LeAnn Rimes wasn’t too sick to take a child to Disneyland & tweet about it incessantly

Over the weekend, LeAnn Rimes had to cancel a concert in Ohio because she was just so “sick”. Several people pointed out in the comments that there were reports of LeAnn partying her bones off the night before, so it’s possible that LeAnn’s “flu” was just an old-fashioned hangover. Adding to the “She was never sick” conspiracy is the simple fact that LeAnn was tweeting incessantly throughout her “illness”. Granted, she addicted to Twitter and it’s hard to break that addiction, but if she really felt like hell, I find it hard to believe that she was still capable of tweeting so much.

So here’s more evidence that she was never sick – LeAnn and Eddie Cibrian took a 6-year-old child to Disneyland yesterday as part of this girl’s “wish” from the Wish Upon a Hero Foundation. You can see the photos here.

Disneyland lived up to its reputation as the happiest place on Earth yesterday—with a little help from LeAnn Rimes.

The singer and her husband, Eddie Cibrian, spent Monday afternoon with 6-year-old Cadence Cogs, who is suffering from multiple disorders, with one leading to blindness. The little girl’s dream was to visit and see Disneyland before she completely lost her sight.

Rimes and Cibrian worked with the Wish Upon a Hero foundation and arranged to fly out Cadence and her family from their home in Honolulu for a weeklong stay at Disneyland after reading a post about Cadence’s plight on Twitter.

“Just spent a lovely hr with the most beautiful family, the Cogs family,” Rimes later tweeted. “Cadence is a blessing. She was so wide eyed & the family so grateful! A little girl’s whole life was made today and her whole family got to share in her joy. @wishuponahero THIS is why you guys should be so proud of the organization you have created.”

[From E! News]

I’m not going to yell at LeAnn for that – it was nice for her to pay for the kid and the kid’s family to come out to LA and I’m sure everyone had a lovely time. I will yell at LeAnn for patting herself on the back for her good deed, and going on and on about it on Twitter. I will also yell at her for being unprofessional enough to cancel a show when she probably wasn’t even sick.

PS… I can’t believe I missed these photos! They’re from March 7th – LeAnn and Eddie walking around Malibu after LeAnn called the paps. Famewhores.

    Is she still supposed to be a singer? At this point all I associate with her career nowadays is her incessant twitter dialogues and her calling the razzi to show how her and Eddie’s marriage is going “well”. Her legs are just skin and knobby bones.

    • Maxx says:

      mte… and why is she ALWAYS at the beach..smh *sigh*

    • Hootysgram says:

      I’m so sick of this no-body and her pukey husband. Why doesn’t somebody grab that phone out of her hand…and stick it up her obnoxious a**? Enough already. We can’t wait til this clown dumps your ass for the next flavor of the month..and we can watch you crash and burn tweeting your pathetic ass off over how he burned you. Then won’t Brandi have the last laugh?

  2. Relli says:

    The Cheshire cat smiles at the camera of the paps is priceless!

  3. brin says:

    I love celebitchy because they are the only site that calls Leann out on her sh!t. She will use anyone for her own benefit.

    • Ming says:

      No no no no no.

      It’s a shame these people get press (bad Celebitchy !)

      It’s even worse we read it (bad readers !)

  4. AudreyS says:

    I’d be really pissed if I had tickets to that concert. What an idiot! Even school kids know that when they “play sick” to get out of school, you don’t spend the day playing outside.

  5. J O'CONNELL says:

    I don’t give a sh*t when celebrities pat themselves on the back for doing nice things for sick kids – it means the world to the child and lets them forget their situation for a while. I just hope LeAnn WASN’T sick and exposing that poor kid to something contagious.

  6. atorontogal says:

    uuuccchhhh! Her face and her store bought boobies just make me cringe!

  7. Sapphire says:

    Apparently, she didn’t “pay” for anything-except perhaps admission. American Airlines fronted airfare, Disney put them up and according to her twitter, Leann only spent an hour with them. Charity? Not hardly.

    • Rita says:

      Good call, honey. LeAnn didn’t pay a dime for the airline tickets or entry into Disneyland. She took an hour from her do-nothing day to get some free publicity. The kids should have charged her for the photo-op.

      LeAnn Rimes never puts her money where her mouth is. All her expenses are paid for any “charity” she attends and often she gets an appearance fee.

      …because it’s all about LeAnn.

  8. Nothing like a nice romantic walk on the beach. Just LeAnn, Eddie, and Twitter.

  9. Jayna says:

    If this brought the poor child happiness that is all I care about. Children given so much burden to carry at a young age and the parents who love them always makes me so sad and grateful. If the family had a great time and LeAnn made them happy I have not one bad thing to say nor any negative energy. My energy goes to the child and the family.

  10. lizzard33 says:

    Leann has completely screwed herself in this situation.

    1)If she had such a horrible flu that knocked her, a seemingly healthy woman, on her ass then she should NOT have been around sick children with compromised immune systems a mere 2 days after her “diagnosis”! I am sure eddie could have gone without her or someone else would have gladly taken those kids to Disney. That little girls wish was not to be around this famewhore but to go to Disneyland which could have happened without her if she was so sick.
    2) If Leann wasn’t sick, which lets hope she wasn’t for the sake of those children, then she lied and canceled her concert last minute. Lying and canceling shows is NOT professional.

    Obviously it is an amazing thing that this little girl got to go to Disney and like Kaiser said you can’t knock Leann down for that. However, if she truly cared about that little girl she would have payed for her to go but stayed home herself so as to not get the child sick. Also, so many celebrities are more charitable than this skank and do not parade it in front of everyone’s face.

    I often refrain from commenting on Leann stories because I am afraid she reads the comments and she is so mentally f***ed that one day she may spin into a psychotic tizzy. However, I had to comment on this one because Leann is just so painfully stupid. At least cover up your lies properly or if you weren’t lying for gods sake don’t knowingly expose a vulnerable child to the flu!!

    “A little girl’s whole life was made today ”

    Just…wow.

    • J O'C says:

      OMG. I skimmed right over that. HOLY COW. WHO TALKS LIKE THAT?!?!

    • brin says:

      coo coo.

    • Annie B says:

      Leeanne gets this type of reaction from her, ummmmm, specialist, most devoted fan(atic)s.

      Leeeee….it makes my LIFE that you TWEET me!! I LOVE YOU Leeeeannnnn!! I am crying as I tweet this. I will die if I don’t see you some day!! If I meet you, I can die HAPPY!!! You make my LIFE!

      I am not even exaggerating. Creepy as fcuk.

    • skuddles says:

      Yes LeAnn, you be the doer of good. Job good done!

    • thetruthhurts says:

      The little girl’s “whole life” would have “been made” if they found a cure to get her sight back. Not by going to Disneyland. Really LeAnn.

  12. LisaAnn says:

    Leann was never sick! Eddie was on some race car event with a couple of hot single women. Some Mexican actress and that Barbieri chick. Leann worries when Eddie is not around, she is ok when he is home with the kids. In this instance Eddie was with other women and the kids were home with Brandi. The Mexican actress was tweeting pics of herself with Eddie, Barbieri and others. That sh!t sent Leann into a “panic” she fakes sickness in order to cancel and fly home. She worries when Eddie is not around her 24/7. This charade of hers will soon backfire because Eddie can’t be around her forever. Soon he will tire of her clinging ways; eventually someone will take pity on Eddie and give him a movie role or full time work. Get ready folks, Leann will chew her foot off when Eddie has to be on a movie set for more than two months. She will invent a new virus strain and fake sick herself out of a gig. I love how the BBs give her such grief LMAO!!!

    • ohmy! says:

      LMAO! Thats delicious!

      I suspected it was something like that. From what Ive read, the only shows she cancels are the ones that Ediot doesnt go to. Id love to see the pics with him and those women, they were probably a breath of fresh air to be around compared to LR.

      I do believe I hear the Karma clock ticking

  13. LisaAnn says:

    FYI celebitchy Leann did not pay for anything. Most of the gifts were donated. Wish Upon A Hero ask folks to donate money etc. Leann donated her time she asks folks on her twitter to donate and sent a tweet to AA to donate the flights. Hold on tight to Eddie Leann, your failed marriage will be so hilarious.

  14. DesertRose says:

    Not to stand up for Falcor, but there are times when one just can’t sing. Been there, done that. I sing in a group and when one of us is gone, people notice, but there are ties when it is smarter to rest. It’s much easier to claim illness than to say you have a scratchy throat and can’t hit your notes. Who knows though. Talking, laughing, yelling at Disneyland probably wouldn’t be good for throat issues either.

    • Rita says:

      This is a reoccuring theme for LeAnn who cancels more concerts than she gives. Don’t forget, she cancelled a concert with the Jacksonville orchestra where thousands of people were counting on her and 12 hours later she shows up at an LA Lakers basketball game screaming her lungs out and then proceeded to stalk Eddie at the bar with the paps in tow.

      Celine Dion had to cancel several shows in Vegas and simply said, “I can’t sing right now. I have to take a break. I cannot control my vocals like a professional has to in order to give the audience what they pay for.”

      (God, I hate myself for even mentioning a beautiful singer like Celine on a Rimes thread)

  15. Kym says:

    Check out @katedelcastillo to see what Eddie was up to over the weekend when she canceled her concerts, I think she did go to hospital but not for the flu but a panic attack over worrying about Eddie and Katie!

  16. cbear says:

    This is funny: a country music station calling her out on her fake “flu.” hahaha

    http://www.facebook.com/95wggc

  17. The Original Mia says:

    This title was my exact thought when I saw pictures of her hugged up with those little girls.

  18. Miss Marie says:

    Looks like Ed is putting on some weight!

  19. Eileen says:

    Plu-leeeeeze! Her pap-friend Mike Kamara or however you spell it actually RODE with her to this meet-n-greet so she could document every moment professionally. You know she made MORE from this deal selling those pics than she spent if she actually did buy the tickets.
    Nauseating.

  20. HotPockets says:

    Ok, this is one of the only celeb gossip sites I read, but can we please boycott Leanne? It’s the same story with her every time and the same bikini pictures. Same drama, same staged photo ops and twitter rants. She is so redundant. Unless her and Eddie divorce, there is nothing new to be said about her.

    • Lizzie says:

      Good idea boycott Leanne twit better for her music we don’t to listen to that bitch anymore

  21. Melissa says:

    Normally I would never comment negatively about a celeb doing something truly charitable whether I like them or not, but she didn’t pay for this, stayed about an hour and made sure to get tons of staged photos, all while patting herself on the back on Twitter. Who uses a child with a serious illness for their own publicity? LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian seem determined to dig their own PR graves don’t they? This should have been done quietly as it was supposed to be about the kid and she certainly didn’t need to be paraded around in front of the paps. LeAnn makes everything about her. Too bad it isn’t helping her sell any records. I didn’t think she could be any more repulsive but she just keeps showing me I am underestimating her.

  22. skuddles says:

    Ah yes, situational sickness… tends to strike washed up singers whose husbands suffer from the dreaded wandering dong syndrome. Got it.

  23. Kim says:

    She cant even do a good deed without letting everyone know and patting herself on the back. A little girls day was made today because of ME ME ME! She has self esteem issues.

  24. Juliette says:

    This is what they are saying about her “flu” & concert cancellation. It’s not just the “haters” that are seeing through her BS these days. She is a phony and a liar.

    “I’m gonna say this…towns like Bowling Green, KY are the places that made LeAnn Rimes and with her questionable life choices, which I’m not judging, but that do not line-up with traditional country music values, she should not be so willy nilly in her cancellation of a booked performance. Keeping you word is also a core value in country music and I know things happen, but this is obviously not one of those cases. So don’t come crying to us for more airplay LeAnn, cause I just don’t think you fit the demo any more -Greg”

    LMFAO!

  25. thetruthhurts says:

    I agree that LeAnn using this as a photo op is GROSS. But I have to ask, if she stayed home because she was sick or whatever, wouldn’t the same people trashing her now come on here and say, “OH! She let that poor little girl down by not going to Disney with her after she promised! She is horrible. She’s not really sick, how selfish LeAnn!!”

    No matter what, the girl can’t seem to win. People just don’t like her.

    • ohmy! says:

      The girl wasnt going to see LR, in fact LR had nothing to do with her wish. Her wish was to go to Disney. she would have went whether LR made her photo op or not.

      The only thing LR did to was retweet the girls wish to the charity. The trip was paid for by the Airlines and Disney. In fact LR spent less than an hour with her. She was only there, with her own photogs of course, to take these pics and make this out to be about her when really she had little to do with it. Im guessing the little girl really didnt even know who she was.

    • Annie B says:

      As ohmy! said, Leeann had not a thing to do with any of this. She retweeted a tweet and her “pal” Jonathan Jaxson (ex supposed PR rep for Kim Kardashian, threatened with a lawsuit by old Kris) jumped on it. Contacted the airline and Disney. Started tweeting about how Leeann is going with the family for a day of fun at Disney, with her bonus sons & Ed, fun FUN!

      Obviously Brandi pulled in on Leeann’s reins and said “whoa Nelly” on taking the kids out of school for a day of photo ops.

      Anyways, other than her PR “pal” glomming on to this PR opportunity, Leeanne had literally nothing to do with it. If she hadn’t brought a pap with her for the photo extravangza that was leaked to various websites within hours I MIGHT have cut her some slack. If the kids had said Leeanne is my idol, my dream is to meet her!!! it could have been charming. Her there made parents look kind of awkward and the kids were being pressured to “show gratitude” for the camera.

      I noticed Leeann signing the sweet little girls’ autograph books. There is another pic of a princess signing. I am sure the poor girls were wondering “Why is this strange lady wrecking our Princess book?!?! Why does she keep turning us to face a camera?”

    • cbear says:

      I don’t agree – If people really believed she had this 1-day flu, then I don’t think she’d get this backlash. I don’t think people care about the Disney thing, it’s just wrapped up in the people calling her out on her lies. It’s just too predictable that she has these sudden illnesses that coincidentally lead to her being able to rush home when Eddie’s not with her – it’s unprofessional and so rude to the people who pay money to see her.

      • thetruthhurts says:

        Even though I agree with everything & was already aware of what everyone just said about LeAnn, thanks CBear for being the only one who actually answered my original question.

  26. Juliette says:

    Just another in a long line of her lies. She also said that XFactor approached her to be a judge/mentor. Simon Cowell was interviewed yesterday on Fox and stated that “her people” had approached them. She’s (& her people) so dumb she even name dropped Nygel Lithgow, who btw has nothing to do with XFactor. They didn’t even check their facts before planting a false story.

    This and many other things might be part of the reason why is unliked. She lies (not very well) people see she lies and she loses whatever remaining credibility she has.

  27. lil ole me says:

    Someone somewhere said she looks as if she has rickets. I have to agree. Her legs from calf to ankle are AWKWARD.
    Pat on the back for the kid photo-op. It was a sweet thing to do, HOWEVER- why were the paps there? She doesn’t know the meaning of the words “humble” & “modest”

  28. Snowpea says:

    Ummmmm, LeAnn? Is that your iPhone there with you and Eddie?

    Oh my goodness, this girl has about as much substance as a fart. She’s full of hot air. Look at the side eye she’s giving the paps. Seriously, is she not MORTIFIED by her own actions every day? Just one of the things she’s done in her life would have me housebound, quivering under the doona for three days getting over the shame of it.

    Add the bonus mum palaver, the schmaltzy tattoos, the single white femaling of BG and the constant paparazzi calling…honestly, how DOES this girl not die of shame every day of her life? I mean, thats not normal, right?

    • brin says:

      Right. I’ve come to the conclusion that she has no shame and no conscience.

      • Linda says:

        Because she has no conscience is the reason I fear for those 2 boys. In the end, she could harm/hurt them and not think twice about it.

        This is far more serious than her acting out on her daily shenanigans/stupidities. When push comes to shove and Eddie leaves her, she is capable of causing physical harm as she is extremely vindictive.

    • Snowpea says:

      But Linda – what is actually WRONG with her? Are there any psychiatrists here who can diagnose what is her mental state?

      I mean, it’s just not normal for someone to carry on with this sort of behaviour and feel no remorse, or shame or embarrassment.

      I would have died by now if I had done just ONE of the things she gets up to ON A DAILY BASIS! Like, the copying of Brandi for instance. Just so mortifying.

      • Natasha says:

        @Snowpea

        I heard someone on here once say that they were almost certain she has NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder). Apparently they knew somone with this disorder who behaved in a very similar way to LeAnn. It seems likely – something is definitely ‘not right’ with her.

  29. Debra says:

    This child’s dream was to see Disneyland before she lost her sight… not to waste an hour of her special day with 2 famewhore homewreckers…she wanted to see Mickey Mouse, not a sleestak. And she probably wouldn’t appreciate being hit with all those nasty germs that sent a supposedly healthy woman to the ER,, deathly ill..
    Just Leann patting herself on the back again…

  30. Lkaye says:

    Totally agree. Her shoulders are so wide, she looks like a man with breasts

  31. Aurelie says:

    If you look at articles on the sites that she obviously pays such as eonline, Daily Mail, Just Jared, etc, she’s literally being credited with “making a child’s dream come true” and for making the whole thing happen almost single handed. She paid for nothing, was present for a whole hour just for the photo ops and left on her merry way. The kid never requested that she be present and probably had no clue who the boney woman in the platform heels and man who smelled like a brewery (sorry but he looks drunk most of the time lately)were. They latched onto this and tagged along for the chance of some good PR. It’s disgusting that she is trying to spin this thing to her advantage and had to document the whole thing to promote herself. Honestly, she really is as narcissistic and crazy as people have been saying she is. I’ve tried to give her the benefit of the doubt and tried not to judge too harshly, but reading those articles and the BS they are spewing on her behalf is just too much. I finally see the light about this woman with an obvious personality disorder and her out of work, lothario. Both of them are disgusting opportunists. Can they sink any lower?

    • brin says:

      She can always sink lower, since she has no shame! I agree with you, it’s like reading science fiction on some of those sites. She obviously pays them because you think “who are they talking about” since it bares no resemblance to her!

  32. Jennifer12 says:

    Let’s just hope this useless cow leaves Brandi and her kids alone and focuses her psychotic laser (taser?) on Eddie. He deserves every single thing he gets from her. Enjoy life with your famewhore ball and chain, who has to take endless photos with her fake-head-thrown-back-laugh while clutching her precious phone and clinging to his hand. You sold yourself to the highest (only) bidder, Eddie, so good luck. Or not.

  33. Mary says:

    Hahaha! Does Leann know they choose Brittney Spears for XFactor? Did she really thibk she was in her league? Did she really think WE think they asked her to be a judge? She wishes she was on RHOBH like beautiful Brandi.
    Your hillbilly career is over Leann!
