Lindsay Lohan: Tax Evader?
We all know Lindsay Lohan looks good in redbut not this kind of red.
The starlet and newly minted Playboy pinup is on the hook with Uncle Sam for almost $100,000 in unpaid taxes, E! News has learned.
Per court documents, the Internal Revenue Service filed a notice of a Federal Tax Lien on Jan. 5 in California against Lohan, claiming she owes the government $93,701.57 in federal income taxes for 2009.
The lien was assessed against on the 25-year-old thesp's Encino home for the amount of the unpaid bill.
It's not the only legal headache for Lohan. Aside from fulfilling the obligations for what seems like her never-ending probation for a 2007 DUI and drug case, LiLo was also just slapped with a lawsuit by a paparazzo who claims he was hit two years ago by the car she was riding in when she tried to evade photographers after leaving a Hollywood nightclub.
When asked about the matter, Lohan's rep, Steve Honig, told E! yesterday: "We're not commenting on her personal financial situation."
That said, the reported six-figure payday Lindsay reportedly pulled down for last ! month's Playboy pictorial, not to mention a possible comeback role playing Elizabeth Taylor in a Lifetime TV movie, might come in handy right about now.
