LOS ANGELES (KTLA) -- Lindsay Lohan arrived early for her community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue Friday, one day after her tardiness forced her to be considered a no-show.
Lohan arrived well ahead of the 7 a.m. call time Friday and snuck in through a back entrance. Coroner's spokesman Ed Winter said she arrived "extremely early."
Winter also said she was allowed to enter through a private door out of respect for families of the deceased, due to the media presence.
A day earlier, the troubled actress was scheduled to show up at 8 a.m. but was about 40 minutes late, TMZ reported.
Coroner's officials considered Lohan a no-show for the day.
Lohan's publicist told TMZ that the actress was late due in part to "a combination of not knowing what entrance to go through and confusion caused by the media waiting for her arrival."
On her Twitter page, Lohan offered the following explanation: "With all of the stress and pressure from yesterday and today, I've never been so happy to go to therapy!!!! Also, I'm sorry for the confusion that I may of (sic) caused to those at the Coroner's office. Won't happen again, now I know where to go! Thank you for your help."
Lohan's morgue duty is expected to include janitorial work, such as cleaning autopsy tables, removing trash and medical waste, and sweeping floors.
On Wednesday, Lohan was briefly jailed after a judge revoked her probation. The 25-year-old actress bailed out within an hour.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner ordered Lohan to perform 16 hours of community service at the morgue each week until a Nov. 2 hearing to decide whether she should be sent back to jail.
Sautner determined Lohan violated her probation by skipping out on court-ordered community service at the Downtown Women's Center, which terminated the actress.
Lohan said the program wasn't "fulfilling," according to a statement read in court by Sautner.
Lohan had been ordered to complete 360 hours of community service at the center by next April as part of her probation in a shoplifting case involving a $2,500 necklace.
By October, prosecutors said she had completed just 12 hours.
Earlier this year, Lohan served 35 days under house arrest at her home in Venice, in lieu of a 120-day jail sentence, because her misdemeanor shoplifting conviction was a nonviolent offense.
