The man who hacked SCARLETT JOHANSSON nude pics got some PRISON TIME.

36-year-old Christopher Chaney was accused of hacking the accounts of dozens of celebrities, including MILA KUNIS and CHRISTINA AGUILERA.  He was looking at 121 years behind bars.  

But he cut a deal, and got 10.

Lilo made HOW much this year??

According to the HuffintonPost.com, LINDSAY LOHAN made $1.6 MILLION in 2012.

They counted up her major paychecks this year, and they include:

$1 million to pose for "Playboy"

$200,000 for her brief appearance in "Scary Movie 5"

$300,000 for the Lifetime movie "Liz & Dick"

$6,480 to star in that indie flick "The Canyons"

$100,000 loan from CHARLIE SHEEN.

Add those up and it comes to a little more than $1.6 million.

But they also added up the DEBT Lindsay racked up this year:

$234,000 in unpaid taxes from 2009 and 2010

$96,000 in yearly rent for her mansion

$144,000 in yearly rent on that storage locker she can't afford to pay for anymore

$40,000 she loaned to her mother so she wouldn't lose her house.  

All told, that's $514,000.

Which means that Lindsay ends the year UP almost $1.1 million.  Even if you subtract for taxes . . . assuming Lindsay is paying those now . . . that's more than HALF A MILLION BUCKS.  Where did it go???

Obviously, we can't answer that.  But a good chunk of it may have gone to LEGAL FEES.  The Huffington Post estimates her legal bill this year may have been AT LEAST $250,000.
