Lohan was on the cover of the January-February 2012 issue of Playboy. While the move was deemed controversial, Lohan earned $1 million for the spot.

In August 2013, Lohan appeared with Oprah Winfrey on The Oprah Winfrey Show. While Winfrey is not known for paying her guests, for several interviews, Lohan earned $2 million.

However, Lohan’s success would begin to fizzle around the mid-2000s. Instead of making money and being the belle of Hollywood, Lohan began to spiral. And when this happened, her net worth began to tank.

How Lindsay Lohan Lost Her Fortune

In 2007, Lohan was targeted by the paparazzi who followed her and captured every drunken night she had spent at the nightclubs. The actress who was 21 years old at the time was later admitted to the hospital during the shooting of Georgia Rule.

“She was overheated and dehydrated,” Lohan’s publicist said at the time. But, eventually, the truth came out that Lohan was just unable to make it to set as a result of staying out too late and partying.

James G. Robinson, who is a studio executive, made a public statement about Lohan.

The statement read that Lohan was “irresponsible and unprofessional.” He also mentioned several other things like, “various late arrivals and absences from the set,” and, “we are well aware that your ongoing all-night heavy partying is the real reason for your so-called ‘exhaustion’.”

Lohan’s fame dropped rather drastically at that time and she was labeled as an insurance liability. It must have been so difficult for her and yet, she didn’t want to give up so soon.

Lohan was given small projects and had been cast in the TV series Ugly Betty (2006) as a minor role. Additionally, she hosted a documentary about human trafficking in India for BBC.

But just as everyone has their good sides and bad, people apparently have focused on Lohan’s bad side more often.

Being a woman of wealth at such an early age, she pampered herself by buying expensive cars, handbags, and designer clothes, and enjoyed meals at extravagant restaurants. Lohan even sometimes partied at three clubs in one single night.

Unfortunately, Lohan was also allegedly found using illicit drugs. In 2010, according to a Business Insider article, Hollyscoop reported on how much Lohan had spent on narcotics.

“There were reports a few days ago that Lohan was allegedly spending about $5,000 a week on drugs, but our ‘source’ insists that this figure is reportedly closer to about $3,500,” the article stated. “The last few months Lohan was allegedly ‘spotted’ narcotics because she’s in debt to the people who are supplying her, but no one’s really giving her a hard time because she’s Lindsay Lohan. The source added that Lohan is apparently in $30,000 debt for narcotics.”

The story doesn’t end there. Between 2007 and 2013, Lohan was arrested a few too many times for DUIs, altercations, shoplifting, and reckless driving.

In 2010, she was sentenced to 90 days in jail for not attending her court-ordered weekly education classes. Just as her appearances in court racked up, mugshots and rehab stints began to put her bank account into jeopardy.

Lindsay Lohan Has To Repay Her Debts

Lohan’s bank account was seized by the IRS to repay debts

Lohan had managed to rack up hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt over the years. While she was able to push back paying it off for a time, eventually, she was ordered to pay it all back.

The bills that Lohan reportedly had included:

  • $61,000 rehab bill
  • $40,000 to a Nevada tanning salon
  • $233,000 in unpaid federal back taxes
  • $90,000 in unpaid limousine fees

In the end, the IRS seized her bank account to recoup the funds.

Lohan’s net worth dropped dramatically from $30 million to $100,000. The money which she had earned on The Oprah Winfrey Show was used to pay back taxes, IRS debts, and rehab fees.

In October 2010, the 33-year-old star had an interview with Vanity Fair where she shared her tough times and financial issues.

“I was 18, 19–with a ton of money and no one really here to tell me that I couldn’t do certain things,” Lohan explained. “And I see where that’s gotten me now, and I don’t like it.”

Lohan went on to say, “I would look up to those girls…The Britneys and whatever, and I would like, ‘I want to be like that.'”

Lindsay Lohan Tried To Make A Comeback

In 2012, Lohan tried to make a comeback with Liz and Dick. Lohan salary was roughly $300,000.

Lohan would make guest appearances for several more years. Those appearances, according to IMDb include:

Eastbound & Down (TV Series)

It was around this time that it became clear to Lohan that Hollywood was not going to be lucrative. As such, in 2014, she moved to Dubai, where Lohan has resided since then.

Lindsay Lohan Made A Quiet Comeback in 2022

Lohan’s roles since her comeback have earned critical praise

However, after getting some time away from the glitz and glamour of Southern California, Lohan decided to start making a comeback. As such, in 2022, Lohan came back to the entertainment industry and has been working steadily since that time.

Those roles, according to IMDb include:

Mean Girls (Movie)

2024

Mathletes Moderator (supporting)

Falling For Christmas (Movie)

2022

Sierra Belmont (lead)

Lovestruck High (TV Series)

2022

Narrator (voice)

Additionally, Lohan has appeared in Rita Ora’s video, You Only Love Me and a commercial for Walmart’s Black Friday Deals.

Currently, Lohan has a project in post-production due out in 2024.

As a result of Lohan’s hard work, she has managed to turn her $300,000 net worth into a $2 million net worth.

Lohan has also become a wife and mother in the last several years. Given that her husband, Bader Shammas has a net worth of $100 million, Lohan does not have to work. But because she can now pick and choose projects rather than take them because she has to make ends meet, the projects can be higher quality and may just help Lohan build her career back to that which it was nearly two decades ago, should that be the direction Lohan wants to go in the future.
