Many celebrities work on projects that give them million-dollar paychecks, so why can’t they all hire good accountants? That’s what many people were wondering this week when they learned Lindsay Lohan is the latest celebrity to run into some IRS trouble.

Lohan reportedly received notice from the IRS that she owes almost $94,000 in unpaid income taxes from 2009. According to TMZ, the actress was unaware of the issue until recently.

Hopefully Lohan will take some of her recent Playboy paycheck to make things right with Uncle Sam and remember to file her taxes properly this year by the April 15 deadline. But let’s remember that the often-beleaguered actress doesn’t exactly have too many role models to look up to these days; her father, Michael Lohan, owed the government over $12,000 in unpaid taxes in 2010.

Of course, Lohan is also not the only celebrity scofflaw out there. In fact, stories about famous folk avoiding their taxes and getting into trouble seem to hit the news all too often.
