LeAnn Rimes cheers on Eddie Cibrian at the Toyota Pro-Celebrity charity race

This weekend, the Toyota Pro-Celebrity (Grand Prix?) race is being held in Long Beach. The big “gets” of the event? Not Adrien Brody (poor d-bag). It was LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian! Eddie was part of the charity racing event, and LeAnn got to sing the National Anthem. Incidentally, that Kate Del Castillo woman was there too – some of you seem to think that Eddie might have a crush on Kate, or that they are even having an affair or something. I don’t know – I just thought I would mention that she was at the event too. I’m honestly finding it difficult to hate on Eddie here. It was for charity, and he likes fast cars (and loose women). His participation was just… there. Meh. But I do love how LeAnn made it all about HER!! And look at what she’s wearing – will someone tell her that no one finds her bony chest plate sexy?

Spectators scrambled for cover today as heavy rain and thunder storms drenched the Toyota Grand Prix. But that didn’t stop LeAnn Rimes from turning up to play pit babe and cheer on husband Eddie Cibrian. The 29-year-old singer is also set to open the ceremonies in Long Beach, California this weekend when she sings the national anthem.

‘It’s raining sideways in Long Beach! Wow, hopefully it let’s up before the qualifying race!!!!’ she tweeted. ‘Love watching him race! I’m a proud wife!!!!’

Wearing coral coloured jeans and a black leather jacket, the Grammy winner stayed bundled up against the wind and rain. Other drivers participating in the race, which is the world’s longest-running and most prestigious celebrity racing event, included Oscar-winning actor Adrien Brody, Mexican TV star Kate del Castillo, reality star Brody Jenner and comedian Adam Corolla.

‘These celebrity types ain’t so bad at this racing thing!!! #TPCR,’ LeAnn tweeted.

The celebrity drivers all received on-the-track training to prepare for the race which benefited children in need. Toyota annually donates $5,000 to Racing for Kids on behalf of each participant and another $5,000 to the winning racer’s charity of choice. Toyota has donated more than $2 million to the Racing for Kids organization since 1991, on behalf of the race and its participants.

Later in the day steady rain all but canceled the one-hour practice session for professional Grand Prix drivers. IndyCar Champion Dario Franchitti, who is married to actress Ashley Judd, drove one lap around the 1.97-mile course on the city’s seaside streets, then pulled his car in for the day. Scott Dixon, his teammate, also attempted a lap but hit a large patch of standing water, spun and crashed lightly into the wall. No other drivers went out on the 11-turn course.

One more practice is scheduled Saturday morning before the series holds qualifying later in the day to set the field for Sunday’s race.

[From The Mail]

LeAnn obsessively tweeted about the whole thing yesterday, and I’m expecting more today, so if you’re into that kind of thing, just keep your eye on LeAnn’s Twitter. Also: she seems to have sung the National Anthem with her sunglasses on…? I don’t care if the sun is in your eyes, take off your sunglasses for the National Anthem.

    Eddie is never more than “just there, meh”, especially when he’s on an acting set and forget the “charitable” aspects to the event.

    If cameras were not allowed, Eddie and LeAnn wouldn’t even have been “just there, meh”.

  2. Blue says:

    Can it really be called a celebrity race if there is only ONE actual celebrity there. She actually does look half decent but i wish she would put her chest away. So not sexy.

  3. simba says:

    I think it is rude and disrespectful to wear a shirt like that and take pictures with the military.

    It was yet another obvious attempt for LR to look sexy as she knew the other women racing would look incredible in fire suits. And again, another FAIL.

    This is really just sad. I think I feel sorry for her?!

    Snap me out of it!

  4. Annie says:

    I at first read this as Leann Rimes CHEATS on Eddie at the Toyota pro-celebrity car race and I was thinking I didn’t realize even Leann was *quite* such a shameless ho. LOL

  5. Jackie says:

    this guy really likes his women rather ugly looking.

    i guess he wants to be the pretty one in his relationships.

  6. jano1981 says:

    Those jeans aren’t coral colored. Did she change outfits?
    Her boobs must hang out in her armpits. Its looks weird that it looks like she has a completely flat chest.
    There is a word that comes to mind when I see a picture of them. SMARMY!

    • Blue says:

      holy smokes! I totally forgot she had implants. How sad to spend $$ buying boobs and they are so badly done they hang out in your pits and make you look flat. Maybe she should wear a bra.

    • marie says:

      haha, you said it for me.. maybe the repo men came and took her boobs back..

    • Veronica says:

      Yeah, first thing I noticed… Boob implants but no sign of them anywhere! YOu gotta know your surgeon did a bad job when you can still see an expanse of ribcage with a low cut shirt. I’d want my money back.

  7. Miss Lafleur says:

    Didn’t she get breast implants? Where the hell are they?

  8. cr says:

    What a strange image she must have of her self when she can look in the mirror and think that shirt is attractive.

  9. dorothy says:

    They are just beyond repulsive.

  10. Cathy says:

    Yuck, she looks awful. She does nothing for that shirt. I do like that jacket though. To bad it’s her wearing it.

  11. Jazzmin says:

    Leann thought Eddie was going to come in first place, but he did not! ha ha ha! (that’s how deep her delusion runs folks) FYI: if your face looks like a Who from Whoville and your body is built like a prepubescent 14 year old boy, wearing a jacket with fluffy shoulder pads is not a good idea Mrs. Leann Grinch “who stole Christmas” Rimes.

  12. char says:

    He came in 16th out 0f 19, thats just how GOOD he is. as I have said ,he might have done better without Leann squeezed into the seat with him, bet he can’t take a leak without her standing outside the bathroom door waiting for him to come out. Maybe he shoulf try climbing out the window Hi Ho, Rita ,big wave

    • Rita says:

      Waving back to you honey.

      I’m not a fashionista but are LeAnn’s bell-bottoms back in style or did she see an old picture of Brandi wearing a pair?

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        Rita! You are making me defend her. Eewwww
        Flares and bells are in jeans right now, along with a higher waist.
        Wide cut jeans also make you look thin.
        *this is why I have waayyyy too many jeans*

    • Rita says:

      @theoriginaltiffany

      Thanks for the fashion update, sweetie. Our TV’s been on the blink for a time and my People Magazine ain’t been delivered for a month cause the rain we had down here washed out the lane to our ranch….okay, farm.

      I suppose I could look around the internet for fashion tips but I rely on Kaiser for that and she ain’t mentioned no flared bell-bottoms….go figure.

      • KellyinSeattle says:

        I have to disagree; yes, high waisted is in, but bell bottoms were in for a little while and then faded away…..

  13. Franny says:

    I honestly feel uncomfortable looking at those pictures of her. It would be weird if a man wears a shirt like this, but with a chick, I just feel grossed out. Wear a bra, button up, knock it off.

  14. Courtney says:

    Idiots it’s the annual Longbeach Toyota Grand Prix which many celebrities who drive race cars as a hobby have competed in in the past. two examples being James Garner & Paul Newman neither of whom would’ve been offened by what Leann wore to the race. Mind you Newman was a world war II veteran a 3rd class radio operator due to the fact that he was color blind

    • Rita says:

      So glad you come to visit us on occasion, Courtney. I always love your comments.

      I remember Newman driving in this event. Gosh, he looked so cool but then he also raced professionally…Cool Hand Luke to the max.

    • Franny says:

      Insult………Paul Newman………..mind you……..no punctuation.

    • Candyland says:

      Seems rude to insult the writers of the site you visit. And Lenn’s shirt is tacky and busted.

    • flp says:

      James Garner. Paul Newman. Eddie Something? LMAO.

      Bitter much?

    • Leticia says:

      Courtney! Paul Newman was the most handsome man ever, wasn’t he?

      • anti-icon says:

        Paul Newman was soooooo beautiful on the cover of some magazine in late 70s that I proudly displayed in my high school locker and held all boys and men to his handsome standard — those blue eyes!!!!

  15. Jennifer says:

    So. Not. Attractive.

  16. lettylynton says:

    It’s good to see charities getting help they deserve. I was confused with the coral jeans description, too, but I absolutely love the jeans she is wearing in these pictures!

  18. lil ole me says:

    I want someone ANYONE to tell me where this trick’s cleavage is??? Did it go into hiding along with her morals?? Leann, this is proof that EVERYONE (including the Dr that gave you those implants) dislikes you. This is also PROOF to me that she asked exactly for Brandi’s size implant & it doesn’t work for her chest width.
    After my reconstruction surgery, my bff went to her plastic $urgeon and asked for my size implants (600cc’s)- he told her that it wouldn’t look natural because she was a smaller girl (chest width, hips etc). But she wanted EXACTLY what I got, and now it looks totally wrong on her. I also had to get them big to help stretch out my skin from my previous surgery- however she wouldn’t listen to her Dr. Now she has jacked up implants- just like Leann. But at least she realizes this and is getting hers redone high profile, smaller implant to fit her body.
    Leann- you look SO BAD IN THAT BLOUSE!

  19. Life of Brian says:

    She looks like a little monkey, always hanging on him. We get it girl- you are his WIFE. Leann, you got him, now keep him. NOBODY ELSE WANTS THE DUDE.

  20. Original Lucy says:

    Wow..Eddie really is a slick piece of s@#t! He would have fallen off the face of celebrity radar, if he hadn’t cheated with and married LR…I think he will stay with her only long enough for LR to birth out his “retirement” baby…then cheat on/and dump her crazy ass, and be set for life. I just hope he realizes just how bad she will make his life when this goes down (and that poor child, dear God)…well, it sure will make for some fun gossip!

    • Candyland says:

      I was just thinkin she’s gonna go bonkers on him if (when) he’s cheating. All that rage she tosess at Brandi? Guess who’ll get it next, lol!

  21. Ellen says:

    They look strangely alike in that first picture: the squinty eyes, inane grin..it’s weird.

    By the way LeAnn, it’s “lets up” not “let’s up” and that shirt looks hideous on you.

  22. Candyland says:

    Take your sunglasses off AND don’t let your tattas hang out when singing the National Anthem.

  23. LeeLoo says:

    I really want to go up to LeAnn and tell her “I thought plastic surgery was supposed to make you look beautiful, not uglier.” And then I want to walk away.

  24. Snowangel says:

    Can’t help it, but I have always thought she was cute, problem here is the extreme vanity that seems to go along with it. She needs to look up the word demure in the dictionary.

  25. Lady D says:

    LR has more of a manly chest than EC!! Sooo not sexy compared to the other females that raced. She is one ugly horse with a manly face and chest.

  26. HannahF says:

    I read the LeAnn posts for the LeAnn vs. Brandi comments. The back and forth is always quite entertaining. As a Long Beacher I have comments of my own today.

    The LB Toyota Grand Prix is an Indy car race that runs through streets in downtown LB. The Indy car race is the main event but they have other races all weekend such as drifting. The pro-celebrity race is always Saturday morning. They race in souped up Toyota sedans. The pros are NOT Indy race car drivers. As for the celebs-I usually recognize a few and have not heard of the rest. They do get some big names though. (Note to Courtney–over the years, Paul Newman raced in LB but in the main race not the celeb race.)

    On to the good stuff–every year the celeb drivers visit kids who are long term patients at Long Beach Memorial Hospital. I know the official Toyota photographer and see the pics of the visits. It’s always interesting to see who connects with the kids. LeAnn tagged along with the drivers for the visit which I thought was odd. (Btw, Taylor Dayne is singing the national anthem for the main race today.) Here’s a surprise for you guys—Eddie was really good with the kids. A lot of these kids probably had no clue who he was but he played with them and there was no mistaking the joy on their faces.

    • Baylor says:

      Oh, I have no doubt that Eddie was good with the kids. He is an actor afterall and he probably enjoys any moment he gets to look away from Rimes and interact with anyone else. Even if just for a few milliseconds with some kids. Of course LeAnn went, afterall if Kate went too then she can’t leave him alone.

  27. hatekyle says:

    LR should race in the Kentucky Derby!

  28. kells-bells says:

    That’s the only shirt should could find to wear??? REALLY? And she wonders why people think she’s a slutbag.

  29. Cam S says:

    I post on the justjared site and the Leann fans that post there are… well lets just say they are less than articulate. All her fans defend her by comparing her to the first wife, even if the post has nothing to do with Brandi. If I were Leann, I think I’d be a bit ashamed to have such backwoods, fans. They say things like “You guys are just jealous!” – yeah right- of what? Her awful boob job and cheating husband? Leann’s fans make her look even CRAZIER!!!

  30. Deliverer Of Deceit says:

    Interestingly enough, I went to HorseyJeans.com where I found “corall” jeans are selling for – $16683 a pair. (Surely “coral” was a typo.)

    Furthermore, I don’t think a $16683 payment at $87 an hour computes to a few hours of work, but I didn’t come here to do freakin’ math equations.

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      Hehehe

    • Deliverer Of Deceit says:

      The spam comment that preceded this has been removed. Appears kinda “whack” as a stand alone comment. (In reply to my comment #34 but didn’t attach there for some reason!)

  31. atticfaerie says:

    @ #29 charlotte… I can’t believe you just spilled the big secret!!! Now the $87hr internet job market will become oversaturated & I’ll have to take a pay cut!

    apologies to the CB staff and real posters/readers: I know I should not “feed the trolls” but my tolerance level for that cr@p is at it’s breaking point today.

  32. claire says:

    I hope he wasn’t drunk while he was racing. He seems to drink a lot these days. Scary.

  33. Deliverer Of Deceit says:

    Holla! Chuck E. Cheese birthday party 2012! Sharpen the daggers, but a return trip from Cabo, Urgent Care throwing up from a bad ear infection and a Chuck E. Cheese party all within a 24 hour time period might be a little much for a 5 year old to handle. At least Brandi has some of her BFFs at the party this year…

    I’m sure I’ve jumped the gun, it’ll be tomorrow when the blogs feature that “bitch” LeAnn posting a twit pic of the birthday cake, but I wish Brandi would have called off the party due to Jake’s illness (yes, even as disappointing as it would have been to him) and settled in for a nice night with her kids allowing him to recuperate. Can’t wait to see the spin on this tomorrow.

  34. Nicole says:

    I can’t explain it, but Eddie is so ugly to me. It’s not bc he’s an ugly person inside. Like his face is so ugly it actually offends me. Leann’s not so hot, so whatever. But I really don’t get the appeal…. Is it dimples? Or squinty eyes? Sigh, smh.

    • Zooyork says:

      I agree. I think Eddie’s revolting.
      And I hate Leann’s nose / nostrils. They make me sick to look at them. I don’t want to see so much of the (supposed-to-be inner) black holes of her nose. sick. imagine when she gets a booger, how much of it you would be able to see. ew……

  35. lori says:

    Whoa NeighAnn, you could wear that blouse ripped open to your navel (why did you stop just 2 inches from there?) We’d still think you need to throw a blanket over your back and gallop back to the stables.
    She can’t let him get two feet away, so insecure of the relationship. How do those tight reins feel Mr. Ed? She is blabbering all about their anniversary, I hope he cheats with the waitress who serves their dinner.

    • brin says:

      Yep…get ready for non-stop photo-ops of the big 1st anniversary (they said it wouldn’t last y’all!) extravaganza.
      Vomit bags will be provided.

  36. mln76 says:

    leann is always trying to do some kind of high fashion look and she always does it wrong.

  37. Sugar says:

    in the last picture it’s like whoa there disco duck where’s the gold chains?

  38. kimberly says:

    Nevermind the race wtf happened to her face. Did she have bad plastic surgery? Her bones protruding out in the chest region, that’s just nasty. Cover it up or something, no one wants to see bones sticking out. Does he take drugs or booze to sleep with it. So gross!!

  40. Jennifer12 says:

    It may be reading too much into pictures, but LeAnn keeps one hand on his midsection and the other around his back. He, on the other hand, holds her around for the picture with one hand and has his other hand in his pocket. Seems weird. I don’t like putting people’s looks down, but I will say her new look seems to be expose the implants all the time. Cut out holes in dresses, unbuttoned to the navel even on the plane, etc. She looks softer and better when she wears belted jeans, boots, and a top that doesn’t overexpose. As much as I loathed what she was pulling that day, the day she wore the high boots and gray cape/cardigan when she took everyone shopping (and then papped herself inside the store) was a good look for her. I can’t even click on the Twitter link- it’s too f-ing much. What she’s trying to prove is anyone’s guess, but she gives me a migraine.

    • Sa11i says:

      This is how she used to dress around LA pre-Eddie:
      http://www.dailystab.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/leann-rimes-doc.jpg

      but then she had to keep up with Brandi’s self admitted “hoochie style” since that and “being plastic” is what “Eddie likes”. Whatever. All I know is when you are singing the national anthem, you need to dress respectfully. But then again, its mrs Rimes-CIBRIAN (all caps because she is a WIFE!) and respect is an alien concept to her.

  41. shaniqua nunyadambidness says:

    How’s it feel to be anorexic, self-absorbed, narcissistic…yet STILL ugly?
    Just ask Leann.

  42. Natasha says:

    Just: OH DEAR.

    Her chest area/boob job is the worst ive ever seen. Worse than Tori Spellings.
