true,” she told Radar Online. “I am upset and taking every step to pay everyone back and I feel terrible about it.”
Dickinson is far from the only celebrity who has faced financial difficulties in recent years that prompted them to seek bankruptcy protection. Most recently, Grammy-award winner Dionne Warwick filed bankruptcy in a New Jersey court in March, citing tax debts of more than $10 million.
