Like the dreaded
vuvuzelas blasting through his first campaign ad, Wyclef Jean's transition from beloved ex-Fugee to would-be Haitian politician sounded a sour note from the start. And that was before the really gnarly news started leaking: Wyclef
owes millions to the IRS; Wyclef
paid his mistress to run his charity; and, most disgusting of all, Wyclef used Yéle Haiti, his foundation,
to pad his own pockets. By the time he was ruled ineligible to run for president, 'clef had lost a lot more than his political career. That's not a vuvuzela, pal, it's the sound of a reputation gone to mush.
