Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan became close on the set of Scary Movie 5, in which they both make cameos - so close that, apparently, Sheen cut Lohan a $100,000 check to help her pay off the $233,904 she owes in unpaid taxes from 2009 and 2010. 

According to the TMZ, the two - who have both had stints in rehab and messy family histories - bonded both on and off set during their cameos for Scary Movie 5, and "talked about everything." Lohan mentioned her tax problems and Sheen offered to cut her a check for $100,000 right there, but she refused. Apparently not one to take no for an answer, Sheen sent a check for that amount anyway, which Lohan's manager received last week. 

Lohan, reportedly blown away by the gesture, immediately put the money towards her tax bill. As shes expected to make about $2 million this year, it should be no problem for her to pay off the rest of the bill, the amount of which is now at about $133,904. Never say Charlie Sheen isn't a nice guy!
