Don't get too excited... Lindsay has been sent to a morgue as part of her punishment for a drink-driving offence.

The 21-year-old star has also spent two months in rehabilitation and done some community service, her lawyer Blair Berk said at a hearing in Los Angeles on her progress toward fulfilling the terms of her plea bargain.

Her two four-hour days at the morgue are part of a court-ordered programme to show drivers the real-life consequences of drinking and driving.

She must also spend two days working in a hospital accident and emergency department.
