LeAnn Rimes cancels her Dublin concert, citing illness, after partying in a club

LeAnn Rimes is super-sick, you guys. Totally sick. She’s so brave and so sick and no one understands. After flying to the UK and Ireland for a series of concerts, LeAnn is no longer able to go on. She is a wilting flower, in need of attention. For what it’s worth, she was able to perform (with lots of coughing, apparently) in Belfast, but after she got to Dublin, she had to cancel a show. Not surprisingly, she had been out partying in a club the night before she “got sick” and canceled the concert:

LeAnn Rimes was pictured in top Dublin nightclub Copper Face Jacks on a night out just 24 hours before cancelling her Irish concert, citing illness. On Thursday afternoon, Rimes took to Twitter to complain she had been in such pain with a sore throat that she was forced to go to a Dublin hospital.

She had been due to perform in Dublin the night after she frequented the popular nightclub on Harcourt Street in Dublin’s city centre.

She tweeted: “Never thought I’d see the ER in Dublin. I have coughed myself into pain. The spasm is intense. Being human sucks sometimes.”

Aiken Promotions apologised to up to 1,000 fans – many whom travelled across the country – for the cancellation of Thursday’s gig.

“LeAnn Rimes regrets to announce that due to illness tonight’s performance at Vicar Street has been cancelled. She would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused,” the promoters said.

Manager at Copper Face Jacks, Aidan McCormack tweeted a photo of the singer in the club on Wednesday night.

“LeAnn Rimes popped into Coppers tonite couldn’t get her up on the bar counter!” – a reference to her dancing on a bar counter in the 2000 film, Coyote Ugly.

When contacted by the Herald, Mr McCormack said: “I can’t comment on anything, I am off today. I haven’t been working the last few days.”

The picture of Rimes in the club has been deleted from his account. Yesterday, the singer seemed to have recovered somewhat and was photographed out and about in the city centre with with husband Eddie Cibrian.

She tweeted: “Got a massive shot in my ass OMG it freaking hurts I’m limping down the streets of Dublin. This could sound really bad on so many levels.”

Contacted by the Herald and asked to comment on her visit to Coppers on Wednesday night, a spokesperson for Rimes said she was recovering.

“LeAnn is currently on vocal rest in her hotel room under a doctor’s care and vocal specialist due to a resurgence of a viral infection that she has been struggling with the past two weeks,” the spokesperson said. Management also released a statement from the throat specialist who treated her in Dublin.

[From The Independent]

Yesterday she also tweeted: “I am so thankful for a great doc in Ireland & good meds, even though they are making me feel nutty. At least I can perform and it’s a blessing. Thanks Birmingham for a wonderful night. There were fans from all over the world here tonight, I’m humbled. Thank you for your love. Xoxo”. So, what’s the verdict? Did LeAnn have to cancel her concert because she was out drinking with Eddie in Dublin? Or is she really, really sick? Eh. While I feel like a terrible person for questioning LeAnn’s illness – for all we know, she really IS sick – I do think she’s a melodramatic narcissist and she loves being the center of attention no matter what.

    Holy crap, I’d be SO annoyed if I was a doctor in a public hospital in an urban area and someone came in to waste my time with a sore throat.

    • Lucy Goosey says:

      I developed Rheumatic Fever after a case of untreated strep. So some sore throats can be pretty serious!

      That said, however, I know LeAnn is faking. And I would bet good money that she has a histrionic disorder and is thrilled any time she gets a minor illness. It will get her attention!

      • Emsworth says:

        Lucy Goosey! Something similar happened to me. I had untreated strep and suddenly developed this rash all over my body combined with high fever. It was Scarlet Fever! Crazy olden-daye disease was my thought. Strep is a ROUGH infection.

        And yes, I also think Leann is a faker or at least playing up whatever cold she has. 🙂

    • Andrew says:

      Sorry, but I get awful viral sore throat at least 3 or 4 times a year, and I have to go to the dr to get an antibiotic or it lasts for over two weeks and sometimes I think it’s worse than strep (I get strep every few years too). I eventually get fever and weak when it goes untreated. Even though I can’t stand Leann, if she has a sore throat I don’t blame get canceling. I have opera singer friends who have had their vocal chords bleed from overdoing it with a sore throat. You can still function with a sore throat (like go out) but not sing or do much with tons of energy.

      • springingforward says:

        Viral strep is not remedied with antibiotics. Only a bacterial strep can be.
        So her massive shot in the a** with penicillin(? where they put it if you need it) means that either a.) Her doctor is incompetent or b.) She is lying.
        *voting b.*

      • msw says:

        Or it could mean she had a virus with a secondary bacterial infection. I can turn a headcold into a raging sinus infection in no time.

        Whether or not she is sick for real this time, we all know she malingers, so she doesn’t get any sympathy from me. Poor LeAnn, i thought she was knocking pn death’s door last week. Good thing she risked her perilous recovery by going to the club.

    • Thiajoka says:

      I’m not defending Rimes in this post because I have no idea if she is really sick or not. But I did have strep throat once several years ago and went to the doctor who did a culture and it came back negative–I couldn’t concentrate on anything, my throat hurt so damned bad. He said I had a sinus infection and sent me home with antibiotics. 3 weeks later I was back and still had the sore throat, chills, fever–he did a different culture then and found that I had strep throat. I don’t ever want it again. So yeah, a sore throat can be quite painful.

      On edit: I will say this–though I did miss a few days work with the strep throat over the period of the month it took to get it taken care of, I certainly didn’t feel like going out partying and site-seeing. So, the fact that she did that makes me skeptical of how ill she is.

  2. L says:

    Speaking from experience, if bitch was in Coppers then she is very hungover. No one goes to coppers without getting a hangover. ever.

    • Sorcha says:

      Coppers is famous that way!In Dublin people don’t go there unless they are absolutely drunk!

    • respect says:

      The metda is starting to hit the fan..independent.ie seems to doubt her truth. The first comment is someone asking if she can be sued. Tables are turning and maybe her lawyer will have real lawsuits to work on soon. Check karla hoffmans messages to her. Something is rotten in denmark…or dublin or wherever she is.

      • Kat says:

        It’s nice to see coppers getting the reputation as a top Dublin club on an international scale. Finally.

        Hopefully she shagged a guard and robbed his Cork jersey as a souvenir.

    • norma warner says:

      The papers in Ireland had pix of her being helped out of a bar, so she was pretty smashed.

  3. hadleyb says:

    This reminds me of the girls at work who call in sick only to be spotted at the mall by someone on their lunch, or coming back to work with a sunburn.

    She doesn’t know how to lie, lay low and stay off social media when you call in sick ( which is basically what she did).

    Also I have noticed that liars will go on and ON about their story, have details up the wazoo when they lie.

    • OutoftheLoop says:

      1,000 times YES about liars going on and on about their story and all the details. Used to work with someone like that. Couldn’t stand the guy. Don’t know why those people think that the more detailed and intricate the lie, the more believable it is. It’s not.

    • Christin says:

      Exactly! Excessive details always create questions in my mind.

      How many of us have had a head cold that eventually (often in later stages) creates a couple of days of coughing fits? I would never think about going to an ER for something like that (but then again, if a doctor’s excuse is needed to get out of work obligations and satisfy an insurer…).

      If one is truly sick with a lingering head cold or whatever this really is, why the sightseeing and bar visit? Why not stay in the hotel (boring as that might be) and be better able to fulfill your work obligation and not spread whatever this is? Once again, watch for the work and play patterns in those that frequently claim to be sick.

    • Insomnicole says:

      I’ve read that when people tell a lie, it often doesn’t sound convincing to them even if it sounds convincing to the listener, and that’s why they start throwing in all the details. “No, really — I was dying! I was having spasms! You wouldn’t believe the meds they gave me in the emergency room!”.

      Wonder what that poor bar manager got threatened with to take that picture down.

    • Jennifer12 says:

      She doesn’t think she has to do anything that differently because she’s Leann F— Rimes and SO important that no one would DARE question her. Except…. everyone is starting to. Karma has a face that looks like Leann’s.

      • claire says:

        That’s her problem right there. Well, ONE of them. She thinks she’s a legend, untouchable, so it’s perfectly fine and people should like it that she does a budget, short show, that she can cancel for fake illnesses or Eddie-watching and everyone should just accept it.

        NO professional would go out and drink for several nights if they had concerts that week and supposedly had been battling an ear infection/TMJ/vertigo/flu/chest cold or whatever the hell else she supposedly has.

        I don’t even remotely believe she’s sick. It’s all a ruse to cover up whatever is going on behind the scenes involving Eddie, or her possible addictions or the show imploding – take your pick.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        She’s a legend in her own mind. I saw the footage from XFactor, and you can see how she is 80 shades of f—- up, but she’s Leann G—-mn Rimes, and so she is going to go out there and kill it. As Anne Lamott once wrote, she thinks she’s the best and she thinks she’s the worst: the piece of s— around which the world revolves. She still thinks she’s a hot commodity because no one has been able to poke a hole in her crazy snowglobe. Yet.

      • Hakura says:

        @Jennifer12 – I always thought Karma’s face would look like PMKris or Pissbucket Beiber xD

        But I can live with it being Leann’s. It’s certainly more than unpleasant enough.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Hakura, Shakespeare said the devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape. I guess Leann and Kris Jenner are what he looks like on his lazy days. 🙂

    • norma warner says:

      So true. LR making a huge deal of the huge dry erase board the hotel sent up so she can communicate…ridiculous. I’m surprised they didn’t bring an iron lung to her room.

  4. Badirene says:

    Copper Faced Jacks? Good christ here in Ireland its known as slapper faced jacks cause of the type of customer it attracts, yikes! Bet Ediot loved it.

  5. Virgilia Coriolanus says:

    First picture—wtf is she doing? Trying to be a video vixen? Beyonce?

  6. Tara says:

    Extra money for things like concert tickets are not easy for everyone to come by. I hope those ticket buyers got more than an apology and a couple of rancid tweets. Ugh. This story makes me as sick as LR pretends to be. I’ve had viral attacks of the throat before and I just wanted to curl up under lots of blankets and wait for the meds to kick in. I could barely swallow sips of hot tea much less do the club thing. She might be sick-ish but she will still always put herself first. Gimme a break.

    • Christin says:

      I do feel sorry for those who planned to attend the concert. Allegedly there was short notice (maybe as little as one hour). Just refunding a ticket price (if that is even happening) does not compensate travel, lodging, taking off work, etc.

      • Tara says:

        Not to mention having to explain it to a teen or younger friend/family member who will be disappointed. But the “little” people dont matter I guess. She LR sux.

    • Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

      It seems like just another way to get attention – all those fans who bought tickets, were looking forward to the performance and travelled – that is just wrong to do this to them. The term for this behaviour is energy vampire. All those people put so much energy to go to her show and she didn’t give them return. One day she’ll have a concert and no one will show.

      • brin says:

        Very soon, her concerts are poorly attended now.

      • Tara says:

        Ita. You would think lr would be grateful that *cough* so many people came to see her. My gosh she used to sell out stadiums! But you know, it would be kind of hilarious if L.r. Called in sick to party rather than work for the fans who also called in sick to go see her show hahahaha!
        But seriously I hate behavior like hers. People work like dogs every day and deserve whatever distraction/entertainment they choose without some bimbo with square boobs ruining everything. Ugh.

      • Hakura says:

        I just can’t understand it, really. I mean, *if* she isn’t really sick. She’s already spiraling downward in popularity as it IS… THIS is not getting her any good press or career advantage, & living with Ediot, she’s gotta make that money.

    • MissWilso says:

      I saw tweets from people who spent over 100 Euros on a hotel and were on a bus for three hours to get there just to find out an hour before I started that it was cancelled. One lady came back early from a vacation in the US to make it. Leann is a selfish bitch!!! I wonder how many people took the night off of work for her. Curious how her sickness always comes when it’s time to work but never when it’s time to party

    • norma warner says:

      She had a silent meet and greet with her fans. Reading her twitter is a hoot.

  7. OutoftheLoop says:

    Love the name “Copper Face Jacks,” but no love for LeAnn.

  8. Jane says:

    Totally unprofessional on so many levels. If I were the venue who she canceled on, I would sue her.

  9. Micha says:

    “being human sucks sometimes”? what the f. is she even saying??

  10. janie says:

    Oh my goodness! What is this gal doing & thinking? I’ve never seen anyone do so much to hold on to a man! This appears to be a vacation for Ed! She is destroying what is left of her crumbling career! She won’t have either one by the time she losses everything.

  11. Sonia says:

    She should be offering refunds. That’s what a decent human would do. She is losing fans left and right and has nobody to blame but herself. Of course she will blame everyone else but that’s neither here nor there.

  12. Dani V says:

    Maybe she has bronchitis and got a shot of Rocephin, but this chick, she is her own worst enemy. Drama wherever she goes. It must be exhausting for the people around her, though I have zero sympathy for Eddie.

  13. eliza says:

    This nut bag is constantly at the doctors.

    Lol@ at the collection of ugly pictures here. Gotta love the bloated face, the too tight skinny jeans, her non existent eyes, her exposed zipper, the hair in desperate need of Frizz Ez, her knock knees, her nostrils out in full force. Did I miss anthing?

  14. Mika says:

    Oh man, she’s like J.Lo. 99.9% of her photos taken while performing is butt-ugly. Seriously.

    • Dannielle says:

      ITA, that one photo where her face is receding with that “derp” look on it…gah. It’s like her neck is trying to swallow her.

      UG. LY.

  15. KellyinSeattle says:

    I’ve always been surprised she didn’t get pregnant right away with Ediot’s baby, unless she really doesn’t want a baby or has trouble conceiving; but it would tie to her him for a long time….and if she did get pregnant, I can only imagine the endless tweets we’d hear about the progress of her morning sickness. She’s just a gross person. And it bugs me that she thinks she’s such an international star.

    • Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

      If she had a baby LR could copy Brandi and have that weird surgery down south – and tweet before and after photos.

    • bettyrose says:

      Clearly Ediot’s too smart for that but ask KFed how much a baby ties you to a woman. Come to think of it, if Eddie knocks up Leann, he can totally walk out on a pregnant woman – a la KFed – but still get spousal suppert & child support – again a la KFed but different woman.

    • Sara says:

      Having 2 kids with his ex didnt tie him to her though. It didnt even keep him from cheating with a bunch of randoms.

    • Biscuit says:

      Isn’t it widely known to everyone except LA that Eddie has had a vasectomy??

  16. KAL says:

    You guys should go to twitter and look at some of the photos from her concert last night. She looks wasted.

  17. Christin says:

    A photo supposedly from last night’s performance shows her sitting on the floor, barefoot, with several pieces of paper in front her, presumably with song lyrics (reminiscent of some December concerts). Scroll down the page to view photos:

    Has there been any confirmation of whether prize husband is still in the UK?

    • respect says:

      Very shady..the pics of ediot he is wearing the same outfit and seem to be from the first day. Now she is wearing a suicide blonde t and quoting cobains suicide note. Methinks ed jumped ship and shes both trying to cover it and get attn for it at the same time. my mom commited suicide and to hell with her. People are citing on twitter that b says e is out of town for the wrrk. If i were her and trying to build a decent relationship for the kids i would tweet the same. If he is really out of town why did she tweet that she went to calabasas 3 times the other day for masons homework? things that make you go hmmm…

      • briargal says:

        I think EC would have been gone a long time ago but is afraid she might do something to harm herself if he did and people would blame him. The Suicide t-shirt might be a shot at emotional blackmail to EC in case he is so tired of his child bride and her antics. Where is Eddie? We haven’t seen him in pics since he was strolling down the streets with LR (while she is sick!) She put out the idea of having him join her on the concert stage, even though I think she was joking (or again wanting people to think he is still with her on tour.) And she was not wearing her wedding ring! Make of that what you will! She probably will say she is just so bloated because of the meds she is on. Really?!?

        In my opinion if you are sick, you don’t go to a pub or even out sightseeing like she was. It’s one thing if you absolutely must go to work. But she cancelled so she should have stayed in her hotel room and rested not only her body but her thumbs too.

      • TheTruthHurts says:

        I don’t think the Mason’s homework thing means anything more than what it is. The boys are with Brandi now, she drove them to school, Mason forgot his project at her house so she had to go home and get it and bring it back to him at school, then she picked her boys up from school later in the day. 3 trips. It’s what moms do.

    • Jane says:

      My partner and I just looked at that photo and he said, “All she needs is a rolled joint in one hand and she’d be perfect for a pose for a drug infused session at Woodstock….”. I bloody well spit out my coffee on that one and high-fived him.

      As for Eddie…all I know is as of the 14th Brandi still has the boys. If he were home in LA, it would be his time to have them, yes?

      • Christin says:

        The concert photos remind me of Elvis, except he did show up for his gigs. He came to a couple of smaller venues near my hometown during those last two or three years, and recently I read that he played smaller places because the Colonel was trying to keep a lid on the physical deterioration. May I add that I like Elvis and think he was a decent person.

      • Tara says:

        Oh me too! I think all of the hip shaking was hilarious but I would have loved to have known him.

    • qtpi says:

      Seems that Brandi still has the kids and there are pics of him posing with fans at her concert and sitting by her on an airplane.

      Maybe she pulls this illness crap so he won’t leave? There is a lot of time left over there too – I think the drama is just beginning!

      I’ll believe she is really sick the day she cancels a vacation.

      • Insomnicole says:

        “I’ll believe she is really sick the day she cancels a vacation.”

        HA! Perfect comment.

      • briargal says:

        Someone on GR is saying that the pic of LR and EC on the plane was taken when they went to D.C. She has been known to take previously taken pics and make like they are recent ones. Sure she is trying to make people think EC is still with her. Well, we want proof! Show us a pic of her and EC with a dated English or Irish newspaper!!!

    • Macey says:

      That GR page is definitely worth bookmarking, some funny GIFs on there.

      I saw a copy of an article about her cancelling and apparently she was only performing for about 1000 people. thats assuming all tx were sold or maybe that was the venue max but that seems like such a small show to travel overseas for. I wonder what the tickets were selling for to make this trip even worth their time?

      Interesting about the ediot pictures. Someone pointed out he was not in the big partying picture from the night before that LR paid someone to remove. Luckily, most ppl familiar with her antics know to r/c that stuff right away b/c she will have everything incriminating removed for a price. I just cant believe there arent some kind of financial ramification for cancelling last minute like this. Im sure she has to pay for certain things whether she shows up or not. Ive never heard of any other artist be so unprofessional in my life.

      • claire says:

        Every time she cancels she goes on and on that they will be back to make up for it. When they promise the venue that, does that mean people don’t get refunds? She’s cancelled so many in the last couple of years, that’s a lot of makeup shows and I haven’t heard that any have actually been made up. Seriously…is this how she’s avoiding refunds and scamming the fans?

      • briargal says:

        @claire–So does she have insurance that covers her not showing up? I would think that if there was apromise to reschedule and they don’t, you could be right and that would be a scam. Venues have got to start suing her for everything she has.

      • TheTruthHurts says:

        I thought that too, but there is a video someone took of her doing an impromtu show at one of the bars. She sings “Leaving on a Jet Plane” and even though I despise this girl, her voice is just incredible. Anyway, point is, that on the video you can see Eddie to the right filming LeAnn with his own camera, so he was there.

  18. Stephanie says:

    “Being human sucks sometimes *cough*” STFU.

  19. Rita says:

    First of all, it’s Brandi’s fault. There, someone had to say it.

    Who the hell packs up a band, her husband, business manager, and stage crew to fly 4,000 miles across the ocean to perform for 1,000 people? I know that’s 700 more than her usual crowd but her entire tour won’t gross what a B-list country artist will in one night.

    • respect says:

      I blame b for climate change and bad hair days as well. Shemay be behind the breakup of the beatles and os undoublably behind cobains suicide…why are the wewe haters so blind?

    • Annie B says:

      It’s interesting because who I assumed was a manager/PR person her fans refer to as her PA (personal assistant)? Leann didn’t correct the fan, just said “Renya” is the greatest. So personal assistant, nanny (?), “professional” photographer all being toted along?

    • Leslie says:

      I’ve wondered that, too. All of these are small venues. It’s not like she’s booked at big arenas that hold 10,000 or more people.

      The Belfast Waterfront Hall has a seating capacity of 2,235.
      Dublin Vicar St has a seating capacity of 1,050.
      Birmingham Symphony Hall has a “comfortable” seating capacity of “over” 2,200

      And there were pix from fans showing all of these places not even half full. Seems to me she’s spending more money to go over there and stay for the duration of her gigs than she is making.

      • loie says:

        Omg that makes me feel bad, and I don’t even like her. We just had a block party and 500 people were there! Maybe she should serve BBQ pork at her concerts.

      • Jayna says:

        The Belfast review where they had over 2,000 something said it was completely packed.

  20. bettyrose says:

    So unprofessional. People who work five days a week tend to only call in sick 2-5 times per year. What kind of singer doesn’t take extra measures to protect her voice while on tour?

  21. Quinn says:

    Yeah, it ain’t the medication making you feel crazy, honey.

  22. Assistant Rachel says:

    Why would anyone waste their money buying her concert tickets? She cancels more shows than she performs!

    • bettyrose says:

      At some point, I want to say I don’t even feel sorry any more for people who keep buying tickets. But I’m going to give a pass on the Irish crowd, who I’m imagining as older women and not as readily exposed to American celeb drama – thought I realize that’s probably not accurate.

  23. respect says:

    Pink wig cometh…

  24. Deanne says:

    If I was recovering form a bad bout of “coughinducingtonsillitisfluvirus” and had professional commitments that required me to sing, or even speak, the last thing I would be doing is drinking into the wee hours the evening prior to a gig. LeAnn is on a drug for her skin issues that can make her immune system compromised. Alcohol further compromises your immune system and she should be mature enough to abstain while “in recovery”. LeAnn seems to view her travel for tours as vacation time and the chance to keep Eddie drunk and happy. She doesn’t seem to view it as work. Partying and then cancelling should make her ashamed and instead, she feels no remorse for putting people out and just uses her lies to get more attention and garner sympathy. She really sucks as a human being doesn’t she? Thank you to whoever took the first picture of her doing spaz dance routine. That seriously made my day.

    • Relli says:

      All drama aside, watching her dance has always made me giggle with delight. Great singer, sure. Triple threat, never!

      • Deanne says:

        She can’t act. Her dancing is entertaining only because it’s hilariously bad and her singing voice is going to be ruined if she doesn’t put away the six pack and take care of it. Pretty soon the only threat she’s be is a legal threat No career and spending her days waiting for Google alerts where she’s mentioned, so that she can find new people to sic her lawyers on.

    • Cindy says:

      Your points are valid Deanne, but you are looking at it from the sane person’s perspective. Leann is a hardcore narcissist who has been enabled in her self centered viewpoint since childhood. She never takes responsibility for any of her own actions even when she deliberately hurts other people. And she never feels remorse or sympathy for her victims. She doesn’t care if you have a husband, family, kids, life, days off, hotel bills, hours of travel, or your own commitments. Everything about everyone else must always be sacrificed to her wants. Leann wanted to party hard and drink at the pub and babysit Eddie (who probably had a date that night) so she did. She needed an excuse for the next day and she didn’t care enough to make it sound real. She does this behavior so often even her excuses are boring.

      • joanne says:

        someone complained to her on twiitter that they travelled see her and it was a wasted of time. she responded that she had flown all the way from los angeles. no concern whatsoever.

      • Deanne says:

        Notice there’s been no mention of refunds for the tickets. She ignores the tweets where people ask about it. Liar and a coward, all wrapped up in a psycho. Boy, Ed’s sure earning his keep isn’t he?

  25. Rita says:

    I see she’s using her old schtick about her feet hurting so she takes off her shoes and performs sitting down with pages of lyrics spread across the stage.

    This of course is to give the audience the impression of a personal intimate performance. What it actually does is stink up the place from the smell of her feet.

    • respect says:

      Lest we forget the socceer dirty feet pics:-P

      • briargal says:

        Ewww Those pics definitely showed how dirty her feet were and she plopped them on top of a water container. Ewwww!

        I’d bet she put her feet on the thermos on purpose. “Oh, you’re going to leave me out? What are you going to drink from, then?”

    • Lady D says:

      I am absolutely staggered that she forgets the lyrics to her songs. She’s been singing some of these songs for freaking years, and she forgets the words? Does anyone know if this is common for singers? At concerts I’ve been to, I’ve never seen the artist with song sheets in front of them. Seriously, I can’t believe she forgets the words to her songs. Didn’t she write a lot of them?

      • briargal says:

        I can totally see her forgetting the lyrics. Could be whatever she may be on OR her mind is wandering and wondering what Eddie is and who is he doing! Can’t concentrate very well that way!

  26. Kara says:

    I know this is from earlier this month but exposarazzi pointed out that in 7 days this nutcase had 4 different “sick” symptoms –

    http://exposarazzi.blogspot.com/2013/09/7-symptoms-in-just-4-days-in-life-of.html?m=1

    Exposarazzi does a good job pointing out all her crazy. I don’t buy that she’s sick not if she can party like that..people should just not even waste an ounce of energy on her & not buy her concert tickets. She looks like a deranged Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz in the first pic by the way.

    • KatieD says:

      Deranged cowardly lion…that is priceless…thank you for making my morning! Ha!

    • Emily C. says:

      To be fair, I think Leann was saying Mason had tonsilitis, not that she did. And inner ear infections often make one feel dizzy — I don’t know if they can cause full-on vertigo though. I do know that if she had full-on vertigo, she wouldn’t have been doing the stuff she was doing.

      • Dana M. says:

        @Emily, I recall her tweet stated Mason had pink eye and she had Tonsillitis. The ear infection, dizziness and vertigo came a couple days later I believe. Who can keep track with all her illnesses? Even she can’t keep her story straight half the time.

  27. Jane says:

    What gets me is her jabs at people on Twitter when they complain they had to make certain sacrificies to see Leann only to have her cancel. Here is her passive aggressive jab at the Tweets that ticked her off:

    Twitter Names withheld:
    @leannrimes saw a tweet from girl been on bus for 3 hrs to see her and then cancels

    Twitter Names withheld”
    @leannrimes my bf cut her vaca short by 2 days to make this concert.

    LeAnn Rimes Cibrian ‏@leannrimes 12 Sep
    btw, I flew from LA & an DYING to perform

    It is ALWAYS about her sacrificing more than anyone else. She is out getting wasted on booze and could care less if she cancels. God, this is so unprofessional.

    • bettyrose says:

      Because flying 1st class, staying in a luxury hotel, and partying non-stop, all for a paid engagement, is just as much of a sacrifice as using your limited vacation days to take a bus across the country for what you hope will be a very special night.

      She loses money when she cancels concerts, I mean, right?

    • Lucy2 says:

      How does she not see the difference? Those people paid her, essentially, and she bailed. It’s not equal hardships!

      Who cuts a vacation short to go see her?

  28. Cris says:

    Notice she was not wearing her wedding rings last night, but was in the photos from the first concert. maybe E did really leave Friday.

  29. Deanne says:

    Can someone explain to me why she’s wearing a shirt that says suicide and tweeting parts of Kurt Cobain’s suicide note? She seems so completely unstable.

    • briargal says:

      seems??? How about totally is unstable!?!?!

    • respect says:

      See above comment by cris. Subtlety, thy name is not leann.

    • Linda says:

      This is subliminal; you have to remember that everything LeAnn does and wears is on purpose. She is trying her best to tell and scare someone by this and we all know who it is. He is miserable in this relationship as well he should be. He is trapped forever.

      What he did/does and allows to be done to the mother of his children is no small thing in the eyes of God. What an asinine fool to think he was going to get away with it. KARMA!!

    • Dana M. says:

      The girl is twisted! I would say probably her passive aggressive way of a threat towards her husband. Story is he is afraid to leave her only because he is afraid she will commit such an act, allegedly. Like I said, twisted..

    • Jane says:

      Leann is simply asking for more sympathy and wants as much attention as she can get. She is totally addicted to being noticed. The second someone doesn’t pay enough attention to her, she conjures up some ridiculous situation to garner people to start talking about her.

      I wouldn’t be a bit surprised she pulls this off again when her VH1 pulls the production of her show, when Eddie threatens to leave her and again when Brandy’s second book come out.

      Come to think of it…seeing that the show is already in trouble, it stands a chance she is already doing what I just mentioned.

      • emmie_a says:

        Yep, it’s all about sympathy and attention. She doesn’t care what she has to do to get either, as long as she gets lots of sympathy and/or attention for it. She’s sick but not physically, it’s all mental.

        And I’m in total agreement with the poster above who said that if she were truly professional and was serious about her concerts and her fans, she would be preparing for her performances beforehand, not out drinking and following Eddie around… especially if she’s *sick*. I hope someone puts together a scorecard that shows how many concerts she has performed vs. cancelled since she’s been with Eddie…

      • Cindy says:

        emmie a, that’s a really good idea, a tally of all of her cancelled concerts and appearances. Not just for the fans and the venues, who are out all that money, but for all of the people she is constantly sending Cease and Desist letters to and suing (like the Smileys) when they call her out on her lies.

    • Jennifer12 says:

      Two reasons: one is that she uses self harm threats to keep Eddie in line. She’d never do anything to herself because she’s too selfish. The second reason is that she is in a battle with Jennifer Sale of justsayjenn.net who has been exposing a lot of the crap she is putting people through and Jennifer lost her niece to suicide and her best friend to murder. So she’s making her point on all levels. Psycho.

      • briargal says:

        I love Jenn’s site and LR is a manipulative, lying, homewrecking stalker who cares only for herself. I urge everyone to boycott anything LR does in the future and tell anyone who does not know or read anything about LR and her horrible character, to let them know. I had a friend who didn’t know and once I told her all about LR and her crap, she was shocked and swore to never put any money into LR’s pocket via concert tickets, CD sales, etc.

      • nico says:

        “The second reason is that she is in a battle with Jennifer Sale of justsayjenn.net who has been exposing a lot of the crap she is putting people through and Jennifer lost her niece to suicide and her best friend to murder. So she’s making her point on all levels. Psycho.”

        I doubt Leann would have known that information about that blogger.

        Leann is a psycho, but JustSayJenn is a little too obsessed with LR.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Leann stalks people she knows dislike her, and is known to send her minions after them as well. Jennifer Sale wrote something Leann didn’t like and Leann went after her to get her fired from Yahoo. She knows who Jennifer is. This is not some sane person or regular celebrity you’re dealing with. This is a sociopath in full meltdown mode.

      • Cindy says:

        Yes, she did the same stalking and fighting then legally bullying to Brandi, the Smileys, Ilana, and now Just Say Jenn. This is her pattern of criminal harassment when someone disagrees with her.

    • TheTruthHurts says:

      Unstable or not, it’s in such poor taste. Just like when she wore that “cool kids never die” shirt. So much for being an anti bully advocate.

  30. Jacqueline says:

    I love that she looks big as a house in the pic third from bottom.

    I’m sure Eddie’s right there with all sorts of help. “I know what’ll make your throat feel better (and shut you up)” *unzips*

  31. TheyPromisedMeBeer says:

    He may have married a barrel of crazy, but I’m still jealous that Eddie is getting to travel on someone else’s dime. I’d put up with Leann for a chance to go to Ireland!

    At what point is she not going to be booked for concerts anymore? She is costing her promoters/managers/venues more money than she can make them, especially with the amount of cancelled shows and unprofessional behavior.

    • emmie_a says:

      I’m sure that was what drove Eddie to her in the first place — the life of leisure with lots of riches — but even that gets old after awhile, especially if you’re on a short leash while putting up with crazy all the time. And the shorter and tighter his leash becomes, the more he will want to get away.

    • Virgilia Coriolanus says:

      Like my mama says, you can be absolutely gorgeous, but if you don’t have anything to back that up–if you’re a nasty person or just an idiot, after a while, that gorgeous person you’re with ain’t so gorgeous anymore.

      Leann was rich and moderately attractive (I thought she would’ve looked great in the 20’s and 30’s type style–like that video she did for “Nothin’ Better to do”) three years ago–now she isn’t so much anymore. And Eddie is a user–so yeah, he probably jumped ship. I shouldn’t laugh about her marriage imploding, but she’s a nasty person and knew what she was getting into.

      Any dude who tells someone that I’m ugly and not attractive, let alone his WIFE (when he’s trying to convince her that we never bumped uglies)—let’s just say that I wouldn’t go near that dude if you paid me.

      I had a crush on this boy when I was in seventh grade–however that crush evaporated INSTANTLY, when I left the classroom (he was looking at me), and then came right back in–to hear him laughing about my mustache (hey I have really THICK hairs, so what would be just a little peach fuzz on an unassuming upper lip, was darker and thicker on me).

      It hadn’t bothered me enough to start shaving, but it did then. And I didn’t think that boy was cute anymore.

      Same with Leann. Dealing with her bullshit, beyond the cheating, has got to be time consuming—I would feel bad for him, but he didn’t have to marry her. He knew that she was fucking crazy (with all that stalking and not respecting boundaries w/the boys while they were DATING) before they even got married.

      You reap what you sow, y’all.

    • briargal says:

      @TheyPromisedMeBeer–You are a glutton for punishment if you would put up with LR and her craziness just to see Ireland! Save your money and do go there. I was there three years ago and loved it. But no way would I ever go with LR anywhere! Except maybe to laugh at her and her antics and point out to her how ridiculous she is all the time. And then sell my memories of the trip and LR to an entertainment site or mag. Imagine how much a person could make for that story! Hmmmm–hey, LR, I can travel with you. PLease!!

      • Christin says:

        Great idea, but I’m not sure I could take it, even for a free trip to a lovely country. I sat near a woman last week who talked to her husband about little harmless spots on her arm and leg for an hour, when she wasn’t admiring her pedicure. I thought of this one.

        I thought, this is and will be her (and maybe Eddie – if he hangs around) as I imagine it. Me, me, me, and constant talk about minor “ailments”.

      • TheyPromisedMeBeer says:

        You’re on my wavelength, Briargirl! The entertainment provided by Leann would be just as much fun as the trip itself. And, as someone who has works in customer service, I can handle long periods of ridiculous behavior. I just wrapped myself in a shell of bemused observation. The endgame would be worth it.

        @Virgilia – I’ve said before that I love “Nothin Better to Do”. That is still a jam of mine. I’m only a couple years younger than Leann so I remember how big of a deal she was when she came out and I thought she was great. And then, well, yeah. She is one of the few artists whom I can’t listen to on an objective level anymore because it’s impossible to separate her music from the crazy in her real life, unfortunately.

  32. Maddie says:

    I was under the impression that a singer doesn’t indulge in alcohol drinking before a performance because its not good for your voice.

  33. Emily C. says:

    It is possible that she was feeling much better until she went out to a club and drank, pushing herself too hard and allowing the virus to come back. If it were almost anyone else, especially a younger person without enough experience to know better, I’d give her a pass. But this happens too much, where she’s able to party but unable to work. If she really is sick, she should have known better. Any professional at her age should know better than to go drinking at a club the night before work, let alone one who gets sick as often as her and is still battling a virus.

    I wonder if she did it on purpose to make herself sick enough to cancel. It doesn’t sound like she’s totally faking, though she does like to make her illnesses sound much worse than they are. I think it’s possible that she’s purposefully making herself worse.

    • Cris says:

      I think she went cuz E wanted to hit the town, and no way could she allow him to go unescorted by her, even if it meant not getting needed rest. She forgot about the damning pics that would be released.

  34. jilly says:

    So she probably sicced her lawyer on McCormack and got the incriminating photo evidence deleted.

  35. KatieD says:

    So LR posted a pic to twitter that says “I’m not crazy, my reality is just different than yours.”

    Well, she got that halfway right.

  36. d says:

    The fact that her behaviour doesn’t mortify her is telling. She’s in love with herself and this fantasy of herself and cannot see how embarrassing she is, never mind unprofessional. This is not a person in control of herself or her career, no matter how much she pretends otherwise.

    • brin says:

      I agree, she’s living in her own crazy world.

    • Cindy says:

      ITA she is driven by her addictions. Anyone else would have been humiliated by now: her drunkenly trying to upstage Carly Rose on Idol, all of the very obvious SWF-ing and stalking of Brandi, the recent encouragement of the two fans wearing the F*ck Brandi t-shirts, her shout out to them at her concert and on twitter, the obsessive babysitting of Eddie, who is never out of her sight (did she install a tracking device on him?), the constant Munchausen’s illnesses, and the constant paying of paparazzi to follow her every move.

  37. Jennifer12 says:

    She’s someone who was worshipped and adored by her parents and told how special she is her entire life. For a while, she got that same message from the media and fans, but since she blew apart the life of an innocent woman and the woman’s two sons and then attempted to co-opt the sons, no one really likes her. The more she is unmasked as a selfish bitch who will destroy anything in her path and document it on Twitter- the more she is called on it and disliked for it- the more unstable she becomes (plus she’s pretty clearly an addict). No one understands her true love! How Brandi makes her “suffer”! How special she is, how brilliant and talented! There are nails in her palms, in her demented mind. She has been using the illness/hospitalization excuses for years to get out of responsibilities and gain sympathy and there is so much evidence of her evil out there, there is no escape from the truth anymore. Brandi and her sons can get ready to moonwalk offstage now and Eddie can have another beer and muse on his choices. Leann, start kissing Wilbur’s butt, because it looks like you’ll be moving in.

    • AmyB says:

      God one should really feel sympathy for her. But most don’t. She is pretentious, arrogant and narcissistic. Truth: if I were a celebrity and constantly read bad press about myself, I might, just might, take a moment to pause for some self-reflection. She looks sick now, not fat, as some say. She is hardly that, just sick. Like addiction sick.

      • Ming says:

        I find it so odd that for someone who’s been in therapy for years, or in her words, her whole life, to have ZERO self reflection.
        Zero.

    • Cirque28 says:

      She really has been using the same illness excuses for years, hasn’t she? The ERs, doctor visits, shots, tweeted explanations and defensive apologies… At some point, you’d think it would be easier to just stop scheduling concerts.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Remember that Dana Carvey bit about OJ? “Don’t look at that mountain of evidence! Here! Look over HERE!!” That’s Leann. She never thought she’d be caught in anything, and she thought Brandi would slink away from Leann’s radiance (I couldn’t even type that with a straight face). Now that people are compiling evidence about how long she’s pulled this nonsense, and how many times she’s used the same excuses, she’s blaming everyone but herself for being in freefall. Couldn’t happen to a nicer…. I can’t call her a woman…. nicer carbon based form of life.

  38. Rita says:

    Here’s an unnerving problem I have. There are people, both males as females, that have an orgasm with just the thought of seeing LeAnn and not only those on twitter. There are some in the well educated countries in Europe who made great effort to see her and even swooned when they met her.

    So here’s my point. If I’m walking down the street and notice LeAnn coming towards me I am immediately aware of the dangers ahead. It’s as clear as standing on a railroad track with a full throttled locomotive coming at me that’s belching black smoke which paints the sky with the warning, “Crazy coming, best run like hell”.

    On the other hand, some of her fans walk around, shop, or work among us. I realize Miley has made slithering one’s tongue along one’s face politically incorrect but shouldn’t there be some way for the rest of us to identify LeAnn’s nut clutch before we find ourselves standing next to one?

  39. Jayna says:

    I believe her voice went out on this show but blame her. First off, being in a bar the night before with her issues from being sick on the way over supposedly. Bars over there are filled with heavy cigarette smoke. Alcohol is horrible for a singer if they are having gastric reflux issues or other issues. Her first concern should have been protecting her voice.

    Lastly, she should have gotten a steroid shot that got her through the performance. Singers do it all the time. It’s just not good to do it or often. Its not like she had something that could have damaged her vocal cords by singing it appears. So instead of canceling an hour before, hell yeah she should have done it.

  40. Cirque28 says:

    Having skimmed her Twitter, here’s an unintentionally hilarious LR tweet from N Ireland:

    @leannrimes: Some deep shit on the streets on Belfast! So inspiring pic.twitter.com

    Deep shit AKA the not-remotely-inspirational William Butler Yeats poem “An Irish Airman Foresees His Death.” It’s partly about the conflicted politics of being Irish while fighting for England in WWI, and partly about yearning for suicide, seeing no point to your life, etc.

    How obnoxious and brain-dead is this trick that she assumes every single thing she reads is a positive affirmation just for her? Way to insult everyone from war veterans to Yeats enthusiasts, WeWe. More singing, less thinking, please.

    • claire says:

      One thing I have noticed about Leann and her fans, is that they all spend A LOT of time retweeting or seeking out to tweet various quotes and sayings. Is that some sort of deep need to justify their insecurities? From a psychological point of view, it fascinates me how much time and emphasis they put on all of these sayings.

      For example, I see this a lot: One of her fans will say a bunch of nasty stuff about Brandi on Twitter, and argue with anti-Leann people for hours. I mean, invest hours in defending her and themselves. Then five minutes later, and for hours, they will post quote after quote about things like: being a nice person, if nothing nice to say, don’t say it at all, don’t let haters get to you, their opinion means nothing, etc. They will go on and on about how they live their lives the way these quotes say to and how awesome and above everything they are. I mean, literally, these quotes are the exact opposite of how they just spent their day, for all to see, but they are patting themselves on the back and it seems to completely go over their head.

      What the hell is that?! It’s freaking crazy and it blows my mind how disconnected they are. Is there a name for this?

      • Cirque28 says:

        @claire: Yeah, they have an unshakeable belief that they are these spiritual, enlightened intellectuals. IDK what you’d call that condition. Too Stupid To Recognize Stupid, maybe.

        @brin: She said Happy Yom Kippur? Oh that is legendary.

      • brin says:

        @Cirque28…Yes she did, she’s an equal opportunity offender.

      • Relli says:

        Oh gawd yes! That is what intially got me interested in this drama saga to begin with. I was pretty neutral about Leann in general and thought she was a normal person who happened to be a former child star with moderate adult success. UNTIL I started reading the stuff that her fans would leave on the message boards, WTF. It was fascinating and scary all in one and boy are they loyal sheep.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        I forget who said you don’t hate an a—-, you just stay away from him/her. That’s how I see it. You can’t argue with them, or attempt logic (admittedly I’m not on Twitter, and wouldn’t have the time or patience to argue like that anyway) with them, because they’re stuck on a gerbil wheel of misplaced self righteousness. I’ve seen people pointedly post evidence of what Leann and her Igors have done, and they still brush right past it. Brandi hasn’t posted about her in ages, or spoken of her, but people still act as though she has.

      • msw says:

        I think they’re just lost, and turn to that stuff because they can’t explain life for themselves.

      • TG says:

        Yes, it is called being a hypocrite. These types are are often found in extremists groups.

    • brin says:

      What about her “Happy Yom Kippur” tweet!
      Ilana set her straight on that.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Oh, lord, that’s like saying Happy 9/11 to a New Yorker.

      • Cirque28 says:

        @Jen12: Exactly what I was thinking. BTW, hope you remembered to tell your grandfather “Happy D Day!!” on June 6th.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Or Happy Holocaust Remembrance to the family…. Blank and sociopathic is no way to go through life, LR. Oh, what? Too late? True.

  41. Virgilia Coriolanus says:

    Oh and don’t know where else to put this, so—

    God must truly love me. First Ewan McGregor, and now Le Fassdong. I was sitting in church this morning, and right after the morning service, right when I was about to get up, and go downstairs for sunday school–who walked into my line of sight BUT the profile of Le Fassdong.

    Hand over my heart, I swear, I did a double take. If his beard had been ginger, I’d have thought Fassy was strolling in to see how many church bitches he could corrupt with a single shark grin and a roll of the hips to show off that monster that is the Fassdong–unfortunately for me I’m white as snow (damn it biracial heritage! couldn’t make me a LITTLE darker?!), BUT maybe I could’ve entrapped him with my wavy afro?

    Ahh, I’ve got doppelangers of Ewan AND Fassy–aren’t I a lucky girl?

  42. A Fan says:

    Kaiser – these picture choices are too funny!

  43. AnnieP says:

    Someone should tell her that she “jumped the shark” quite a while ago.

  44. Vanessa says:

    I don’t understand how someone as unprofessional as Leann keeps booking gigs and why are people even spending their money to go see her in concert. Leann fans should be able to get a refund its not right to do that to them Leann is a straight up asshole to her fans the only time Leann cares about her fans is when they are bashing Brandi .And I hope one day a venue sues her it would server her right

    • Jayna says:

      They will get a refund. It didn’t go forward, so of course they will, or a replacement date for their tickets, which let’s face it she’s not doing. They don’t get travel time, etc.

  45. jess says:

    You guys know the photo Leann posted in the white dress lying on the sofa just recently? Well Guess Who Did It First?
    Brandi.

    http://exposarazzi.blogspot.com/2013/09/leann-rimes-proves-once-again-that-her.html

    • briargal says:

      Of course Brandi did it first! LR doesn’t have an original bone in her body. And Brandi did EC first too!

  46. nico says:

    Why haven’t any of these venues sued her yet? Does having a doctor’s excuse keep her from getting her ass sued?

    She could easily find doctor’s willing to say she’s seriously ill for a price.

    Any lawyers here willing to explain?

  47. Jane says:

    OK, so let me try this again seeing that a post was lost for whatever reason. Has anyone noticed a shirt Leann was seen wearing and a quote from the late Kurt Cobain on Twitter???????

    • Macey says:

      She also posted a pic that said “Once in awhile, blow your own da*m mind”.

      She is def. sending out the messages to Ediot. This is almost scary to watch b/c you know a break down is inevitable. There is no way he or anyone could keep living under these conditions. Usually once a psycho partner starts letting out the full blown psycho, by threatening themselves or others, there’s no turning back. it only gets worse from here. This kind of reminds me of the Jody Aries case.

      Someone said on GR that a fan tweeted her that she was sorry she didnt get to met EC at the meet n greet and that the one pic she posted of them on airplane is actually from a cpl of weeks ago. I really think the sh*t hit the fan and this is just the beginning.

      • Jane says:

        I’m comforted in knowing that YOU know which picture I am referring to. At least I am not the only one noticing these things. Her little “Words of wisdom” have taken on a whole new element of crazy (or “cray” as it is now called).

        @Jennifer12 You bloody well took the words right out of my mouth. However, a part of me wonders if she went to the ER to begin with. It could all be yet another one of her “truths” she is begging for us to believe.

      • Jennifer12 says:

        Jane, I don’t think she is sick at all. I think she is in meltdown and drinking and whatever else for all she’s worth. I know an addict when I see one, and she sure as hell isn’t hiding it. I don’t know what GR means, but I’ve seen the photos you mean. She’s been harassing the blogger at justsayjenn and also sending emotional threats to EC.

      • Jayna says:

        I don’t think it is a message to Eddie at all. I think even over there she’s reading gossip over here, like a high-schooler, obssessed with what is being said about her. It’s a message to the gossip about her threatening suicide. She thinks she’s being funny, not inappropriate, which it is beyond inappropiate. What is more telling is that over there on tour and in a great country, she is still obsessed with the internet and gossip about her. She really mentally is in high school and the internet is her school and classmates. LOL

      • norma warner says:

        I hope EC knows enough to watch her where his boys are concerned.

  48. Cyndi says:

    That pic under the one of her and Eddie, are you sure that isn’t Sally Struthers?? :o/

  49. Jennifer12 says:

    Wouldn’t it be awesome if people went to the ER in Dublin for evidence that Leann was there and truly sick (not just hungover or in fullblown psychosis)? Or found the doctors she’s praising to high heaven?

  50. Leslie says:

    @Jennifer12 – GR is Gossip Rocks. I think they have a LeAnn thread.

    • Jane says:

      @Leslie and @Jennifer12 Very true. The thread is extremely long and chronicles all of Leann’s histrionics and now deleted controversial tweets. It is very profound what this woman has said and done throughout the years. I couldn’t go through the hundreds and hundreds of pages, but those that I managed to look at during my time off were mind-blowing.

      • claire says:

        It’s like a documentary – the timeline of this entire 4 years of f*ckery. The scary thing is that we’re probably missing about 30% of her antics. It’s too hard to keep up with and post *everything* that she does!

    • Jennifer12 says:

      I was wondering- thanks!

    • Cindy says:

      It’s a great chronicle of the madness. I also recommend reading many of Celebitchy’s old L.R. posts on this site. Between the two sites, it’s a lot of reading but really juicy and fun if you have the time.
      Like when you are *cough, cough* “sick” and “on bed rest” 🙂

    My father in law makes up illnesses and exaggerates his real illnesses substantially. I think its an externalization of his emotional pain as much as it is a reason to keep himself on the couch. Wouldnt surprise me here, either.

    • Ming says:

      This.
      I think she is dealing with severe emotional issues. Deep issues that have circled her for a long time.
      Eddie must be ignoring her, the reason she is tweeting so much about nothing (who tweets about a loving a razor? Seriously.)
      Leann is looking for validation and Eddie isn’t giving it to her…so she’s screaming from the internets.
      Sad and shameful that no one around her who is supposed to love her and be concerned for her mental health has the balls to say something and get to the bottom of her mental health, even if it means no longer getting signed checks. Anyone with eyes can see that she is falling hard and fast.
      I love me some karma. But seeing the lack of people step up to someone who is so clearly disturbed mentally, emotionally, and physically makes me wonder…

      • Jane says:

        I agree, but it stands a chance that either these people are so hungry for money and do not care, or they do care, but Leann is so intimidating with this out-of-control behavior that they haven’t the tools to deal with her.

      • Jayna says:

        That tweet was probably for money. She makes them occasionally about a product. You see it on twitter by lots of nobody celebrities earning some dollars, or even big dollars by some.

  52. skeptic says:

    I’ve never seen a celebrity on such a self destructive mission before. It “almost” makes me feel sorry for her.

  53. Sea Dragon says:

    She strikes me as a suburban Target version of Lindsay Lohan.

  54. Jackie Jormp Jomp (formerly Zelda) says:

    I hate Glanville, Rimes, and Cibrian. All of them. Quite a bit.
    So, to clarify: I LOVE these posts.

  55. briargal says:

    Hmmm! Two concerts in a row where she is not wearing her wedding ring!!

  56. lisa says:

    you dodged a bullet ireland

    • apsutter says:

      Well they didn’t completely dodge the bullet. She was still physically in Ireland getting her stank everywhere so they weren’t totally lucky.

  57. gobo says:

    Copper Face Jacks?! Oh my fricking god guys. I just can’t even. That place is a notorious meat market shit hole.

  58. Ais says:

    I was there that night to celebrate my graduation by having a bunch of creepy 18 and 50 year old strangers stroke my face and ask me if I was a good girl. I saw her there briefly and she looked like she was having a pretty good time ( as good as you could have there) running around and talking to her friend. If she did damage her voice it probably would have been from shouting over the music, but I’d say she was just hungover.

  59. Snowpea says:

    I really really do not understand why noone has taken her to one side and whispered a quiet word in her ear about getting some help and reining in her lunacy.

    I’ve been following this malarkey for a few years now and I sense a debacle of the highest order exploding right about now.

    Is it her fault? Was she born an entitled, narcissistic beyotch?

    Or is this what happens to child stars who don’t have a strong mentor to navigate the rocky path of success and say no to their demands?

    We will never know.

    But my god Rimes is a bona fide nut job. She is a miserable, entitled, delusional, mean, malicious nutter.

    I wouldn’t wanna be her for all the tea in China 🙁

    • briargal says:

      Sorry, but whispering a quiet word in her ear would not help. A bull horn wouldn’t do the trick either. She has been told all her life what a wonderful person she is, and that she can have anything her lil ole heart deserves (more so from bio-mom than bio-dad). And so now she feels like she can do anything she wants to do and people will just love her so that when she does her crazy things, it won’t matter. She is the only thing that matters to quote her tattoo. I am afraid it is too late to change her, hoping not, but certainly her bio-mom doesn’t want to risk losing her little paycheck. It really is time for an INTERVENTION, PEOPLE!! It really is sad that no one loves her except for the money. What a pathetic way to go through life!

      She did have a beautiful voice but she is throwing all that talent away. (Carrie has a much better voice IMO) I can not stand to hear any of LR’s music only because of what she is and what she has done. What a shame to waste that talent!

      • Miche says:

        Agree. She USED to have a nice voice. But she’s ruined it. She now over-sings, doesn’t enunciate, and you can’t understand what the hell she saying. Sounds like she has marbles in her mouth.

  60. logan says:

    Truthfully I didn’t realize she still did concerts. I thought all she did anymore was walk around in a bikini, fight with her husbands ex and drink. Who knew she still sang? I guess I should keep up.

  61. Shelley says:

    Don’t you guys think the lyrics to her self-written “What have I done?” are indicative of something pretty bizarre? This line: “I broke the sweetest heart of the only man who ever loved me” – which apparently refers to Dean, despite her claims to the contrary – startled me when I first heard it. I’m not going to claim to know a darn thing about that marriage other than that they look relaxed, casual, and genuinely happy in a few photos I found when quickly Googling them. He seems like a decent guy who’s consistently worked and took the higher ground after the nasty blowup of his marriage. Other than this one song, she seems very cold toward him and the marriage.

    • Christin says:

      I think he was a stabilizing influence. Things did seem calmer during that union – at least on the surface, before the dramatic ending.

    • Macey says:

      He was actually well compensated to take the higher ground after their divorce. She paid him a nice settlement to sign a confidentiality agreement. cant say I blame him tho. He not only got some serious cash in the bank but he got away from the crazy that is LR. Ediot coming along was probably the best thing to ever happen to their marriage. I cant even imagine how tiring and annoying she is to actually be around.

      In other news,
      I have a feeling she will be tweeting more manically than she already has been. she just posted that Her love of life is going home to be with “the babies”. At least she said “The babies” instead or “our babies” this time. She also posted a pic but Im not sure if thats an older one or not.

      • briargal says:

        I think Dean was pretty upset with the break up of his marriage but as he looks back now, he is probably thanking his lucky stars that he is away from that loon. And of course, the money was nice too. Wish he hadn’t signed anything to prevent him from telling his side of the story. We know her craziness has been going on for sometime but has really ramped up the past four years. I wish Dean all the best and more happiness that he has ever had.

    • Jayna says:

      No. That song was actually written years before her affair. She wrote it about a friend that was going through a divorce. Sometimes she likes to play up how it applies to her so why it’s on the album, kind of life imitating art, or I noticed she doesn’t correct some interviewers when they state she wrote it about Dean, but she never wrote it with Dean in mind. So really there is no song on there that she wrote about Dean and her sadness over hurting him, I don’t think. There is another one, but it’s a cover. But she did say it applied to her life and she could never have written a song any better, so I guess she thinks of Dean when she put it on there.

  62. Angela says:

    My thing is that if she’s been sick & talking about how important voice rest is then why in the world be out in a bar the night before a show? She sang in the bar and then the next day can’t do a show.People had taken time off of work and some traveled pretty far! She done a meet n greet for those who contacted her via twitter to make up for it. What about all the people who don’t have twitter and didn’t get that chance? Just not cool to be out and about making the healing process worse when you are canceling shows.This seems to be a pattern lately. She canceled a show at the very last min for a Gay male chorus and was the main act! Literally the last min saying she had the flu.

    • N says:

      I personally know someone who works in the industry and he said when artists/celebrities claim “the flu” it is code for…hangover.

  63. briargal says:

    Okay–so the word “Out of LR’s tweets”–as if they can be believed!!??!!–is that EC is heading home to take care of “the babies”. Does that mean we will see pap pics of him getting off the plane from the UK? I still think he left earier and she has been tweeting to make people think he was still there. She has done that before!

    And isn’t it amazing how there is NOTHING on DM about her tour, her cancelling and her partying when
    everytime she had a bikini on over here, there was a whole bunch of pics and an article. But then again, nothing here on ROL and others either.

    • TheTruthHurts says:

      Oh thank god! Now Brandi & Eddie can finally have that “talk” they were supposed to allegedly blind item just say jen have.

    • qtpi says:

      Also annoying – when she calls them BABIES. Keep talk like that up and Mason is going to pop you in the face Le.

    • DGO says:

      Her “fans” have been playing with the arrows on DM, which makes me wonder if DM is simply sick of her and decided to withhold stories. Who knows? At any rate, it’s nice to click on DM and not have to see another inane headline about her.

  64. Leslie says:

    She’s supposed to be in England and Switzerland through Sept 21st. But if Ediot has gone home, she will probably get “sicker” and cancel some of those concerts. Don’t think any manager or any of her team can stop her from faking the sickness. She’s a pro at doing that.

  65. Monica says:

    she really looks like Brandi in some of these photos…

  66. Bread and Circuses says:

    I vote for really sick.

    She might be a drama queen, but there are witnesses to the coughing and this has been going on long enough–and severely enough–that I believe she really has caught something nasty.

    I kinda love the image of her limping down Dublin’s streets in her high heels because she just got a ginormous needle in the buttock. Happened to me in India; I can relate! 😀

    • briargal says:

      Coughs can be so fake! How many times have people called in to their work, coughed into the phone and said they wouldn’t be able to come to work with this horrible cough! IF she were really sick, she wouldn’t feel like sightseeing and going through with her meet and greets but yet not do a concert. Just think of the fake germs she spread to adorning few fans!

  67. Dana M. says:

    If she completes this tour it will be a miracle. I don’ think she can leave Eddie off the chain for more then a few days, and that’s pushing it for her. I hope he gets to spend some quality time with his boys and maybe even meet with Brandi to discuss their co-parenting 😉

  68. Deanne says:

    She’s really ramping up the tweets right now. Did anyone know that she’s still sick and on meds? She’s going to the mat to sell that story. Apparently, it’s national step-family day. She’ll be droning on about that and retweeting quotes about how giving birth will never make you as amazing a Mother as marrying a child’s Father does. She’s cracked. Her minions are lecturing people about her illness. Apparently they are all medical experts, as well as legal ones. The cognitive dissonance and delusion that their little group all share, is truly amazing.

    • Cindy says:

      Haha, she retweeted a link to one of the stepmom articles but I don’t think she read it. It talks about the stepparent knowing their bounds “We remain silent on controversial issues. We allow critical one-on-one time with the parents and their children. We never bad-mouth. A soft place to land is an innocuous place, almost making us invisible.”

  69. Cindy says:

    I wish someone would chronicle how many concerts she has cancelled this year, not to mention in the last couple of months she has cancelled due to “illness.” The fans in Europe would see that this is nothing new. She cancels on a regular basis, at the last minute due to illness, usually after a night of partying, and is then seen out the next day, getting sushi and shopping.

  70. Danny Lynn says:

    She really needs to give those nasty pants a break. She’s worn them the last 4 nights/concerts. Let it air out LeAnn.

  71. briargal says:

    I really want to see EC leave LR!! But I would have a tiny smidgeon more respect for him if he was to leave because of her craziness and not just because the money is going, going, gone! That tiny smidgeon would be a whole lot more than what I have for him now! He was so stupid to get himself entangled with this loser that it makes him a stupid loser!

    • Christin says:

      If he does leave, I think he will try to come across as superdad and hope people don’t remember the details. His ego may get in the way of leaving, even if he’s miserable. If he does bolt, it will probably be about money.

      He should have known better, but then again she continued wanting to be with him even after he allegedly made some harsh comments about her to Brandi. He sounds like the type of person who will say anything, but if he really meant it, then how humiliating!

    • TheTruthHurts says:

      If he leaves her, it’s for the craziness, never for the money. She will always have some form of money coming in. Women stay for money, a man can only handle crazy for so long.

  72. Leslie says:

    Here’s LeAnn singing in a pub the night before she canceled her concert…you know, when she was SO sick and on voice rest…

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePQEm-Fc4bI&feature=player_detailpage

    • jess says:

      Funny. She’s singing “Leaving on a Jet Plane” and Eddie’s taping it, you can see him to the right. Last sighting of Ed in Dublin. No sign of sickness there, she was really bellowing it out. She must have really tied one on that night.

    • Michele says:

      Ha ha they’re letting her have in the comments on this video…

  73. Green Is Good says:

    She had a hangover. Done. Whatta tw@t.

    Do the poor saps who bought tickets get their money back?

  74. Jane says:

    Leann Tweeted that Eddie is not with her in Europe. She must be going stir-crazy.

    On a side note–brace yourselves people, Brandi has her own Twitter page and …well…go there yourself and see the videos yourself. Something tells me Leann is going to hound her there.

  75. Michele says:

    She’s truly looks horrible in these pics and it’s great. She was hungover in my opinion. Shrug.

  76. jess says:

    Blind Item #1 – One for the money…

    This waning singer, wanted to cancel the last leg of their tour recently, because they aren’t all that interested in working, and they also don’t want it to be revealed that after a high price press campaign, the ticket sales have been dismal. They have this thing about wanting to be semi-retired, yet have all of the attention of a rock star. Unfortunately, in order to get that, you have to work. Which is what their business manager told them when they got wind of the singer wanting to bag it and go home. Turns out, they’ve borrowed off the prospects of their latest projects being hits, and with them flopping there just isn’t anything liquid left. The only thing the singer owns outright is a few real estate investments and a pretty lucrative song catalogue (not their songs, obviously). Not enough to stay semi-retired and living the high life. The business team said, “it’s time to sing for your supper”…literally. The singer complied because the people around them will only be there if the checks keep clearing. For now.

  77. jess says:

    Blind Item #2 – Tarmac Tantrums
    This C-list celebrity recently went ballistic in a foreign airport when their flight itineraries were changed, resulting in a downgrade from first class. The celebrity freaked out, screaming that they haven’t flown anything but first class since they were a kid, and it wasn’t about to happen now. Yes, screaming. Like a three year old. The ticket agent apologized, yes, they know who you are, and no you can’t get an upgrade. The celebrity then told the agent that they needed the upgrade in order to receive proper medical care as they’ve been severely ill recently, and didn’t want to risk their health further by being in a crowded cabin. The agent replied, “wouldn’t it be you putting them at risk?” The celebrity stomped away, while their spouse shrugged and grabbed the boarding passes.

    • Macey says:

      LOL. I just popped in this thread to post those very blinds.

      How funny is that, someone’s bank account is dwindling and whoever the airline person was that put her in her place deserves a raise.
