With so many things going on in the out-of-control life that is Lindsay Lohan, you, like me, may have missed the fact that LiLo owes over two-hundred thousand dollars [almost $234,000 to be exact, but who's counting?] in Federal taxes. Well, that was before a celebrity friend paid $100, 000 of it last week! Who's Lindsay's friend? You'll never guess...

[Then again, if you check out the photo above, you probably have a pretty good idea] According to TMZ.com, Lohan's hero is none other than Charlie Sheen. You're thinking, "There must be a story here, right?" Of course...

Lohan and Sheen met back in September, while filming Scary Movie Five. They reportedly hit it off, and spent time talking, on- and off-set.When Lindsay told Charlie about the tax problem, he offered to write a check to settle the bill. Lohan refused.

Then last week, Lohan's business manager got the $100,000 check from Sheen. TMZ.com says LiLo was overwhelmed by Sheen's gift, and immediately sent it to the Feds.

Is $100,000 enough to settle Lohan's shortfall with the IRS? Well, the Government has taken less than the full amount owed to close a case. And even if they don't, Sheen's gift has put a major dent in Lindsay's debt.
