LeAnn Rimes: “I will never say I do not ‘regret’ my affair”

Yesterday, we had yet another preview of LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian’s ABC interview. It aired last night, but I can’t say that I watched it. From the coverage of it this morning, I think we already covered all of the relevant quotes anyway, specifically LeAnn’s discussion of her affair with Eddie: “I’ve always said I don’t live my life with regret. I can’t… It happens every day to so many people. And I if I take away my album sales, my words, and you have just another couple. You had two couples whose marriages didn’t work who really stumbled upon each other and fell in love. I can’t change [critics’] minds. Nothing I’m going to say is going to change it. I do know that and I have accepted that.” However, before the interview even aired, LeAnn got on her semantic high horse and tweeted this:

I said “I don’t live my life in regret.” I did not and never will say I do not “regret” my affair. I have had moments of regret and guilt over and over again, but i refuse to live my life in it. Any person working on moving on with their life in health and happiness must let go of those feelings. I’ve said I’m sorry for the hurt I have caused so many times and did again in the Robin interview. I wish happiness and peace for us all. Life is too short for hate and regret, and too long to not tell the truth. God doesn’t make mistakes, we do as humans and hopefully we take away lessons from each experience, humbled by the power of forgivenes [sic].

[From LeAnn’s Twitter]

Eh. I mean, I get what she’s saying, and I understand the semantic difference she’s trying to draw, but I still think she’s incredibly smug about the whole thing. And since I know this is going to set off a huge debate, let me just give my current opinion on the situation, which, surprisingly enough, hasn’t changed over the past year or so – I think LeAnn and Eddie were horrible for cheating on their respective spouses, but sh-t happens and it would have been perfectly possible for LeAnn and Eddie to both completely recover with some smart PR and some sense of mystery. My problem with LeAnn at this point isn’t that she wrecked her own marriage and helped wreck Eddie’s – my problem is everything that came after. My problem is that LeAnn thinks she’s “the victim” while simultaneously being an over-sharing, smug, nasty piece of work. It’s the dumb PR that bothers me most of all, because it wouldn’t have been that difficult for her to just TAKE IT DOWN A NOTCH. She actually puts a lot of effort into being so hated.

Here are some clips from the interview:

    SHUT UP!!! UGH!!

  2. David says:

    Here comes 100 posts of hate.

  3. anti says:

    Saying “God doesn’t make mistakes” in relation to her affair?

    Wow.

  4. brin says:

    Yeah….I didn’t watch it, the clips they promo’d were enough for me…I agree, she puts so much effort into trying to make everyone like her that she makes people dislike her more….just go away, Leann.

  5. Your mama says:

    Enough already! Please no more stories about either of them. PLEASE! Her & Kate Gosselin – over it.

  6. mln says:

    I think in general that there are reasons for affairs and good people can and do cheat. But Leann has had a pattern of inconsiderate behavior that goes beyond the pale, and is insensitive and hurtful not only to both of the cheated upon spouses but also the children.

  7. girl says:

    Is she expecting sympathy now? Both of these homewreckers (Eddie is NOT off the hook) need to just go away silently. I understand she wants to do some damage control of her career but she kind of just needs to live with it and wait things out.

  8. anoneemouse says:

    I agree with David – here come the hate posts. Think we need to let this one rest and just let them live their lives now. Can’t change the past…

  9. esblondie says:

    Shut. The. F&@#. Up.

  10. Dawn says:

    Im not a hater, im just really really honest. I agree with most of what was written in the article. Sh*t can and does happen. I would have been disliked her a lot less after the affair is she had come straight out and said, yes, I had an affair, and we are in love. But instead, she lied to her husband and lied to her fans until it was convenient for her. You cant lie and say nothing happened, then expect everyoe to believe you when you say it was love all along. Sorry, it doesnt work that way.

  11. Jezi says:

    I think damage control would come from being a bit humble and staying out of the limelight for a bit. Impossible for her.

  12. Eileen says:

    I 100% agree with you Kaiser. Her actions since the affair came out have been deplorable and that’s hands down what irks me about this whole thing. The disrespect she’s shown her ex Dean and his ex Brandi on a daily basis is just bad.
    What I find funny about all her smugness is Eddie was kicked out of the house by Brandi, he didn’t leave her. I think Leann did such a poor job at hiding the affair because she worried he wasn’t going to leave his wife. Glad they did do a bad job hiding it because then Brandi and Dean would have been with cheating spouses.

  13. Darla says:

    When has she ever said she’s sorry for her actions, for what she did. She’s said, “I’m sorry people got hurt”, like they were accidentially shoved in to a wood chipper or something and she had nothing to do with it, but has never acknowledged that SHE might actually be a teensy weensy bit responsible.

    I think her problem is that she “lacks self-awareness”, which means she has NO IDEA how insufferable, smug, and irritating she comes off. I think her life would become a lot easier if she would just get her recccomended daily allowance of PLEASE STFU (Patent Pending, available from amazon.com)

    The more she talks the worse she sounds.

  14. brin says:

    @Darla…LMAO!!!

  15. Ricci says:

    Lmao@ David
    so true haha
    Go LeAnn!!

  16. Johnny Depp's Girl says:

    Oh my head is going to explode.

    Leann, I.Dont.Care.

    Go screw a donkey for all I care, just shut up.

  17. cici says:

    David – no way – I like these two and wish them the best.

    SHIT HAPPENS, people; get over it. I hope they work out.

  18. ThirdChris says:

    Gah. She just needs to STFU for a while.

  19. laney says:

    Leann and Eddie are two smug self=centered whore dogs and she did’t care who got hurt as long as she could get her daily dose of Little Eddie

  20. sapphire says:

    May I endorse the STFU? She even argues with the haters on her Twitter!!

  21. bizzy says:

    I did not and never will say I do not “regret” my affair.

    does that mean she isn’t not happy about the way it worked out? or that i’m never not lukewarm about what she didn’t not do or never not did or would have not never did if she hadn’t known what she knows now which isn’t later but could be earlier or HALP HALP I CAN’T STOP.

  22. Iggles says:

    I don’t hate her people.

    People are so OTT with their LeAnn hatred. It’s people projecting the hurt they felt from their past relationships. That’s the reason they side so venomously with the person who was cheated on.

    Things are never so black and white. Yea, Eddie and Leann can be smug jerks, but every has good and bad in them. Even Brandi. I don’t think this affair makes them evil incarnate.

  23. bizzy says:

    @anti: Saying “God doesn’t make mistakes” in relation to her affair?

    adultery. god wants you to. no, really.

  24. Darla says:

    She just cancelled her Nov 5th concert due to “illness”. Man, she’s sick a lot. Maybe the music lingo for “illness” mean “suck-ass ticket sales.” 10-20 says there is some PDF of our little unhealthy girl fellating a margarita glass Friday night.

  25. guesty says:

    ad nauseum…

  26. bellaluna says:

    There is such a thing as at least ATTEMPTING to handle these type of situations with grace.

    I understand that’s completely lost on most “famous” people, but it IS still possible.

  27. Shelley says:

    @ Darla, if you’d read the article above you’d have seen LR’s direct quote: ‘I’ve said I’m sorry for the hurt I caused so many times.’

  28. archiepelago says:

    The fact that people get this much press for having an affair and the fact that women become A List celebrities making millions in endorsements because they made a sex tape and got peed on, well I guess my idea of decency and integrity is just screwed up to hell.

  29. Debra says:

    I watched the Robin Roberts interview and would like to know where in it that leann said she was sorry for the hurt she caused? did I blink and miss it?

  30. GeekChic says:

    Why is it that people hate LR so profoundly, but give Tori Spelling a pass for doing the exact same thing? And it’s not like Tori just laid low after her affair–she has aired it all on a reality show, for dog’s sake.

    You know, stuff happens, people fall in and out of love, life goes on. Get over it.

    And please, stop with the comments criticizing her appearance. Why must we women bash one another incessantly about our looks/weight? If you don’t like her, fine, but why call her ugly? How is her physical appearance in any way relevant?

  31. irena NL says:

    When are the official “gang” of the usual haterz arriving?

  32. Jezi says:

    @Shelley she’s just saying that now, but in the past she’s never said she was sorry. She always said she was sorry people got hurt. She’s trying to pick up the pieces of her career now and do damage control. It’s her own fault that people lash out at her, she doesn’t know when to stay quiet. She wants us all to accept her love instead of just letting it fade away.

  33. 4Real says:

    Nope…still hate her. Eddie who?

  34. Marjalane says:

    Leann’s boyfriend will stick with her until he gets another job probably, but then he’ll cheat on her with someone younger and prettier, and we’ll have to see Leann cry about that, too.

    What I really want to know is why does ABC think she’s relevant anyway? Was it the SHAPE magazine thing? As far as I can see, Leann is pretty much universally hated.

  35. Roxanne75 says:

    People are so mean to people they don’t even know.

  36. Ricci says:

    @Geekchick
    maybe its because LeAnns man is a very hot guy?? Tori’s man isn’t much so?
    I vouch for jealousy!

  37. Rita says:

    The snow globe princess in her easy-bake oven world assumes she can convince people the affair was a matter of divine intervention and Eddie fell in love with her at first sight. However, LeAnn’s delusion ignores the fact that Eddie ran home to Brandi after LeAnn made the affair public and posted pictures of him with Brandi hoping the “LeAnn Fly” would find another turd to buzz around. (Not to mention that Eddie was boning his wife on multiple occasions 6 months after he had committed to LeAnn and while he was boning his other mistress as well). Camelot meets Caligula.

    Brandi is on CBS this morning on a show called The Talk where I assume she will let us all know that after two children and 8 years of marriage in a 15 year relationship, her role in life was not to hold Eddie’s horse and assist the princess into the saddle. I can fully understand Brandi being pissed at Eddie for capitulating to LeAnn’s demand that Brandi was only an irrelevant and temporary means to Eddie’s true destiny of love….I mean WTF kind of people are they?

  38. Amy says:

    If she hadn’t been so public about the relationship, posing for cameras all the time and being in general a twat, rubbing it in her ex-husband’s face and Eddie’s ex-wife’s face she was oh so happy in love, maybe people wouldn’t hate her so much.
    Brad and Angelina had the decency to be discreet about their relationship when it first started. They knew Angelina would be accused of being a homewrecker (and she still is by a lot of you) and Brad having a wandering eye… Fact is they didn’t really go public with their relationship until Angelina got pregnant with Shiloh. At least you didn’t see them all over each other like Leann and Eddie.
    Leann, seriously, shut up. The less you say, the better.

  39. Kaye says:

    Suffering from LeAnn overload. No more. Please.

  40. Eileen says:

    @GeekChic people absolutely DO fall in and out of love everyday, but what’s wrong with expecting people to act with integrity and end their relationships before hooking up with someone else? Especially celebrities because then think of the pain and humiliation they cause their ex? Its all over everywhere. Look at Jennifer Aniston, I doubt she is crying herself to sleep every night now, but she is STILL living with the “scorned woman” tag and how long has it been?

  41. Jezi says:

    Who said we don’t dislike Tori, Dean & all the other idiots who can’t seem to get out of one relationship first before getting into another? I don’t watch Tori’s show. I never will. I will not watch Mr. & Mrs. Smith anymore either as well. Saw it once out of pure curiosity. I don’t even like looking at Julia Roberts’ movies either because of the crap she pulled. I don’t just hold this high moral standard to Leann and not the others. I just think Leann needs to learn a thing or to and let the affair die down. Her fans accuse Brandi of not letting go, yet Leann has spoken about the affair non-stop and that’s ok. Whatever, I guess according to Irena I’m a “hater”. Hating on what I’d like to know. A woman who sleeps with a married man and cheats on her own husband, a woman whose put this relationship above her own career and cancels “concerts” just because she can’t let him be alone for two seconds, a woman who flaunts her boyfriend and doesn’t care about the kids that hurt from it. Yeah, I’m so hating on her.

  42. Lee says:

    Girl needs to shut the f*&k up and start singing.

    Note to Leanne:
    Less talking, more singing = getting back to being a less annoying person and reminding us all that you actually have talent and are not just a home wrecking hoe 🙂

  43. DetRiotgirl says:

    Has anyone here actually seen “northern lights”, the movie that Leann and Eddie made together for lifetime? It’s on YouTube, and I highly recommend it for a good laugh.

    Now, as I’ve mentioned in other posts today, I’m currently recovering from a car accident and thusly totally high on Valium. But, I’m reasonably sure Northern Lights is hilarious even if you’re sober.

    Ok, so I admit that I watched the clips out of order, and passed out in a Valium haze without finishing the movie. But, you really don’t need to see the whole thing to see the fantastically terrible acting or amazingly foreshadowing script.

    Since I feel fairly confident that I am one of maybe four of five people who has ever bothered to watch even half of of this movie, let me give you the breakdown:

    *camera pans in on the wilderness of Alaska, Eddie walks out of a plane looking confused*

    Eddie: Alaska?

    Random Stereotypical Hardened By Life Local© (RSHBL© for short): Alaska is so tough, you’re basically doomed right now. Why don’t you just throw yourself off a mountain city boy? You’ll never be as tough as this random stereotypical hardened by life local©!

    Eddie: Um, excuse me, aren’t you my landlord? Could you maybe just show me to my apartment? And maybe some local vagina? Thanks.

    RSHBL©: Oh, right. Well, you won’t be paying rent for long. You know why? Because you’re a pussy who can’t handle the hardened local life here in ALASKA!

    *Leann walks by, staring Eddie down with her best dick snatching face on, Eddie stares blankly, as he often does*

    RSHBL©: Here’s your room. Try not to wet yourself from the pressures of living in ALASKA where bears might eat you and your piss might freeze solid while you stand! MUHAHAHA… Oh, and I’m having a party tonight. Would you like to attend?

    *Eddie stares blankly, but I’m assuming that was his way of saying yes*

    *Eddie is now staring blankly during a party scene, Leann readies her vagina and swings over to talk to him*

    Leann: So, have you heard how tough Alaska is yet?

    *Eddie says something through a blank stare*

    Leann: Do you want to dance? I brought condoms.

    *Leann’s slutty, drunk mom then wanders into the scene looking somehow trashier than Leann herself*

    Leann’s Mom: Hey newbie! Do you want a ride on the old Ferris Wheel? Forget this trash!

    *shoves Leann out of the waiting line for the new dick in town*

    Eddie: Ummm… I have to go now…

    *runs in terror, happens to run into Leann outside*

    Leann: I have a very emotional backstory about my crazy, skanky mom. Everyone in this town is running from something.

    Eddie: What are you running from?

    Leann: My gay husband, my trailer park family and my poor record sales.

    Eddie: What?

    Leann: Look! There’s the northern lights! Do you want to have sex?

    Then I accidentally skipped a few scenes, and went straight to this mess:

    Leann: Let’s have sex. You know, hot, casual meaningless sex.

    Eddie: Ok

    *Eddie stares blankly before being pulled into a cabin by Leann’s hardened Alaskan vagina*

    And there you have it folks! The movie northern lights! Paraphrased, of course.

  44. MissyA says:

    I think it’s so trite when people say, “I don’t live my life with regret”. Bullshit! I regret three or four things every day, starting with breakfast. (Don’t you dare judge my custard filled long john!)

    As a more serious example – I was tangled in the midst of a physically and emotionally abusive, codependent relationship when I met Mr Missy (the man I’ve loved for over five years strong).

    I don’t want to get into too many details, but when the on/off ex found out that I’ve been seeing the current Mr . . . the police had to be called. The ex spent the night in jail. It was ugly.

    Thinking about the details of the day fill me with a deep and palpable regret. I knew my ex was unhealthy for me, and I for him, but I wish I could have told him in a different way. I’ve been burdened with an underlying guilt these past five years that I’ve completely destroyed the psyche of a human being that I had once loved. It’s a hurt so deep that accusations of “slut” “whore” and “homewrecker” barely affect me – on some sick level I agreed and accept the label.

    I’m a lot stronger emotionally today than I was five years ago. I can accept my past while lamenting my choices. I’ve done a lot of shitty, selfish things that have really, truly hurt people – but there’s nothing I can do to repair the damage. The only thing I can do is love myself, and let go of the nasty person I was. But there’s still regret. I don’t think I’d like to meet a person who doesn’t regret inflicting such emotional pain on another person.

    I will say this though – when Mr Missy and I share “our story” the majority of people are incredibly sweet and agree that it’s wonderful we found each other. They accept us for the people we are now and Mr and I have many beautiful friends who are genuinely happy we are together. Only the bitter and judgmental pick up on the ambiguity of our previous relationships and say, “So you were engaged?!?!”

  45. Jeri says:

    CANCEL/SHUT DOWN the TWITTER ACCOUNT.

  46. mln says:

    OK I am going to be the one to say why does the Bermuda triangle get dragged into this it isn’t comparable at all. There were no children involved and once the marraige ended no one had to communicate with anyone else unless they wanted to.

    In this case Brandi and Leann have to negotiate with eachother for as long as she and Eddie are involved especially as long as the kids are young, and informing Twitter of ER visits but not mom is the kind of horrible stuff that can damage a child and can keep Brandi from moving on, especially since she seems to be financially dependedent upon Eddie.
    I will say again it isn’t the fact that there may or may not been an affair that bothers me as much as the way she handled the aftermath in the most selfish inconsiderate way possible without regards to either spouses or the kids.

  47. brin says:

    @Iggles…so by what you are saying, does that mean people who support Leann have cheated & can relate to her?
    I have empathy for Brandi but I haven’t been cheated on…not projecting anything.

  48. Eileen says:

    @DetRiotgirl
    That was f’ing hilarious! I didn’t watch the movie but it SOUNDS good enough for me! I laughed until I had tears scared my husband he thought I was crying. lol

  49. tango says:

    Shut up. Maybe if she didn’t tweet every moment of her life, she could sell some tickets and earn the money she’ll need to support Eddie. I think she realizes she’s becoming more and more irrelevant and disliked and thinks the more interviews she gives and tweets she posts will help her regain her prior popularity. Someone needs to tell her the truth.

  50. Rita says:

    First @ kaiser- You have to know that LeAnn’s thread counts are “Gold, pure gold Baby”

    Second @ Detriotgirl- Great LMAO

    Third- Another concert cancelled? God that make like 8 in less than 2 months. Last year the excuse was always “Needs vocal rest” but she wore it out. For a girl with a hard body on Shape, works out everyday, is a happy go lark, and gets a healthy doze of Cuban peen twice a day this gal is sure sick a lot. (No ticket sales more likely).

    I wonder if her illness was brought on by the fact that Brandi might spill a few beans this morning. Or maybe Eddie had to watch the kids. LeAnn can’t do a show without someone holding her hand.

  51. brin says:

    @DetRiotGirl…..HILARIOUS! Maybe the sub-title should be”Tough Vagina”.

  52. Crash2GO2 says:

    @DetRiotgirl: Get well soon and quit watching crappy television! 🙂

  53. DKO says:

    LeAnn has now said she’s taking a twitter break because she’s supposedly sick with the flu. Two possibilities: 1.) Either she finally figured out how nauseating her interview was, or 2.) She got her eyes fixed and finally saw herself in the mirror. Either way, I hope she stays off of Twitter for good.

  54. 221Jazz says:

    DetRiotgirl: I think I love you. 🙂

  55. NayNay says:

    Sounds like some major back-peddaling to me.

  56. deb says:

    @Rita Right on point as always my Dear

  57. brin says:

    @DKO….cricket….cricket…lol

  58. Darla says:

    DetRiotgirl

    Refill the valiums and go to Hollywood!! That was fricking hillarious!!! You should be writing for the Daily Show!

    MissyA say whatever you want, but having a bad boyfriend does not excuse what you did. Knowingly and frequently repeating an act that can and will devastate someone else’s life is not okay. This passive aggresive “I love myself now because I’m so happy” is great for you and him, but what about your ex’s? Were there any kids who were the casualties of your joy? Do you realize that you and he hurt someone so badly that she was compelled to violence? Someone who can betray someone they claim to love on that level has something fundementally wrong with them.

  59. mln says:

    @MissyA I absolutely get what you are saying and am happy for you and your Mr. If only LeAnn could express herself that maturely

  60. dread pirate cuervo says:

    @DRG – Do you want to dance? I brought condoms. Priceless!

  61. fungirl says:

    @detriotgirl, i seen the movie so the blank stares and all you talked about is funnier than ever. loved your post. you know, i cant say i agree with homewreckers considering some whorebag slut many years ago chased my finace till the asshole gave in and slept with her, which then led to us canc. our wedding the day before!. i was upset for like a minute. it was hard, but to me, thats a blessing cuz hes a HUGE loser still to this day and she’s still ugly (not being mean, she really is, frizzy red hair and a thousand ugly freckles and pasty ugly face and weighs like 90 pounds) and shes single cuz she caught some disease and lives alone (no lie) karma. i believe in karma. i also believe you cant help who you fall in love with (not talking about my ex, that was just sex and the girl was only 15 and a whore). im taking about LR. if she just fell in love and stopped twittering her every move about the KIDDOS and making KIDDOS lunch and KIDDOS this and that, then i think she would not be hated. angelina jolie and tori spelling did the same thing (tori met her man on a lifetime movie), and i still hate angelina jolie, but she is not as hated by ppl because she doesnt have a twitter acct. that she tweets every second of her sex life with brad, who was wayyy hotter and better off with jennifer anniston..it does happen every day. cheaters. liars. marriages breaking up. my last relationship, another girl chased him and she knew us. she knew i moved to be with him and she knew we were a couple. but she called. texted. bugged him. he gave in (yes another asshole, i know how to pick em) and he gave in. and it was one night. meant nothing but it broke us up. but again karma. she was engaged a few years ago and her fiance left her at the alter. wow. now shes single. working at a bar where she wears like no clothes hardly. and is still a whore. i seen her at a football game a few years ago. she didnt say a word and me being nice just let it go of course. i was happy she got her heart ripped out. thats two ex’s. two broken relationships cuz two whores chased the man i was with. their loss. im a great girl. i just have shit taste in guys lol, and BOTH girls got what they deserved. nothing in the end. spread their legs for no reason. and both guys are still single and losers along with the girls. one living with a disease and the other working in a titty bar. nice lol

  62. why? says:

    Leann is sick, AGAIN?

    This is why I don’t think that they are as happy as they keep trying to make everyone believe.

    Leann always has way too many Somatic complaints(ie-headaches, stomace aches, the flu, etc…) ans she is just 28 yo. How is it that EVERYDAY something is wrong with her?

    According to this interview her life is sunshine and rainbows, yet she is sick?

    Or is sick just a nice way of saying that her concert has to be canceled due to low ticket sales?

    Or does sick mean that she is too afraid(because he is going to go off and have love at first sight with another woman) to leave EC in LA by himself while she is gone?

    Or does sick mean that she is going to spend the day posting “get over it, move on, why does everyone hate on LR, why isn’t anyone hating on AJ BP or Tori and Dean” posts on these sites in an attempt to fix the backlash from this interview?

  63. Jezi says:

    Woohoo!!!! She’s taking a break? Hope it lasts more than two weeks. Her fans are going to be foaming at the mouth in desperation. Just kidding, gotta love her fans, they sure do show their dedication to the homewrecker.

  64. brin says:

    Did you all see Brandi on “The Talk”?
    She seems sweet but kind of lost….hope she can be strong for her boys….at least she’s over Eddie!

  65. craigc says:

    STFU

  66. notsoanonymous says:

    The only thing I’m suffering from around this site is overuse of the words ‘smug’ and ‘grifter’

  67. mln says:

    @64 just watched it, she was very mature about Leann.

  68. lrm says:

    I don’t really understand why she is on a t.v. special interview thingy…and why she is so commonly in the blogs.
    Is it just the affair?
    b/c she is not that big of a celebrity-or she wasn’t.
    I mean, yes,she’s a major singer/has had success there-but really, is she that interesting as a person, to warrant this attention?

    Um, decidely, no. I dont get it-i usually dont click on her articles b/c, again, who cares at all?

    about him or her.

  69. why? says:

    I saw Brandi’s interview on the Talk and she was great and looked great!!!!!!!!

  70. brin says:

    @fungirl….now that sounds like a great lifetime movie!

  71. laney says:

    Brandi was very gracious and sweet on the TALK show Wish Sharon had shut up a little bit and let her talk more There are many GOOD men out there that would love to have a chance with Brandi Eddie did indeed give up steak for chopped liver but the liver had lots of money Wish only the best for Brandi and only the worst for Leann and MR Leann

  72. bettie says:

    You slut! No, just kidding. She’s getting enough abuse so I’ll leave her alone. (EVIL cackling laugh)HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

    I don’t understand why this is so news worthy. People have and will do this until the end of the world. Doesn’t make it okay but get real and get over it already.

  74. Jezi says:

    So this is why Leann is considered a stalker. Apparently she phoned in to speak to Sharon Osbourne prior to the Talk show to ask Sharon’s opinion on things. She couldn’t just let Brandi talk without putting in her two cents first. She needs help.

  75. Miles says:

    and the countdown to the break-up begins…
    anytime a couple goes on TV gushing over their ‘mad love’, they always seem to break up soon after. I would love to see karma bit this girl in the butt.
    I dont think ppl would have so much disgust for her if it wasnt for her constant tweeting about Brandi’s kids and their ‘amazing life’. I doubt I would have ever heard of her if it wasnt for that nonsense. Now its like a train wreck that i cant stop watching.

  76. brin says:

    @Jezi…For real? What a control freak!
    And on that subject….why can’t Brandi have a # to reach them when the kids are with them?

  77. Jezi says:

    Oh excuse me, Sharon spoke to Leann, not sure if she called her or Leann called in. My bad!!!

  78. Jezi says:

    Oh excuse me, Sharon spoke to Leann, not sure if she called her or Leann called in. My bad!!!

  79. cprincess says:

    OK-well can you shut up now?

  80. Jezi says:

    Brandi doesn’t have the number because Leann is obviously insecure about her relationship. Brandi is a threat to her.

  81. happygirl says:

    @Jezi – GO GIRL!!!

  82. heidi says:

    looks like their pool is not fenced.

  83. MissyA says:

    I just want to be clear – I’m not defending Leann in the slightest. I think her media campaign is indicative of a lack of remorse – she’s stupid at the very least, and vindictive at worse. I’m just saying there are people out there who make similar mistakes and learn humility from them. Not everyone who cheats is a serial “cheater” – though I am thankful to leave that abusive relationship, I could never do that to another person again, despite the way I was treated.

    Love your partner. Let them know how much they mean to you. Don’t just tell them, show them. Every day. And if your partner isn’t showing you love and respect you deserve, it’s time to reevaluate your relationship. It’s a lesson I learned the hard way, and I regret not leaving earlier.

    Darla – there is absolutely nothing you can say to me that I haven’t already ruminated on to the point of serious depression. You’re wasting your time trying to guilt me over choices that I’ve already made, and lessons I’ve already learned. I love this blog, because I enjoy reading others’ perspectives as well as contributing my own.

    But you do articulate my point about the bitter and the judgmental. Enjoy your life.

  84. JJ says:

    During the interview LR was asked which tabloid story bothered her the most and she said “the stalking” one. Hey TwitterDumb when you cancelled a concert for vocal problems and went to the Lakers game and coincidently meet EverReady Eddie in the bar and are captured on television yelling and jumping up and down… (Taking a breath here)….that is STALKING! It is hard to believe but she is even looking worse from a career standpoint. They just looked like two big liars.

  85. Shirylgirl67 says:

    This bitch needs a full time job!
    Maybe if she didn’t broadcast every poo she makes this would have blown over by now. Everyone would have been on another bitch to burn at the stake.
    Now she knows what God is thinking. Jeez Leanne you are a big weirdo!

  86. brin says:

    US Weekly is now reporting about Brandi’s being on “The Talk” & stating that she & Leann will be sitting down to talk….maybe that’s why Leann is suddenly feeling ill.

  87. LT says:

    @Kaiser – Agree w/ you 100%.

    @DetroitGirl – That’s. Awesome.

  88. TeeTee says:

    is she still selling music??

    LOL

    she is murdering her career, smdh

  89. mln says:

    I thought Brandi handled herself well on the Talk ironically 2 of the hosts are hall-of famers Sharon Osbourne and Julie Chen each talked about their experience being the other woman and counseled Brandi. I do think Sharon was being genuine and I also think she loves the hell out of OZZY. But Julie Chen on the other hand can’t find the words for what a sneaky gold digger she is.

  90. kellsbells says:

    YES LeAnn, sh*t happens indeed. But when your the one flinging the sh*t, stop crying victim, pick up a shovel, and clean up your mess.

    Humility – which LeAnn clearly lacks, goes a long way.

  91. brin says:

    @min..I thought Brandi came across as very genuine. She seems totally opposite from Leann….quiet, sweet, not fame whorish like Mr. & Mrs. Rimes.

  92. happygirl says:

    OMG DetRiotGirl…LMAO…thank you for that! Hahahahahaha! 🙂

  93. Shelley says:

    @ Daria – can’t believe you would post that being left by someone ‘compels’ someone else to violent acts. Since when is that the rule – you left me and thereby compelled me to violence?!

    And as a sidenote to all this sexist ranting about LR and her appearance – she and EC chose one another so we can assume they find each other attractive, hopefully inside as well as outside. Since you all share your opinions of her appearance I’ll add mine to say I think she looks quite pretty when her hair and makeup are kept natural and fresh. Her looks are very different than BG who seems to have had a good deal of cosmetic surgeries and looks hard somehow.

  94. Jaquebelle says:

    Experienced some deep soul searching to examine why this woman irks me beyond measure. After all, she is certainly not the first female celebrity to steal a woman’s husband. I loved her when she first appeared on the country music scene and I don’t even like country music lol.

    After many sleepless nights, pacing back and forth in my own purgatory of thoughts, I came to the doppler conclusion that it is better to be thought a fool, than open your mouth and remove all doubt. Stop explaining. Stop complaining and live your shallow life w/ your equally shallow future ex-husband.

    Those which cheat w/ you eventually cheat on you LeAnn and soon enough you will be sobbing for entirely different reasons. One love.

  95. Heavenbound says:

    Ugh!! Ok I watched the interview with Brandi G. My conclusion is they ALL need to shut up and go away.

    By the way Brandi is pure plastic. Neither LR or BG are good looking IMO. Sharon Osborn was right why not send a letter or contact your attorney. How immature to try and contact someone via Twitter such a public forum. She loves the attention as much as Leann does.

  96. Beth says:

    DetRiotgirl, I actually laughed out load reading that!

    “Leann readies her vagina and swings over to talk to him” = priceless.

  97. Liana says:

    You know, it’s FINE that they fell in love. But it would have been the mature and respectful thing to end their current relationships before embarking on their life together. I think they could have showed a little restraint. People do fall in and out of love. Sometimes you find the love of your life when you’re with someone else. It’s how you handle yourselves that matters. Sneaking around isn’t good for anyone. Much better to clear up your lives and then get together.

  98. 4Real says:

    *Stares blankly at @DetRiotgirl*

    LOL!!! FUNNIEST DAMN THING I READ ALL DAY!

  99. betty says:

    @heavenbound That’s Sharons opinion. Brandi was tweeted when her son was in the ER now that was tacky. Brandi should have had a phone number.The arrogance of that bitch Leann.

  100. lucky7 says:

    Its unacceptable that Brandi doesn’t have direct access to her two little boys when the are away from her. Not providing brandi with a phone number so that she can speak to her children, and so her children can have access to her when she’s no physically present is wrong on every level. It also shows just how insecure leann is about brandi. I know that I am suppose to believe they fell in love but there actions from start to finish leads me to believe they are full of sh*t. Love has nothing to do with this, and brandi is a bigger threat to leann then I thought.

  101. Salina says:

    If u look up leann from 2009 summer Eddie refers to his affair as a “speedbump in his marriage with brandi”.

  102. icantbelievethis says:

    “Its unacceptable that Brandi doesn’t have direct access to her two little boys when the are away from her. Not providing brandi with a phone number so that she can speak to her children, and so her children can have access to her when she’s no physically present is wrong on every level.”

    I have a hard time believing this. She doesn’t have EC’s cell number? Usually custody agreements will outline when parents can call kids. Sounds like she needs to amend the custody agreement.

  103. joeoofof tththethesthese ttv sshshoshows that rew says:

    Love and chemistry happen. I’ve been there – I understand it. But it still is wrong. The person I am disgusted with is Kelsey Grammar and how he treated his wife. I am no Longer a fan of his.

  104. betty says:

    @ Shelley Regardless of Brandis plastic look as you put it,Eddie must have liked it. Leann is no beauty I’m.sure Leann bankroll contributed to her appeal.

  105. mauweebound says:

    I think I’m gonna barf, E is saying on their site that those two are engaged. No class

  106. Shelley says:

    Lord Betty that is not what I said – I said BG looks like she’s had cosmetic surgeries and
    looks hard – I did not say she looks ‘plastic’ and I wasn’t insulting her, just stating my opinion.

  107. betty says:

    It appears everything those clowns do is for publicity. Leann claims she was sick earlier and now calling the tabs to announce their engagement. Puleez!!! How phony can these two get. I guess she thinks this publicity will be helpful in pushing her new single. I doubt it the only thing probably will be Oh Really!!!So did N.Lachey.

  108. sandy says:

    please make it stop, just finally go away, we really don’t care any more, we would have forgotten them by now, and yes she is fug, he won’t stay, watch. now go away.

  109. fwozbo says:

    She is good at forgiving herself.

  110. brin says:

    Awwww….I now pronounce you cheater & cheatess.

  111. Istanem says:

    She doesn’t get that if she just had a bit of class and just stopped talking then people would forget and stop hating her but she continues to rub it in everyone’s face so we continue to hate…what happened to having a bit of dignity. she has no shame.

  112. brin says:

    I looked on her twitter page & all she was talking about was a turd burner (her nickname for Eddie?).

  113. why? says:

    Shelley,

    Well there is obviously something seriously wrong with LR and EC relationship. If they were content and happy, they wouldn’t spend so much time trying to convince people that they are madly in love. They wouldn’t pay a pr person to sit on these sites and write how happy and in love they look, if things were great.

    I don’t doubt that they will be together forever. LR is desperate to prove that her relationship with EC was and is better than his marriage to BG and she will stop at nothing to make it happen. As for EC, he is just an oppourtunist, milking LR all he can get out of her. If marrying LR gets him the jobs, trips, shopping sprees, and money, he is going to do that.

    EC and LR did not come off as a strong couple in that interview, someone noted that they looked so unsure of their own relationship. We hear them saying that they are in love and that they are going to be together forever, yet it’s not being reflected in their actions.

    LR spends more time TALKING about her relationship, than she does in putting in the time to make it work. This is what everyone sees. How is her life sunshine and rainbows when she is ALWAYS sick and she would rather spend 24/7 on twitter boo hooing about how unfair life is because no one can see that her and EC love is the REAL type of LOVE?

    LR and EC just keep burning bridges. Someone said that she was going to partner with Shape mag to do piece on cyber bullying, now considering that she opened up that account under the name of WEWENLOVE and that she writes “lol” to those posters who trash BG, does LR really understand that she is just going to burn more bridges?

  114. jennifer says:

    duuude…”rita”…are you brandi?????

  115. why? says:

    Here it comes.

    When all else fails and Leann still can not get sympathy, just blame Brandi for all of the backlash Leann is receiving.

    Leann really needs to get off of this “it’s just a handful of people who dislike me” thing. What does that say about her as an artist, when only a “handful of people” (according to Leann) can keep her single out of the top 20s?

  116. why? says:

    Well it looks like we were right all along. The only reason Eddie did the ABC interview with Leann was because Leann offered him a shopping spree, new job hosting a New Years Eve party in Cabo, and a trip to Cabo.

    It appears that Leann’s REAL LOVE, is nothing more than a publicity stunt. She probably thinks that she can make all of the negative feedback go away by paying for positive reviews and arguing that anyone who doesn’t support her is just “jealous”.
