Richard Simmons known for his, “Sweating to the Oldies” workout videos, and has been hiding out in his home for the past 5 years, has tax liens on his business and property for $24,000. The IRS claims that Simmons owes this money for years of back taxes between 2007-2015.
Simmons disappearance years ago prompted his friends to contact the LAPD to perform a welfare check. In 2013, the police did make contact with Simmons who said he simply wanted to take a break from public life. His status was such a mystery to some that there was a podcast series called, “Missing Richard Simmons” about his whereabouts.
