Though Lohan's steamy Playboy spread hit newsstands in December 2011, she was paid for the photos in 2012 - to the tune of a cool $1 million. She'll also bolster her assets with a $300,000 paycheck for the Elizabeth Taylor biopic "Liz and Dick" and the $200,000 she will receive when she officially signs on to "Scary Movie 5."

Lohan saw a smaller windfall of $6,480 after working for scale in the recently-wrapped film "The Canyons," Written by author Bret Easton Ellis, the film chronicles sex and ambition in Los Angeles and co-stars porn star James Deen and director Gus Van Sant.

To top off her earnings so far this year, Lohan receives between $2,000 and $10,000 for Twitter endorsements of several companies.

The red-haired star has led a considerably smooth professional existence in 2012, but the last few months haven't been free of the outbursts that made her a tabloid fixture.

Just last week Lohan made news for allegedly crashing the birthday party of Francesca Eastwood, daughter of Clint Eastwood and star of E!'s "Mrs. Eastwood & Company."

"Francesca was celebrating her birthday with around a dozen friends in a private area when Lindsay came over and started screaming that Francesca should leave," a source told Us Weekly. "She was yelling, 'I'm a star, she's a nobody, get her out of here!'"

Security reportedly asked Lohan to leave shortly after the outburst.
