LiLo nearly broke, struggling to pay rent: report

Looks like Lindsay Lohan’s financial situation has gotten a lot worse.

With her bank accounts seized by the IRS, the troubled actress has been struggling to meet the $8,000 monthly rent for her Beverly Hills mansion, TMZ reports.

Insiders told the gossip stie that when she signed the lease last February, things were looking up for her financially.

However, when LiLo’s situation took a turn for the worse, she was then forced to rely on her friends for cash in order to make the monthly bill.

The “Liz & Dick” star allegedly tried to break her lease and move out early but was warned by her landlord that she would be heavily penalized.

Lohan has the lease until Feb. 2013, so she might be begging her friends for awhile.

Earlier this year, the IRS slapped two liens on Lohan, of $140,203 and $93,701, for unpaid taxes in 2009 and 2010. And she’s also on the hook for unpaid 2011 taxes.

A source close to Lohan told Page Six, “Lindsay is freaking out. And she’s doing what she always does, which is to say it’s not her fault and point the finger at someone else in her team. She says she didn’t know anything about it . . . she’s broke and it’s not her fault.”

Charlie Sheen gave her $100,000 to help cover the mounting debts. But another friend adds, “Lindsay is a disaster with money. But she’s a hustler and always finds somebody at the last minute to bail her out.”
