Brandi Glanville tried light-colored contacts yesterday: terrifying or okay?

In the thumbnails of these photos, you can tell you’re looking at Brandi Glanville. But in close-ups? OMG. CB pointed out that it seems like Brandi is wearing colored contacts, which really throw her whole face off. She looks, quite frankly, demonic. But there are other issues too, right? Fillers, Botox, bad makeup application, perhaps a poorly applied bronzer. Yikes. These photos are from the ABCs Mother’s Day Luncheon yesterday.

Meanwhile, Brandi’s podcast is still making news. On Sunday’s podcast, Brandi confessed to “breaking in” to Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes’ home recently:

Brandi Glanville made a startling confession about her ex-husband Eddie Cibrian during her podcast on Sunday. The ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ star revealed she broke into the home he shares with his current wife (and former mistress) LeAnn Rimes!

“Actually I broke into his house yesterday,” the 42-year-old said. “But he gave me permission because I had to get my son’s moonsuit.”

It was her first time in their house, and she wasn’t exactly thrilled about what she saw — she was actually quite frustrated with all of it.

“I’m like, ‘This f—ker is living the life. I was pissed, but that’s a whole other story,” Brandi said. “My [ex] husband doesn’t work. He’s an actor, but 90 percent of Hollywood’s out of work, so he’s not working. So I fit the bill for everything with my children.”

In case you live in a bubble, Eddie cheated on Brandi with LeAnn after he met the country singer on set of their Lifetime movie ‘The Northern Lights’ in 2009. The now exes — who were married from 2001 until 2010 — have two children together, Mason Edward, 11, and Jake Austin, 7.

I’ve always thought Brandi plays a little fast and loose with the facts about what money she gets from Eddie for child support and alimony and how much of her own money she’s spending while crying poverty. Don’t get me wrong, I think Eddie and Brandi’s financial situation at the time of their divorce was pretty bad and I think Brandi had to learn the hard way how to be smarter about money. But I don’t think Eddie skimps on child support and of course LeAnn spent a ton of money on their home. That’s the whole reason Eddie married LeAnn! So she would spend her money on him.

    PUT THE BRONZER DOWN, Shiny.

    • mia girl says:

      And while you are at it, PUT THE MASCARA DOWN, too.

      • Kitten says:

        AND THE EYELINER AND THE AT-HOME HAIR DYE (per Mimif).

        Just throw everything out dammit, and start the f*ck over.

      • mia girl says:

        Yes Kitt!
        From the time I started reading about her on this site to now, she has made herself so much less attractive with all her beauty shenanigans! Even her style is less appealing. I vaguely recall she had decent street style.

    • mimif says:

      But…but it matches her brassy hair perfectly.

    • Alison says:

      Put the needle, bronzer, mascara, eyeliner and fake contacts down NOW! She’s such an attractive and striking woman before and without all of this warping of her natural assets. Who tells these omen they look good????

  2. Amy says:

    Thank you to Brandi for proving colored contacts make everyone looks terrifying. God I hate them if it’s not for something like cosplaying.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      Yeah, I hate them too. Eye color should be real, which is so hypocritical coming from me because I color my hair. But something about fake eye color really bothers me.

  3. skipper says:

    I don’t really like it. Maybe b/c the color is so drastically different from her regular eye color. A friend of mine did this once. He went from a dark brown to light blue and I couldn’t even look at him. It kind of freaked me out a bit.

    • Christin says:

      If she had done a tinted amber lens, it might not be as shocking a contrast. I don’t think I’ve ever seen full-blown colored lenses that look natural. Tinted lenses (which are more for enhancement) are just slightly more believable.

  4. aims says:

    Freaky.

  5. Sunnyside says:

    Cue LeAnn changing her eye color in 3…2…1…

    • Christin says:

      And getting her light roots (per her previous claims) darkened to a brassy hue.

  6. EM says:

    Too many fillers in her face.

  7. Jay says:

    I’ve never seen color contacts look good on anyone. Ever.

    • Maya says:

      I think they work if you go with a similar colour. I have hazel eyes and sometimes wear green contacts (my eyes look green in some situations anyways) and it’s not a huge change. Going a lot lighter or a lot darker typically just looks unnatural.

  8. insomniac says:

    Colored contacts really don’t work well for people with dark brown eyes — they make us look like bugs.

  9. briargal says:

    Does this mean that we will soon be seeing “she who shall not be named” wearing them too?? Gotta SWF, y’all.

    I wish celebs would just forget about all the botox and fillers that make them look so artificial and go with the natural look. Age gracefully and naturally.

    • heidi says:

      Why would Leann need to?! She already has pretty natural blue eyes. Maybe Brandi thinks Eddie will return if she colors her eyes blue like Leann’s

      • briargal says:

        Nah–Edie (gonadless Eddie) doesn’t give a rip about what color any of his side pieces have. He has probably tried every color known to man. Blue is just one of the many and surely blue will not be the last.

      • Christin says:

        I think his favorite is probably green (as in the color of US currency).

      • briargal says:

        @Christin–You are so right about Edie’s favorite color. As long as he doesn’t have to do much to earn it. You know–just show up once in a while for a pap appearance and he’s lovin’ the green.

      • Why? says:

        Why would Eddie care about Leann’s blue eyes when he didn’t even care enough about Leann to buy her a gift for their 4 year wedding anniversary and only allowed Leann to go to the Marvel event with him because she is taking his friends on another vacation this weekend? Eddie wants Brandi, it’s why Leann has spent this whole month tweeting to people she knows harass Brandi.

      • Byte Me says:

        What eyes? You can hardly see her eyes.

  10. Kiddo says:

    It’s close to midnight and something evil’s lurking
    In the dark
    Under the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops
    Your heart
    You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before
    You make it
    You start to freeze as horror looks you right between
    The eyes
    You’re paralyzed

    • Cindy says:

      “Your paralyzed……..” By brandi’s brand new eyes! Yikes! The color is sort of pretty but she looks so different,almost unrecognizable.

    • Cat says:

      Yea it’s Brandy making a 2ND visit to Leanne & Eddies house after they are asleep & she’s changed her contacts from grey to black & she’s got Kim with her this time & they both have been drinking .Leanne wakes up & writes that poem on her chalkboard that Eddie made her lol . That’s the terror she felt seeing them in her home without paparottzi there, well she wakes up & it was all a bad dream, but maybe not , 2 bottles of Brandys wine are on the table lol

  11. Emy says:

    Horror. That’s what it is.

  12. roxy750 says:

    Ya know, her and Miley have alot in common with constantly wanting attention but saying they don’t want attention but getting attention.

  13. Mzizkrizten says:

    The light eyes are shocking. Maybe they would suit her if that was her natural look but because they’re not normal they look odd. Some people just look better with brown eyes.
    I read both her books and it gave me a new appreciation of her. She got the shaft and had to get past a huge betrayal and life upheaval in the public eye while being forced to see her ex and his new life paraded in her face on TV, in magazines and online. Like, whoa. I respect her for overcoming that. And I like her bold personality.

  14. Debi says:

    Why are her eyebrows so close to her eyelids? It’s either too much botox or a bad makeup job. What is that hole in her cheek? Also her one side of her lip looks like the joker. I’m no beauty expert but the makeup mixed with too much botox is aging her. Also while I’m being critical for no apparent reason I think she should go either way more blonder or way more darker the dishwater blonde color does nothing for her. The first season of housewives she looked really pretty. It’s not too late stop with the fillers!

    • heidi says:

      “the hole in the cheek….” that looks to me like she had a surgical face tightening from mouth corners to ears

    • Byte Me says:

      It looks like a chicken pox scar. I have one on my forehead.

  15. Cinderella says:

    Light eyes do not work for her at all.

  16. Jayna says:

    A Mother’s Day luncheon where Brandi was receiving some kind of award for breast cancer work (maybe for her money raised from Celebrity Apprentice possibly?), as did Shonda Rhimes receive an award and was there. And Brandi appears in that tacky dress with that whole tacky opening in the middle she likes so much and her boobs smooshed together on full display. Sad. Couldn’t she pull together a classy outfit at least for that event instead of focused on showing her boobs? Even Sydney Poitier was there. Guess not.

    The makeup is horrible. Contacts frightening. Filler not helping but down a little.

    • Jayna says:

      I read the article wrong. Not Shondra from Grey’s Anatomy. It was Chandra from Grey’s Anatomy who also received an award.

  17. someone says:

    The weird smooshy boob cleavage in the middle of that dress is hideous!

  18. bettyrose says:

    Forget the eyes, I can’t get passed the fillers or whatever that is going on in her cheeks.

  19. embertine says:

    I quite like them. True grey eyes are very rare, so I can see why she’d be attracted to the idea. I love my dark brown eyes but I wouldn’t mind changing them up to grey just to see what it would look like (answer: creepy).

  20. briargal says:

    C’mon Brandy. Your eyes are beautiful without the fake lenses. Take them off.

  21. R says:

    She looks like one of the Wayne’s brothers from that 90’s movie “White Chicks”

  22. Susan says:

    The contact color is all wrong for her skin tone and makeup. If she sticks with (grey or light green?) contacts, change the liner, lashes and shadow to a brown tone, lose the foundation shine and lighten or lose the blush. She is really aging and dating herself.

    I suppose Eddie with take back his friend house keys now that she’s added snooping to her unfiltered drinking and blogging.

    • briargal says:

      She wasn’t snooping–just getting something for her son with Edie’s permission! Read the article.

  23. Pandy says:

    Her snark on the ex is beyond tiresome. If it wasn’t for the ex, we wouldn’t have been inflicted with Brandi.

  24. Jayna says:

    She receives some child support, not a fortune, but a thousand dollars a month. She doesn’t fit the bill for everything. The kids are with her half the month. The kids live with her two weeks out of the month and live with Eddie two weeks out of the month where he and LeAnn — okay, just LeAnn lol, pays for everything for the children.

    • SleepyJane says:

      Exactly. So weird to me that she is complaining that she has to pay for her kids when they are with her; even though she gets 1k a month for her 2 weeks. I would feel empowered, not bitter.

  25. Patricia says:

    You know things are going badly when you are making Leann look attractive by comparison.
    She’s so gross anymore. And did she really have to share her feelings on how Leann and Eddie live? Why fuel that fire? Oh right… Because attention.

  26. Mandy says:

    OMG, all I can think of when I see these pics are- Possesed Marlina from Days of Our Lives!

  27. Suzanne says:

    Fake hair, fake lips, fake cheekbones, fake teeth, fake nails, fake boobs, fake eyelashes, fake tan, fake eye color, fake hair color…and a rejuvenated vagina. What’s next? Oh I know…get the fugly bunions removed AND the nostrils fixed since those two flaws NEED fixing then you’ll be closer to perfect than EVER!

  28. DEB says:

    Lovely colour but I’m afraid it doesn’t suit her. You’ll see Leanne trying this before long, too, lol 😀 Betcha money!! *flashes a $20.00 bill*

  29. Pegasus says:

    Ive always found color contacts super creepy, even creepier than awful plastic surgery. Eyes are the window to the soul, and should never be messed with (unless its Halloween or something). Just all around bad for business.

  30. ANNABANANA says:

    She looks like a marionette.

  31. Grace says:

    OMG, those eyes just highlight her awful injections and fillers. SCARY!!!

  32. kitty-bye says:

    Kick me, uneven nose holes 😛 Is everything tweaked?

  33. Anony says:

    Her face actually looks plastic in these photos. Like actual, shiny plastic. It also looks like her face could open in the middle like a ventriloquist dummy would. WHAT HAS SHE DONE TO HER FACE?!?!

  34. Tastykakes says:

    I don’t understand the hate for “brassy” hair. It looks to me here like she was aiming for a golden reddish lowlight. I prefer warmer blondes like this, especially on a warmer skin tone. It’s the bleach blonde too cool tones that look like shit on most (but not all of course, some can make it work.) I think her hair looks nice here! They contacts on the other hand, I think she went a bit too light. Maybe a much darker blue would be less alien?

  35. RdyfrmycloseupmrDvlle says:

    The difference from when she began on RHOBH to now is amazing. Both in her looks and personality. At this point, I can’t stand to listen to her speak for even 2 seconds and I can TOTALLY sympathize as to why her husband left skid marks. She is a disgusting wacko as well as drunk, and I used to defend her and hate on Leann!!!!
    She is entering JOKER territory here. Wow. she has officially lost her looks, her gigs are going to dry up. sad that women like her in hollywood refuse to get old with dignity, not that she was ever dignified. She’s a scary type of woman.
