LeAnn Rimes’s leather capris & massive button problem: kind of cute or just terrible?

Here are some photos of LeAnn Rimes at an event at the House of Blues in LA to celebrate “NOH8 Day”. It’s a human rights cause, which fits because for better or for worse, LeAnn’s commitment to human/gay rights is solid. Shall we just talk about her outfit? The first thing that struck me was “Are those leather capris? Why are they bunching up like that in the crotch?” And then I saw the buttons. OMG. They’re not even functional buttons, I don’t think. They’re just ornamental buttons on a crazy vest and they are EVERYWHERE. WTF?

But… minus the Button Problem and looking at the outfit as a whole, I have to admit that LeAnn kind of pulls it off. The jacket is cute, the combination of leather capris with a tuxedo jacket is kind of awesome, and LeAnn’s hair has really improved so much. I’ll just say it – she looks almost cute here.

Meanwhile, LeAnn is going back into the studio to work on yet another country album. How did Lady and Gentlemen do? Poorly? Anyway, LeAnn wants to focus on “classic country” now, saying, “If this kind of country music was still played, this is all I would do. I find myself wanting to write this kind of music and maybe making a record that’s similar to the style, but my own material. Maybe we’re bringing it back! There’s a huge misconception about me, because of the crossover hits that I’ve had . . . but this is where my heart lies and always has.” She needs to make some money, I guess. She has to keep Eddie ensconced in the luxuries he’s grown accustomed to.

    If nothing else, her SHOES are a massive improvement over her recent choices (and, actually, are really cute).

    Outfit over all: not a total fail — BUT, she’s a narrow-hipped, broad-shouldered chick, that boxy jacket makes her look so top heavy, it ruins the otherwise cute “idea” of the whole ensemble for me…..

  2. Micki says:

    I guess the worst nightmare will be bangs trauma with a button problem…
    she looks surprisingly good here though

  3. Paloma says:

    I don’t know how these girls go without food. If I go too long, I get a headache.

    • Veruca says:

      It’s called cocaine.

      And I never noticed until she was actually sitting next to Brandi, just how bad the SWF copycat thing had become. I’m surprised she hasn’t had cheek implants or hair extensions yet (although I probably shouldn’t say that. It might give her more bad ideas, and we know how she loves to read these — Hi Leann!)

  4. SolitaryAngel says:

    She appears to be missing an accessory–where IS he, anyway?

  5. Victoria says:

    She has looked a lot worse but I refuse to give her credit since she is a skanky SWF.

  6. Debra says:

    on anyone else, this outfit might be cute, but Leann’s ugliness (inside) ruins it

    How many flops is she going to release before she realizes no one wants to listen to her has been yodeling????

  7. brin says:

    Shall we talk about how ironic it is that she’s at a “no hate” event? Bit hypocritcal.

    • Jezi says:

      Just as ironic and hypocritical as her profile pic when she had NOH8 on that. Funny when her and the closest people to her spew undeserved hate all the time.

  8. TheOriginalKitten says:

    She definitely looks better here, cute even. Glad to see the “wonky girls” are not out on display. She has to always wear her hair down and soft IMO-she’s sort of like Miley where her face is just too..I don’t know…harsh (for lack of a nicer term) to wear the hair slicked back. And to be fair, the hair-pulled-back look only looks good on the outrageously beautiful (which Miss Rimes is not). But yeah-I like this look on her.

  9. Emily says:

    Idk about anybody else, but her face looks extra tweaked here to me….

  10. JudyK says:

    She actually looks pretty here…love the outfit, and the shoes are perfect w/ it.

  11. bea says:

    The shiny lapels pick up the shine of the pants, so it looks good, pulled together. The button fiasco is another matter.

    But we all know she looks like human beef jerky underneath whatever get-up she has on.

  12. Cathy says:

    Meh. I don’t really care for the outfit, but I’ve seen her wear worse.

  13. Sapphire says:

    Face and hair are definitely improved. The capris-ugh. Wrong on the body shape, way too tight with the zipper gap. Vest hits in the wrong place. Someone has convinced her she looks like Goop and should dress the same.

  14. chia says:

    I don’t know, something about her face reminds me of Falkor from the Neverending Story.

  15. ladybert62 says:

    (1) The outfit is awful
    (2) Her hair is awful
    (3) But she seems less squinty-eyed than usual!

    • gg says:

      It’s all down to the eyeshadow on her browbone. If you leave that off, it makes those upper bags shine out and the eyes look squinty.

  16. stephanie says:

    horiffic. also YES to the Falkor comparison.

  17. irishserra says:

    Perfect example of how personality can influence perception on looks. I used to think this girl was cute, but I search these days and can’t find one attractive thing about her appearance.

    • Sapphire says:

      You know, you are right-I was trying to be objective

    • Happymom says:

      Ditto!

    • Lindsey says:

      That is so very true. Her hair is MUCH better when it is not pulled off of her face, the jacket and shoes are much better than her usual ensembles but the pants and weird button top, not so much. Her physique is a little odd and clothes don’t seem to hang on her properly and always look ill fitted for some reason. Regardless, her personality and behavior make any improvements in her fashion choices irrelevant because I just can’t get see beyond them. Is it me or are her chest pellets larger?

  18. only1shmoo says:

    My God, up until now I didn’t realize that L.R. ACTUALLY HAS EYES!!! So, as it turns out, she makes more than just googly-squints at her rented husband.

    To avoid sounding like a total bitch (even though i think this woman is a horrible person), I will say that her shoes look nice, how’s that?

  19. the cheetah says:

    I think its odd that she goes to noh8 events when she supports her record producer, stylist, and road manager among countless Twitter friends hating and writing hateful things about her bonus babies mother

  20. barbi333 says:

    The pictures taken from a distance make her look almost, barely, ok. Once the pictures are closer, she looks the same. What is up with the box shoulders, by the way?

  21. horizonte says:

    her eyes are open!!! wowwww

  22. Sandra says:

    She looks fab. Love it!

  23. Marjalane says:

    Really? You think her hair looks good?

  24. heylee says:

    Is anyone else thinking that she is channeling Aniston in this ensemble?

    Besides the hair, the earrings, and the weirdly puckered fly region – I love this outfit!

  25. NeNe says:

    I hate to say it, but this outfit is kind of cute. Just wish it was on someone else, because she uglies it up.

  26. Blue says:

    She looks pretty good here, considering how she usually looks. Love her shoes but I hate seeing people’s zippers.

  27. Rita says:

    “Cute” is not a word I apply to black leather on anyone and I see she spent all day working on the hair again.

    She’s just someone holding a bag. She does seem to have that mustache under control.

    • Jezi says:

      Either that or heavy foundation 😉

      • Rita says:

        Hi Honey,

        Just comparing the “stache” to BarbraAnelo1 twitt pic. Also, tell Ebony that her twitt avatar just cracks me up. Gawd, leAnn racing a horse is just funny.

      • Jezi says:

        Girl that Barb Angelo pic frightens me. LOL. I rarely discuss Leann’s physical appearance because her actions are the most unattractive thing about her. But Tia’s pic, well that one should be framed.

  28. bruno says:

    CB she uses NOH8 for pr purposes. The only thing she is committed to is herself. I don’t know what you’re looking at but, her hair is a mess and she will always be the grinch. As for the other missing piece of shit he’s probably trolling porn sites.

  29. marisa says:

    She is ugly, outfit & hair is a mess. Another album. Her prior albums have all been failures & she has no fan base. I heard her sing. Her voice is blah. I don’t get. Yodel is right. NoH8 my ass. She is a mean witch.

  30. Lauren says:

    Scraggly, desperate mess. Leann has to work to support Eddie..I wonder if she is paying his child support payments. Waiting to see if Eddie and LeAnn will get a “Reality show” to help pay the bills. She has terrible taste in men..her first husband was a bottom feeder, and so is Eddie.

    • Jezi says:

      Actually Dean put his career aspirations on hold for Leann. She likes constant companionship and wanted Dean by her side. He actually choreographed her dances in the videos and produced some as well. But this was all for Leann.

      • brin says:

        Hey Jezi!
        It’s great that Dean and Brandi have a fresh start and are doing well without the exes in their lives.

  31. Natasha says:

    Can I just say that LeAnn Rimes standing in front of a NOH8 sign is like Osama Bin Laden standing in front of…no, I won’t go there…

    *zips mouth*
    (or in this case, fingers)

  32. fabgrrl says:

    The hair is a mess, but yeah, she does look kind of …pretty-ish. If is wasn’t for her personality, her LeAnn-ness, etc., I wouldn’t really find her that unattractive.

  33. Havik says:

    Maybe it’s just because LeAnn is wearing it, but does anybody else think her outfit looks terribly budget?

    And on a secondary, more bitchy note, her expression absolutely reeks of smugness.

  34. Rita says:

    @Kaiser

    In response to your question concerning her last album “Lady and Gentlemen”. The first week of release sold 12,000 copies and to date has sold less than 30,000. If that’s not bad enough, LeAnn’s album was for sale the first week on Amazon for $5, or $3 with a coupon. In comparison, Miranda Lambert’s album released the same week sold 135,000 at a cost of $12 plus shipping and handling.

    So yeah, Le’s album stunk it up big time. Don’t forget that Vince Gill produced it. My dog could sell 12,000 records produced by Gill….as long as she had a box of snausages on tour.

    LeAnn’s record company is dumping her after this last album for which I’m sure LeAnn is paying all the production costs.

    • brin says:

      LOL Rita! Wonder how she’s gonna pay for that new car and vacations for Mr. Ed.

      • Rita says:

        Hi Sweetness,

        Didn’t know about the new car. She should watch The People’s Court or Judge Judy cause when the break up happens, the judge always rules that gifts stay with the cheater….the serial cheater, just for clarification.

  35. the other mel says:

    I like the shoe choice. It’s really a nice change to see someone wearing a shoe other than those mile high platform hooves everyone is wearing now. So over that look.

  36. why? says:

    Leann’s commiment to human/gay rights isn’t solid. She uses the “you should be able to marry/love whomever you want” to justify her affair with a married man. That is just plain selfish and cruel. It’s highly offensive to have someone like LR associated with the No8 campaign, when she spends so much time encouraging the hate towards BG and then pretending that she is a peacemaker despite the fact that she fuels the hate by encouraging DB, M, her roadmanager, and fans to attack BG.

    How odd that AFTER getting massive backlash for her and EC conduct on the sidelines of a soccer game, she shows up at a NO8 campaign as if this will erase what they did and continue to do.

    Whenever LR and EC get involved in charity or things like the No8campaign you have to always expect the worst. So don’t be shocked if after attending this event, LR and EC behavior gets very bad. With Trevor Live, LR started calling BG kids “my kids”. With the AGAs, LR engaged in the pdafest with EC at a child’s soccer game. Cookies for cancer, LR used as an opportunity to plaster BG and EC kids faces all over the internet because she was jealous of BG and son interaction at the soccer game and of course to draw attention to her “new” album.

    So now we have to ask, what pr stunt is LR going to pull next? Does she think that doing this “good deed” will make it okay to release staged photo-ops of EC and BG kids while they are in Aspen? Or much worse, she is going to stage yet another “happy family” shopping trip in Malibu?

    Why is Leann Rimes acting like this album she is now working on a new project? Remember she was supposed to release two albums in 2009, but they kept pushing back the release of L & G because of the backlash kept growing and for some odd reason people forgot about the other album. So it’s safe to say that LR was also using BG and EC kids to hype up this second album she is trying to release when she released all those staged photo-ops on Sat and Sun.

  37. why? says:

    Her choice of clothing looks like LR is Single White Femaling Jennifer Aniston. Did she catch EC looking at photos of JA or do LR handlers think that they can make LR likeable by associating her with women who are wellliked. JA was voted #1 on a most beautiful list, and now LR is emulating her style? The shoes are a MAJOR improvement, which means that her pr people must think that the public is stupid. Having LR dress like JA isn’t going to make people like her or forget how poorly she treats BG. Why does LR always try to be someone other than herself?

    Her hair still looks like BG and it looks like she lightened it. Did anyone see the previews of RHOBH for next week, LR hair looks like the same shade as BG in that preview. Seriously are EC and LR being allowed to preview the episodes of RHOBH?

  38. bagladey says:

    Leann is not pretty and she never seems to do anything but wear and change clothes, so why is she always in the tabloids?

  39. Mia says:

    Not in love with the outfit. Definitely not tragic though. A few tweaks and it could be killer. The top half needed to be a little more delicate to avoid the top heavy feeling of this.

  40. jen says:

    I thought the wall said “HO” on 1st glance.

  41. LavenderLava says:

    Funny how she has a cmmitment to Gay rights but cares nought for children’s rights or the rights of a mother. She is anti human rights

  42. why? says:

    Leann Rimes set up a staged photo-op with x17 of her and Liz out shopping, and this is precisely why people are so disgusted with LR. Because she involves herself with charity or things like the No8 campaign as a means to justify her bad behavior toward BG and those kids, promote her marriage to EC and convince us he isn’t cheating on her, and to go on her mega media blitzes where she sets up 2-3 staged photo-ops in a day or a photo-op each day of the week. Who else would use the No8 campaign to release photos of themselves shopping with EC mistress, I mean BFF? You would think that LR would have learned her lesson after what happened with the staged photo-ops from Sat and Sun and laid low, but once again she calls the paps because her handlers encourage the bad behavior by allowing her to associate with things like the No8 campaign as if they have the power to erase the mean and nasty things she does.

    LR looks sick in the “shopping” photos, she looks like Lindsey Lohan. She has on a ton of makeup and is dressed up, because she knew the paps would be there because she invited them. And she looks even skinner. On the red carpet she looks like she has gained her weight back, but in her “candid” staged photo-ops she looks like she hasn’t gained much weight at all. Are they padding LR clothes on the red carpet to make her look more fuller?

    How funny, since people pointed out that she was wearing the same sunglasses as BG, she is now wearing a different type.

    Cue the backlash. Who will LR blame when her current staged photo-op backfires?

  43. TeamGlanville says:

    I never comment on these things, out of laziness, but someone mentioned Jen Aniston. As my secret style icon, the first thing I noticed was she is totally trying to look like JA (who looks good in anything b/c she has a perfect body). LR’s man shoulders & body are alll wrong to to try to pull off a look like JA. I would wear that blazer, and it would look way better on me..b/c I don’t have man shoulders. just sayin. & maybe the shoes in summer. but whole look on LR= fail.

  44. truthful says:

    YUCK! with a EYEROLL!

  45. Cerulean says:

    She looks like a sci fi humanoid creature wrapped in leather and buttons. The crotch area is all sorts of wrong. It’s a distraction.
    She’s a step away from a horror flick.

  46. theaPie says:

    She’s been using more color on her face. More blusher and bronzer, and it looks good. Also, her hair soft and loose like that looks good as well.

  47. Criss says:

    How could she show her face at this event with her hatred toward Brandi?

  48. Abby says:

    Ugh – this girl is so homely. Make it go away.

  49. skilo says:

    I love the jacket, but the rest of the outfit and the skank wearing it can all go in the trash where they belong. Those pants are awful the fit is ruining any potential they might have had.

  50. macherie says:

    personally i think her hair looks dirty and limp, and the outfit is ick.

  51. brin says:

    Bogus mom has forced herself on the poor school kids once again by yodeling and reading in the boy’s classes.
    What did those poor kids do to deserve that?

    • Jezi says:

      I would say “overbearing” suits her appropriately. Bitch back off!!! I don’t understand why she can’t just sit on the sidelines and let Brandi and Eddie be the parents.

  52. why? says:

    Leann Rimes is on twitter tweeting to the person who harasses BG on twitter, about how she is singing at one child’s school and then reading at the other child’s school. Once again tweeting and exploiting the kids because she did a “good deed” by attending the NoH8 celebration. Since LR is all about stopping the H8, how come she is still tweeting about those kids and how come she didn’t just go to those school events without sending the paps a “WE ARE HERE” confirmation tweet? Or better yet how come LR didn’t just step back and let EC and BG parent THEIR kids? Oh and did LR invite BG to the event or even ask BG if she could sing at the kid’s school? LR attends the Noh8 celebration and now she thinks it’s okay to saturate the media with those kids faces or make more tweets about them again? This is precisely why people cringe when they see LR name associated with charity or the NoH8 campaign because we know her behavior towards BG and those kids is going to get worse.

    I sincerely hope that LR doesn’t invite the paps to those kids school today. If it was a KIDSDAY, why tweet about it, Leann? More like it was a LEANNRIMESDAY. EC is cheating on LR and LR has no Grammy nominations so she has to validate herself using a child.

  53. Sophie says:

    She looks good for once. Even the makeup is an improvement.

  54. JuliaDomna says:

    She actually looks pretty good. First time I’ve ever had the misfortune to say that, though.

  55. kudzuqueen says:

    I was just reading over some of LeAnn’s ridiculousness on her twitter page and something hit me..

    The passage said:
    @BaberLaura@DOBBIE1221 um they follow us out of our house. Hang all day. It doesn’t matter EVER

    I guess I couldn’t scroll up to see who said what to her because their tweets are private? But it sounded like she was referring to the paparazzi.

    I know she likes the attention herself, but who all is in on thinking that she wouldn’t be above calling the paparazzi to stalk out her house to help keep Eddie honest?

  56. why? says:

    Leann is such a liar and just as expected out comes the worst from her and EC. I wouldn’t put it past Leann to call the paps to get photos of them outside their house today or any time this week; afterall, LR is getting a lot of backlash for tipping off the paps on Sat and Sunday. So LR thinks that if she has x17, JJ, DM, GG/GC, People mag, or RO take photos of them outside of their house that it will once and for all convince people that she isn’t tipping off the paps?

    If the paps are following EC and LR from right outside of their house or are hanging outside of their house all day long like LR claims, how come we have hardly ever seen any photos of EC and LR house as they are leaving or entering the? The paps have no qualms about snapping photos of celebs homes (ie-Lindsay L, Britney S, etc…), so how does LR explain the fact that there are hardly any photos of them photographed coming/leaving their home?

    And once again how is it that EC manages to leave/enter their house by himself or walk around LA by himself without the paps hardly ever getting any photos of him? The paps are always sitting outside their home, yet the paps managed not to get any photos of EC the week that he, BG, and EC parents attended the school play? Do EC parents live with EC and LR? And yet we don’t get ANY photos of EC and LR driving to his parents home or spotted where his parents live? The paps are always following EC and LR, yet whenever BG attended the kid’s soccer games, they backed off and didn’t take any photos?

    We saw ONE shot of EC coming out of LR house and that was because LR wanted people to know that EC was spending the night at her house so she had the paps waiting for when he came out and ONE photo of LR outside her house because she had the police escort her home after she hit a parked car to get attention.

    Why is LR even whining about the paps, when she is constantly tweeting photos of the inside and outside of their home in the first place?

    This is what happens when LR is allowed to associate with events like the NoH8 celebration. Now she is endangering those kids lives by inviting the paps to their home.

  57. TXCinderella says:

    Eh, she looks okay. It’s her face that is wack.

  58. memphis says:

    Her stylist must be trying to create a ‘look’ for her, but he just isn’t very good at his job. She looks like a giant black rectangle.

  59. Jenn12 says:

    Forgetting how vile she is as a person, her sense of style plain old sucks. The shoes are fine, but not with this outfit. The shirt and the blazer together? Epic fail. The shoes call for a simple black dress. Capris need ballet flats or flat sandals. That shirt needs a garbage can, the blazer should follow and maybe LeAnn will take the final header.

  60. Jessa says:

    What is so interesting about the whole Leann Rimes “thing” is that the affair, marriage and disgusting after behavior is the best thing that could have ever happened to her. She was basically over and out, but by spreading her legs for and then stalking another woman’s husband and then playing “bonus mom’ and all of the passive aggressive attack’s etc, etc, etc, she has once again found herself in the public eye. I think that Leann has some sort of personality disorder that makes her crave attention. I don’t think she even cares what kind of attention it is. It isn’t like anyone is buying her “records”. Her last album bombed horribly. Her music career is over and she can’t act her way out of a wet paper bag, so for an attention monger like her, the notoriety from the fallout of her cheating and lack of remorse has to give her her fix.

  61. Rita says:

    Forgot to comment on the outfit….it looks like something Eddie would wear.

  62. JaneWonderfalls says:

    Okay I’m taking new anti-depressants so I’m trying to see if I can muster up something positive about her, well her hair actually looks cute, that’s it! I just can’t find anything positive to ever say about her. Her attitude and arrogance just kills every thing.

  63. why? says:

    Leann whines about how the paps are hanging outside of their home and ALWAYS following her and EC, and yet she posts a twitpic of BG and EC son at his school with his classmates? If she thinks that the paps hanging outside of their home was bad, then imagine how bad it’s going to be for the boys and their classmates and other parents when the paps are hanging outside their school each and every week simply because LEANN RIMES posted photos of the child’s school/classmates to twitter, with the intention of the media posting about it. LR is concerned about the paps being outside of their home, yet she isn’t concerned one bit about them being at the kid’s school? She always ends up contradicting herself. If LR name had been dropped from the NoH8 celebration, then those kids lives wouldn’t be in danger because their bonus mom has something to prove.

    Who is it that keeps inviting LR to these charity events or the NoH8 events? Because she was invited to the NoH8 event, LR thought that it was okay to exploit BG kids by broadcasting what she did at their schools today, invited the paps to camp outside their home to prove to us that she doesn’t tip off the paps, gave the paps “WE ARE HERE” confirmation tweets for her “candid” photos at the kid’s schools, released more staged photo-ops of her shopping, and disrespected BG even more.

      Hey You! Do you ever STFU? You seem so obsessed!

        Like.

      • Relli says:

        Ha I wondered who was going to say something first. Why?, does have some interesting insight, I like reading the comments but sometimes I am so confused by the initials i forget what’s going on by the end.

      • why? says:

        @Tetris

        No wonder you showed up and flipped out making that shut up and obsessed post. LR was gearing up to release a staged photo-op of her, EC, and EC son. I’m not sure if they are outside of his school or outside of EC/LR house. Leann set up the staged photo-op with x17 and x17 made sure to write a nice little fluff piece about LR performance for the school.

        Well now it’s even more obvious that LR is indeed reading what is being posted about her and EC and that these randomn posters who show up are really campLeann.

        LR attends the NoH8 campaign and now her and EC actions have gotten worse.

  64. Snowflake says:

    Don’t really know or care about Leanne’s or Brandi’s life, don’t know either of them, but I think outfit’s cute.And she looks pretty. and no, it’s not Leanne.

  65. dahlia1947 says:

    I like her strappy heels, and, and..that’s it. Can’t bring myself to give her another compliment. Thanks.

  66. Mtn Girl says:

    Is Leann wearing shoulder pads? To balance out the new(ish) boobs of course.

  67. brin says:

    Hey Leann, wasn’t Mason punished enough by your yodeling performance at school? Why are you making him watch your dumb Lifetime holiday movie (pre surgery era)?

  68. why? says:

    @the other mel

    Seeing as how x17 posted photos of EC and LR with his youngest son today and did a piece about how LR sung at the kid’s school, it all makes perfectly sense why you “like” and why Tetris is throwing a fit.

    I hit the nail on the head and someone didn’t like that.

    So the problem is that I hit the nail on the head.

    So rather than getting offended and sending Tetris here to write a “you are obsessed” post, how come LR just didn’t do the right thing and cancel the staged photo-op with EC and his son?

  69. why? says:

    @Relli

    Tetris is Jasperkitty, when jasperkitty posted the farewell post to me in the other thread, I suspected that she was going to show up in this thread with a different name pulling the same stunts. Every 2-3 weeks she shows up with a different name and singles out a person and writes a “you are too obsessed” post.

    Seeing as how LR set up a staged photo-op with x17 concerning the very topic/issue I commented on in my post, it makes perfectly sense why Tetris would be freaking out.

    Now who will LR and EC blame when they can’t bare the backlash from their latest staged photo-op. And if NOH8 hadn’t invited LR, LR would have gotten the message and not continued to exploit those kids or use charity as yet another means to promote her and EC.

  70. why? says:

    What was even more disgusting about the x17 staged photo-op that LR released today is that Leann had x17 write that the BG and EC son was LR and EC son.

    This is what they wrote: “LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian spent the afternoon with their four-year-old son … bringing holiday cheer to his classmates. Sounds like the Christmas spirit is alive and well!”

    • brin says:

      Sounds like they are just asking for negative comments. They want a reaction (just like Leann when she stages these photo ops).

      • why? says:

        Leann wants validation because she isn’t getting that validation from EC or her peers in the music/film industry. And you know it’s bad when a grown woman has to use children to make herself feel better, hence the real reason why she sung at the school and gave the presents to the other kids.

        According to LR, her mouthpieces, staffmembers, and DB, EC is a loving and supportive husband. He even looked worried when LR was sick and according to one of LR staffmembers that “proves” that EC is a good husband to LR and has changed his cheating ways. So if LR is getting all that loving from EC and EC is as incredible/supportive like LR and her staffmembers claim, why is LR constantly seeking validation from outside of their marriage? And the more she tweets about the kids and sets up the staged photo-ops with those kids the more she makes EC out to be a liar. Why would anyone believe that EC is being faithful to LR or loves her when he won’t even abide by his own words and keeps allowing his kids to be publicly exposed? The more LR tweets about the kids and the staged photo-ops, the more obvious it becomes that EC is still pining for BG and cheating on LR.

        It’s sad that charity organizations, NOH8, Trevor Live, and SUFK associate with LR and EC. With each and every charity red carpet event that LR walks or performs at, her and EC behavior towards BG and those kids gets worse and even more insensitive.

  71. why? says:

    The next chapter in LR “happy family” mega media blitz must be staged photo-ops at the grocery store with EC and the boys.

    Poor Leann, EC must be off with his mistress tonight because she is on twitter providing him with yet another alibi AGAIN and I’m sure she will post a twitpic because nothing says that EC is home with her like a twitpic of her and EC kissing, right? Supposedly EC is having smores with LR and the boys by the fire. So why tweet that? Leann, EC is sitting by the fire with someone, but we all know that it’s not you. So if the paps are ALWAYS following EC and LR, wouldn’t they take photos of EC all the time, but they only take photos of EC when he is by himself when we point out how odd it is that we don’t see him by himself. We see many celeb couples out and about without their partnets? But not EC.

    And LR just keeps getting worse, now she is bragging and gloating about how she and EC “won” and BG has to have the boys back to them on Christmas Day at the time that EC demanded in his threat to BG. Who wants to bet that LR and EC set up an exclusive interview with People mag on Christmas to celebrate when EC “proposed” to her and that’s why they really want those kids? This is precisely why all charity organizations should shun LR and EC because when they invite LR and EC to their events, look what happens. She thinks that their invitations means that they support what she and EC are doing to BG and those kids.

    Once again LR thinks that she can tweet about those kids because she has the right to share her happiness? Did some lawyer tell her that? Beware of any adult who uses a child for their own self-gratification.

  72. why? says:

    EC sold his kids out for a car on Sunday and then his youngest son and his classmates on Wednesday for a trip to Cabo. What a great dad!

    Leann is still pushing that the paps are following her and EC, so I guess she is setting up a defense as to why we will be seeing daily and mutiple shots of them in Cabo. I wish LR would take Liz with her to Cabo this time because the last time Liz was in Cabo with EC and LR for their honeymoon, the staged “EC loves me because…” photo-ops stopped.

    I hope that LR doesn’t attempt to fuel the “is she or is she not pregnant” talk by walking around in a bikini and sticking out her gut like she did for Trevor Live.

  73. why? says:

    This is what LR tweeted today: “they are my “bonus boys” and my happiness w/ them & their dad is mine to share. Hopefully, it’s looked at as they are being loved. There are too many people in this world who have negative thoughts, I choose to love & share happiness. It’s up to ptger’s on the way they CHOOSE to look at it. ”

    ………….
    LR latest tweet is precisely why charity organizations, NoH8, Maya Angelou, need to steer clear of EC and LR. LR walked a red carpet in the name of a “good deed” and her behavior towards BG and those kids gets worse day by day. Leann is wrong again. It’s not about how people choose to look at it, especially when the children’s mother asked LR to stop talking about the kids on twitter because she was providing TMI and being inappropriate, EC stated in court documents that he didn’t want his kids to experience ANY TYPE of public exposure and that the person who exposes them to the public is just doing it to get attention for herself, and of course LR stated that her family’s business is no one’s business and that she and EC put the kid’s first. NOTE to Leann Rimes: READ what EC stated in his court documents because his own words contradict your “I have a right to share my happiness” mentality.

    What stands out the most about LR tweet, is that once again it’s all about Leann. She is using a child to validate herself and her marriage, and why would that even be neccessary if LR is so happy with EC? Those kids are BG and EC, and LR tweets about those kids more than BG and EC put together. LR once again tries to erase the fact that BG is those kids mother. Why is LR so threatened by BG presence, if she is so happy and fulfilled with EC?

    Mine? Seriously? Is LR 1 yo? How is it that other HW stepmothers manage to live a happy life with their husbands and stepchildren without exploiting their stepchildren via a blog, tweets, staged photo-ops, or exclusives with People mag? Because the ones who are not putting it on display 24/7 and using the word “mine”/”my happiness” or tweeting “I have a right to share my happiness” are the ones who truly love their stepkids because they recognize that it’s not theirs or as LR put it “mine”.

    Who told LR that being EC wife gives her the right to do whatever she wants to and with those kids? According to EC own words in court documents it’s not yours, Leann. Because according to EC it’s about protecting his kids from the paps, gossip, tabloids, and press. How is EC protecting his kids when he allows Leann to tweet about them, which he knows will end up in a tab and plastered all over an internet?

    When people see Leann’s tweets, they don’t see love or happiness. They see EC trying to get back at BG for not taking him back by using LR and his kids as weapons against BG.

  74. why? says:

    Poor LR. Since the media wasn’t paying very much attention to LR because they were more focused on Britney Spears engagement and things like Kobe B divorce, what does LR do? She sets up a “Yoohoo, I’m over here, don’t forget about me, I will miss by bonus sons because I am going to Cabo with my incredible hubby” staged photo-op with one of her fab five mouthpieces. You can tell that her “I’m just buying a hat” photos are a set up because just like she does with all the rest of her staged photo-ops, LR tweeted a confirmation tweet to tell the paps where and when she would be for the day and she is posing like it was a photoshoot. I guess LR can add model to her resume now.

    CampLeann is taking preemptive measures for the negative feedback she/EC are going to receive when she bombards the media/internet with the Cabo/airport photos this week and next week. CampLeann is attempting to lessen the backlash/negative feedback on one of LR fab five mouthpieces by threatening to release IP addresses and then suing for cyberbullying. What a great plan Leann! Is that how she keeps EC affairs out of the press, she threatens legal action? Who is advising LR? Wouldn’t the better solution be to just make LR lay low, close the twitter account/blog, shut up, don’t release any staged photo-ops to her fab five mouthpieces(JJ, x17, DM, RO, People mag), and stop tipping off the paps?

  75. why? says:

    This is what Leann had one of her fab five mouthpieces include with her “Yoohoo, I’m over here, don’t forget about me, I will miss my bonus sons because I am going to Cabo with my incredible hubby” staged photo-op: “I’m w/ my hubby which makes me happy but we miss his babies they’re at moms,”

    ………….

    The things that stand out the most about this tweet:

    LR went out of her way to clarify that she is with EC while she is tweeting and that she is happy with EC. Which means EC wasn’t with her when she wrote that tweet and as usual she jumps on twitter to give him an alibi to cover up the fact that he is cheating on her and her marriage is falling apart. If she is happy with EC, why does she keep SWF BG or act like BG is a threat to her marriage as if EC still has feelings for BG?

    EC uses his kids as weapons against BG, so we know that EC doesn’t miss those boys. But then again LR has to put “We miss…” to cover up the fact that EC isn’t home with her.

    LR makes it sound like the kids are just visiting BG, like she isn’t a permanent person in their lives. If LR is happy with EC, why does LR go out of her way to attempt to erase BG? Notice how she put they’re and not their, her one last attempt to not acknowledge BG as their mother.

    Once again why is it all about LR? LR is sad? The kids are with their mother, shouldn’t LR be happy for the kids and not thinking about how she feels when they are not at her house? So why is LR trying to make those kids feel guilty for wanting to be with or spend time with their mother or when they are with their mother? The kids can’t even spend time with their mother without LR trying to take over. Let them have that time.

    Once again, why is a grown woman using a child to make herself feel better about herself? Because LR can’t get that love and support from EC, so she seeks it via his children.

    Don’t you love how LR also used the “missing my bonus sons” line as a means to draw more attention to her and EC vacation. She used this as a icebreaker so that she can talk about her vacation with EC and thus alert the paps where and when to meet her and EC at the airport/beach.

    Of course LR is “missing” the kids because without their faces, LR and EC get less attention from the media and press. She gets free clothing at the expense of those kids.

      It is now June as I’m posting this, (I like going back and reading the old LR stories I missed), so I don’t know if Why will ever read my comment, but I just want to say:

      FANTASTIC points, Why. Very thought provoking and insightful. I appreciate your posts.

  76. why? says:

    Let the backlash begin. EC and LR set up the first round of their mega media blitz, it was a “EC loves me because he holds my hand as we walk through LAX” today with GG. And as usual you can tell that LR set this one up because she sent a tweet confirmation telling everyone where and when to find them and she is dressed(it looks like the same brand that BG wears) like she is going to a party and not about to take a plane ride. EC and LR both look bad in these photos. LR sure does have an obsession with white dresses. It’s another single white female moment, well at least we know that LR and EC are watching RHOBH.

    LR is trying hard to make EC out to be a prize. She was going on about how he speaks Spanish. For a man who is supposedly going on a romantice vacation with his wife, EC looks miserable. Maybe LR should have invited Liz along for todays LAX plane ride.

    This is precisely why LR and EC should never ever be allowed to associate with NOH8, Movember, Trevor Live, AGAs, and SUFK because it results in more and more disrepect towards BG and her kids. And of course back to back staged photo-ops. So is this what these organizations had in mind when they invited LR and EC to walk the red carpet?

  77. why? says:

    Poor Leann. You can always tell what woman EC is lusting over or sleeping with based on who Leann is single white femaling at the moment. Leann tweeted that Eddie requested that she wear her hair straight, she tweeted this to show us that EC really does love her because he takes an interest in her looks, but in reality it just tells us that EC isn’t being faithful to LR. Now go back to LR staged photo-ops, who in those photos always wears her hair straight? Liz. Wow, so EC and LR are going on a romantic vacation to Cabo and all EC can think about is Liz? What an incredible husband.

  78. why? says:

    Poor Leann. She released yet another chapter of her Cabo mega media blitz, which strongly resembles LR and EC “whale watching/engagment” photos from last year.I guess LR had to step up her game since the airport photos with GSI and the twitpics she gave to x17 still weren’t drawing much attention from the media.

    LR is pushing the “EC loves me because…” angle really hard today, even going so far as to have several of her mouthpieces(JJ, DM, RO, GG) describe EC balcony kiss/pdafest as if it’s something right out of one of those romance novels(ie-hot/muy caliente/heatwave in Cabo). So now we are supposed to believe that EC loves LR and isn’t cheating on her because he kisses her for a very long time(according to DM/RO) and can’t keep his hands off of LR(ie-touching LR hips/abdomen/implants/and at times it looks like he is sticking his hand in her towel) while LR is wearing a skimpy bikini that highlights her surgical scars? The sad part: EC has a beer in his hand/right in front of him the entire time during this STAGED pdafest. Why does EC need an incentive to be loving or supportive towards LR if he is so in love with LR?

    LR is making sure that EVERY media outlet has these balcony makeout photos. I hope that the media call these two out on how contrived and staged the balcony photos are, instead of kissing their behind and telling them that it’s hot. And then EC just can’t figure out why people don’t want to watch anything he is in or why he has such a hard time keeping a job. Does Typer Perry think that these images of LR and EC in Cabo is a good thing for his new movie, especially when EC doesn’t have a job and is most likely telling a court he can’t pay his child support? This is what happens when LR and EC are allowed to associate with charity, red carpet event such as NOH8/Trevor Live/AGAs, and Movember.

  79. why? says:

    Poor Leann. So now she thinks that releasing back to back/daily staged photos of her and EC engaging in pda on a balcony/boat or involved in romantic moments like horse back riding or sailing on a yacht will convince people that EC loves her and isn’t cheating on her or using her for her money. And of course these daily staged photo-ops of LR and EC in Cabo were made possible by the fact that someone thought it was a good idea to allow them to associate with NOH8/Trevor Live/AGAs hosted by LR pals at NBC and Movember. So their attention seeking is just going to get worse. Since Heidi Jr and Spencer Jr are staging back to back photos in Cabo, image how it’s going to be when they go to Aspen with those kids. Please get those kids away from EC and LR ASAP. With all the attention seeking they have done in Cabo, why would a court system allow those kids around those two?

    The funny thing is that with each and every staged photo-op LR makes it even more obvious that EC is cheating on her and it’s worse than what we ever tought since she is making sure that every media outlet equate their make out sessions as love. What is so embrassing is the fact that several media outlets are falling for it. Didn’t they learn anything from Kris H and Kim K. Just because a celebs engage in “hot and steamy” make out sessions it does not equate to love/fidelity. Why won’t the media be honest with LR and EC and just call them out for the frauds that they truly are? In one of the yacht staged photo-ops they are doing the same poses from their honeymoon. That is so sad.

    Well one thing is for sure, 2012 is going to be even worse for LR and EC. The only thing Heidi Jr and Spencer Jr have going for them is the fact that they are paying more and more media outlets to kiss their behinds. But the public has had it with these two. Imagine LR surprise when her mega media Cabo blitz blows up in her face because she thinks that staging excessive pda photos with her cheating husband will convince people he is being faithful and loves her.
