Singer Lauryn Hill, 37, is to begin her three months jail sentence
for tax evasion but just before she was placed behing bars, she took
time out to write a letter on her blog
showing gratitude to her supporters including Alicia Keys, Stevie
Wonder and France Bunmi Olukoya, who wrote letters to the judge on her
behalf
The letter which was on Tumblr,
listed the names of 29 people from all over the world. “I want to
extend a sincere thank you to the following people, who wrote letters to
the judge on my behalf,” she said.
“I also want to thank all of my family, friends, business associates, and fans who have called, emailed, sent texts, and posted messages of concern, encouragement, and support.”
“I appreciate the well wishes, and I thank you for your prayers.”
