LeAnn Rimes paps herself in Malibu, shills for a job on ‘The X-Factor’

Here are some new photos of LeAnn Rimes in Malibu yesterday, in what I can only assume was a prearranged paparazzi photo shoot, just like she admitted (to Chelsea Handler) she often sets up. I know LeAnn isn’t the most self-aware person, so even when I think she looks like hell in a set of candid photos, I’m sure she thinks she looks great. My point? LeAnn is obviously dressed up in these photos – there’s no question in my mind that LeAnn called some photographers and told them that she would be shopping at a certain time, and then she put together this outfit. And you know what? It’s not a bad outfit. I would probably like it more if I thought LeAnn just pulled something together at the last minute. But I bet she spent an hour on this “casual” look.

So you can imagine how much time she spends preparing for a red carpet. Our Lady of Oblivious Famewhores walked the red carpet two nights ago for the Hollywood Domino Gala. I’m kind of glad we didn’t have the photos – you can see them here. Prepare yourselves. There’s quite a bit of bony chest plate and wonky bolt-on action going on in those photos. The dress is Tom Ford, by the way. I can’t imagine Mr. Ford is happy that LeAnn is stuffing her lopsided bolt-ons into his dresses.

In other LeAnn news, you know how her music career is at death’s door? Well, she’s wants everyone to know that she’s totally open to being a judge on The X-Factor. Several weeks ago, Simon Cowell went on a firing spree and now there are several open positions on the American X-Factor. For your consideration, Simon, how about some LeAnn?

The latest name thrown in the ring for an X Factor judges spot: Singer LeAnn Rimes.

Sources say Rimes is interested in joining the Fox reality hit, with one source adding that she’s met with Factor co-producer FremantleMedia North America about the gig.

X Factor chief Simon Cowell is seeking to fill the judges panel spots vacated by Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger before the second season starts production later this year. Sources say he’ll most likely hire two female talents to join himself and music producer L.A. Reid for a gender-balanced panel.

Cowell has not made firm offers for the posts, while the list of candidates continue to shift and official outlets continue to decline comment. But Rimes could make sense on a few levels for X Factor. First, she would add country music expertise, like Blake Shelton provides for NBC’s The Voice. That could also boost the show’s ratings since country music award shows have been one of the few TV genres to have successfully grown their audience in recent years. Rimes also knows what it’s like to compete in a TV talent competition since she first gained national attention when she was eight years old by becoming a finalist on Star Search in 1991. Plus, Rimes’ personal life, marriage to Eddie Cibrian, and weight issues — while polarizing — have also drawn plenty of headlines, which would spur press coverage of the show.

Rimes performed a tearful tribute at a concert last week to Whitney Houston, who Cowell considered for an X Factor gig before her death on Feb. 11.

Another name recently floating about for the Factor judges panel: X Factor UK judge Kelly Rowland. The British press have reported yesterday Rowland is quitting the UK series to “focus on her solo career in the U.S,” though sources say none of the UK spots have been decided yet. And the former Destiny’s Child star recently declared she’d be interested in switching to the U.S. version. “It would be awesome to be a judge over here for X Factor,” she told CNN. “I really enjoyed my time over in the UK being a judge.”

Other names circulating for X Factor posts include singers ranging from Vanessa Hudgens to Britney Spears.

[From Entertainment Weekly]

From what I can see, Simon hasn’t said whether LeAnn is really in the running. I have to admit… it would be a career coup for her. Even though The X-Factor’s ratings for the first season weren’t that great, Simon is being given leeway to remake the show, and a lot of people think it might be a hit eventually. Would LeAnn help or hinder a struggling show?

    I would absolutely not watch X Factor is she were on it. She can sing I will give her that but I find her so annoying and hard to look at.

    There are way better things to watch if she were on it. So no… Take a look at some of the comments out there regarding this.

    Leann is not well liked at all so I can’t image her being on X-factor would give it any kind of boost.

    • charity says:

      I still say that if she had a little green makeup on, she could pass for the GRINCH. and as we all know her heart is 6 sizes too small. Ya think she was considering those small boys when she was meeting their father in cheap motels and him pulling up in his car with kids car seats in the back what a twosome

      • beclove says:

        That is so sad. ) : She needs to just go away. Get off twitter, shut up, and go away and take her “prize” with her.

  2. Kimberly says:

    I don’t watch that show, so why the hell not? Hire Leanne! It would be nice to see the weirdo getting work after a string of failures in music!!!!

    she has her husband’S accustomed lifestyle and his child support checks to think of 🙂

    • Carolyn says:

      If Mel B (scary Spice) can be a judge on the Australian X-Factor, Leanne can be on the US one. She only had one hit though. At least she can sing. Mel seems like a nice person but seriously, she did it for the money. Very bizarre seeing someone from such a mfg girlpop (sorry, Girl Power!) group give singing advice. At least the Spicies put the work in to maintain it for a few years. J-Lo on US Idol is no different. Her voice is mfg in a studio, she’s never properly toured. What cred has she to mentor people about singing?

  3. Petunia says:

    What does LeAnn have going for her? She’s not that well known, is she? I think of her as a country music has-been of the 90’s. She’s small potatoes. Not a catch at all. Not glamorous either, as most of the X Factor judges are. Just very, very “meh.” Also, with all of her negative publicity, I doubt many people would watch it for her. And finally, she would become even MORE insufferable if they put her on the show. I, for one, don’t want to hear her braying all day and all night about her new, fantastic gig. Seriously, I would PAY Simon Cowell to keep this from happening. The woman is utterly insufferable.

    As for Kelly Rowland – I doubt it. She screwed the English version by refusing to show up after she had a fight with one of the other judges. Extremely unprofessional of her. The show had to scramble to replace her while she played “sick.” I seriously doubt that Cowell has kept her name in his book of contenders.

  4. brin says:

    I lovE your Leann posts, Kaiser, you are the best. “Our Lady of Oblivious Famewhores” is pure gold.
    I think that Simon Cowell would want big names like Mariah, Janet Jackson, Britney Spears for X Factor.
    If he ever produces a show called “Squint Factor”, Leann is a shoe(hoof)-in.

    • Jennifer12 says:

      Our Lady of PERPETUAL Oblivious Famewhores.

      • DrM says:

        LOL ^ Kaiser I love you…and Jen this embellishment is pure gold…back to Leann…can I just say I do NOT like this outfit…at all. Sorry Kaiser, it looks badly put together…particularly the pink bag and just looks unfortunate all around…so much money, so little taste.

        And did anyone else look the pics on the Daily Mail that Kaiser linked to? OMG. Just EWWWWWW….bony chest plate is right…and I love how the DM says her tan looks “healthy” BAHAHA

      • Jennifer12 says:

        It’s too stylist for a casual store run. The jewelry, the topknot clearly done by a hair stylist, the heels, the jacket and the earrings are the worst part. It’s like she’s stuck between a red carpet kind of look and pretending to be casual. Oh, wait. At any rate, Nicole Richie (who I’m not a fan of) did it better- with flip flops and quick, casual twist. The most jewelry she should have on are hoop earrings and a wedding ring.

  5. Marjalane says:

    I’ve never seen the Xfactor, but I did see Leann judge on some country version of Star Search, and my, but Miss Leann thinks she’s just about the savviest recording artist on earth, donchaknow.

    I’d love to see Simon slap her down. (verbally of course)

    • Floridaseaturtle says:

      I would have at all liked if she joined the X Factor, until you mentioned the inevetible smack downage. Ok, well, that makes me feel a little better about the possibility (remote, I hope). I miss Paula already. I thought her and Simon were gold together.

  6. NerdMomma says:

    Wouldn’t it be nice if this girl had a real job and something to do? And when Paula Abdul got started on American Idol, she was a has-been as well. Leann’s endless bony bikini photos are super boring at this point. Yet I oddly do not want her to go away. I continue to enjoy stories about both Leann and Brandi Glanville, so I hope they both find productive things to do!

  7. Jezi says:

    I don’t watch the show but Simon would be an idiot to bring her on. People don’t buy her music nor do they watch her lifetime and CMT movies. So it would be career suicide for him to bring her on. I saw Wendy Williams and Latoya Jackson was on and I have to admit she’s adorable. They need a likable person who has music experience.

    • Zooyork says:

      Interesting you brought up Latoya Jackson, I think she would be great, she’s very sweet and entertaining and surprisingly smart. I watched the season of Celebrity Apprentice on which Latoya was a contestant. She really pleasantly surprised me. People picked on her really bad, for no reason. And she was sweet, classy and strong in spite of it. And best of all, (for me) she was pretty smart. She was my favourite contestant. I’m glad to see someone comment something positive about her. I would like to see more of Latoya, (certainly more than I would like to see LeAnn’s nostrils.)

  8. Jayna says:

    I like the outfit. Her boobs look fine in it. Now, the red carpet outfit, don’t get me started. So try-hardy. She isn’t J-Lo. a popstar, to pull that outfit off.

    Everyone and their brother is trying to become judges now. With JLO making 16 million a year and Christina getting 10 million a year, it is a coveted spot these days. She has no shot. Simon is up against the wall, wanting to ensure be gets this panel right, like The Voice did. LeAnn isn’t big enough. Although, he said he is picking two co-hosts this time. He might consider her for that.

  9. Agnes says:

    i love the maxi dress she’s wearing, as much as i hate to admit that i like something she has on. haha

  10. cmc says:

    She has a great voice and she’s a dumba** that we all love to hate on…I say give her the job! It worked with Christina Aguilera on the Voice!

  11. brin says:

    It looks like she washed and wiped her car with her dress.

  12. Orange Cone says:

    she’s got a strong face for sure o_O

  13. paola says:

    Ok, along with everything else, she has a HUGE shoe problem.She has the worst taste in shoes i’ve ever witnessed. I’m speechless

  14. Maria says:

    you know what?.. I actually feel sorry for her. Not because she is average looking at best. Most people are..I feel badly because she is married to a VERY hot guy…and once the honeymoon phase wanes…I question if he will be able to stay faithful to someone who isn’t as hot as most of the girls in Hollywood are. I shouldn’t be negative, and trash on him, since this means I think he has no integrity or character..and just because he did it to his other wife, it doesn’t always mean he’ll do it again….but men are highly visual..Leanne is just not attractive….and I kind of predict her heart eventually will get broken.

    • Julie says:

      they are both cheaters so i cant feel for her.

      the cheating also has nothing to do with looks but more with the opportunity and if someone is faithful or not. eddie is not.

      A faithful guy wont hit on Mila Kunis if she lays naked in his bed. A cheating guy will cheat on Emma Watson with LeAnn Rhimes.
      or think of arnold schwarzenegger. the woman he had a child with is not exactly the kind of woman he could easily have with his money and fame.

      there are actually studies that prove that guys that cheat care more about another vagina than how the woman around that vagina looks like. (whereas women cheat with better looking guys or of higher status)

  15. Baylor says:

    LeAnn also really thought that she would get a role in the Spiderman movie with Kristen Dunst ( instead of Kristin), a role in the new Les Miserables movie, and a role in one of the 50s/60s sitcoms. We all know how that turned out.

    Also, because it can’t be said enough, you got to love LeAnn’s constant name dropping of other artists and always calling people “dear close friends,” yet no one acknowledges her on twitter, name drops her, or even talk about her. They don’t go to her parties, invite her to theirs, or attend each others weddings. This has been happening since even before Dean came into the picture.

    Also, LeAnn was spouting off on twitter that God has been answering alot of prayers lately. Wonder if that means she is pregnant and/or got an offer for Xfactor or some movie. Guess we will have to wait and see.

  16. Beatriz says:

    Dear lord, I clicked on the link with the photos of her in the Tom Ford dress and completely regret it now, those implants arghhh!!

  17. gag says:

    They could call it X Falcor.

  18. Jennifer12 says:

    I think she’s trying to remake her image. Suddenly, she’s not posing with the boys as much, unless I’m missing something. I think she wants people to like her more and to get some work. Funny that Eddie isn’t trying to get a job. If she’s criticized for a bikini, she suddenly stops, but now is endlessly posing in clothing that exposes her chest. The cut out dress on Ellen, the Tom Ford dress, this maxi dress, the shirt unbuttoned to the navel, the exposed bra under the mesh top- does she really think she’s not completely obvious? I mean you have to hand it to her, she clearly thinks she looks great and she thinks her machinations are unnoticed and helping her career. That level of denial isn’t easy to achieve.

    • Jayna says:

      Watch any of her videos to know that she has been dressing sexy for a very long time, especially in all of her videos, in her underwear, braless long before Eddie came into the picture. But her boob job seems to make her play into that kind of dressing even more now.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elk6NXBHjBg&feature=related

      • Baylor says:

        LeAnn did a couple of “sexy” music videos and photoshoots when she was trying to break into pop music shortly after marrying Dean. She also started really working out around that time. However, that “sexy pop singer” thing didn’t work out and we didn’t see much of that anymore. Especially, not in her out and about pics. She often wore flip-flops, flats, and tennis shoes. She was mostly always reasonably covered up. Dean once said that Leann was very modest/shy about her body/nudity, etc.

        It wasn’t until Eddie that she got super thin, got a boob job, wearing super high heels, and dressing “sexy” constantly.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        No, I’ve never watched her videos. But I remember hearing about her singing in a bikini on a reality show. Was she with Eddie then? It just seems that since she’s received backlash for acting as though Brandi’s kids are hers, she’s backed off on that and pushing the sexpot envelope again.

    • Cirque28 says:

      Jen, you claim Eddie’s not trying to get a job??? He is doing the preliminary brainstorming which is essential to any job hunt. It’s the most difficult part! It involves going on vacation, drinking beer, and watching television all day (aka RESEARCH).

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Cirque! 🙂 Maybe LeAnn just takes shots of him lying in bed all day and got someone to hire him for a bedsheet job. Lying around all day does take a certain talent. “Okay, Eddie, in the next shot, you will unwrap the towel and fling it casually over your rear. That’s a wrap!”

      • Cirque28 says:

        Poor Ediot. Bedsheet jobs can be thirsty, thirsty work.

  19. Jennifer says:

    Leann Rimes would not be a draw for the X-factor because she has no credibility (just look at how delusional and dishonest she is). Hardly anyone even likes her.

    There are so many more talented musicians out there who have both credibility and likeability. Good country artists who come to mind are Shania Twain, Reba McIntyre, Faith Hill. Non-country artists who come to mind are Vanessa Williams, Mariah Carey, Beyonce.

    • LeeLoo says:

      Shania would be amazing on the X-Factor and I bet she would totally do it. While Shania has had her issues, she is at least humble unlike bitchy delusion monster LeAnn.

  20. Lonnie says:

    I want nothing more than for LeAnn to take her cat-face and awful boob job and just fade into obscurity … but her constant girl drama lights up my life a little.

  21. Jayna says:

    Janet Jackson and Britney really want it. Britney is too bland. He is in a desperate situation having fired three people and the other shows having casts that really have strong personalities and chemistry, so needs to get it right this time. Janet is probably a top contender, but she is too quiet maybe. I think Melanie Brown would be amazing. Tremendous personality. But he didn’t act like he was bringing anyone British in.

    He needs people that somehow the younger audience will like too. Reba, Faith Hill, Vanessa I don’t see happening. Somjeone more hip is a must.

  22. Baylor says:

    surprise, surprise…

    Leann is in pain yet again, according to twitter. Talking about a kidney stone now.. sigh. Anything for attention. Here are some of her most recent tweets in no particular order that makes me wonder:

    “Anybody ever have a kidney stone?! Happy Saturday to me. I’m so beyond disappointed. I’m laid up in bed, can’t move 🙁 morning to you all”

    “I’m in pain so that part isn’t so lucky”

    “God sure is answering a lot of prayers right now!”

    “I mean really! I’m in shock right now at all that’s happening that’s amazing!”

    When a fan said it’s similar to the pain of childbirth (kidney stone pain), she said:

    “well, then I guess I’ll get to find out what it’s like. I like to be prepared that way! :)”

  23. skilo says:

    I always turn the channel when Leann comes on even if she’s only going to be in something for a few minutes it’s a few minutes too long for me. Bitch grates on every last one of my nerves.

  24. Jennifer12 says:

    The thing is? Simon Cowell has a brain and takes talent seriously. Britney would be great for the entertainment/peformer component. But you need someone who can really sing. I don’t care for Christina’s antics, but she can really sing. You want people with actual talent. Jennifer Lopez is a great actress and dancer, but a barely average singer. Someone like Marc Anthony, who can truly sing, would be great on a show like this. They need real talent. LeAnn *is* a good singer, but her personality is so off that it is asking for trouble to hire her. They need someone who takes the job seriously, isn’t looking to put others down needlessly, and is a true judge of talent. In other words, they need Simon Jr. times two or three.

  25. Dani says:

    Did anyone else notice how bad Mischa Barton looked at the Hollywood Domino Gala? (link in story) Ugh!

  26. Franny says:

    I wouldn’t hate that red carpet dress if it wasn’t so low cut and disgusting. It was actually a cute shape on her, and her makeup looks nice….things everyone is overlooking since her boobs are trying to escape their surgeried location. Did no one tell this girl to play up her assets and downplay her problem areas? Or does she think her chest plate is pretty?

  27. skuddles says:

    LeAnn, advice… lose the topknot. For some reason it makes me want to stick a bridle on you.

  28. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    I thought she was ragging on Brandi for appearing on a reality show. Now she wants to be on one?

  29. Jennifer12 says:

    ^This!

  30. hatekyle says:

    i don’t think simon is that crazy to get her for x-factor. that would be the end of x factor.

  31. LeeLoo says:

    Has anyone explained to LeAnn that the X-Factor is trying to increase their ratings not kill them off entirely?

    She would be no good on the X-Factor. She is no longer a family friendly image. She can’t even sell a country album anymore due to her bitchy self-absorbed attitude. Besides, I don’t even understand why she would want to risk going on that show because that would mean more time away from Eddie which would mean more opportunities for him to cheat on her.

    • Jayna says:

      You can’t be serious? Lots of country music people have cheated and are married to each other. They weren’t ostracized. Besides the internet crazies following her every move, most don’t know about her nuttiness and stalking. None of my friends do, nor even my oh-so country relatives back in Georgia. Only me, who follows gossip sites. The majority only know she cheated and people tend to forgive these days, especially because she has been in their lives since she was 15. She has been on the Country Music Christmas special, presented at the awards show, done a movie on the Country Music channel, sung Give on some humanitarian show, etc, since being with Eddie, so the country music industry hasn’t turned their back on her.

      The reason he won’t pick her is she’s not higher profile in the industry anymore and most people haven’t been that aware of her for seven years or so. And to me, she looks bad a good portion of the time anymore (too thin, gaunt face, too tan in the face which makes her look harder). She used to be very cute girl three to five years ago, cute figure, cute personality. These days not so much, and Simon is all about looks.

      Simon put Howard Stern on America’s Got Talent to huge uproar. He could care less. LeAnn would get a ripple of complaints compared to Stern. So that’s not stopping Simon if he thought she was right for the show. I see him picking someone more just onto the scene like Miranda Lambert or Kelly Pickler (American Idol) with more hype and recognition from the younger fans if he was going country. In fact, I would absolutely love Kelly on there. She’s so adorable and has been through the process.

      • LeeLoo says:

        Jayna, I never said her cheating was the reason she is no longer family friendly. The American public could care less. No, but she outs herself as being a delusional self-absorbed bitch on her own twitter. People who don’t follow gossip sites follow that. Plus everyone has an inkling of what she has been up to in the past 5 years and no one has anything positive to say about her. It may not be Celebitchy negative but it is still negative.

        I think if Simon wanted to pick someone from country music he would definitely pick a Kelly Pickler or ideally a Shania Twain. While Shania hasn’t been as active she is still remembered and loved in the country music world.

    • lil ole me says:

      Maybe she could ask if Eddie could Co- Host the show? She probably pushes Eddie on ppl trying to get him jobs. Kinda like I love Kathy Griffin, but she always pushes her boring Mother on us- STOP trying to make Maggie happen.
      Also, Eddie will just end up resenting Leann in the end. She has KILLED his career. I mean, his MODEL wife is seen on TV more than he is!
      Seems like ALL FOCUS is on her career at this time (but she is the bread winner)

  32. hatekyle says:

    it’s not the X-mistress factor!

  33. Dee Cee says:

    She’s gotta pay the rent, put aside for vacations, massive expenses to keep herself thin and willowy.. for the dictator hubby.. while she struggle stay sexy party girl chic.. insane and she is normally dependable.. a hard worker, unfortunately she has new problems with a contrary persona she must develop and get the public to rally behind her…. that is she is promoting herself as a utterly desirable beauty queen while married to the love of her life.. who cares for her just the way she is..? You want world beauty admiration while.., you are married, you don’t have to pimp yourself out in public to make yourself attractive to him, for people judge him by the way you look and act.. right? Wrong.. She should have taken the lyrics to Lesley Gore’s song.. and dump him.. show some dignity.. now. You don’t own me, I’m not just one of your many toys
    You don’t own me, don’t say I can’t go with other boys .. um?

    And don’t tell me what to do
    And don’t tell me what to say
    And please, when I go out with you
    Don’t put me on display, ’cause

    You don’t own me, don’t try to change me in any way
    You don’t own me, don’t tie me down ’cause I’d never stay

    Oh, I don’t tell you what to say
    I don’t tell you what to do
    So just let me be myself
    That’s all I ask of you

    I’m young and I love to be young

    • Lolie says:

      Now I’ve got the end scene of The 1st Wives Club playing on loop with Goldie, Bette and Diane dancing down the street singing in their robes.

  34. hateonit. says:

    this will probably sound hilarious but I clicked on the pic of her and my phone froze. I literally was upset it got stuck on her face. I almost threw my phone and broke it cuz I was like noooooo ewwwww lol

  35. hatekyle says:

    maybe she should wait just in case bravo puts up The Real Homewreckers of BH

  36. theoriginallucy says:

    Congress should pass a law forbiding LR to go out in public with a topknot…too much face…yuck!

  37. maya says:

    “judge” people on some “reality show”. What happened to her so called cardinal rules about “not judging people” and “not doing reality shows”?

  38. Maya says:

    Feral.

  39. Cel says:

    In the first photo she looks like she wet herself and is holding the dress away the avoid the wet touching her! She would be a nightmare on x factor, constantly talking about herself rather than the contestants, and I imagine twitter would explode with her every minute updates.

  40. Rita says:

    I have a paint tarp that looks just like smock that and her boobs look like a tennis ball stuffed in the bottom of a nylon stocking with several runs in it.

  41. lettylynton says:

    I think she looks good. She’s settling in to her style, and I would love to ransack her shoe closet! I think she would do great on X-Factor.

  42. Samster says:

    She truly has the most unfortunate face. That hairstyle is to be avoided UNLESS your face is cute because it really emphasizes your face above all else. I’m not saying she’s always ugly….but she’s ugly here. Losing so much weight has really aged her and took away the semi-cuteness she once had.

  43. Jilli says:

    Rimes’ presence on the show would likely help. She is controversial and people would be curious how she and the other judges interact. She does have real talent and would probably be forthright in her assessment of the competitors.

  44. geenie says:

    I bet Simon didn’t expect The Voice to come-out of left field and be such a success. Paula just didn’t cut the mustard this time around. In my opinion, Simon will need a heavy-hitting celebrity to catch the attention of viewers and I don’t think LeAnn has what it takes to get the ratings.

    • Lexi says:

      Simon is pathetic. He does the same what he did last year. He makes hype around X-floptor and more hype and more more more but in the end there was/is/will be big nothing. This format is simply old and people don’t care.

  45. BIMM says:

    I think LeAnn chose that top for the “Domino Gala” to make a statement as to how far apart her left and right parties are in this political season!

  46. Meanchick says:

    This look sucks. What’s with the pink purse? As for the X Factor, Simon seems to have a ‘type’ when it comes to women and Squinty does not come close. I’m sure she would draw viewers, temporarily, but she’s not close to what Simon is looking for.I’d be open to seeing Bobbi Kristina. She’s a singer, sang backup for her Mom and THAT wold pull in viewers!

  47. G's Mama says:

    Hmmmm….isn’t her dress the exact same one Brandi wore on the Hawaii episode of RHBH just in different color? Pretty sure it’s the same one by designer Michelle Jonas. I guess the copying continues…

    • cbear says:

      Yes. Same dress, different color. Camille also had on a similar dress that same Hawaii episode, with the round peekaboo opening. They looked really good in them, unlike LR.

  48. dorothy says:

    I love that her and her hubby are having to hawk for jobs….they are both unemployable.

    Yuck I don’t want the home wrecker LeAnne2face to be in Xfactor she’s washed up
    & her glory days are up – We need more like classy ladies like Taylor Swift or Carrie Underwood to bring the country music up to the fans standard who have more talent than this self absorb bitch
    LeAnne2face can go back to the hole & spread her legs more often to the useless Ediot Cibrian

    I absolutely love the X-Factor and would seriously stop watching it if they hired her as a judge. She is beyond annoying and to desperate for attention. If she would have just married Eddie and kept her mouth shut, she wouldn’t be so universily disliked. Instead she insisted on flaunting her adulterous relationship, fake boobs and everything else…every second of the day. Whatever credibility Eddie had, as far as I am concerned he lost it when he married her.

    Holy crap! That Tom Ford dress is the link is awesome but she looks like a washed out pigeon in it. Does she own a mirror? Who told her that her bony bird chest with its weird hanging folds looked ok in that? My Lord woman, get thee to a new plastic surgeon to fix that mess! By the way, your boobs should both reside in the same zip code.

      OMG she is so creepy.
      LR was never into dresses and heels before, except for awards and stuff. She was always in tennis shoes and casual clothes out and about. You’re gonna tell me that now that she’s trying to be a fashionista, she just happens to have, completely coincidentally, the same choices in clothes, purses, bikinis and shoes that Brandi has?? C’MON LR…stop making it so obvious.

      I don’t get why Leann copies Brandi, Leann always comes off looking terrible compared to Brandi.

      • lil ole me says:

        CHEESE AND CRACKERS!!! Leann Rimes REALLY is out of her focking mind. I’m sure Brandi called her all sorts of bad names when she caught Eddie cheating and Leann kept stalking him. Most women would do the same. So, Leann’s copycat obsession w/ Brandi is her way of telling Brandi “See, I’m not ugly, I can be just as good as you!”
        My friends ex-husband’s gf does this crap to her (although in a much milder tone). When he was caught cheating the jump off would call MY FRIEND & taunt her. So my friend would be all like “WTF ever you ugly bitch!” And she is homely… Esp compared to my friend. DEFINITE DOWNGRADE & she knows it in the back of her head. But, it really did a number on this girl & started to mess w/her mind I think. All his friends tell us his jump off tries to imitate my friend (his ex), even wears the same perfume now.
        I assume this is EXACTLY what happened w/Leann & why she SWFs Brandi. IMO Brandi had every right to call her bad names & insult her when she was stalking her husband. What woman wouldn’t do the same? But it’s honestly done a number on Leann who is ALREADY INSECURE & I mean DAYUM, Brandi is gorgeous. Wouldn’t want her as my husband’s ex!

    • whatthewhat says:

      jezi, you are way too concerned about Leann Rimes…if her copy of Brandi Glanville’s look is creepy, your constant comments about her are more so. Do you pick and choose who you diss for cheating? Paul Newman and his wife? Angelina and Brad? Jennifer Aniston and her new boyfriend? The list really goes on and on, yet you seemed interested in Leann and Eddie…what is your deal? Do you not have a life other than Leann, Brandi, and Eddie? Do you have children? A job? A spouse? A significant other of any kind? Hobbies?

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Come on, that’s unfair and not nice. Jezi posts on other threads and not just here. It shouldn’t matter to you what her concerns are. I never see her rag on other people.

      • sian says:

        Jezi is apparently a personal friend of Brandi’s so it stands to reason she would be interested. And if you think the problem with Rimes is just cheating (it long passed that ages ago) then you really have no idea at all what this is all about. Its about Rimes’ treatment of Brandi. It is not about the affair, it stopped being about that a long time ago. Your post shows you have absolutely no idea why people who know Brandi are upset at Rimes. Its not the affair.

      • Jezi says:

        Its ok ladies, every time I get one of these types of comments on here I know how much I’ve touched a nerve and how much I’ve pissed off Leann. Cheers! 😉

      • whatevs says:

        I agree. Jezi is way too concerned with LeAnn and LOVES to tell everyone how she is “friends” with Brandi. What? You met her in person all of two times? You are an internet friend, just like LeAnn has her little “internet” friends like Amjean & Stace, ASU. Do you think in her real life, either of these women really care about you? Get out of your dilusions. In the big picture, and most likely when Brandi gets even more popular, she’s gonna drop you like a pancake.

      • Jezi says:

        Ok whatevs, whatever you say. LOL. You are very concerned with me? I think that says a whole lot don’t you?

      • Lizzie says:

        By the way whatvs Leanne doesn’t make the world go round but another wash up star already delusioned so sad that fans like you would have to put up with her crap guess what she doesn’t F$&$$ CARE she just want your money & for her to live off from suckers like you

  53. Kiyoshigirl says:

    The controversy over her is exactly the reason Simon Cowell would like someone like her on the show. He could do worse. Believe it or not, LeAnn is still a well respected country singer. She is appreciated in Nashville and other places where country music rules. Perhaps she should start her own country version of American Idol or other such competition shows?

    I donno, I just don’t hate on her like most. She doesn’t bother me one way or the other. I like Brandi, but she can obviously fight her own battles and doesn’t need me getting up in arms about their situation.

    • sian says:

      Sorry but Rimes has all but lost her standing in Nashville. Nashville ran her out of town because of what she did. Add the fact that virtually no one in Nashville or anyone else is buying her last couple of albums (I believe last one sold a mere 27 thousand world wide??). She and her career is over. Once you lose the respect of Nashville, you’ve lost everything.

      • Baylor says:

        That wasn’t all due to the affair though. That started happening after she tried to leave country and go pop. This dissing has been a long time coming.

  54. Baylor says:

    I will add one more off topic thing. LOL!

    I’m not exactly loving Dean and his, all that much either. Yes, he kept her grounded to an extent. However, I think he bought a bit into her crazy too though. I remember when they were moving from LA to Nashville the first time around. Leann hadn’t been in mags or getting attention in a while. However, they said (both repeated it at different times)that it was due to the paps and fans always being around and how they once saw a picture of them shopping for groceries on the front cover of a magazine. I remember thinking WTF? You guys aren’t on front covers of mags. Not even a little corner on the top. The pic was tiny and buried somewhere.

    Also, shortly after he married LeAnn he made a post about how he was auditioning for movies/tv and to look out for him soon. Of course, he was never in anything but her videos. It just sounds like the kind of expectant/delusional talk that LeAnn does about HER being in major tv shows/movies.

    Lastly, Dean and LeAnn vacationed alot too. He made that little comment on twitter once about “some people always vactioning” but he sure wasn’t complaining when married to her. It’s like now him and/or his family are saying that she’s ugly, is addicted to twitter, vacations too much, calls the paps, and has always been a stuck-up delusional bitch. However, no one said anything or complianed when they were benefitting from her and her money.

    Not to mention Dean denying Brandi in public at first, is still close to Darrell, rarely if ever stands up for Brandi, and still says “nice” things about LeAnn.

    Yeah, not such a fan of Dean.

  55. Lizzie says:

    Shame shame on LeAnne Rimes she’s got a good thing going for her till she wreck for Ediot Cibrian loser what the hell does she have to offer as a judge? Her power star status is slipping Hope Simon has better sense of hiring someone than her maybe Madonna Lady Gaga

  56. MELANIE says:

    No way would I watch. I feel so strongly on the matter. She is a vile woman, ugly on the inside and outside. Freemantle would be foolish to take a chance on hiring this vile woman whom the public gas such hatred for after the dicey first season. LeAnn in then I’m not watching period……………

  57. Kaitlin says:

    Hateonit that’s hilarious but not surprising. Her face has that effect on people. I like to think of LeAnn as the modern day medusa. Although it would be hard to look into her eyes as they are so damn squinty. She has a face that only a mother could love. X Factor will lose even more viewers if she bagged it. Poor Ed has to wake up to that ugly mess every morning. Haha I wonder if he knocks back a few when sleeping with it.
