Posted on Oct 27, 2010 @ 01:30PM
Lindsay Lohan has paid a steep personal price for her addictions and wild child ways - a stalled film career and tarnished reputation - but the financial price could also prove costly to the Mean Girls star, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
Earlier, reports surfaced that Lindsay's stint in rehab would cost $50,000 - but RadarOnline.com has found the cost will be much steeper.

A source with knowledge of the situation tells us: "The figure is much higher than that. Now that Judge (Elden) Fox has ordered her to stay at Betty Ford until January 3rd, it's going to end up costing her anywhere from $100,000- $150,000.
"Her medical insurance isn't covering this stint in rehab. Lindsay's bill will be most likely $125,000."

The source also tells us that Lindsay, 24, is very stressed about "how she is going to pay for it. She literally has no idea how she is going to come up with the money.
"Lindsay wants to get back to work, but her counselors are asking her to not rush back into work. There is absolutely no income coming in," the source says.

Betty Ford Center would have never admitted her if she was not capable of paying. She is trying to figure a way to get out. I think this is all an act right now. Lindsay misses her partying.

I am so tired of hearing about how Lindsay doesn't have any money. She had money to rent a Mazerati, to go party, & buy $$$ items. This is another example of her immaturity & self-absorbed feeling of entitlement, hoping someone will pay it for her.

Hold a garage sale.......... your handbags alone must be worth 100K. Lilo just doesn't want to spend her own money on rehab...... as usual, looking for someone else to pick up the tab!

Runs in the family...Mom wanted free ice cream...Lindsay wants free rehab.

I don't have $1,000 shoes, nor a swanky apartment; I cannot afford duck lips, extensions and buckets of cocaine. I would however, sell my home if I had to in order to save my child's life.
Cannot her mother and father help her?

why don't her two looser parents who screwed her up in the first place...take out a loan and pay it for her. It is about time they stoped exploiting and living off their child and acted like parents.

Call me crazy, but $150k doesn't sound like much considering who she is. I don't understand. And in all honesty, wouldn't you pay whatever it takes to save your life? Sounds kind of like an excuse to me.

Dina has made more money off her daughter. Pay up or go to jail and serve the sentence as Robert
Downey Jr paid his dues to get back into Hollywood. As Lindsay can't afford the Film Insurance she
may be getting another job anyway.

she's not trying to slither out of anything. the probation report was written before the hearing. she never said she wouldn't do the 90 days.
