Lindsay Lohan to reveal Playboy pics

Lindsay Lohan is set to unveil her highly-anticipated Playboy shoot on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The troubled actress will appear on the popular talk show on December 15 to promote her racy spread, which is due to hit newsstands in late December.

Her representative confirmed the reports to NewsCore this week.

Lindsay's picture spread will appear in the January/February issue of the men's magazine. She initially posed for the magazine in late October but had to reshoot the images after Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner was reportedly unhappy with the photos.

Lindsay's appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show will be her first media appearance since serving time in jail. The 25-year-old star was sentenced to 30 days in prison after admitting to violating the terms of her probation in early November.

She surrendered to jail, and served just four-and-a-half hours behind bars.

Lindsay pleaded no contest to stealing a necklace from a luxury boutique earlier this year. As part of her sentence she was ordered to complete community service at a women's shelter in Los Angeles, but didn't show up when she should have.

As well as the jail time, she's been ordered to work at a morgue and attend psychotherapy session.

Lindsay is rumoured to have earned $1million for stripping off for the iconic magazine, after it was claimed her legal woes have hindered her acting prospects.

Her representative previously claimed the images show the star in a good light.

"The pictorial is absolutely fantastic and very tasteful, and will be accompanied by an interview that will let readers see another side of Lindsay," her representative said.
