Another "Empire" star is facing legal trouble.
The Blast reported that Terrence Howard, who plays Lucious Lyon on the Fox drama, is under investigation for criminal tax evasion, according to court documents.
The tabloid site reported that the documents it obtained show that the United States Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania is looking into possible financial crimes Howard and his third wife, Miranda Pak, committed, as well as Universal Bridges Inc., a company owned by Pak.
Howard, 50, and Pak divorced in 2015 but got engaged again in December.

"Our office can neither confirm or deny the existence of an investigation," a spokesperson for the United States Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania told People in a statement.
If true, this is the latest in a series of tax issues for Howard, according to The Blast.
In 2006, he got hit with a $600,000 tax lien. In 2010, he got a $1.1 million tax lien.
The Blast reported in April that Howard got hit with a tax lien by the State of California Franchise Tax Board for $143,538.61.
