I could analyze this photo for days! LeAnn posted this lovey-dovey (?) pic on her Twitter, of course, yesterday for Thanksgiving. I give thinks to LeAnn all the time. She brings me so much joy and frustration and she’s such a huge cautionary tale. She posted this photo with the caption, “Happy Thanksgiving from the Cibrian’s.” Shouldn’t it be “Cibrians” with no apostrophe? And isn’t LeAnn a “Rimes-Cibrian”? Whatever. There’s so much other stuff to nitpick!
Why is her hair so dark now? Is she aiming for Brandi Glanville’s shade of honey-brunette with lighter highlights? Why does Eddie have that mustache? Is it something about Movember? Or is it – along with Eddie’s lack of a normal shaving schedule – evidence that Eddie no longer cares about grooming? And finally, why did LeAnn position herself so much higher than Eddie? Is this like some kind of animal kingdom stuff? LeAnn is like, “I’m the Alpha, I am literally the Top Dog.” Last questions: did LeAnn post this “happy couple” photo as a way to reject or deny that Radar/Star Magazine story from a few days ago? Is LeAnn still checking all of the media outlets on an hourly basis for any stories about herself?
Also: I don’t know if LeAnn and Eddie had the kids for the holiday, but I’m assuming they didn’t because if Mason and Jake were spending the holiday with their dad and “bonus mom,” I’m sure their bonus mom would have tweeted a bunch of photos of them. I’m just sayin’.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
He is insipid looking…and she is just NOT attractive…but thinks she is! She continues to bombard the public with her nonsense..like ANYONE cares! Go away..LeAnn. You got your married boyfriend…now enjoy the spoils of your efforts…and stay the hell out of the spotlight. You’re starting to look CRAZY! We get it..you won. Or did you?
….???
lol Suzanne girl look in the mirror before calling other people crazy
Hell to the f-ing yeah, Suzanne.
I think she looks good. Hair is probably darker because she isn’t outside as much. He probably didn’t shave because it’s a holiday weekend (my husband didn’t shave on Thanksgiving and he’s been retired for 15 years). They look good, don’t over think it. If they break up, they break up.
Your comment is spot on for these twidiots 🙂
Cosign. It’s just a candid pic.
Although I’m sure she released it to offset the “Is Eddie sick of Leann?” rumours.
She is spackled within an inch of her life. And she is already wearing the tablecloth!
Your analysis cracks me up. I am sure she just takes 100 pics and selects the one she thinks she looks best in.
And ugh…the apostrophe… but I’m giving her a pass on saying just Cibrian. My last name is hyphenated and I always default to the one name when talking about the whole family.
She’s a sad human being.
Girl needs to tweet less and sing more! It’s as simple as that!! She’s really going to regret this period later in life. She’s clearly neglecting her art and getting lost in pathetic seemingly non-stop, obsessive approval seeking. Sad!
He’s looking old… Maybe the crazy is wearing him down?
He looks like a captive. Those eyes. Yikes.
+1! ‘Someone save me from this crazy bitch, PLEASE!!!’
Now, see, I think those eyes are saying “Yeah, I’m getting mine. But at what cost?”
Well, I do like the handlebar moustache, if only because it indicates that Eddie is finally embracing his true nature: gigolo.
The inability to make a word plural is a skill that many Americans have lost in the past decade. It makes me wonder how people got past a 3rd grade writing level. Just yesterday, I read a post on FB from a published author where she wrote “let’s” and “holiday’s”, and neither word was a possessive nor a contraction. SMH.
It’s because grammar isn’t being taught in public elementary school as often as it should. This is just based on my observations in NYC public schools
I have had to block so many “friends” from my newsfeed on facebook due to poor grammar and spelling. I frightens me when some of the parents indicate they are helping their children with homework. Without fail someone writes, “helping the kids with there homework.”
Wow.
Funny thing is, the ‘they’re’, ‘their’, ‘there’ thing is a mistake that only 9mostly0 native English speakers are prone to.
The ESL people learn these words, from, so to say, different sections of the manual/course and so the confusion between them is baffling.
I remember when I first learned about people confusing these words and I just couldn’t get it: ‘Why? They’re so different! Oh’ wait, they sound kinda similiar… is that it?’
Agree, except in certain uses of “let’s”–as in “Let’s all dye our hair to match Brandi’s,” because then “let’s” is a contraction of “let us”, so it’s correct. But yeah, if it’s used as in “she let’s him be the man sometimes,” then yep, it’s wrong. I can’t STAND it when plural words are given an apostrophe, like a pool store here with a sign that says “Luxury Pool’s”–every time I drive past that sign I get my knickers in a twist.
@LadidahBaby
Stop it, you are turning me on. Diagramming sentences is sexy.
It’s definitely not the fault of the teachers. In the school system where I live, they are not allowed to give a zero on an assignment or test, even if nothing is done. They cannot assign late marks. Teachers are constantly losing power in their classrooms. It’s a shame because we are raising a generation that rewards incompetence.
Wow, Erinn. That’s a scary practice to be implementing. Where do you live? If the community raises a generation of kids that aren’t being taught properly, can’t take responsibility and don’t realize there are consequences that will have an impact in the future. Why would a big company want to relocate there and create jobs with a local workforce raised like that? My best friend is a teacher and I know a lot of teachers through her I’ll have to ask her if she’s heard of that.
This is why I love CB – coverage of the Fassdong etc and the correct use of grammar. What more could you ask from a gossip site? 🙂
My pet peeve is when people mix up ‘to’ and ‘too’. The same goes for ‘of’ and ‘off’.
Amelia, my pet peeve is when people mix up “then” and “than”. Aggghhh!!! I agree with everyone, it’s sad how the English language is slowly being eroded. Is it just because of the education system or does the social media play a part in it too? It makes me ill to see many of my Facebook friends status updates.
And my pet grammar peeve is saying “should of” instead of “should have”….drives.me.nuts.
Erinn – I liken it back to the days when elementary schools eliminated letter grades and started with the “Outstanding; Above Average; Average; Below Average; Needs Improvement” grading system, so as not to “hurt the children’s ‘delicate’ self-esteem.”
I looked at my son’s teacher like she was from Mars and said “Excuse me?”
From there, we have devolved into a hyper-sensitive, non-discipline-enforcing, lackadaisical, social-media-driven society.
And people wonder why many young adults, teens, and children have no respect.
@OhMyMy
I live in Nova Scotia. It’s insane. A lot of the kids have no idea how to read analogue clocks. I have a few teachers in my family, and had planned on being one myself until I realized they were cutting back on teachers around here so much.
One of my family members had a student come up to her after she handed out the tests and said “I don’t feel ready to write this today. Can I write it later?”. She hadn’t been sick, or anything either. My family member ended up having to write her a new test (harder in the end), but she couldn’t force her to write the one she had just handed out.
Whose and who’s is another one that confuses the grammatically-challenged as well. And to and too … and dropped the d from used.
I live in Nova Scotia! 🙂 And yes, the educational system is in desperate need of repair.
Wow. How did I make it all this time without knowing the difference? I’m embarrassed now.
I’m a teacher and it drives me insane. I don’t know when using an apostrophe to pluralize became a national error. And people think saying “the Smith’s house” means all the Smiths, as opposed to “the Smiths’ house”. Leann would staple gun herself to Eddie if she could, so I’m surprised she hasn’t changed it from Rimes completely. That said, she’s a total idiot who can neither spell nor use proper punctuation. It drives me crazy how many people fall into that category. I think Leann has gotten to the point of spreading rumors, then tweeting photos of herself to deny them for maximum exposure. She is a sad shell of the talented singer she was; she is now silly, vapid, insane famewhore who doesn’t see that her lack of boundaries concerning someone else’s children and her stalking have killed her career dead and left her in freefall. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer stalker.
I had to comment, seeing the comments about grammer, possessives and what-not. It’s downright pitiful, what I read on the internet every day!
I feel my commenting about this maybe “shows my age(?),” because I’m assumming this is a younger generation thing, as I used to not see this as much.
Oh, & @littlestar, the “then” & “than” always gets me too, but also when “there” is used for the word “their.” It’s so annoying!
Another bad one is when people spell “each other” as “eachother”. *shudder*
Surely you mean “grammar,” right?
“Loose” used instead of “lose” is the one that drives me batty.
Spelling reek as wreak irritates me.
except and accept are the ones I hate to see misused.
Aaargh, the except and accept.
In my town (regional Australia) there are parking signs erected by our moronic council saying “NO Parking. Postal/council/official/whatever vehicles accepted.”
Makes me want to scream every time I see one.
Wow. I didn’t think anyone cared any more. Nice to know I’m around “my” people.
What happens is, people have a bunch of leftover apostrophes from leaving them out of words that should have them. They need to put them somewhere, so there’s the “s” sitting nice and pretty at the end of a plural. Might as well put an apostrophe before it. Nobody will notice.
My first reaction was “The Cibrian’s what?”
Just a few more: phase/faze and alot instead of a lot. And also the misuse of quotation marks. I can’t figure out what the hidden meaning of 2012 is in Happy “2012”! Or “Vegetables” On Sale!
I know! It’s practically THE most straightforward rule of the English language. Now with spelling/grammar check on nearly everything, I guess people are actively choosing to be ignorant. But clearly us people who stayed awake in 3rd grade are smug sticklers who live to correct others.
Us people?
Couldn’t have/wouldn’t have/shouldn’t have versus couldn’t of/wouldn’t of/shouldn’t of drives me crazy. As well as “could care less” when the saying is COULDN’T care less. Not could.
LOL. I remember my sister misusing that one when I was 7 and she was 13. In a fit of teenage histrionics, she shrieked ‘You could care less about me!’ I blinked at her and said, ‘Doesn’t that imply I care a lot?’ She never was one for the English language.
On Leann’s latest tweet she wrote friend’s and meant friends.lol
No one picked my favorite word misuage. Affect and effect.
For my extra pet peeve I give you a word I hear people use all the time, irregardless. Ahhhhh, that one kills me.
She looks like a ravenous vampire, and he looks like he just realized that he’s forgotten his garlic cloves and his crucifix. When you take a “happy couple” photograph and your (*allegedly* opportunistic, money hungry) husband looks like he has just given up on life, you know you’re in serious trouble.
If the man whose “love” you’re generously paying for cannot stand you even after he’s cashed his cheques, you need therapy URGENTLY, because you truly are a basket case.
Maybe he is wishing for Buffy to save him 🙂
Eddie Cibrian looks slightly disgusted to me.
He’s checked out & over it. She probably grabbed him in between his mistress run for a happy couple photo.
She tweeted yesterday that they were going to decorate their tree. I know Brandi had the boys. I don’t know but growing up that’s something we did as a family. You would think they would wait to have ‘their’ boys to do that. Just shows LR knows nothing about being a Mom….not even a ‘Bonus’ one. It’s all for show.
Yes…Brandi had her boys and Leann had her miserable looking boy for about a minute (long enough to take this sad pic).
Yeah, he does look miserable.
Lol @ Eddie’s pained expression. He looks like when dog owners dress their pets up in ridiculous Halloween costumes; the dog sits there all glum-like at the camera saying ‘why?’
I think she posted about being gone on tour for 12 STRAIGHT days & her BFF Lizzie or is it LIzzy joined her so how can she be his….oh nevermind. Any-hoo the whole she’s baaaaaaack sheds light on the lack of light in Eddies eyes oh & that Eddies play-dates are seriously curtailed for now.
So, she is out of rehab? Now, why did she have to go?
Who cares, it’s one less twitter photo-op for Leann to pimp out the boys and fake her happy family. Now the boys can decorate a tree with their mother, the way it should be.
Agreed. I for one am thankful the kids aren’t there to do the tree. What are people going on about? Sshhh! Don’t give her any ideas. Or else she will put the decorations away and wait to snap a dozen photos of the boys doing the tree. Be thankful for small mercies. Don’t give her any ideas.
If our eyes are the ‘window of the soul’, Eddie is all but dead! Soulless eyes in a man who can’t even feign a spark of joy at this stage in the game. He’s only 39 but looks a haggard 55. All that glittered was not gold, ole Ed.
If you look deep into Eddie’s eyes (Note proper “s” grammer/spelling) you will see that it’s only gas (As in “it is”, no possessive) …..awwww Eddie, unlike the crazy, this too shall pass.
Grammer is Kelsey’s last name.
Seeing as grammar and spelling are themes in this thread.
Thank you! I was waiting for someone to pick up on the “grammer” vs “grammar”!
Umm, “grammar”?
Oh, MeAnn and Ediot!
She doesn’t look like Falcor for once, but he looks pained and over it…
I’m not surprised about the apostrophe wandering in, it seems like it’s considered good form nowadays to use it as often as possible… 😀
I have a question for you, because I, as a not-native Englisch speaker, always wonder: Wouldn’t the No Apostrophe in Plurals Rule not also apply to acronyms? As in: DVDs, CDs?
I’m scratching my head over it every time I see it written with an apostrophe.
I’m non-native too, so take it with a grain of salt, but I learned that plurals of acronyms don’t get an apostrophe either.
You spell better than most Americans (I am one). Yes, you are correct. Someone save the English language! Stop the apostrophe obsession!
Good observation. The NO APOSTROPHE rule also applies to acronyms, so DVDs and CDs are correct. I think exceptions can be for plurals that would seem to be a completely different word with an s at the end; can’t think of any examples of that right now…
!
You’re correct, technically there shouldn’t be an apostrophe at the end of DVD or CD. But I’ve seen it all over the place lately.
@Nanea: My new twitter account has the name MEANN EDIOT<follow me LEANN!!
hahahahahahhahahh, epic how you put there names together.LOLZ.
The old rule for acronyms called for an apostrophe, but it’s archaic.
My pet peeve is the misuse of “a” before a vowel.
Ha! His facial expressions is like, “HELP. ME.”
LOL! I thought the same thing!!!
Hard to feel sorry for him, though. You lie with pigs, the stench eventually catches up with you.
Don’t insult the pigs…
Amelia: Exactly! Plus pigs might have higher IQs than these two.
Might?
LOL, Veruca!!! Definitely!
a grey beard..?is she making him get grey hair?
Being married to LeAnn is like being a U.S. President: The men go in looking so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and end their term looking like they’ve seen too much.
All the crazy in that house is making him age faster. He looks in his mid-fifties.
She looks extremely smug in the top picture. Almost a Gywneth smugness.
I’ve never seen a man look SO.BORED. next to his wife.
If I may recall the tweets of a long time fan and follower of LeAnn’s named Donna who posted the following successive tweets a few weeks ago.
@Donna: RT@DeanShermet who posted: LeAnn is just tacky.
While watching the CMA awards: @Donna: Nobody sings better than Carrie Underwood!!!!!
@Donna: LeAnn just blocked me. WTF is her problem?
Donna was subsequently kicked out of LeAnn’s paid website and now Donna wants her money back.
Cannot fathom spending the amount of time she does trolling for insults. Who has that amount of time to waste? She works really hard to get her daily dose of drama doesn’t she? Oh what I could do with that much spare time. Seriously mind-boggling behavior.
If someone retweeted my ex taking a nasty dig I’d block them too, regardless of Rimes’ insanity what did @donna expect?
But ya gotta admit, she looks pretty good in these particular pics.
Bleccchhh. Not.
It looks like she has the damn table cloth wrapped around the front of her. Fugly~
I think the only reason she tweeted this picture is because she is trying to do damage control since all the negative press came out on Wednesday and Thursday about Eddie being fed up with her nonsense. I doubt he will leave her for a few years though. He likes living the life style and I don’t think he wants to give that up. I believe she will turn the other cheek no matter what he does in order to keep the “happy family” image up. Sad and pathetic.
I don’t buy her music. For one thing I can’t understand a word she says anymore. Sounds like she has the microphone down her throat.
Lil, I was scrolling down to say pretty much the same thing!! Step away from the table, LeAnn!!
My first thought was he does look miserable, bored and so over her. And her smile is like she’s holding back tears, think she knows he’s over it but is hanging on for dear life.
Not sure about the picture analysis. He is obviously the one snapping the picture based on the hand placement. So he doesn’t mind her tweeting the pic or whatever.
I never understand why female posters always assume the man is so easily led and has no say in the choices that are being made. Eddie wanted Leanne and she wanted him. they got together and are still together. If he wanted out he would get out like millions of men all over the world.
Eddie doesn’t get out. He gets even and cheats. He was kicked out of his first marriage and home by Brandi because he was cheating with multiple partners, without protection. This guy is a user. He doesn’t leave, he uses women to get what he needs (a home, attention, money, sex.) And he has different women fulfilling his different needs.
That’s why his face says: “Baby, don’t be mad, she’s sucking the life out of me. I don’t want to be here but I gotta earn my pay. See you tonight.”
Exactly.
She looks much better a blonde and his expression says “sorry guys I know she’s crazy but I have to do this”.
Nailed it.
Once Eddie stops putting out, he will be out on his ass….She’s been making money since she was a teenager, and she hasn’t had some of the expensive habits of other stars…I think she’s likely very very wealthy.
Eddie C. has a life of luxury that would be hard for him to find elsewhere. She seems like the type of person that, once she’s done with a man she’s done. If he’s with a wealthy woman, he needs to remember that – he can be very easily replaced.
It bothers me that she’s suing people and that she seems addicted to the internet….
If she really wanted to show everybody, she should go for a stint as a judge on one of the talent shows, or record a new record, and just make more money.
I remember when she had her first hit single ‘Blue’ when she was just a teenager. I think she needs to try to get back to that kind of feeling in her life – that she’s in control, and stop suing everyone around her.
She has to realize that people don’t respect homewreckers. That’s because it’s everyone’s worst nightmare. After a scandal she should be trying to live quietly and concentrate on recording.
Actions speak louder than words…
Good blind item on CDAN that everyone (including me) thinks is Ediot…C list actor who was denied getting a new cellphone & had to use cash (couldn’t use his wife’s credit card)! LMAO!
@Brin, I saw that blind item on CDAN too! I laughed and laughed. Looks like he wasn’t able to dimple his way out of that one.
Yeah, too bad…so embarassing!
It is soooo telling when some of these “vampire” women get with these hot men and within a year, suck the hotness out of them. I add Olivier Martinez to this list.
I was thinking the same thing!! I looked at his picture yesterday re: the Halle Berry house beatdown and thought “Didn’t he used to be gorgeous??” YIKES.
Actually she looks good. What is this a conspiracy to destroy her. LeAnn pray very hard that’s the only way you can stop this evil thoughts on you by these people. He does not look happy in that picture. Sorry.
Ummmm, huh?
…Uh, Ok, Freakshow.
Her hair is darker so that she doesn’t have to bleach her hair during her bandaid pregnancy she’s planning. No roots!
I’m amused at the rather pained look on Eddy’s face. She looks lovey-dovey and he just looks annoyed. Or maybe he’s just tired and hung over?
He looks absolutely MISERABLE! He’s aged at least 10 years in the few he’s been with her… you can tell he wants to run for dear life!
When you marry for money, you pay for every penny. And Eddie looks like he sure has paid for his relationship with insane Leann!
It is like she has sucked all of the hotness out of him. He has no character and little acting talent, so his looks were all he had left. Now they are going south in a big way and what is he left with? LeAnn, his litigious, unstable wife. There was a very short period of time where he looked genuinely happy with her. He hasn’t looked that way for quit a while. Now it;s just her clinging desperately and her tweeting about how much he loves her. He is absolutely dependent on her financially and probably would have a hard time leaving when he has no job. He’s been living luxuriously, travelling non-stop, dining out, being lavished with gifts and probably having her pay his child support.I even read that she pays for his parents house. As I said, he has no character, so rather than leave, he just sticks it out. If she seems this unstable to the public, imagine what she’s like in private. He’s probably terrified of what she’ll do if he does try to move on. Not that I feel sorry for him.
So have you guys got a pool going yet as to when the divorce will be announced?
I suspect this will be more a case of cheating rumors coming to light (again) – only this time with definitive proof. And then MeAnn pulling a Demi and dragging out a divorce for as long as possible.
I’m tired of improper grammar, too; especially when role models display it. As for LeAnn and Eddie, I’m glad the boys got to spend Thanksgiving NOT in their care. I think it’s damaging the boys’ (note the apostrophe 🙂 sense of well being.
He looks like he’s in pain.
I’ll jump on the grammar bandwagon..
just last week on facebook, I saw someone posted that her son “one 1st place”. Seriously?? How on earth do you confuse one and won?
Also: are/our, their/there/they’re, Where/We’re/Were
The one that makes my head hurt though is saying “could of” instead of “could have”. The most pathetic one is confusing use of saw/seen.
Ok, off my soapbox.
Ugh, and also then/than and you’re/your and two/too/to. People are ridiculous.
Other fave usage mistakes/ defuse/diffuse, cite/site, affect/effect (as verbs), imply/infer.
Awwww!!! LeAnn and her Thanksgiving turkey. Gobble, gobble.
Being married to LeAnn is like being a U.S. President. The men go in looking so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and end their term looking like they’ve seen too much.
That made me LOL 🙂
There is an apostrophe because she meant to tweet:
“Happy Thanksgiving from the Cibrian’s insanity.”
lol that is so funny !!
I can’t beleive that I feel sorry for Eddie
there is something in his eyes…
Is he being held capitve? LOL
She is so predictable. I was even going to post a countdown until LR posts a love dovey pic of them or the kids in the other LR post.
His eyes and face in that pic remind me of the pics they take in hostage situations where the captors make the hostage say something to the family or pose in a pic to prove they are okay. they do what they’re told but you can see the fear and ‘save me’ look in their eyes while telling ppl they are okay and being treated well. His expression and eyes look like he is being held against his will and he is trying to say ‘save me’ with his eyes.
LOL I was trying SO hard to think of where I’d seen that look before. You nailed it!!!!
She’s looking very Seuss-ian lately. Leann Lou Who.
Eddie is getting exactly what he deserves!
All those years of his selfish cheating, lying and hurting others has arrived as payback in the form of this whacked out twit that will make his life a living HELL until the day he dies. Which will probably come from her hand when he tries to escape her wrath.
Good Luck Eddie…Karma’s A Bitch And She Works On Weekends Too!!!!!!
+1……
but is he man enough to take responsibility for his karma coming back full force, or will he blame outside factors for everything raining down on him?!
Second option. No question.
Jeez his eyes look so sad. In saying that he knew what he was getting into.
That does NOT look like a happy man in that pic. I can see a slight look of ‘Please someone help me. She has me chained up in the basement!’
Plot twist: LeAnn is actually Edward Rochester. She keeps him in the attic.
It’s a very resigned, embarrassed look. Not the photo I would put out the day after stories come out that he’s embarrassed by her drama and wants to flee.
I often compare the rankings of music on itunes to Amazon. For all the other country artists the two sites track very close in sales, except for LeAnn. On itunes she’ll track a new release in the top 50 for a few days while on Amazon, it’s not even in the top 100. I quess LeAnn down loads her music from itunes….100’s per day.
Maybe that’s why Eddie was trying to get another cell phone, or was it something (aka someone) else.
Yes…. Of course.
Does anyone here notice these two obvious facial resemblance???. They look like they could be siblings.
That’s a cute monkey waving in the second pic
His eyes look dead. He has no joy in them, it’s sad, but also hilarious. He deserves every single bit of it. No matter how many pics she posts, LeAnn has to live with the fact that her husband is allegedly cheating on her and if the slight chance he isn’t, that everyone else THINKS he is. That is equally embarrassing & humiliating.
I’ve noticed on Twitter lately that a few people who have previously been haters of LeAnn had a miraculous “change of heart” about their behavior because they think it will help Kim Smiley. Kissing LeAnn’s butt is not going to help Kim folks, only Kim can help Kim. If she wants to apologize to LeAnn to try and make the lawsuit go away, then let HER do it, stop all this nonsense with rants for “peace” or that you have “found the Lord” again and he would be ashamed of your behavior, in an attempt to make the lawsuit go away. It is not helping, It probably is only giving LeAnn belly laughs knowing she “got” to you and all the haters, just like she wanted to. Good job. If you want to stop tweeting about LeAnn, fine, do that, but don’t send out some tweet apologizing for your behavior. While you go under the guise of helping Kim, it’s very obvious to anyone with a brain that you are doing it because you are damn afraid of getting attached to the lawsuit & sued yourself. At least Jezi & Eileen have been brave enough to stand by what they believe and have not cowered to LeAnn (thank you ladies).
Great post. As I said to The Real Ilana,
To appease evil, is to encourage it.
You are so right in what you are saying. I am not a BB, don’t know Kim Smiley in any way and still think that LeAns is a manipulative, vindictive, horrible person. Her treatment of her husband’s ex and exploitation of children who are not heres, makes me sick. Am I supposed to keep my disgust with her silent now and let message boards be overrun with her yes men? Or am I suddenly supposed to post ass-kissing, flip flopping posts about how kind and generous I know she is and beg for forgiveness, That is playing into her hands and doing exactly what she wants. Bullying people into submission by fooling people into thinking that said ass kissing will benefit the woman she is suing. Kim Smiley isn’t responsible for the thousands who think that LeAnn is a narcissistic mess and has no control over what others say about LeAnn. If LeAnn wanted to drop the suit, she would have by now. If she requires an apology from the person she is suing, that should be enough. Expecting everyone else to suck up to her and apologize for our opinions just shows what an entitled person she is. Ilana Angel’s blog was so misguided. Good intentions but directed at someone who is completely underserving of such graciousness.
+10,000! I have no issue with anyone opting about of any debate for their personal reasons. If they do not feel comfortable commenting because of their own standards, fine. EVen commendable.
But let’s not ignore what this actually is and it’s called legal blackmail.The use of litigation and threats to induce a chance in opinion I see no eVidence that the actual parties sued asked anyone to back off. And for good reason-does anyone think that will influence Leanne? Does anyone have a right to litigate against indiViduals to threaten a group? This is morally and ethically wrong.
Sorry about the soapbox, but you know what I do. Anyone who wants to make their own choices and withhold their opinions about this trick, well, that is their option. But don’t expect others to be threatened or extorted to silence.
Do I need a xanax?
Agree 100% Rock on…
I’m reposting this from Snowpea on Sept 2nd, she speaks about standing up to abusers. That’s what Leann is, abusive. With her money and celebrity, she manipulates and abuses people to get what she wants. If you cower to her, you are a willing victim.
“There are people saying things like they feel like she has been unfairly bullied, that people have lashed out at her and that she is the victim of harassment. Well, I’ll be damned. I CANNOT agree with this.
My mother is identical to Leann Rimes. My mother has Borderline Personality Disorder. I am not here to diagnose Leann but I will say they are very very similar.
BPD sufferers are very scary people to be around. They cause anguish and fear in the people around them. They are manipulative, cunning, malicious, violent and unpredictable.
My mother has persecuted, been violent to, harmed, maimed and abused all four of her children for years and years and every time it gets too much and we withdraw for our own sanity and survival she tries to commit suicide, self harm or tells everyone that will listen what awful children we are.
She IS NEVER at fault. She is never held accountable. She is never responsible for herself. If she is backed into a corner, she will manipulate the situation so that it looks like someone else is fault, no matter how ludicrous or absurd or nonsensical. Sound familiar?
And yet she has never sought therapy. It is much, much easier for her to spend her whole life blaming everyone else instead of looking into the mirror and acknowledging that she does indeed, need psychiatric help, pronto.
LeAnn DOES NOT NEED OR DESERVE your sympathy. She has spent her whole life mastering the sympathy game. LeAnn needs a psychiatrist who is willing to sit down with her and gently guide her through the tangled mess that is her personality and psyche and hopefully find some resolution and peace.
Enough with the sympathy! LeAnn is a very scary, dangerous person with a severe personality disorder who has belatedly discovered that the game is up.”
Candigirl that is hilarious. That is the second time you’ve reposted that. I’m
not sure whether to be flattered or scared ; )
No seriously, I go back and forth on Leann (as I do with my mum) and sometimes I see a victim and sometimes I see a madwoman.
Leann is easy to dislike but she also strikes me as a very messed up, vulnerable person and I see both sides (depending on the day ; )
@Snowpea
That describes my mother entirely. I just wanted to say it really helped me to read that. And it’s the first time I saw it, even though it’s a reprint. 🙂
My mother abused and shredded me throughout my childhood. She tore away my self-esteem, and also had me convinced that no adult would ever listen, believe or help me. So I never asked. She convinced everyone else that I was a bad seed, which made her abusive behaviour seem okay to them.
Thank you and Candigirl and Happy Thanksgiving.
“My mother has persecuted, been violent to, harmed, maimed and abused all four of her children for years and years and every time it gets too much and we withdraw for our own sanity and survival she tries to commit suicide, self harm or tells everyone that will listen what awful children we are.
She IS NEVER at fault. She is never held accountable. She is never responsible for herself. If she is backed into a corner, she will manipulate the situation so that it looks like someone else is fault, no matter how ludicrous or absurd or nonsensical.”
@ TruthHurts: Um, could you try being a little LESS obvious you are talking about me? Yes I did tweet that. And I find it incredibly insulting that you throw a jab at someone like myself who genuinely realizes that sometimes I act (or say) things in a way that would not make my Lord happy. I am a Christian and from time to time I feel the need to repent for things. I did not issue an apology to Leann. My feelings towards her were the same that day as they were the day she filed the suit. I apologized for being obnoxious, which occasionally I have been on Twitter. The apology was meant for my followers. This is the “virtual bottle throwing” I was talking about in my tweet about this because I knew there would be some folks immature enough to not understand. Really, what kind of person knocks someone else who sees themselves acting in a way they aren’t proud of and acknowledges it? Some of us have decided the 24/7 name calling and Leann bashing is completely counterproductive and OLD. There are people on Twitter who literally talk about NOTHING but her all day. Excessive much? Many of the people who feel this way don’t say it out loud and only on DM’s exactly for this reason. Oh and FYI I am not concerned about getting sued by Leann. Not even close. I am not a BB and I don’t think Leann gives 2 shits about me. I didn’t even know any of these ladies until about 4 or 5 months ago. Had nothing to do with the phone call or the distribution. Rarely if ever tweeted her directly. So tell me, what is there to be afraid of and why would I wait 3 months after lawsuit is filed to supposedly apologize to Leann? This is the kind of crap that started this lawsuit mess in the first place. I am someone who feels that all the shit talking won’t help Kim. And the people who feel like that get knocked for it. Absolutely unbelievable. You clearly follow me and I find it interesting you wouldn’t tweet this to me directly but instead do it passive aggressively on CB since you think I don’t know who you are here. And I am simply one of those people who agreed with what Ilana said in that blog.
I’m guessing the Donjulio and her wallet make it a little easier to pose for her fake happy photos.
That smirk says “I’m not in LovE…but she thinks I am… and that’s all that matters” 😉
This picture was taken just after LeAnn sang a remake verse of an old hit to her prize:
“You can try to resist, but my ass you must kiss. But you know, and I know, Ediot, can’t fight the poontang.”
Hence the facial expressions!
All i see is NOSTRILS!!!
Is anyone not bothered by her neck?! Seriously, how is her head attached to her body?! (Too easy joke: we know it’s not screwed on straight…)
Maybe she used “Cibrian’s” instead of “Cibrians” because Brandi tweeted a photo of her kids and their cousins with the caption “Glanville’s rule!” instead of “Glanvilles rule!”
Yup, like Brandi a lot, but her grammar and punctuation are pretty bad.
I saw this on pinterest:
Let’s eat grandma!
Let’s eat, grandma!
Punctuation saves lives people.
Omg. Love it!! Rofl
I have that on a t-shirt! 😀
That man looks terrified. I’m sure he was thinking that the pic had better be gorgeous or else.
eddie looks like he’d rather be anywhere else. why post a pic with the caption “happy” when half of the people in the photo don’t look happy in the slightest. leann is delusional.
of course leann would block someone for saying that carrie underwood is the best singer around, leann cannot stand to have anyone pop the crazy bubble that she lives in.
it seems that leann thinks she is untouchable, above the law, better than everyone else, can do no wrong, and her actions only prove this point.
What we can’t see is the gun she is holding to his ribcage while this photo was taken.
…..OMG, LOL!!!
Is her new song not charting? It isn’t even in the top 100 of Amazon downloads and I can’t find it on the iTunes charts either. I’ve heard the song. She really mumbles her way through it. She has a good voice but her delivery is terrible.
Well… We can finally flush those splitville rumours, along with Eddie once-upon-a-hot-guy-time down the toilet, because this picture proves it; they’re obviously together forever and completely happy. *sarcasm*
Did you see Michael K’s post on this? It was hilarious!!
Pardon my ignorance here but… who is Michael K?? Is it a website? I did Google the name but I got so many people I gave up 😀
The wondrous Michael.K of Dlisted.com! 😀
http://www.dlisted.com/2012/11/23/leann-rimes-wants-you-know-eddie-cibrian-isnt-going-anywhere#comments
Michael K is a dude who runs a website called dlisted.com.
Check it out, run, don’t walk.
He is at times hilarious, dry, kooky, bizarre and insightful but it’s all done with so much good humour and silliness that he never comes off as mean or bitchy.
ESSENTIAL reading every morning!
What they said^^…he is the best!!!
A question for the legal eagles. How can Leann Rimes post photos of the Cibrian children on her website that she charges people to access, thereby profiting from the images of those children while the children’s mother cannot have them in the background of her TV show (while also profiting from the venture)? The children have no say about the use of their images in either case and in an ideal world should be protected from public exposure until an age when they can make an informed decision about whether they want their pictures plastered all over the internet and TV. However, I would have thought that the step mother should have very little right to be profiting from those children’s images and if she does, the profits should be shared between the parents of said children. At the very least the mother should also be permitted to profit by having her kids with her on the TV show since presumably the ex-husband profits from the website(he surely would have to give permission for Rimes to use their images for profit). And I see no difference between tv video versus photos plastered frequently in the tabloids and on Rimes twitter feed and pay for access website. Those photos are obvious PR set ups and the potential for “teasing or bullying” of the children at school would remain the same whether from TV or tabloid exposure. In both cases children shouldn’t probably see either the TV show (given its later timeslot) or the tabloids/internet access (parental supervision) but that is probably an unrealistic assumption in today’s world. Plus if Rimes hasn’t figured out that the tabloids and blog sites trawl her twitter feed for stories by now then she is a bigger moron than the lawsuit would suggest. She knows and she uses the twitter feed as her means of trying remain relevant as many commentators have already pointed out.
That’s a question Brandi would probably answer best, but she did say on a show recently something like that it’s because Housewives is considered “live video” where the other is just pictures.
I feel sorry for both of them. He looks trapped and resigned. She’s in denial and isn’t quite ready to accept that he’ll do the same thing TO her that he did with her.
This is going to fck her up when it comes to a head. Hopefully her angst will lead to award-winning creativity. He’ll just move on to the next one, younger,prettier, dumber, with bigger bolt-ons and more money.
He has emotionally checked out.
I wonder why Falcor hasn’t realized that you can’t build happiness on top of others’ unhappiness.
It just makes for a rotten, decaying foundation.
This^^^
I see a divorce comming. It’s weird but couples who are in trouble don’t see it but it is showing on their attitude and body language….
When I see that smug face of hers, I imagine she’s thinking only of Brandi when she snaps pics like this. This smugness and her gloating are two of the reasons for the immense dislike of her.
Anyone that needs to constantly profess what a happy marriage they have obviously is having problems. I’ve been with my husband 22 years and aside from the occasional remark I rarely do that. I don’t need to prove it to anyone.
She’s pathetic.
I always said after a failed trauma/drama relationship that looked great from the outside but troubled on the inside that what goes on within the four walls of my home is what I cared most about with my relationship now, not carrying on to other people or putting on for show for people to envy me. At home having affection, love, respect and passion for each other was what was paramount. I have always noticed the people sharing TMI or talking incessantly about their great relationship are trying to prove something not true and this especially goes for celebs who like Leann and Demi who post photos the way they
do added with their tweets. If Leann cared more about her relationship instead if spending time posting staged photos of them or herself (trying to prove how hot she is), and what a great bonus mom she is, she would be living it, not posting it, with just an occasional photo or tweet about them here or there. Looking at LeAnn as a singer has taken such a backseat to her focusing to get inane photos in the Daily Mail, etc, and just be an attention hog overshadowing her singing career as a country music artist. Look at Carrie Underwood and how she treats her marriage and private life. Just glimpses here and there. Thus, we see her as an artist.
Taylor Swift is different. She has a teen fanbase, so immaturity is allowed. LeAnn is 30.
I so agree with your post! One thing; LeAnn may be 30 but her behavior is not that of a 30 year old in my opinion. It is more in line with a 13-15 year old school girl. Too bad no one can get through to her and help her to realize how she is making such a fool of herself. One day she will look back on her life with so much regret and embarrassment. That is if she ever really grows up.
eddie needs tyra to teach him how to smile with his eyes.
Once upon a time there was a guy blessed with dimples, dark hair and smiling eyes. Then he met LeAnn.
The End.
@Sugar….If you fill the story out it would make a great movie…complete with two villains and one heroine.
Why is she tweeting? Isn’t that what caused so many of her problems?
Well you should check her twitter now,because she just wrote that she had “done something” with ediot.
sharing you intimate life on twitter means that you want and like the drama!
Don’t you have something other to do after “that”other than TWEET?
I’m just grateful they aren’t dressed up as Pilgrims.
So he doesn’t like her being on twitter? but he’s going to let her take pictures of him and post them for all the world to see. Hum.
Why is so hard for Le-horse to keep her ugly face out of a camera? She’s not cute and no believes that her marriage is all she’s faking it to be.
Scheana Marie Jancan has a new reality TV series, a spin-off of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, called Vanderpump Rules. You know Eddie will be tuning in, that must be why he was trying to buy another cell phone on the down low.
