Alright, there’s a lot of LeAnn crap to cover, mostly because I’ve been avoiding the Scheana Marie situation like a plague. Do you mind if I don’t get into every little detail (because I really couldn’t care less)? I followed & covered the Scheana Marie story when it happened in real time, back in 2009 – go here to read my old stories on the subject. Not only was Eddie Cibrian screwing around on Brandi Glanville with LeAnn Rimes, but he also had Scheana Marie as his side-piece. No one knew about her until she basically sold her story to whoever would listen. Now Scheana Marie has returned – she’s featured on Lisa Vanderpump’s spinoff show, and Brandi Glanville had a “confrontation” (with cameras) with this chick. And now Scheana Marie is back to giving interviews:
It’s no secret that actor Eddie Cibrian cheated on his ex-wife Brandi Glanville. But did he also cheat on his current wife LeAnn Rimes? Before hooking up with the country singer, Cibrian reportedly cheated on Glanville with waitress Scheana Marie. Glanville and Marie had a sit down to discuss the cheating in a recent episode of her reality show “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
Now, Marie, who is starring in Bravo’s “Beverly Hills” spinoff “Vanderpump Rules” is telling Radar Online bad boy Cibrian tried to get her back shortly after he ended his marriage with Glanville and got cozy with Rimes.
“As months go by, Eddie gets separated. He then contacts me to go out for drinks,” she told Radar.
She said the two started to spend more time together after that and rekindle their relationship.“I believed he was separated, so I was happy to go out with him again. But shortly into trying to hang out with him I find out about LeAnn, and I felt like such an idiot!”
In her reality TV confrontation with Glanville the 27-year-old also said she didn’t know Cibrian was married to Glanville when she dated him seven years ago. She reiterated her innocence when she spoke to Radar, saying it was her mom who discovered Cibrian had a wife.
“We hung out, it was quite casual and about six months in my mom saw an article and was like, ‘that Eddie guy you are dating, is his last name Cibrian and is he on Third Watch?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, what do you hear?’ And she told me that he and his wife are expecting their second child!”
Perhaps one of Marie’s coworkers put it best on the premier of “Vanderpump Rules” when she points out to Marie: “You date[d] a famous actor for two years and didn’t think to Google him?”
Scheana Marie also told her story to Us Weekly, which you can read here – it’s her timeline of things, and you can see that Eddie was still fooling around with her while he was fooling around with LeAnn too. Scheana also told Us Weekly that she hasn’t spoken to LeAnn but, “I know she hears sh–t about me every day, which has got to get old . . . but I don’t feel bad for her. We both made mistakes and things have happened. But I was just online and she supposedly called me a liar and said I made up this whole thing! I don’t even know if that’s really true or that’s what she said, but I’m just like, ‘Dude, you made the same mistake I did but you knew he was married!’ She met with his wife on the movie set! That’s bad! I don’t think she’d have the balls to reach out to me because what is she going to say? Clearly I’m not lying, he’s admitted it. I’m sick of everyone saying I’m a homewrecker – no! He wrecked his own home. He broke his vows, he f–ked up, not me!”
So, basically, LeAnn is going out to do some damage control because… you know. Eddie is a cheater and LeAnn doesn’t want to think about it. So she’s going on Jimmy Kimmel and she’s already given an interview to Entertainment Tonight – you can see the preview video here, and here are some highlights from LeAnn’s interview:
LeAnn Rimes, whose controversial relationship with husband Eddie Cibrian has become both a blessing and a curse, tells Nancy her upcoming album Spitfire was born unexpectedly during her extra-marital affair with Eddie. In fact, a handful of infidelity themed tracks included in the album were initially written about a friend of hers while LeAnn was married to her ex, Dean Sheremet.
“What Have I Done is one of the first songs that I wrote for the record, before anything was actually starting to happen,” said LeAnn. “It was written about a friend of mine, but I didn’t realize I was writing it for myself at the time… It was my subconscious talking and I didn’t know yet.”
Speaking on the feelings that sparked her and Eddie’s infamous affair, LeAnn acknowledged that her then husband had heard the troubling track and perhaps knew she would soon be led astray.
“He actually heard the song when I wrote it and, actually, he knew what it was about before I did,” she reveals. “He knew I was feeling feelings. I’m not sure what those were that he knew.”
Sighed LeAnn, “It’s a very complicated situation.”
When asked if she ever worries whether her husband Eddie would ever cheat on her, LeAnn admits that she does.
“I would be ignorant to say, and everyone else would think I am a liar if I didn’t say yes, and I have at times,” said LeAnn, going on to reveal that Eddie has had the same concerns about her.
“Speaking for him, I would actually say that’s creeped into his [mind]…I think we’ve been very honest and open with that to each other and our conversations about it have only made me understand how much he actually cares, as much as I do, about being faithful to each other.”
Although the Grammy-winner is proud of how far she’s come emotionally through the past few years, LeAnn took a bold move recently when she made it known publicly that she had checked into a rehab facility for anxiety and stress-related disorders.
“I feel like there’s only about a handful of people that could understand where I’ve been through as a childhood star and now actually having a career after that,” explained LeAnn of her rocky emotional state before treatment. “It’s hard to explain and I’m not asking for anyone’s sympathy. I think when you see all these things written about you and what people are speculating you want to go, ‘This is why’ and it’s just as simple and as complicated as I need to go learn how deal with myself and with the world because everyone is always looking in and I needed to figure out how to deal with it.”
I’m surprised that LeAnn is actually talking about the idea, the possibility that Eddie has a wandering dong still, to this day. But if you actually parse what she’s saying… it sounds like Eddie is all “I would never cheat on you, baby” and she believes him. Or wants to believe him. Whatever, y’all.

she should be more worried about the wondering dong, but whatever..
LOL!
Eddie is with LeAnn for her money. Eddie is constantly unemployed and he lives pretty good off of LeAnn wealth. He will definitely cheat on her, LeAnn is not attractive compared to his ex-wife and former mistresses.
I feel so sorry for simple minded conclusion makers; those that feel it’s the physical looks that drive infidelity. “Oh Brandi is so much better looking.” If looks are what matters, Eddie apparently does NOT think that Brandi is better looking. I’d say Eddie is like the rest of us and is initially attracted to looks and then, it all comes down to feelings and personality.
I watched the RHOB episode where the 1st wife confronted the mistress. It seems to me that Brandi alluded to the fact that Eddie is cheating now, or at least is a strong possibility. She said something like “Even if he is cheating now, on Leann, I don’t want their (Ed & Leann’s) marriage to end because it will hurt my kids.” Then she said something of the same when speaking with Lisa afterward.
She was with him like a decade? I’d say Brandi knows he is cheating on Leann. At this point, I’d say Leann condones the cheating. That’s why she has those “playtime” photo sessions with her friend Lizzie while Ed takes pics. I’m sure they have a mutual understanding.
yes leAnn “karma” is a bitch!
So true, once a cheater always a cheater and they are proficient at lying too.
I wonder why Leann hasn’t cheated on Eddie yet? She wasn’t very covert during her cheating with him.
I’ll be she does.
I saw a clip of LeAnn for this show. Why did she eff up her face? The cheek fillers make her look odd and harder and older. A once cute girl uses plastic surgery to make her look worse. News Flash. LeAnn, you don’t have to copy everything Brandi does, because Brandi is screwing up her face with those catface fillers. Stupid women.
I agree with you. She looks like the Cowardly Lion, emphasis on cowardly.
Omg, totally. Not the look she was going for I’m sure!
She looks downright UGLY. Whatever she is doing she should stop. She wasn’t all that attractive to begin with & now she is totally unattractive. I just have to laugh bc I think she is trying to morph into Brandi but it’s going all wrong for her. ha.
Ive seen pictures of Brandi when she was 10 she has those round cheeks and large lips and eyes. They’re hers!! Theyre not fillers. If not aging well is a good indication these past 3 1/2 years with Eddie has been hard on LeAnn I’d have to agree. She looks like she’s aged 10 years.I don’t know if she’s drinking to much. It seems she led a much healthier lifestyle with the other husband. Maybe he wasnt a big partier, being married to him, didnt cause her stress. Maybe now she wishes she hadnt moved in so hastily. I wouldnt want to be with a man I had to worry would cheat on me. I’m sure he told Brandi all the time. “Baby I would never cheat on you.” Who can believe him? He’s a pathological liar and cheater. He put his pregnant wife and unborn child at risk by fooling around on them. STD’S can kill.The guys a sociopath.
and this is why people SHOULD NOT CHEAT!!!!
Publicly admitting you worry about your husband’s fidelity . . . oh yeah, that’s a REALLY stable relationship.
Another newsflash, LeAnn, Eddie throws out how you might cheat when you are accusing him of cheating to deflect. Go on the offensive, right, Eddie? Classic cheater move. Smart, Eddie.
He’s a homewrecker, too. We all seem to forget that. She cheated on her husband so it’s fair for him to throw that at her. We all know it’s unlikely she will stray but I’m sure its a power-deflection move he uses often.
Yep. Eddie is setting the foundation by deflecting blame etc..
Personally, I don’t believe that Eddie would cheat on his paycheck because he loves it so much. Leann? Meh. She’s a necessary evil for him and he deals because he likes the money and fame. Gross.
Oh totally! He feeds her ego while getting her to reassure her love for him, making LeAnn feel she needs to prove her love and devotion to Eddie more, all the while taking the focus off of him cheating. He is scum. We can ALL see it, it’s so sad that LeAnn can’t. She’s as bad an example for women as much as Rihanna is.
I’ve always felt that the brown/rhianna thing was/is a ‘too much to drink beating each other up’ thing….
Brilliant move on his part to say he has the same fears about her. Bahahaha! Sure ya do, Ed.
LOL yes that was the best part!
Anyone who reads her twitterfeed and looks at her mug immediately gets a case of the limb peen. Doubt people even consider having a sexual fantasy about her, let alone actually climb on her naked body :O
That was the part that stood out to me. I know for a fact EC is not worried about that. He’s got LR so dickmatized, she ain’t going anywhere. Plus, at this point, he’s an investment. A poor investment, but an investment nonetheless. She’s spent more on keeping his ass around than we can count. I dislike her so much, but I just wish she would see what we all see. He doesn’t love you, he loves your bank account.
Exactly! It’s the whole cognitive dissonance thing – she will convince herself he’s worth all she’s put into him.
Leann’s face looks weird when she sings. Really odd.
While wandering around youtube a few nights ago I found a video of teenage Leann singing! What happened girl?! She was so cute!
How you got him is how you will lose him …
Well said! He will spent all her money first.
She’s just a broken record at this point. Her affair is the only thing keeping her relevant, and she knows it.
+1
+2
maybe this is some sort of weird precursor/pr thing. she could start a new wave of “will he or wont he cheat” followed by “poor leann” when he does. if she senses he could be looking around and realizes her career is in toilet, since she cant get it out talent-wise she has to make herself relevant and appear to be a victim if he does a dine and dash on their marriage. sad shes so cray cray.
Hmmm very, very good point. I was also thinking this could all be damage control because as the blogger that I read the RHOBH recaps pointed out, this season is all about Brandi. I haven’t had a chance to see this weeks episode, but allegedly Brandi talks more about her marriage and how she had no idea about Cruddie’s extra curricular activities, with anyone.
Hmm! Very good point. It must be so exhausting having to constantly try to be one step ahead of every situation. What a way to live your life.
She’s so fug. I don’t usually say this but she is.
Girl, he’s a cheater and the Karma train is coming for your ass! Choo-choo, bitch! Choo-choo!
Woo hoo…let’s hope it’s an express train and not a local!
Why oh why do all y’all let Eddie off the hook. If LeeAnn and the Scheana weren’t around he would have found someone else to screw (and I’m quite certain he does and did). He sits there with his douche in while the women tear eachother to shreds. And all of you want to find a way to blame the women for his behavoir.
I don’t think anyone is letting Eddie off the hook, but he’s not continuously giving interviews. This is like her fourth interview, in as many months, talking about the same thing.
Agreed.
Everyone is letting Eddie off the hook and blaming the women in these comments. He is a serial cheater and master manipulator who only loves his c–k.
I totally agree with you. Eddie’s day will come. His boys will be men one day, and he’ll have a lot to answer for. Leann will be lucky if she’s not around anymore.
I think Eddie gets turned on knowing all these women are bickering because of his wandering dong, he secretly loves it and can just quietly sit by and watch them tear one another apart, while everyone forgets about his wrong doings in all of this. It’s a win/win situation for him.
NONE of us let Eddie off the hook. We think he is disgusting. His career has been negatively impacted, he is reduced to small guest stars on Hot in Cleveland. He is just more quiet about it. We give LeAnn a harder time because she is a woman and we as fellow women, are disgusted by her behavior and expect more from our sisters.
You give her a harder time because she is a woman end of sentence.
1000% agree, TheTruthHurts. I don’t think there has Ever been a Leann/Eddie/Brandi post With Out stating how much of a douche Eddie is to begin with. At this point, it’s pretty much common knowledge and to boot we NEVER see/hear/read Eddie’s comments on the situation. Leann knows this is the ONLY reason people discuss her anymore, so she is fueling her own fire. It’s an ugly cycle when people are as narcissistic as these two.
@mln: I don’t see where you are coming up with this incessant accusation that everyone gives Ediot a pass when more than half the thread proves just the opposite? Where does anyone give that dude a pass?
The thread is about LR because LR refuses to shut up -interview after interview its all she talks about, she writes an entire album about it and yes, people will comment about it negatively. If Ediot was doing that-it would be the same to him…but even on here no one leaves him out of it. He’s getting bashed just as much as Leann on here.
Everyone says that Eddie is a POS and a horrible father on a regular basis and that he has reaped what he has sown. However, Leann is the one tormenting Brandi and trying to co-opt her motherhood and pose as a parent. That’s why people loathe her. As for Scheana, she’s full of crap and knew Eddie was married and sat there trying to prove she was more than the other woman when that’s all she was twice over. Her apology sucked. And Eddie? That chain Leann on him IS his karma.
Because they are victimizing themselves and crying on TV and on tabloids, when honestly they should just shut up and hide. Asking not be slut shamed after doing something so horrible is nothing but victimization and refusal to take responsibility. It takes two. The freaking nerve after how much they love the attention they get from this is absolutely disgusting.
It’s bad enough that they willingly dated a married man and helped wrecked a home, but it’s like they don’t want to face the backlash while at the same time putting themselves out there in bikinis for the paparazzi and reality shows where they keep talking about it.
The truth is people will always and forever judge the crap out of stuff like this ’til the end of times because IT’S NOT RIGHT. Nobody is going to side with this kind of people. And if women don’t want to get extra sh-t about it they need to be smarter and stay away from a-holes like Eddie Cibrian and Rupert Sanders. It’s not worth it.
And nobody leaves Eddie off the hook. Everyone is perfectly aware that he’s a man-skank and he stands LeAnne only for her money. If he talked more, like them, he would be facing more backlash too. The difference is that he stays more quiet, as it should be.
Well, DUH. Between the starving herself to be thin stuff and the stalking the ex-wife stuff I think it’s pretty transparent that she’s as about insecure as it gets when it comes to her husband.
Why does she keep on knowing that she receives enormous backlash every time? Same story and the outcome will once again be the same.
Definition of insanity.
Hi Jezi!! It’s been a while but that’s because, as you say, there’s nothing new. I imagine LeAnn in her late sixties, with Eddie long gone and she’s sitting around in a mold covered bikini still talking about how nobody can really understand the difficulties she’s had in life, blah, blah, blah.
On the other hand, Brandi’s book sales are strong as she stays on the best seller list while LeAnn’s last two efforts are long gone.
Note to LeAnn: You will have no success in life, personally or professionally until you drop that vindictive lawsuit against the mother of those adopted handicap children but then again you seem to love to wallow in your failures.
@ Rita- what is going on with the lawsuit? Can CB do a story just covering it? For k smiley and her family, I hope so.
She’s a horrible human being.
Exactly Jezi!!! And it is the same silly shit. No one cares about the affair it is over with but what bothers me is her constant need for attention about it. This bitch cries a river about privacy but puts every piece of her personal life on display. She is got what she wanted so STFU about it. Instead she give these bs interviews, whines and sits her fugly ass on Twitter all day stalking, blocking and talking about how great her life is.
And I also agree…Eddie is a smart SOB. Reverse psychology…making her believe he cares about her cheating. NOT!!!
Because she cannot see past the fact that Scheana & Brandi are getting a lot publicity right now and her jealousy can’t deal.
…and that’s the truth and the truth hurts. 🙂
Wow!! So, a cheater might cheat AGAIN? Quelle suprise! In related news: water IS in fact WET!!
Ha ha!
oh please, this scheana broad knew he was married. she just thought her p*ssy was so good, he would leave his wife for her. now that he didn’t and people are calling her a homewrecker, she wants to play the innocent victim. Beyotch, please. and she’s obvs a famehoe, with her bit parts on this show. hate that these trashy people make all this money being trashy. meanwhile, hard working people struggle to get by.
I know, it’s hilarious that this waitress claims she didn’t know he was married. The first thing she would’ve done after meeting Eddie is Google him.
Newsflash to LeAnn: Of course, Eddie is going to cheat on you. In fact, he probably already has. He wasn’t faithful to the mother of his children, so why on earth do you think he’ll be true to you? And same goes for LeAnn. When her obsession with Eddie wears off, she’ll do likewise.
But, who would want to get with her?
@Zooyork
Ha ha, someone who doesn’t mind putting out for cash. You know, just like Eddie.
If Sheana (sp) had more money then Leanne he would be with her instead. That’s all that it comes down to with this guy ladies. It would be so depressing waking up to my husband with that thought every day.
Yep, Eddie loves the $$$.
the other ‘shoe’ is gonna drop and we, the collective public, are going to witness a meltdown that is gonna make britney’s head shaving incident look like a mild panic attack
I totally agree. It’s just all so old already and I’m so sick of the poor me, victim routine. The best thing she could have done from the start was to just shut up and let some time pass, instead of twittering away with all the “bonus mom” talk, gag me already. No matter how hard she tries, she is NOT the victim in this whole mess. Those poor little boys are.
These ladies sure like to talk about who they sleep with. Really, is there nothing else to talk about?
If he cheated to be WITH you, he will cheat ON you. Come on man.
She was fine with it when his wandering eye went to her. Alas, chickens coming home to roost and all.
(The poor kids, though.)
There is a reason Leann sticks out from other cheaters. Same with Kristin Stewart. They met and knew the wife. That’s what makes them such assholes. They are selfish and entitled and without a moral compass. That’s why people hate what they did more than others who cheat. And don’t even get me started on the relationships having kids….
True, plus Leann keeps talking about it…that makes her numero uno asshole.
Yup. Not to mention the stalking, copying and bullying.
I agree mozy.
This is as hilarious as Katie HOLMES’s Sexiest woman of the millenium vote by GQ.
“He knew I was feeling feelings.” LOL times infinite…
Exactly, how ditzy and pathetically articulated.
I find it really hard to believe you wouldn’t know the person you are dating is married if you’ve seen them more than once, but let’s face it – its easier to plead ignorance than face up to being a cheater.
Leann and Eddie will fall apart because relationships born of cheating will die in cheating.
Totally. EVERYONE Googles the person they are dating–especially if they are a famous actor. I would like her more if she would have said, “I Googled him and knew he was married but did not ask him b/c I hoped, since he was so open about dating me, that he was separated and I chose to live in denial. When my mom brought it up to me I had to confront him, so I did and he confirmed what I had hoped–that he was separated.” I mean, she was 20 and we are usually morons at 20 (although my moronic 20 year old self still managed to avoid married men, but still…). That version is easier to believe than her current version that she did not Google him and her mom brought it up for the first time. She only says that b/c when her mom brought it up she lied to her mom and acted ignorant, so she has to stick to that story. The problem is that it is not believable.
So, Scheana is 27 now, and was “dating” Eddie 7 years ago? She was just 20 at the time? I suppose that explains how she didn’t know he was married, probably naive in dealing with 30-something men.
She saw him every other Tuesday for two years save a quickie here and there and a tagalong on a boy’s trip. Her age was around 21 – 24. She knew.
Can you imagine how much it would SUCK to watch a woman discuss what a jerk your current husband was to his last wife?! THIS has to be putting a major strain on their already fragile marriage. Examples: Eddie would tell Brandi that he did not have cell phone service..it was a boys trip, etc. You KNOW Leann watches and thinks back to all of the times he has said the same thing to her. Even for a mentally adjusted (normal) adult, that would take its toll!! It would make me, personally, bat-sh*t, psycho crazy paranoid!!!
And it was already an issue, as evidenced by the tattoo Leann got on her ankle AND that interview…
Anyone else notice that when Eddie made the comment in the interview that, “We were never cheaters, I mean…well, Leann especially was never a cheater (admitting that HE WAS)…” Leann almost rolled her eyes at him!!!! Did anyone else notice that?!
I almost feel sorry for her b/c that is one awful way to feel in a relationship, let alone a marriage!
Karma–she is a bitch.
Women like this Shaena person really p*ss me off >:( It takes a really ‘special’ kind of person to knowingly hook up with/search out married people then want to turn it around as if they were somehow unsuspecting victims all along thmeselves. SIX MONTHS and she knew he was an actor on Third Watch but was somehow totally blind to the fact that he was married and had a child? B*tch please.
Second only to that in my book of bs is mistresses who have the gall to get all up in arms when they discover that their MARRIED boyfriends (eye roll) are “cheating” on them with another side piece!!
These idiots all deserve each other and Brandi seriously needs to move on with her life and let go of all things Eddie. (What’s the value in a sit down with one of his former mistresses-who she already knew about-when they’ve now been divorced for years?)
I don’t see the problem with it. I’m sure it was getting tiring having to avoid the girl all the time, since she waitresses at one of her bff’s restaurant. How awkward. Better to clear the air and not have the weirdness. Seems easier to move on to just get it over with and not have the elephant in the room, so to speak. Imagine if it was known that the girl wanted the sit-down and Brandi avoided it? All her critics would say: oh, she must be afraid, she’s still too hung up on Eddie to deal with things, what is she hiding, blah, blah.
Let’s call a spade a spade. I would have no desire to frequent a restaurant the skank was at ever. Lisa has other restaurants to go to. Sur is no big deal to avoid and I doubt she was ever there more than a couple of times anyway. It was done for ratings, pure and simple, and simply came up with the plot line. I don’t really have an issue as she handled it fine, but it was all about setting up that plot line (I could see it coming a mile away) and ratings and helping Lisa with her new show and selling books for Brandi.
I have to disagree. If I had the choice between never getting to go to all the soirees that my friends are going to, at the restaurant one of my friends owns, (and not to mention the times they are “working/filming” there) or just dealing with talking to the girl, getting it over with, putting closure on it, so I didn’t feel awkward, I’d just do it. Sure, Bravo capitalizes on the opportunity by filming it, but I’d not let this girl keep me from going places.
Interesting. If Rimes is now admitting that she worries about Eddie’s wandering wang, chances are she thinks or knows it’s already wandered. Otherwise, she’d be jamming the usual “we’re SO happy!” line of bs down our throats.
LeAnn’s anxiety — which I believe is real — stems from having to constantly question the legitimacy of the most precious thing in her life: her marriage. The other stuff, I believe, is just her whacked brain trying to protect and distract itself from the real issues at hand. EVERYTHING in her life goes back to profound insecurity and it all goes back to her relationship.
“Psychiatric Help 5¢” 🙂
Agree with your point of view. Eddie loves women, and he is a womanizer (cue in Britney Spears’ song.)
Oh, what to do with a man who loves his dong more than life itself? Eddie has done quite well for himself. He caters to his greatest love and is never short of suitors.
Eddie and his dong have apparently sweet-talked a number of women into delusion – i.e. ex-wife Brandi, jump-off Scheana, and now current wife Lee-Ann. There are probably others as well.
There are some similarities with these women:
Each of them claims that Eddie told them he loved them.
Each one of them were “happy” with him while there were/are with him
Each one of them loved being told they were beautiful by Eddie. (There’s nothing like being told you are beautiful, especially when the endorsement comes from a pretty man.)
Each one of them were di**matized by Eddie, so much so as they could not/cannot see, hear or think straight. If Eddie told them the sky was red, they would have believed him. EVERY ONE OF THEM SOUND RIDICULOUS AND FOOLISH WHEN THEY SPEAK ABOUT EDDIE BECAUSE HE CREATES A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY.
Each one of them loved the “quality’ of attention that they received from Eddie.
The 7 Effectual Habits of a Womanizer…if ever such a book existed… it needs to be shipped to these woman before they become a victim again to ANOTHER womanizer…
@Fabgirl: Age has nothing to do with it. 20 years old is not a child nor was this girl an innocent babe in the woods. If she was old enough be involved with a 30 something married man and brag about it (see Kaiser’s original article), then she was old enough to take responsibility for her actions.
When I was 20, I knew the difference between married and single and how to use Google 😀 Besides, this guy was at the height of his fame back then; she chose to ignore what must’ve been right in front of her face.
True, true. I guess I was thinking that, coming off of teenage/college-age romances, you don’t expect too much? Maybe things like him never taking her to his house, getting lots of “private” phone calls, not going out together publicly, etc. were not the red flags that they would be to an older woman.
Or she is just an idiot, or a liar.
Just speculating, I really don’t have a dog in this fight.
Also, she was 20 and he was…33, 34? Failing the old half your age + seven years test there. Does his creepiness know no bounds?
i remember being 19 and completely grossed out when a 27yr old man hit on me!!! It’s funny now, so many decades later, i’d enjoy a 27yr old man hitting on me. Wouldn’t take him seriously, but i would enjoy it.
I do wonder what Eddie thinks when LeAnn goes on the PR parade talking about the same ol’ crap, in the same ol’ way, dragging his name out over and over again.
Nothing good has come of it, in fact you can honestly make the correlation that the negative publicity LR has generated about her and him has adversely affected his career. Wouldn’t that piss you off, instead of make you want to defend her?
What does he truly think of his wife? He has got to have an ego, a certain amount of virility and pride. What has this new image done to that? He is now being regularly mocked as a drunk, kept husband with an unstable insecure wife that watches him like a hawk, no career, no prospects, nothing. I don’t think any man wants a reputation like that.
I agree with all that have commented that he is a user, that he lacks a conscience, that he’s got a relatively good thing going financially, but could that be enough for someone to stay in a situation that’s got to be eating away at his own sense of esteem and confidence? I don’t feel sorry for him, but hell, couples have split for less reasons than this. He cannot honestly be happy with how this turned out.
I wonder if there was a pre-nup, and he has to stick with this until a certain amount of time, or if he cheats he loses everything…
Truly great points Theresa, gives one a lot to think about. Does his ego have no sense of self-preservation? Does he not feel burning, over-riding embarassment and shame? Not to mention disgust at touching someone intimately that you don’t have feelings for? Not to mention that he has kids and should be wanting to set a good example. I don’t understand his mentality, and I’m glad I don’t.
Did we ever find out which of LeAnn’s “friends” is pregnant? Who was she throwing that party for?
Also, to whomever said that Rendee badmouths LeAnn behind her back, what does she say?
Lastly:
LeAnn,
No one ever saw you as “America’s Sweetheart” or was shocked that you “weren’t perfect”when the affair came out. No one thinks Eddie is going to be faithful to you or buys that you have this amazing relationship. No matter how many times you tell us this, no one is going to buy it!!!!
Probably no one. My impression was she was trying to imply she was doing something for Kim Kardashian so the tabs would speculate and write about her.
And Kim Kardashian is no longer following Leann on twitter, so I’m guessing if it was her, that didn’t turn out so well. lol
Is it just me? What in the hell is so special/appealing about this unemployed actor? I would like to slap that smug look off his face!
He has concerns that SHE will cheat? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA with who? carrot top?
LOL!!! Seriously who in their right mind would want to have anything to do with this basket case after watching all the whole sickening affair and all the aftermath?? Maybe someone who wants publicity–all bad? But then maybe another narcissist?
Casper Smart?
I bet she and Eddie do threesomes with Lizzie and she’s secretly afraid that he’s a sex addict and that Lizzie will steal
Isn’t Ediot getting a little old for this crap? I just get tired thinking of all the effort cheating involves, but then I have an actual job.
Yes, Eddie is getting old for this crap. I’ve been thinking the same thing.
There’s something seriously wrong w Eddie.
Like sociopath/psychopath -ish. Dangerous!
Best advice I gave my daughter :
“Stay Away From Dimples”.
Not kidding!
Yeah…Ediot and Mario Lopez.
Great comparison, Brin. And they are buddies. Douches of a feather…
Advice for LeAnn :
Watch your money!!
Cheaters (liars) are unfaithful in all aspects of their life. He’ll take your $$ while you’re distracted (he’ll create chaos) about the waitress, the barista, the trainer etc in his life.
While u ride crazy train to broke-town.
She literally says the same thing over and over in her interviews. It’s bizarre. She has no new descriptors for anything. I get that she’s never going to shut up until she believes people are buying “her TRUTH”, but at least try to create new sentences for all of these interviews?
I’ve noticed that too Claire. It’s all rinse and repeat. This clip of the interview with Nancy O’Dell – watch her eyes. She is so lying. Her eyes are all over the place – trying to remember her scripted BS. There is nothing authentic about Leann Rimes. NOTHING.
HaHa. Had that same thought about authenticity after watching the clip. It pains me to listen to her speak – I don’t know why I watched it. She is so inarticulate. She cannot seem to form one complete sentence. It’s all these random unthreaded concepts in her mind that she starts, drifts off from, never answers a question and vaguebooks like crazy, that somehow always ends with being so proud of herself, so honest, so truthful, so deep.
I’m not sure what she thinks she’s saying. It’s like with her repetitive statements about how she discusses so much hurt that they’ve done to each other in the Borrowed song, and how she was worried about putting Eddie in the song and telling their story and the pain they caused each other, how hard it was for her to put all that out there. Then you look at the lyrics and it’s just basically saying over and over, do you love her/sex her up same as me? Delusional cow, that’s standard mistress-think 101. But she thinks she’s said something profound. There’s nothing enlightening or mind blowing or interesting about saying those simple lyrics over and over again. Whatever deep deep story she was telling must still be up in her head.
So true. She’s a broken record and says the same thing over and over. She used to be poised in interviews, very articulate, actually, and came across so nicely in interviews before the Eddie marriage and now all she is is a whiner, saying the same thing over and over. The alcohol and pills and dong and twitter and martyr/persecution complex have fried her brain.
I’ve read/seen past interviews. I definitely think she used to do better at making full sentences that made sense and actually expressed something. So I don’t know what that’s about – being disconnected from what she’s saying because it’s all bull? On the other hand, one thing I think has been constant is the repetition. Even in earlier interviews, in the 90s, after every album, she’d say same thing: This is first time I’ve really shown myself. This is a very honest record from me. I’ve grown so much since this last record. I’ve really learned who I am as a woman. It’s kinda weird, right?
Ahh–her interviews! How many does this make now and how many more to come?? And yet she and her paid puppets always say that Brandi should just get over it! Brandi has moved on and LiaR should just shut up!
Leann:
1. Eddie is attracted to gorgeous and confident. You are neither. You are homely and insecure.
2. Brandi is in Eddie’s heart forever. I doubt you even reside in it temporarily. He got with Brandi and actually married for love. He got with you for revenge and cash. You destroyed his family. He is guilty of the same but he never intended to get with you for anything but revenge and cash.
3. As far as a childhood star to a successful career now. D.E.L.U.S.I.O.N.A.L. You are. You are the most disliked singer I can think of. Your music doesn’t sell. Your so called “tour” is a joke and consists of an “intimate” (laughing) lounge act that you can’t even sell-out a 500 seat room… to the comped casino seats, to fairgrounds. You are washed up. You have no career.
4. If Ed does have a baby with you it will only be to assure more cash K-fed style. You matter not to him. A divorce is imminent. Everyone understands this but you.
5. Combine your evil ways and cash – you run people. You have no real friends. I can’t wait till you are broke. You’ll get what you have coming. It’s gonna hurt.
6. Your fans are few and your twitter fans are absolute idiots. In the real sense of the word too.
7. Go away. Forever. You are a loser.
That was hilarious!
You wanna say what you really feel? 😉
Everything you said was spot on. You can’t leave a trail of emotional carnage and destruction behind you like Rimes has, without the universe bestowing some sorta retribution.
Sorry Rimes, but you got it coming to ya.
^THIS!!!! *applauds*
Jeezuz-it’s like ‘Groundhog Day’ with her.
LOL
She has NOTHING else to keep her relevant.
I can’t imagine being cheated on and left out to dry by my husband after having two of his children… and JUST having the second. It literally brings tears to my eyes. I have one child and it’s amazing, but at times incredibly trying. I don’t know what I would do without my husband there to help me and hold my hand. I can’t express how bad I feel for Brandi in all of this. Everyone else needs to just STFU.
I know. And having to see the skank worm her way into your children’s lives?? God.
ITA but it’s the cheating with multiple people that’s really gross. gezus dude get a hobby.
Over/under 18 months on this marriage (from right now)? Anyone willing to take the over?
I say they divorce within the year.
Also, there’s a basic maxim at work here that too many people seem to forget. Once a cheater, always a cheater. If she cheats on her husband with you, she’ll cheat on you once you’re married. If he cheats on his wife with you, he’ll cheat on you too.
It’s not rocket science.
What, and go live in a one-bedroom apartment and get child support from Brandi? LOL He’s going no where. He loves his lifestyle. He just tunes out LeAnn when she gets on his nerves — or pops another beer, LOL. Their divorce is way down the line, many years away, unless he gets a big series, not the occasional little acting gig.
I can’t see Eddie leaving her, but I CAN see her leaving Eddie when he inevitably cheats. That’s the scenario I expect.
Look, I am no great Leann fan. But I was just browsing through Twitter the other day, and the amount of vitriol that is directed at this woman is just out of control. And don’t try to play the “she brings it on herself” card. I mean, there are Twitter accounts that are DEDICATED to making fun of everything about her in the cruelest way. What is wrong with these people that they must dedicate their lives to tearing another person down? I really don’t understand it. Fine, you don’t like her, she’s a cheater, she’s manipulative, etc. But these people who dedicate their lives (I’m not exaggerating when I say DEDICATE) to tearing her down are in my mind just as bad. Just bitterly insecure people, and I have no doubt that some of them comment here on CB under different names. And Brandi follows these people and responds to them, which makes her just as bad. People doing her dirty work for her, and she passive-aggressively allows it instead of denouncing it or ignoring it completely.
These haters exist for Brandi as well – it’s certainly not one-sided. And Leann follows/tweets at them as well which makes her just as bad. It’s disgusting, and they should both stop.
I have no doubt that Eddie loves LeAnn as much as he can. He loves the one he’s with. He has no conscience. He screwed around on Brandi enough that it just amounted to she was his wife and loved her and she fit in his life and he loved her only the way a narcissist can love. He was able to stay married as long as he could get strange to offset the boredom of marriage. I’ve seen men like him. People keep talking about beauty. I have seen men leave beautiful women and marry women far less beautiful and really love them. Brandi would send my husband over the edge with her loud mouth and nonstop F this, F that. Brandi needs a special kind of guy who doesn’t get rubbed the wrong way day in and out with her personality. Eddie seemed fine with it.
Beauty isn’t everything,though, in why men fall in love. LeAnn was once cute.
If LeAnn was who she seemed to be I could see what he saw in LeAnn. Very cute girl, extremely talented, respected, and had a southern sweetness about her and came across poised and well-spoken. She adores the ground he walks on. But after he married her, by 2011 she was anorexic, obviously using pills and alcohol as a crutch as it was showing on stage in links I have provided, a mental crying mess or manic pretending she has a perfect life (how exhausting), ruined her looks (what happened to young-looking cute LeAnn), fame-whoring herself from a B-lister to a D-list level by obssessing over selling herself out to Daily Mail, etc, for bikini paps (due to getting the hot guy and obssessing over Brandi and her looks). LeAnn’s body is much better now, so eating again, but her face is being destroyed by fillers and botox and I don’t recognize her compared to three years ago. Of course, he has helped create the mess LeAnn has become; otherwise, he would have stopped it if she felt truly loved by him and he most certainly could have put a stop to the taunting of Brandi.
So what Eddie ended up with isn’t what he was enamoured by in the beginning. I can’t imagine watching someone you thought had so much going on now living on twitter, getting into high school twitter wars, totally obsessed with the ex-wife (the taunting is embarrassing coming from a music star) and boo-hooing all the time is attractive to him. It has to be wearing listening to her neuroses.
Actors have lows and highs in acting. He is hitting 40 and has had a real lull. I think being married to LeAnn takes so much pressure off the worries he has when he doesn’t get a gig. I don’t think he’s lazy. I think his agent is out there like every other agent trying to get their clients jobs. He’s too stupid to realize the overkill of staged photos of him and LeAnn on the beach, etc., makes him a joke and all the twitter bonus mom crap, etc, by Leann keeps this going on and on. This would have blown over a long time ago and he could have been seen with a successful put together singer and their life would go on and people would accept them instead of this circus LeAnn has created by her behavior egging on the haters. He is hurting his own career, which I think bothers him not working, but he does feel relief that they live a nice life no matter his ups and downs.
If LeAnn wasn’t such a neurotic mess, I think she would be his wife for a long time and he would be happy, (with the occasional romp with someone else).
He hates Brandi now and after the Scheana crap, even more so, and thus LeAnn is his best cheerleader and keeps them close, them against the world.
The only day he won’t hate Brandi is when and if he divorces LeAnn someday and he now will be nice to Brandi for one reason, he needs her to be his cheerleader and sounding board about crazy LeAnn.
He doesn’t have a deep conscience — or any conscience.
Jesus. Are you serious? I PASS.
I agree, Jayna. Eddiot is probably close to being a sociopath. How else can one explain his behaviour?
People change. Everyone can feel insecure in their relationship, even if they didn’t come together amid other relationships. It has to do with the individual’s insecurities. I think LeAnn is smart to at least acknowledge that anything can happen, and if they keep communicating, this marriage may last. I hope it does; they’ve gone through a lot to be with each other.
ALL of the people involved in this soap opera are narcissistic and pathetic. Yes, the waitress is trashy. Yes, Brandi is a famewhore. Of course Eddie will cheat again. Of course crazy Leann will have a total meltdown when their marriage implodes. And we’re all sitting here with our popcorn watching it go down.
Without reading the article, i just wanted to say that last week/night as i watched the RHOBH, with it’s airing of Eddie’s cheating/lies, i kept wondering how LeAnn was going to react to it.
First off- lets be real, Scheana know Eddie was married. If you’re dating an actor..you google him.. She did, she knew, she weighed the options and chose to carry on. If she now wants to pretend she was a naive victim…it’s not gonna happen. Own your shit.
As for Leann, she can babble on all she wants about tools, true love and connections but we all know the truth and her throwing bullshit in our faces wont stop us from seeing it.
Of course she worries he will cheat because she knows he truly doesn’t want to be with her. She was his fail safe. His last stop, his only option left (with $$ of course). The reality is he doesn’t love her and deep down in places she doesn’t want to admit…SHE KNOWS IT!
But I did get a big ol’ laugh when I read Eddie gets the sads about her cheating too.. Sure he does Le. He could care less what or who you do as long as you leave your amex home while you do it.
SHE MUST BE THE LAST TO KNOW…WHAT A FOOL.
No one has mentioned, I don’t think, that LR has said Schaena is lying….about what, that’s what I’m curious about. The overlap or that it happened at all? If she doubts they ever had an affair, she’s more delusional than I think anyone realized.
And there are pictures to prove he was with Scheana. Just Google.
Why can’t this woman just shut up and fade to the background? Now, she has to eat crow because of all the interviews she and Eddie have given saying they did not take cheating lightly and they couldn’t help falling in love. They both made it sound like they were drawn to each other and it was fate. Truth always comes out. He has always been a serial cheater and she just wanted what she wanted at any cost to everybody else. Her response after Scheana and Brandi’s revelations on t.v. is “you can’t believe everything you see and hear on t.v.”. No joke! That also includes your rants, Leann, from you and Eddie about your true love. Brandi said he had her convinced every day that their marriage was solid and she was happy. He told her each day how pretty she was up to the day he and Leann hit the front page of magazine. He told her it was a one time thing and they started therapy. Then, Scheana came forward. That’s when Brandi booted him out. So, the spin Leann puts on the whole affair has been nothing but a lie. Surprise!
I bet her paranoia is in overdrive probably making him extra miserable. One woman claims he threw a party the day Leann went to “rehab” with about 30 people at Emerald Bay. The man is doing the same thing with her that he did with Brandi and she can no longer hide the truth. So, instead of remaining quiet she is going to give more interviews making a bigger fool of herself and making people dislike her more. Where are her pr people when she does this crap?
I guess she didn’t get the sympathy she wanted from her fake rehab stint so now she tosses in the word suicide.
From ABC news:
“Rimes checked into a rehab center last summer to treat stress, anxiety and depression. The singer said she worried she might take her own life.
“I think any smart person would know that it is always a possibility that you could always get that sad and deep,” she said. “I worried that was a possibility [but] I know I would never.”
She is mentally ill.
So basically it’s not a possibility. Leann, please go back and get your GED or something.
IMO agree! Yet her enabling mommy and “bonus” daddy, her PR people, her “friends” do nothing to get this little girl help! I guess money is more important to these people than her mental and emotional health. They are just as bad as she is! Maybe more so!
I agree…I think she throws anything out there for attention: Eddie could cheat, check; suicidal thoughts, check. I feel sorry for people who actually go through these things. Leann just uses them for sympathy.
That’s what pisses me off most, brin.
She has no problem casually throwing something like this out there when it suits her need for attention.
Disgusting.
She changed her story time and time again but yet nothing about this till AFTER the scheana/Brandi sitdown.
Another desperate scheme for attention.
Sick Bitch.
Yep…can’t have Brandi and Scheana get attention, she has to bring it back to her and she will use anything to get it.
Can’t we just send these two along with Lance Armstrong to some island somewhere and never to hear/see them ever again? I am so over them!
Don’t forget Lardassian! She needs to go far, far away too. Forever.
Gees, is there an island large enough for all of them and her a-$? LOL
Again, refresh my memory, isn’t this the woman that has stated she is very private. I am going to go look up the definition of privacy.. one more time.
If he hasn’t already cheated on her while they’ve been married, the question isn’t a matter of if he will cheat on her, but when. The suggestion that he worries she will cheat is ridiculous and an obvious attempt at deflection. Why she continues to give these “I’m a victim” interviews is beyond me. I guess the ones she did with Katie C and GR didn’t win her any sympathy, so she’s added the suicidal thing into the mix. When was she suicidal? When she was healthy and happy but wanted to be healthier and happier, or when she went to a “rehab” that let her leave whenever she wanted and somehow miraculously compressed a month of treatment into a couple of weeks at most? Was she actually suicidal when she was on perpetual vacation, renewing her vows after only a year of marriage and posting hundreds of photos of herself and children who aren’t hers on her website? So is she lying about being happy and living a perfect, blissful life with the man of her dreams, or is she lying about being suicidal? Either way, she’s basically outed herself as a liar once again. Seriously, if she’s suicidal, should she be around those children at all?
All very good points. Well said.
OMG yes Deanne, very well said.
OMG I watched the video on ET… She is high as a kite!!!
I think she did this latest interview to get the word “suicide” out. Whether she’s serious or using the word to manipulate, or both, I think she wants to change something by using the word.
HaHa! ROL is saying that LR had the angelfish Tshirt she wore during her last papwhoring session made herself. She claimed a friend sent it to her. Just another example of her lying?? And harassing Brandi?? And LR’s “friends” keep telling Brandi to get over it and move on! What a bunch of hypocrites!
I’m curious who their source is for that. Who of her friends would tell them that? Is Liz doing her dirty? Wouldn’t surprise me. Though, it’s ROL…they could just be making that up, right?
She’s not high. She sounds normal to me. Her face is like a mask, though. It’s so botoxed and has fillers. She can’t smile normally. I don’t get how people her age keep screwing up their faces.
Why would someone start promoting an album in December/January when it doesn’t come out until April. It’s bizarre. Everyone will be sick to hell of hearing from her and her cheating/victim/depression/child star shtick and have zero interest in the album by the time it comes out so many months later. You hype the album the month or weeks before it comes out or perform the first single a few months before.
Or is she just out there because Brandi’s book is coming out in a few weeks and she’s trying to do interference before the Brandi interviews start? That’s what I think it is.
I agree about LR’s face. Whatever she has done to her upper mouth area (lip and teeth enlargement plus smile line fillers plus IDEK what??), it’s so distracting. She always looks as if she’s sucking on a hard candy, but there is no candy. This is just the way her mouth is now.
Why would an acclaimed singer screw with her mouth?
Also, to give fair credit, LR had rather fabulous skin before. Glowy and healthy. Now she looks incredibly tired.
did you not see how tiny her pupils were?
If she would start singing again, seriously, she might have a chance at saving herself. But focusing on that looser guy is a dead end; she will keep going nuts if she thinks he has anything to offer her but heart ache…
LeAnn mentioned she was a childhood star (implying that brings difficulty) and how not many could understand that. I’m not shedding tears for either LeAnn or Jodie Foster, who each likely made enough money by adulthood that could last them most if not all their lives. There are several country singers who started out as kids who did not become whining train wrecks – Brenda Lee and Dolly Parton come to mind. Brenda was a teenage singing star in the ’50s, and Dolly cut her first record at 13 (was on TV much younger than that). Spare me the “I was a childhood star” drama, please! I’m already over this whole cheating fiasco that they continue to hash out, at the expense of those two poor boys.
I’ve always been of the mind that Eddie simply ignores LeAnn and gets what financial gain he can out of the relationship but after watching the Nancy O’Dell interview I’ve come to a different conclusion.
I’m convinced Eddie is in complete charge of LeAnn’s mental degradation. She’s leapt off the cliff of sanity and Eddie is waiting in the bottom of the canyon like the Road Runner holding a knife to the inflatable matress as the Coyote makes his imminent decent.
Eddie intends to be the conservator of her estate while visiting her once a week in the asylum….all the while reassuring her that her mental health is his primary concern.
Grifter par excellence (from the French).
Gas lighting at it’s finest.
LR seems disjointed and sooo defensive in that interview snippet– it’s more like she’s on the witness stand than giving a fluff interview. I don’t think she has any love for Nancy O’Dell either.
Yep, I have to say that I kind of feel for LeAnn in that she is, in fact, married to a cheater…LeAnn is somewhat sensitive & insecure and Eddie is not the kind of husband she needs. Too bad, but in time, things may change drastically. I have always been suspicious that Eddie clung to her for financial reasons, too. I just hope these two don’t add more to the heap by having a child.
Hey, LeAnn, you can brag all u want about your perfect, happy, marriage and being a “bonus mom” but none of that covers up the fact that you played a part in breaking up a marriage and a family. Eddie was cheating before you as well as after he met you. Do you really think he’s not cheating now. Come onnnnnnnnn.
I’d be worried too! LOL
leann already knows eddie is cheating.
her body language and facial expression are easily read as defensive and that of a liar..unable to hold eye contact, looking all over the place when answering, the aggressive hand gestures.
“your interview is the first interview that.in.in. forever that anyone has even asked me about her(brandi)”… “i’ve really never talked about her.” –WOW. delusional much?
“I don’t even have a child of my own to add into that equation” –ME ME ME! MEEEE!!
“at least I have a filter” –this biotch really is crazy.
“everyone thinks they’ve revealed soo much about me.” — I can now feel the vindictive evilness in my living room. you can tell she wants to make someone pay.
Also–I think it stands a chance she was on something as well.
I hope Brandi uses all this crap Leann is spewing to get her boys away from crazy horse.
If they cheat with you, they’ll cheat on you..
Eddie is worried that Leann will cheat on him? Leann is joking right? First of all, who is Leann going to cheat with? She is always photograpged with the same 5 people. We already saw her make out with Lizzy, from the looks of that Eddie didn’t have any objections. Dave doesn’t look interested in Leann at all, it’s like he doesn’t even know Leann is there. Secondly, where is Leann going to find the time to cheat on Eddie? She tweets 24/7 and when she isn’t tweeting she is posting blogs and photos of Brandi’s kids to her website.
Maybe Leann heard Eddie wrong, what he really said was he is worried about his allowance.
Leann tries to make it seem like Eddie cares because he talks about wanting to cheat on her. He is manipulating Leann. He brings up the cheating to manipulate Leann into giving him gifts.
I truly wish that as a caring human being I could wish MeAnn the best, but her constant “explanations” for her adultery has totally turned me off. She really needs to shut her thin lipped mouth. I’m so over her.
