Charlie Sheen: Lohan Hasn’t Thanked Me for the Money

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Kind Acts,

Charlie Sheen is unhappy that Lindsay Lohan never thanked him for giving her a reported $100,000.

The Anger Management star generously helped out his Scary Movie 5 co-star when he heard she was having financial difficulties after not being paid for one of her projects but Charlie admitted he is unimpressed that the 26-year-old actress accepted money from him but didn't acknowledge it.

"She got shorted and I found out, so I said: 'Here.' I'm still waiting for a text to say 'Thank you.' Anything, you know?" he told Entertainment Tonight.

Meanwhile it has been revealed Lindsay is struggling to pay her rent and has been scraping together all the money she can in order to pay $8,000 per month for her Beverly Hills mansion in Los Angeles. Lindsay signed the contract for the luxury home in February, when it was believed her career was getting back on track and she was earning more money, but a source has revealed that once her finances hit trouble she resorted to calling on her friends to help pay her way.

Lindsay Lohan Selling Designer Clothes for Cash

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Clothing, Rumors,

Lindsay Lohan is reportedly selling her designer clothes.

The troubled 26-year-old actress has enlisted the help of her younger sister Ali to make some quick cash after her bank accounts were recently seized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), sending her 18-year-old sibling off to high end vintage clothing store Wasteland to flog some of her most valuable clothes, shoes and accessories.

The Liz & Dick star owed $233,904 in unpaid federal taxes in 2010 and despite being given $100,000 by her good friend Charlie Sheen, she still fell dramatically short of what she owed for 2011 and has now resorted to selling her personal effects to make up the sum.

Ali was seen arriving at the Los Angeles shop with several bags bursting with designer wares, but was shocked when the manager offered her a great deal less than she was expecting.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors,

Stephen Baldwin has been arrested over an alleged unpaid $350,000 tax bill.

The 46-year-old actor is accused of failing to pay income tax in Rockland County, 15 miles northwest of Manhattan, for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010 and was bailed pending a February 2013 court appearance.

Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe told the New York Daily News, "At a time when Rockland County and New York State face severe fiscal shortfalls, we cannot afford to allow wealthy residents to break the law by cheating on their taxes. The defendant's repetitive failure to file returns and pay taxes over a period of several years contributes to the sweeping cutbacks and closures in local government and in our schools."

The arrest comes six months after a court rejected born-again Christian Stephen's claim that he and a friend missed out on a lucrative contract with oil company BP thanks to Kevin Costner and his business partner in oil cleanup, Patrick Smith.

Charlie Sheen is allegedly helping Lindsay Lohan pay back her debts.

The former Two And A Half Men star reportedly sent the 26-year-old troubled actress a check for $100,000 to cover almost half of her hefty tax bill after they bonded while filming Scary Movie 5 together.

A source close to the Liz & Dick star told gossip website TMZ.com that she and Charlie became very close while filming the movie in September and talked about everything including her enormous debts. The 47-year-old father-of-five is said to have instantly offered to write her a check to help her out and she declined. But according to insiders, she was overjoyed when he sent the generous check directly to her business manager last week and immediately used it to pay off a huge chunk of her $233,904 tax bill.

Lindsay Lohan has resolved her lawsuit with a limo company. The Liz & Dick star has settled out of court with Elite Transportation Limo and Security Services, who were suing her for failing to pay her $90,585.79 bill from three years ago.

The 26-year-old troubled starlet - who still has other ongoing legal troubles and believes that Los Angeles police have a "vendetta" against her - has reportedly paid the limo company back the entire amount she owed after using their luxury services from February to May 2009, according to gossip website TMZ.com. The company is said to charge a hefty $6,000 an hour for its services.

News of the settlement comes after Lindsay pulled out of a planned interview with Barbara Walters this week. She was due to appear on 20/20 to talk about her new TV movie about Elizabeth Taylor, but with recent allegations of lying to police about a car accident in June and public spats with her parents, Lindsay's PR team decided it was best to cancel the interview.

Katie Holmes to Charge for Public Appearances?

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Child Stars, Rumors,

Cash-strapped Katie Holmes is considering charging for personal appearances.

The 33-year-old actress - who chose not to take a huge payout following the breakdown of her marriage to Tom Cruise - has been looking in to ways to make money since the split with paid for appearances just one option.

"People are putting the word out she's willing to do paid appearances and just seeing what opportunities come to her. Katie never did this before her split with Tom. Brands (want) Katie to wear their clothing for money, and then she'll get photographed in it," a source told The New York Daily News.

Katie will receive $400,000 per year in child support until hers and Tom's six-year-old daughter Suri turns 18 and the actor has also set up a "sizeable trust fund" for the youngster, which Katie won't be able to access. "Katie wanted the trust fund put in place for Suri so that their daughter will be able to tap into after she turns 18 years old. Katie has absolutely no access to the money and didn't want to. She just wanted to ensure that Suri would have financial security as she becomes an adult. It's a sizable trust fund, but Suri won't be able to fully legally claim it until she is in her 30s," a source said.

Brad Pitt says he'll never have money.

The Moneyball actor - whose combined wealth with his fiancee Angelina Jolie tops $270 million - thinks he will never have as much cash as he wants. Despite donating money to a string of international charities, he confessed it is impossible to sort global poverty - because there are too many homeless people in the world.

"Listen, it's never enough and it's a whole new set of problems, just with a different scale. I hit the Lottery so I think you need to pass that on," he said. The star - who is currently living in Surrey, England for work with Angelina and their six children - added, "You can't get to every beggar on the street because you end up with nothing in your pocket."

He and Angelina have given millions to good causes over the years through their Jolie-Pitt Foundation. Sometimes the couple and their kids do without store-bought Christmas presents to cut costs. "We try to keep the money spend to a minimum and miss manipulative TV ads. The rule is everyone's got to make something," he said at the time.

Tom Cruise will pay "more than $10 million" in child support to Katie Holmes.

The former couple - who announced they were to divorce after five years of marriage last month - have reached an undisclosed agreement to end their marriage, but insiders insist reports the actress is to receive a $50 million lump sum are "ridiculous."

However, the sources tell TMZ.com that Tom, 50, is paying "a lot of money" in child support for their six-year-old daughter Suri, with payments for the next 12 years amounting to "more than $10 million."

Katie, 33, has sole custody of Suri, but the Rock of Ages actor will have substantial visitation rights.

Speaking about their split, Scientologist Tom and Katie - who registered at a Catholic church in New York this week - released a statement saying, "We are committed to working together as parents to accomplish what is in our daughter Suri's best interests. We want to keep matters affecting our family private and express our respect for each other's commitment to each of our respective beliefs and support each other's roles as parents."
