LeAnn Rimes on her weight loss: ‘I’m glad to have a little more meat on me now’

Here are some newish photos of LeAnn Rimes performing in Hammersmith (UK) last night. This outfit is definitely more flattering than some of her previous concert costumes, although I’m not sure why the tunic is unbuttoned like that and why her bra is hanging out. In case you’re still wondering if LeAnn is “acting out” with her “illnesses” to get her husband’s attention, she did tweet the below photo with the message “This is not my trip. Going to see if it’s broken.” That was earlier today.

So, I imagine she will find an excuse – any excuse at this point – to come back to LA and have Eddie take care of her. In the meantime, we can enjoy LeAnn’s new interview. She sat down with Closer (a British tabloid) to discuss body image:

From scary skinny to toned and healthy, LeAnn Rimes has put her weight struggles behind her and is proud of her banging new body. The 31 year wife of Eddie Cibrian has opened up about her shock over seeing how she had slimmed down and how she managed to put weight back on.

“I look back at those photos and think, ‘Wow, maybe I was a little thin,’ but at the time, I didn’t think anything of it. I’m glad to have a little more meat on me now,” LeAnn told Closer magazine.

She said that she dropped pounds after dealing with the stress of her hubby’s ex, Brandi Glanville, and the on-line backlash she was fighting against.

“That was just the way my body was handling the stress. Some people stress-eat and I did the complete opposite.”

LeAnn said that she sought help in rehab for her issues.

“So I chose to take time out [in rehab] and focus on me.”

LeAnn said she’s a fan of British food, telling Closer what she likes to eat.

“I love tucking into fish and chips, shepherd’s pie and Wagamama’s. I try to eat healthily, but I love food too much to give up on anything. Working out helps me focus and I love to box.”

While her relationship with Brandi might be strained, LeAnn says that she and her husband Eddie are closer than ever but that they’re not planning on expanding their brood.

“I feel very blessed to have two wonderful boys,” she says about step sons Mason and Jake Cibrian. “We have talked about having more kids, but right now I love being a ‘bonus mum,’ so there isn’t any rush.”

Do you really think LeAnn was “handling the stress” (the stress of Single White Female-ing Brandi?) by losing weight? Granted, some people are like that. Some people get really stressed out and they can’t eat or they work off nervous energy by exercising or whatever. But I wonder if LeAnn is really one of those people. I think she got so thin because she wanted to get that thin, because she wanted to have Brandi’s body. Because Brandi had told her, long ago, that Eddie likes really thin women. But whatever, she does look better nowadays and that’s a good thing.

    Yeah, whatever HeeHaw.

  2. Quinn Parker says:

    Well, luckily for her…she looks like crap either way.

  3. ncboudicca says:

    I’m so confused by the outfit

  4. Birdie says:

    Let me just say that I find all of her illnesses and injuries suspicious. Her outfits look horrible, she should get a better stylist.

  5. heidi says:

    According to Brandi Eddie likes thin women, but Scheana wasn’t thin nor was his other fiance Julianne Morris…so don’t know if Eddie liking thin women is something Eddie would agree with or was something made up by Brandi.

    • respect says:

      Ed likes women in general

      • Arock says:

        Edit- *rich women* in general. Scheena may have been a waitress but she wasn’t a forever piece. Priorities are Him, Money/easy life, keeping leann off his back, and side poon. And day old sushi. (See: side poon)

    • jbear75 says:

      true, but Scheana and julianne are also brunettes so maybe he likes his blondes twiggy, and his brunettes with a little more curve? otherwise, he likes his main piece skinny, and his side pieces with a little padding.

    • Glaughy says:

      Scheana is tiny!

  6. Macey says:

    Funny how the weight loss is suddenly Brandi’s/stress fault but back when she was that thin she was claiming that she was naturally like that and just lost her baby fat.
    The girl srsly needs to take notes n her own lies so she can keep up, or at least keep copies of her old interviews so she gets the stories strait.

    • brin says:

      She lies all the time, no way can she keep up with it.

      • janie says:

        Lord help this woman.. She deliberately hurt her hand, possibly broke it? She’s got bigger problems than Brandi. She is truely pathetic!

    • emmie_a says:

      Great point. As much as she lies about everything, I’m just as sick of her blaming everyone else for her problems. But of course she would put this on Brandi so we could all say, ‘poor LeAnn.’

      • joanne says:

        yes, it was brandi’s fault that leann was cheating with eddie. brandi not divorcing eddie fast enough was very hard for leann. if brandi had just gone away faster, it would’nt be so stressful for leann. that girl is a real nutter.

      • NerdMomma says:

        Frankly, @joanne, I think you’ve summed it up best. LeAnn A-hole Rimes has the audacity to say that was stressful for HER???? Has she ever once pondered the stress on Brandi or the two little boys she claims to love so much?

      • respect says:

        My 4 year old takes more personal responsibility than our heroine

  7. Walt Jr says:

    Trick gets dressed in the dark. Truth.

    Weren’t they practically giving away these tickets on Twitter? Like for the equivalent of $9.00 US? Pretty much begging to fill seats. 18 years in the business and begging to fill seats. Sad.

    Does she forget that she claimed she “lost her baby fat”? Now the weight loss was caused by stress. Honey, if you gonna lie, at least be good at it!

  8. briargal says:

    She can’t keep her lies straight! When she lost all the weight, she claimed she just lost her “baby fat” and that was just a normal thing. And she was just soooo happy with her life. Now with the weight gain, she tells us she was so stressed and that it is all Brandi’s fault. Lies either way. Can’t believe anything this loser says.

  9. brin says:

    She’ll be in a full body cast soon.

    • respect says:

      Ediot can be the prince von ahole to jer zsa zsa.

    • Sugar says:

      a full body cast with “the only one that matters” written all over it. the hand story w/b interesting eh? I don’t recall any self defense classes on this tour.
      just check her twit tweet she “dropped” a weight on her hand because….she wants to cancel & get the hell home

      • Lady D says:

        She is doing the same thing my ex was doing while addicted. If she continues on this path next will be job loss. I can recall 2 or 3 episodes where my ex did ugly physical damage to himself for the meds. He didn’t seem to realize or care that he destroyed his own once awesome reputation in a highly skilled and dangerous field. Is it worth it Leann? Are you having fun? Understand, you are going to wind up alone. How many people have you alienated in the past year alone?

  10. original me says:

    Don’t most people lose their “baby fat” when they are about 2? You don’t lose your baby fat when you are 30. It’s just such a dumb sounding excuse for losing weight.

    • UghInsomnia says:

      Not that I believe anything this chick (LeAnn) says, but I started thinning out around 25 or so. I wasn’t trying to lose weight, but my body shape definitely started changing and I started losing the fullness in my face. I wouldn’t call it my “baby fat,” though.

    • gogoGorilla says:

      Most kids lose their body fat when they hit puberty. Emotionally that’s about right for her.

      Also, isn’t that her wedding ring finger? With no wedding ring? I see she has Ediot’s name or initials tattooed there. Probably the only permanency about the situation….

    • Karolina says:

      When I was around 24, 25 my face thinnend out tremendously. I had such a round baby face in my early twenties and that really changed

  11. Beth says:

    She looks unhappy.

  12. jbear75 says:

    Eddie will be stepping out in 3…2…

    • ncmagnolia says:

      Girl, he already has! Lol.

    • Karma says:

      Actually that might have been the cause of her punching a wall/dropping a weight on her hand.

      When Eddie went back to the states, it was his turn with the boys, which LeAnn described them as “wild” to be w/dad.

      Except there was a surprise/one day only visit from Grandma Glanville, and the boys wanted to take Grandma out to a nice dinner. Soooo….that means Eddie was free since the kids were with Brandi.

      And of course, LeAnn comes up injured on Eddie’s kid-free/leash-free night.

      Wonder if those blinds about LeAnn having the vehicles bugged are true? Or if it was just Brandi’s tweets that tipped her off?

      Anyway, you were all right….lol 😉

  13. Holly says:

    So now she lost all of the weight because she was stressed… how does that explain the purchase of approximately 100+ bikinis and wearing them all over Hell’s half acre?

    So, stress causes LeAnn to feel nauseous, but also to buy tens of thousands of dollars worth of spiked heels, skinny jeans and booty shorts too? That is some really targeted stress.

  14. briargal says:

    Did she hurt her hand hitting a wall in frustration from EC not answering his phone??? Hehehe!

  15. jasperkitty says:

    Her opinions, views and remarks are ‘up and down like a whore’s drawers’….oh, wait a minute!

  16. Mew says:

    She’s the same-ish size as she was when she did her “miracle transformation” and then she called old self fat. Good if she actually managed to change her view but I doubt it – there certainly are the same insecurities going in her head as before.

    Plus, she lost the weight purposefully by training, she said it herself.

  17. MonicaQ says:

    I play football and get hurt less than her. What in the world.

    Is she going to blame the extra painful crap she took this morning on Brandi too? I always get the icks on when she shoves herself into her step-sons’ lives in interviews. “OMGZ I LOVE BEING A MOM…I mean “Bonus Mom” tee hee.” As someone that had a step father–abuse aside–there was that line we both understood and were content to have it.

  18. Deanne says:

    My other post disappeared so hopefully it doesn’t double post. LeAnn always says that everything is exactly how she wants it. She is always blessed and happy. Her marriage is completely perfect and utter bliss. Her album failing was always the plan. Not having any kids of her own is perfect because she always just wanted to co-opt another woman’s kids and be a bonus mom anyway. She’s ecstatic to have gained weight, just like she was thrilled to have lost her “baby fat” through healthy eating and exercising. No matter what is going on and no matter how many times she contradicts herself, one thing will always stay the same. She will always lie and it will always be about how happy she is.

  19. Nycboots says:

    She has “bingo” arms at 31. Ouch.

    • Shelby says:

      Bwahahaha!

    • Lisa says:

      Arms aren’t that hard to build either. She needs to lift some weights.

    • Holly says:

      Ooh, ooh, I want to know what “bingo arms” are?!

      • mrspatrickbateman says:

        I’m fairly certain that means arms that would belong to a bunch of old ladies at a bingo table.

      • Nycboots says:

        The term refers to the loose skin around the tricep. When one raises the arm in Bingo it flaps around bc there is no muscle tone, like you would find on an older, menopausal woman. They are also called “bat wings”.

      • Funcakes says:

        Oy! I imagine a woman around 60 with a cigarette hanging out the side of her mouth with smoker’s cough, smells of cheap perfume and wear long fingernails. She wears a sleeveless shirt that she can bearly button and has a voice deeper than Vin Diesel. She raises her arm to scream “Bingo!” with her arm fat flapping in the air.

  20. Dana M. says:

    She will work this hand thing for all it’s worth= Good pain drugs, lots of whining and plenty of sympathy. She’s such a joke. She can’t keep her story straight about her weight, truth is she is getting thick again and she really doesn’t like it no matter what she says. She’s just not a happy person and we all know it, she just lies about it.

    • Stacey says:

      Injury = drugs

      There are a few blind items about exactly that.

      Keep an eye out for the next injury, er visit or illness – it’s just around the corner.

      • brin says:

        …along with her dealer.

      • littlestar says:

        Excuse me for being dense here, but how is her finger injury related to drugs? Could you explain, please? 🙂

      • Erinn says:

        @littlestar
        I’m guessing because if she’s injured she can get legal pain meds. Which would totally make sense looking back at all her injuries and sickness and dental ’emergencies’.

      • Christin says:

        MJ and Elvis are good examples — Dental work and/or dermatology. Being hospitalized for “eye problems”. Lots of illnesses or injuries for relatively young people can signal issues. It can be an excuse to get meds.

    • Holly says:

      This is making me wonder if she was on Adderall too? Maybe that’s why she had to go to rehab for “anxiety”? Maybe “bonus mom” was borrowing from the bonus kids?

      That would sure explain where all the weight went and possibly why it’s suddenly returned.

      • Peanut says:

        Totally. It’s a page straight out of the Lohan playbook with the “prescribed” adderral and all the dental work for legal pain meds.

  21. SouthernGal says:

    Sigh…another LeAnn Rimes book of lies. Now she is claiming to be happy with a little more meat on her bones. Just last year, she stated that the weight loss was due to losing baby fat and that she eats a ton. Now it was due to Brandi (because everything is B’s fault) and stress. This chic is unbelievable.

    Let’s be real here. She starved herself to be stick thin and even if she did eat as much as she claims doesn’t help if you chase the food with a handful of laxatives. Her current weight is her healthy weight.

    If you have to constantly talk about being blissfully happy it just means the opposite. She is miserable. It shows on her face, body language and even when she’s maniac tweeting.

    Everything that she is going through now is rightfully deserved. Karma is just now getting started with her. Trust me it will get worse because she is such a vile human being.

    • TG says:

      God I would never try to lose weight with laxatives or bulimia. All I ever think about is what happened to Terri Schiavo. Laxatives flush out valuable nutrients along with the unwanted food. How does this She-Man get away with all this crap? It is very interesting how i we NEVER hear Ediot’a voice yet we know he 100% approves of her behavior. I think people with HPD and NPD can be very damaging to the innocent people around them. I can’t believe a judge would allow such a person around children that are not even hers.

  22. Kara says:

    What exactly am I looking at, at that hand picture? I don’t see an “injury” I see a puffy balloon hand with sausage fingers like when the doctors office people blow up a latex glove to make you laugh. Is that the same thing? …because Leann sure makes me laugh….

    & to quote dlisted (even know he was describing someone else, I just think the words are fitting) she looks like “The Stay Puft Marshmallow Whore”. Lollssssss

    • Christin says:

      Looks like a bruised knuckle, plain and simple. What’s next – a hangnail requiring emergency care?

      • Deanne says:

        She could claim it was becoming gangrenous and say she almost died. At least it would get her another trip to the ER and some of her special “meds” to help her deal with the debilitating pain.

    • briargal says:

      @Deanne– On her twitter she makes it sound like she is dying. The pain–OMG.OMG.OMG. What a wuss! But I’m sure someone made sure she has pain meds.

      • Deanne says:

        She goes from one extreme to another. No one has ever been as happy and in love as she has and no one has ever felt the extreme physical pain that she has.If she was in so much pain, she wouldn’t be tweeting. She wouldn’t be able to hold her phone. She’s a drama queen and liar. She’d find a way to turn a mosquito bite into a medical emergency. OMG, OMG, I broke a nail. Heading to the ER for meds.

  23. insomniac says:

    That tunic looks like something that fit her in her super-skinny days but doesn’t button properly anymore.

    Giant “whatever” to everything else. What, she’s lying about the reasons for her weight loss? And she’s got yet another medical crisis? Must be a day ending in a “Y”.

    • Funcakes says:

      Exactly. She is wearing clothes that use to flow on her. LR needs to stick to clothes that is 75% spandex.

  24. MrsBPitt says:

    I lost the weight because of the stress Brandi put me through when I had an affair with her husband. Then the stress Brandi put me through because Eddie went back to his wife and children so Brandi forced me to stalk her husband and throw money at him until Brandi threw him out on his ass. Then the stress that Brandi put me through when she didn’t understand that I am the kids bonus mom and she is only their birth mother. And if Brandi had stopped trying to copy my style after she wore it first…I wouldn’t have been so stressed. She would also respond to my asshole tweets, I mean, who does that! I could go on, but I guess, we can all agree, that Brandi has been the cause of ALL my stress.
    Signed: LeAnn Delusional Rimes

    • Masque says:

      LOL! Yep, that’s it in a nut(job)shell. 🙂

    • Deanne says:

      You left out Cibrian. She’s really, really proud to be a Cibrian and Brandi making you leave that out will probably cause her a lot of stress. Her full name is Margaret LeAnn Delusional Rimes Cibrian. and she is extremely happy with her life.

  25. Relli says:

    You know what is hilarious about this story? Radar ran it two days in a row and kept pushing it towards the top of their feed for both of those days. Like it wasn’t getting enough traction on that first day, so they kept it visible for some unknown reason!?!?!?! You know who else’s stories they do that to? The Kardashians of course. Hmmmm.

    • Jana J. says:

      What, no cast on her hand? Oh my. I bet that bummed her out! I mean after all, Brandi had a cast so she deserves one too. A band-aid wont get her near the sympathy, but she’ll get as many miles/tweets as she can out of this.

  26. Rita says:

    I hope someone has the Vine of LeAnn slamming her hand in the car door screaming, “Eddie my love, I’m injured” as he disappeared into the airport terminal.

    Vines repeat over and over so the image of LeAnn smashing her hand every few seconds gives me the giggles.

  27. Anthea says:

    This reminds me of when Geri Halliwell started to gain weight again and released a load of stories about loving her curves, needing to conceive etc etc.

    What annoys me is that it adds to a totally warped perception of body image that already exists in the media. A variety of body types can be beautiful, but unfortunately, Leann does not look great right now, so she’s not doing anything useful by claiming to ‘love her curves’, just appearing to desperately pretend that some minor weight gain doesn’t matter to her. UGH.

    I’m going to cleanse my brain by looking at some photos of Monica Belluci 😉

  28. NerdMomma says:

    So what about the weight gain? Isn’t the story here the broken (?) hand? How does one break one’s hand other than punching a wall? Why is she tweeting a picture of her injured hand with no wedding ring? This is what we need to be talking about people!

    • Macey says:

      I have a feeling she probably punched the wall when she couldnt get hold of Eddie on the phone. Her story of dropping a weight on it or whatever it was is just another lie. Someone on GR even noticed the scuffing at the knuckles like what would happen if you punched a wall.
      Can you just imagine the 3rd degree he is going to get when she does get home…LOL

      • NerdMomma says:

        I’m getting the impression things are BAD with her & Eddie. What is that little tattoo on her ring finger, does anyone know?

      • Macey says:

        I didnt even notice the tat there if thats what it is. It almost looks like a cursive “E” from what I can see when I enlarged the pic but its hard to tell. It wouldnt surprise me if she punched the wall and then put Eddie’s initials around the bruise, It could just be drawn on there.

        I think it must be bad too and you know it will only get worse from here. Once the true psycho raises its ugly head its hard to go back. He knew this was a long time coming but probably didnt think it would be this severe. Btwn this and the suicide shirt and other pics, she’s definitely holding that over his head.

      • Funcakes says:

        She has a number of tattoos dedicated to Eddie. Funny, no pictures of tattoos dedicated to Leann on Eddie. Guess she’s not the only that matters. LOL.

      • KatieD says:

        @Nerdmomma- I got curious as to what that finger tat says, and according to an old HuffPo article I found, she has an ‘E’ there for his name, and Eddie has an ‘L’ on his ring finger for hers. So apparently she did talk him into at least one tiny Leann tat…lol.

  29. Happy21 says:

    OMG her FACE!! WTF has she done to herself? She looks so tight and puffy. Good LORD!

  30. tricklady says:

    Im so happy Eddie can be with his side piece in peace, but not for long Eddie she’s heading home. When is he going to get caught? Its going to be SO WONDERFUL!

  31. Holly says:

    Maybe Christina Aguilera sent the weight she lost to LeAnn?! Man these people yo-yo.

  32. mrspatrickbateman says:

    As bad as her weight gain and face looks, her outfit is horrible! I just can’t make sense of any of it. It looks like a really long black tunic, she decided to pair with brown leather pants (another awesome choice when you’ve gained weight) and black open toed shoes. It’s all horrible. The tunic and pants don’t go together and I hate brown and black together.

  33. shiloh says:

    she looks horrible! i don’t think this is her healthy weight. she looks bloated and puffy. the best she ever looked was when she was with dean, shortly before she got with eddie. she was a healthy weight and her face actually looked relatively pretty. now she looks like an old rich spinster with a hot young boy toy she pays to be her husband. she looks like she’s puffed up on meds and had a million surgeries. she’s just gross all around.

    • Funcakes says:

      Dean definitely help keep the crazy at bay. Leann looked healthy in every way. Plus she was at a healthy size without being supper thin.
      And you rarely heard anything about her like you do now.She looked peaceful and calm.

      Was he that bad? Does she regret her decision at all? Maybe she did fall out of love with Dean but is it worth the obvious hell she living now?

  34. Sway says:

    Quote: “I feel very blessed to have two wonderful boys,” she says about step sons Mason and Jake Cibrian. “We have talked about having more kids…..”

    Okay, WHY does she always HAVE to make it sound like she gave birth to those two boys? It’s wicked, mean and just wrong!

  35. Elisabeth says:

    I have a theory on her possible broken finger

    Eddie: i’m flying back to see the boys
    Leanne: I supppose you’ll see HER
    Eddie: don’t start
    Leanne: NO I will start…you don’t care about me *tries to pull wedding ring off
    Eddie: knock it off
    Leanne: I can’t get this *tug tug* off
    Eddie: I’ll call you when I land
    Leanne: I can’t get this ring off! I hate you!

  36. qtpi says:

    Can anyone help me figure out how she would even have this injury based on her description of events?

    If she is capable of harming herself like this on purpose she is in need of serious help.

    If the sh*t hits the fan Brandi better scoop those boys up and disappear.

  37. apsutter says:

    That outfit is freaking atrocious. She doesn’t have one ounce of style.

  38. kim says:

    Her appearance does look more attractive than before.

    • apsutter says:

      That top pic is just so bad. She’s starting to look the way she did when she first came on the scene as a pre-teen with all her baby fat.

  39. suhon says:

    She must have quit the Adderall!!

  40. skuddles says:

    I think the weight loss was due to an eating disorder – triggered by her attempt to be as thin as Brandi, and hold onto Eddie’s wavering attention. And once she stopped doing whatever it was she did to drop the weight it came back full force. Maybe she’s starting to realize that thin or un-thin, Eddie is never going to love her to the exclusion of all others… he will, however, always be madly in love with her bank account.

  41. Karolina says:

    I think in reality it must kill herself that she gained weight. She is not fat by any means now, she is just average, slim I would say. However her face is so so puffy and this doesn’t look healthy. Eiter she is taking some meds or she is still a bulimic (which I think she is)

  42. Cirque28 says:

    What’s up with her face? She has never had a moon face or a (slight) double chin before. Not in adulthood. Fillers? Prednisone? I have no idea.

    Pre-Eddie, she was this sporty, tomboyish girl with a certain youthful prettiness. Her weight fluctuated some, but she always looked healthy. Then Eddie appeared, the Brandification commenced, and the end result for LeAnn is odd. Not body shaming her (her weight is fine), but she just doesn’t look well. Puffed up face, bra out, constantly trying to wear heels so high they hurt, endless injuries and illnesses… strange. Eddie and LeAnn sooo deserve to be together forever, but when a man’s presence in your life kills your looks this hard, it’s a bad sign.

  43. Funcakes says:

    When is she going to understand that whatever she does Eddie no long has a f@ck to give.
    You notice there is no documentation of Eddie claiming that Leann is the love of his life.

  44. Narak says:

    She looks like David Lee Roth in the top photo.

    • Funcakes says:

      She wishes she was David Lee. At least he’s a kick ass performer. lol

      • Bitca says:

        Wait… I did listen to LR sing on a couple of videos. If album sales tanked, it was not due to poor critical reception, or a lack of talent as a vocalist, performer, or songwriter.

        Rimes has botched & nearly buried her career as a result of incessant public screw ups related to being a compulsive, desperately insecure headcase. Had she the sense to hire & listen to a 1/2-way decent PR person, she’d have stayed away from social media & followed the unspoken Hollywood/Entertainment industry tradition; i.e, that after breaking up a marriage or committed relationship, quietly scoop up your new guy— don’t comment, & make a baby asap—a la Angelina Jolie, etc. Even Julia Roberts did fairly well, despite her idiotic (& still remembered) Tee-shirt photo op.

        If richer/more famous than the original spouse or partner, you’re an obvious upgrade ;-). Be demure, at least *talk* Babies, & leave the newly acquired man to take any heat; as a male, the public will give him infinitely more latitude, & perceptions of you as a self-indulgent, man-stealing Scarlet Woman should gradually fade. Wish I was being 100% facetious.

  45. briargal says:

    Oooh! Just read on LR’s twitter something interesting. Someone tweeted to her and said “You gotta stop punching the women hitting on your hubby” Her response was “what women it’s the cute gay boys I get jealous of”…

    I just don’t know what to make of this comment. Any ideas??

    • Bread and Circuses says:

      She is making a joke.

      She’s also deflecting, but mostly, it’s just a joke.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if there wasn’t some truth to her comment. She did after all cancel on the gay mens choir gig a few months ago, and she was the main header there. I think she is jealous of anyone and everyone that he gives any time and attention too, that includes the “babies” If it’s not all about her being the center of the universe then she will remind him she is “the only one that matters” It says so on her foot as a constant reminder to him.

    Why does it alway look like she is straining to take a crap when she sings? When she was on the laxatives (supposedly), that could have been bad news.

  47. Jayna says:

    This is the heaviest LeAnn has been in years. She wasn’t even this weight when she met Eddie before the affair. She’s not fat now, but it’s not her usual weight and of course her cheeks need to go.

    LeAnn in 2006 and it’s about what she looked like in 2007 also except longer hair – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okY_QeZEtj4

    • Cirque28 says:

      Yep. She was in great natural shape back then, not remotely chubby or flat chested (despite Brandi’s snarking in her book). And after all, that’s the LR Eddie fell in love with, not this messy neurotic hypochondriac who is a different weight every week.

      • Jayna says:

        And this was LeAnn in 2008 below with Bon Jovi. She met Eddie the beginning of 2009. She really had been like this for years, a nice, slender but healthy weight, just not that bizarre weight loss that she started doing in 2010/2011, starving herself to frightening bone skinny and excessive workouts.

      @Jayna
      Actually, they met on the set of “Northern Lights” for filming in October 2008. The movie aired on Saturday, March 21, 2009.

    Didn’t Brandi injure her hand a few weeks ago? SWFing again.

    Here is something from the smoking gun thanks to Just Jen.

    Love how she throws in the alcohol between items instead of clumping them together

    • Jennifer12 says:

      She doesn’t even show up for concerts and she has demands?

    • Christin says:

      The venue has to provide OTC stuff like Pepto “Bismal”? And how much from that long list of stuff ends up tossed (other than beverages)?

  50. Jennifer12 says:

    Leann’s craziness and addictions can no longer be hidden. It really is like Charlie Sheen, who everyone thought great and talented and his ex was just a witch until he couldn’t hide his insanity any longer. Leann’s issues have come out in public, and on her face. She wasn’t attractive as a skeleton, but there’s something odd with her face- my guess is meds and alcohol. She still runs around with her clothing half undone to be provocative because she doesn’t see the physical difference in the mirror. I just hope Eddie really is finally protecting the boys and Brandi from her craziness. Their divorce would finally give the kids and Brandi much deserved peace, after the terrible years Leann and Eddie put them through. Her need for attention and constant injuries and illnesses are signs of real disturbance. She should not be allowed around those kids.

  51. bobbiesue says:

    I never really followed LR’s career too closely because I wasn’t the biggest country music fan. But one day years ago (it appears) I was watching t.v and saw this video and thought it was amazing. I loved the song, her singing, the style of the video the sort of “girl power” vibe/message and was really impressed with her voice and thought her body looked fantastic.

    http://www.yallwire.com/player/leannrimesnothinbettertodo.html?detect_bitrate=_2000

    I remembered her from Blue being an awkward, sort of pudgy kid and thought: wow, she really grew up! I was so impressed. And, then, nothing more really with her career after that and all this nonsense since she met Eddie! Now it appears she got nothin’ better to do than talk about Brandi endlessly and make up injuries?

    • Christin says:

      It puzzles me, too. I thought she came across with a conceited air underneath her niceness as a teen, but assumed she grew up and had become halfway normal during her early 20s. I did not know about the allegations her dad made after she sued him, the Tic Toc song lyrics or how much was really going on with the affair and marriage until the past year. Every time there is a new headline, someone else probably discovers the level of middle school drama that seems to be the norm.

  52. Leslie says:

    So is she going to cancel Switzerland because of pain meds? Countdown….

  53. apsutter says:

    Both of her two longest fingers are bruised exactly at the knuckle. I’d bet a thousand bucks that b*tch punched a wall during one of her crazy moments.

    • Jane says:

      SH said she injured them with a weight. Sure Leann, riiight.

    • Jennifer12 says:

      And you know that crazy b— was pointedly putting it on blast on twitter to make a point to Eddie. Great life choices, there, Eddie. Stop making Brandi and the boys suffer along with you. They didn’t ask for you to bring this level of crazy into their lives.

      • briargal says:

        Also, Eddie, don’t let the POS blackmail you into staying by threatening to harm herself if you leave. SHE is the ONLY one responsible for her actions. Noone else. (Except for the reason she is the way she is. I blame her biomom for a vast majority of her issues. But then there comes a time when a person has grow up and be an adult.) So it’s time, Eddie, to get that craziness out of your life. NOW! TODAY!

  54. LeAnn Stinks says:

    LeAnn is so FOS.

    Oh wait, no she isn’t, the Exlax took care of that and her excess weight.

    No wonder her nostrils keep growing, it’s all that lying.

  55. Michele says:

    I’m reading these articles cos I can’t stop but she’s just so beyond words for simple ppl like me.. I’ve run out of things to say other then I love you Celebitchy!

    Let’s just read this too & laff:

  56. Jane says:

    Leann is featured in OK Magazine and also In Touch Weekly. IT is so kissing her behind by saying…get this… Hooray! Leann’s curves are back! She is Fit and Fab. Dear Lord…WTF!

  57. eliza says:

    If she split the difference between the bony stage and now, she would be just right.

    • Jane says:

      I’m not certain that Leann can do anything to herself to make her “just right”. I’m not trying to negate you, just saying she is so out of control that she is darned if she does and darned if she doesn’t in pretty much everything she says and does.

  58. Christin says:

    How does it help one’s C-list (if that), part-time career to whine and complain about temporary bumps and bruises, colds, etc.? While it may bring a little bit of sympathy, it risks putting off a larger number of people.

    Let me diagnose the latest round of problems as a WORK ALLERGY. Fine during fun times; averse to working a few days on occasion.

    • claire says:

      You know she’s gonna need a vacation. Girl just worked 10 days straight!

      Or I should say she worked 5 days, with cancellations and pub crawls mixed in.

      • briargal says:

        But she is soooo overworked!! It’s a full time job keeping track of EC and he was only there part the time. But then it’s hard to keep calling him 24/7 to talk to him. What in hell would she do if she had to work a 40 hour week during real work??? Poor spoiled little brat!!

      • Jane says:

        She’s already squawking/complaining on her Twitter feed about this:

        LeAnn Rimes Cibrian ‏@leannrimes 8h
        My body needs a reset button after this tour. #toomanymeds #toomuchillness #toomanyaccidents

  59. Leslie says:

    I think LeAnn gets drunk and starts BG twitter wars. Looks like she was at it again last night. Lots of other ppl calling her out on it. Hope Brandi doesn’t engage in it.

  60. Leslie says:

    …Just saw this:

    Brandi Glanville ‏@BrandiGlanville 20 Sep
    I just got invited to the Emmy’s and the Governors ball and I don’t have a dress! Help!
    Expand Reply Retweet Favorite More

    Expect a Twitter meltdown from LeAnn in the next 24 hours. Think she’ll find her own Emmy dress and pretend she’s going? Like she did for the Oscars?

    • Jane says:

      Shades of Brittany y’all!

      LeAnn Rimes Cibrian ‏@leannrimes 5h
      @GAC_CURVES seriously, I want to shave this long hair sometimes. It gets in my way on stage lok

      I think is impossible for Leann to attend any Emmy gala if she is still flying in from Europe. It is probably upsetting her greatly that Brandi was invited and not her, therefore she will conjure up some more drama in attempts to steal Brandi’s thunder. It will, however fail miserably.

      She has already:
      had laryngitis
      had a cold
      suffered through the flu
      injured her hand

      What could be next? She might feign a heart attack or insist on an appendicitis.

      BTW: Check out JSJ. She has some interesting tidbits alluding to Leann. If they are true, it explains her hand injury and perhaps having a meltdown in Switzerland.

    • briargal says:

      Yeah and beautiful and very talented Carrie Underwood is supposed to sing at the Emmy’s too. Poor WeWe! She also missed the I Heart Concert held in Vegas. Nobody wants her! Hehehe!

  61. Christin says:

    This really is like Groundhog Day. It’s the same stuff, over and over. I recall an interviewer months ago asking what some of the lies are, and the response gave no specifics. What is this “truth”?

    The “forever” family stuff is also puzzling. If and when the marriage ends, so will the connection to those boys and their father.

  62. Jayna says:

    Wow, TMZ put all these tweets she did with her assistant. So she has her assistant with her. They sat over there like high school girls and the assistant posts a quote from a promo of the RHOBH (where did they get that, Sweden? LOL) about rehab and stuff. LeAnn then takes it and retweets it puts something about it being the truth.

    So she’s jumped on by people about why stirring up stuff and she goes off about it being the truth, blah, blah.

    So let me get this straight. LeAnn says she never stirs up anything on twitter. Yet she is over in Sweden and she and her assistant go all high school quoting a tquote from RHOBH supposedly (those promos are deceiving) and LeAnn going off about she has a right to put out the truth, she’s tired of being silent.

    Am I missing something? Brandi wasn’t saying anything on twitter. So LeAnn, great stepmom that she is, starts shenanigans with her assistant? How old is LeAnn? It’s really kind of sad and pathetic that she is over in a beautiful country and all she is doing is sitting on the internet with her assistant obssessing over how to get Brandi back posting immature tweets how she’s been silent too long? LOL Uh, why don’t you take your private family issues private? How about that?

    TMZ posted the whole twitter feed and she looks like a fool as she started it. She wasn’t responding to Brandi at all. I bet Eddie will be so bored when she gets home carrying on about it.

    • Jane says:

      I saw the Twitter rant on Fishwrapper. Dear God, she was way out of line.

      • briargal says:

        Glad to see other sites FINALLY showing LR’s craziness. Maybe more people will totally understand why others dislike this totally crazy loon.

    • briargal says:

      It wasn’t her assistant–Kiki, but a friend(?–does she have any who aren’t paid?) photographer who went with LR on their successful(?) tour. They dropped the prices on some of the concerts just to get people to attend. It was like a “lawn chair tour” but in comfy seats.

      • Jane says:

        I saw Tweets stating from what looked to be concert promoters selling tickets for £5. That is around $7.50! I do not know the validity of that particular amount as anyone can “fake” pretty much anything these days. However, if that is true, how in the h*** did Leann make any money off this tour and pay her band? H***, do they just work for booze and bribes from Leann?
