I’m about to give LeAnn Rimes credit for something nice: I kind of think the publicity campaign for the VH1 show has been pretty good. I’m comparing it to LeAnn’s publicity tours for other works, like her last major album launch (Spitfire) and her various “We In Love” tours over the years. Just last year, LeAnn oversaturated the market very quickly when she was promoting Spitfire, and the “all about Wewe, all the time” vibe was one of the reasons the album did so miserably. Plus, LeAnn plays the victim about everything – she’s the eternal martyr and no one “understands” all of the terrible things she’s had to put up with just to be with Eddie. There’s been a lot less of all of that during the promotional tour for the VH1 show. It’s a sweet relief.
One of the good things about this campaign is that LeAnn and Eddie are spreading out their press over the course of a month. It’s not like they’re doing all of the major shows and magazines in one week’s time. This week, they’ve got an exclusive interview with People Mag. It would have been okay except that LeAnn is still a delusional martyr.
The photographers are all over LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian these days – but this time, they’ve invited them. The tabloid targets have welcomed VH1’s cameras into their Los Angeles house to shoot LeAnn & Eddie, giving the duo a chance to dispel misconceptions about their romance. The country singer and the actor (who most recently starred on TV Land’s Hot in Cleveland) married in 2011.
“People are always wanting to make it a story of me being a homewrecker and trying to take someone’s kids,” Rimes, 31, tells PEOPLE. “They take the love I have for my family and twist it around in some weird, sick way.”
Although their series won’t feature Cibrian’s kids – Mason, 11, and Jake, 7 – from his previous marriage to reality star Brandi Glanville, he says it will show how fiercely devoted he is to his singer wife.
“The biggest global misconception would be that we’re not two people who are really in love with each other, that there are ulterior motives to our relationship,” says Cibrian, 41. “But people just don’t get it. Hopefully people will get a chance to see how we just click.”
Lord, I sincerely hope they got more out of LeAnn than just those two sentences. No one should start out a People Mag puff-piece by screeching “I’m not a homewrecker I’m not stealing anybody’s kids wawawawahhhh!!” Gurl, chill out.
Here’s yet another video of LeAnn & Eddie playing the Newlywed Game, this time for People. I think they may have ruined Salt N Pepa’s “Push It” for me. And I always loved that song. Now whenever I hear it, I’ll think of Falcor. NOOOoo.
Last thing – this might be the only thing more terrifying that LeAnn’s old Vines. BEWARE.

Her teeth look like dentures. She could do a Polident commercial.
I believe they are dentures and I think she has a few different sets. So weird…
My guess was implants or caps.
@Jenny12 Could be. Honestly, I am confused by her teeth. Sometimes they look really long, other times too short.
They’re definitely dentist work, but I can’t figure out exactly what. If they always look different, I would guess caps.
I’d prefer to watch paint dry.
Dude, exactly!! And n o offense to Kaiser, but I cannot turn on my TV at any point day or night w/ out seeing the Squint’s Truth Tour. It’s kind of nauseating, truthfully.
I agree about this silly truth tour because they seem to have memorized a script and have pat answers to the questions probably approved in advance. They have -0- chemistry, seem more like brother & sister. Eddie, just tell your audience what it is specifically that attracts you to Leann….besides her $$$$.
Yup it is the Lee-ann and Eddie Truth Show…which has been distilled from lies, publicity BS, cheap vodka and several pairs of Lee-ann’s heinous shoes….
You’re the one who is sick and twisted, not everyone else.
So much delusion!
“People are always wanting to make it a story of me being a homewrecker and trying to take someone’s kids,”
Sorry LeAnn, I must have completely misinterpreted your actions
I think it infuriates them that no matter how many times they try to control the story or people’s opinions, it doesn’t work. #karmatrain
Yes, I was thinking the same thing, that’s why they won’t let it rest.
The perfect example of delusion is to call it “a global” misconception. Bitch, listen. If you think there’s some universal interest in you’re bad choices and dookie stains, you’re wrong. It’s all just fuel for the fire of these forums, you’re not changing anyone’s perception of you- youre a joke. Albeit a long running one, but a joke nonetheless.
Yeah, that had me rolling as well. It’s right up there with the fishbowl comment.
Dookie stains- don’t know why, but that phrase gave me a much-needed lol just now. Perhaps because it took me back to my childhood, when my brothers taunted me with the word ‘dookie.’ Thanks for that!
Absolutely correct Evelyn,
Maybe she should have a career as an opera singer, “Me, me, me, me, me.” That ole gag. 😉 But, in her case it’s true. God, is she a narcissistic.
Except…. it’s not their house. They constantly invite the paps to cover every bit of their lives. Leann has been blatant about wanting to take over Brandi’s role as parent. Eddie barely works. They are using the boys’ pictures to promote their show, not to mention bringing them up in every interview. And “global misconception”? Bahahahaha!! Eddie, you opened your mouth and confirmed what a complete tool you are. Your wife already let us know. Why People is giving these D listers space is beyond me.
I’m guessing VH1 (or whatever company that owns them) is giving People some kind of exclusive about other, actual, celebrities-and this was a deal that was created to promote their stupid show.
I think you’re right. If Alicia Keys, currently a hot singer, can hide her pregnancy for months on end, there’s no way the paps are choosing to follow an out of work actor and a failing singer. The global misconception comment is right in line with his unfair fishbowl comment. This guy has an inflated opinion of himself.
She did the interview with them over a month ago. People Mag was obvi in no rush to publish it.
What I love the most is that Ediot totally outed himself re: turning down work. Now, we all know he wasn’t offered a lead role on Dallas! But when Brandi turns that tape in to a judge and he has to answer for turning down legitimate work? Judges frown on that sort of thing where child support is concerned. Although, I find it a real slap in the face to Brandi that he admits never working now that her alimony has ended. I would love to see this supposed role challenged and have Ed outed as a complete liar. Hello TNT- won’t anyone over there spill?
No one is offering this talentless douchebag work. But it *would* be awesome to see it go before a judge. Either he has to admit lying about getting work or he has to admit he turned work down. He **loves** hurting Brandi. And that must be so painful to their kids.
I can’t see a judge giving a damn if Brandi had a tapes, make that 100 tapes of Eddie turning down jobs, custody is split 50/50 and Eddie pays Brandi child support. What is she going to do use it for to get more child support out of Eddie? Brandi with her overfilled cheeks and bad weave will be laughed out of the courtroom.
I don’t think the judge would care what she looks like. It’s a matter of turning down work. But she hasn’t done anything or threatened to do anything, so it’s a moot point.
aaa: I would love for you to be face to face with Brandi and see what she looks like in person. I have been. She is STUNNING. It’s shocking she photographs so poorly because she is tall & naturally beautiful & doesn’t look at all like a tranny in person. Anyone will understand instantly why LeAnn is insecure.
I am not saying this to anyone specifically, but can we not use tranny as an insult? I thought Brandi was pretty before the plastic surgery, and I wish she would stop messing with her face.
Dear world.
PLEASE stop referring to her as Falcor. It ruins a part of my childhood that was a level of awesome she could never even hope to be! 🙁
Word. She can’t fly and Atreio ain’t ridin’ that in his quest to save the realm from the Nothing.
Lindsay79: ditto to that. Leave Falcor out of this chicanery.
For whatever reason, the fact that your comment includes the word “chicanery” just makes it my favorite comment of the day!
+ eleventy billion – while I don’t dispute the likeness, I really loved that movie when I was a kid
They are both delusional and repulsive. The only thing that clicks is me turning my tv off when they are on.
Brandi’s new face is delusional and repulsive
Nothing is more repulsive than wewe.
Hi again, Lea…errr, Hyena! When’s your friend Heidi coming out to play? 😀
What has Brandi to do with this?.. Just shows how relevant Brandi is and Leann and Eddie isn’t. No one cares about these losers they can pitch what they want and still bat zero. That show is finished.
Leanne, stop bringing Brandi into your daily life, and daily comment, and daily tweet, and daily hairstyle, and daily shoe choice…
Ha! And just who are you jennyserenity? I don’t need or want your patience. Not sure why you are so upset about someone commenting on the Internet. I have just as much right to bash brandi as you to do to defend her or bash leann. Grow up.
Serenity now!! Hahahaha
C’mon, really? You think those cheeks on LeAnn in the selfie above are REAL? Get a grip and get your head out of LeA$$’ tunnel of love.
I’m not repulsed. I like Brandi.
Please bitch. You are leann or one of her cronies. Stop being so “transparent”.
My opinion only, but I think Brandi (fillers and all!) is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. I think her two boys are two of the best looking kids, too! Not everyone thinks like you do. However, I SO agree with one of the other posters in that we are NOT here to discuss anyone other than LeAnn and her husband.
“The love I have for MY family”? The family you kind of stole? Oy vey. She just continues to grate. If their press for their show (which I will never watch) is any better it’s only because VH1 is keeping her on a tight leash. Their PR people are gnashing their teeth currently over these comments.
That just falls in line with what people think, doesn’t it? She has already referred to the boys as her sons as recently as last month. Their ratings tell the story: no one likes them and no one is watching. The best part of the story is that Brandi is the one getting work.
Surprised noone has ever asked her a about being desperate enough to ask brandy to be on the show when they started production. Brandy tweeted about it.
Leann lives in her own bubble of delusion and laxatives. The only truth that exists for her is what she creates. Creeeepy.
I feel like the world doesn’t appreciate or care how in love my boyfriend and I are. We get no press coverage when we snuggle. Isn’t a strong relationship defined by how many Twitter followers your private moments have?
Posted in wrong place. Stupid phone.
you need to step up your game and start hiring your own paps…. take a lesson or two from LR 🙂
If you don’t put it on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, it didn’t really happen. Didn’t you know that?
So, if people don’t watch the MeAnn & Ediot show, does that mean it didn’t happen? Because that would be a lovely turn of things in the universe…
The worst part is, I still believe that love is its own reward and lack the desire to taunt our exes. In fact, when I heard recently that an ex was getting married, I felt – gulp – happy for him. With this mentality, VH1 is NEVER going to give me a reality show. 🙁
You’re too smart and emotionally healthy for a reality show.
Well, Tweehab will never let YOU in.
LOL! Best headline ever.
In her defence though, was there really a lot of “homewrecking” going on? I mean its Brandi Glandville and Eddie Cibrian we’re talking about. I don’t think either one of them know how to spell the word “home.”
I don’t really care for Brandi but you can’t say she is not a good mother. Plus, you didnt hear a peep out of her before Eddie got w/ Leann.
I think Brandi is a loving, caring parent who made some mistakes, but is essentially a good mother. I would have lost my mind having my kids around Leann. I think Leann doesn’t matter because she isn’t a parent, but she sure thinks she is. And Eddie is a human cesspool.
I think it’s fair to say that Brandi loves her kids but let’s not pretend she’s a good mother. I’m not about to call her a bad mother but the woman has done some horrible things that her kids will find out- DUI, tampon string drunk, bragging about sex, being homeless, oversharong information about them and herself, posting pics of them in underwear and she posed in sexy shots at the tennis courts with the youngest one there while kissing him on the mouth. Definitely not about to win mother of the year awards.
I don’t know with any certainty what kind of mom Brandi is, but I try to give her credit and say she makes bad errors, but she seems to learn from them- she did not repeat the DUI or bad drunk photos. I think she needs to pull back on the personal information for sure. The underwear shots….. I don’t agree with those, but I have to say, she isn’t the only person who doesn’t see a big deal in them. My friend and his wife post shots of their daughter wearing shorts only and she is almost 7. I don’t agree with it, but they don’t see a big deal. Another friend, married a long time, posts pictures of her almost 9 year old son in his boxers and she and her husband think it’s fine. I don’t think it’s a good idea, but there are people who think I’m a prude.
Those things don’t matter when you’re a good mom. They will love her unconditionally. She’s never done anything to hurt them so those other things will have zero impact on them. I’m sure they know their mother better then some internet strangers do.
@ jenny being a reality tv dlister and posting photos is different than a regular person doing it on a private facebook.
Maybe I’m wrong but I think I have seen many sets of stumble drunk flashy photos of brandi.
@jezi by that same logic then, you don’t get to sit around and say (and Ive seen many brandi fans including you say ) the kids will one day hate eddie- because being a good dad will cancel the cheating and marrying someone else!!
Hyena, I feel like she’s been doing better. She hasn’t repeated the errors of the past and seems to have worked on drinking less. Maybe I’m wrong; I don’t follow her except on the internet, but I haven’t seen any drunk pictures in a long time. The underwear thing, I don’t know, I’m just saying a lot of people don’t see it as a big deal. I would not personally do it and I don’t. I give her a LOT of credit because, despite being taunted for months in interviews and by a show that even TV critics say does nothing but bash her, she has not responded to it. She has not even said a word about her sons’ photos being used to promote the show used to bash her. As for Jezi, everyone knows she is Brandi’s friend and not a fan, but I disagree with you saying Eddie is a good father. A good father does not bash his kids’ mother and certainly doesn’t allow his mistress turned wife to bash her.
Hyena, is there anyone else you’d care to insult? Brandi, Republicans, Americans- you’re the most negative person I’ve ever seen post here. Think all this rubbish is a smoke screen to cover the fact that if you’re not Leann, you’re probably one of her paid minions.
Jenny12 and others have been incredibly patient with you. My patience, however, has completely left the building.
I don’t recall ever saying they will hate Eddie. But given how he’s treated their mom they just may. I think they will be extremely saddened by it. Especially when she did nothing to deserve the hate from him.
@ Hyena,
I agree with you, Brandi loves her kids but I don’t see her as a good mother either.
I don’t give Brandi credit for not getting another DUI, when she got the DUI, she was put on probation and part of that a breathalyzer was put in her car and she has to breathe into it in order to start the car. I wonder how she explained that to her kids. I wonder if she ever has car pool duty.
Hi JennySerenity- I’ve seen Hyena post on other threads and thought she made good points, so I figured we just disagreed on this point. I do tend to be fairly mellow. @aaa, you don’t have to tell me, of course, but I am curious- what makes you so staunchly pro Leann? I know Brandi has turned some people off, but you have said clearly you’re pro Leann. You don’t have a problem with some of what she and her husband do? Just curious is all. I would think the breathalyzer is gone by now as it’s been a few years.
I have no doubt Brandi’s kids love her, but I’m sure when they are adults and truly understand what went on, they will question some of the things Brandi did as well (writing about their father in TWO published books, for instance). Just because she is their mother they love dearly doesn’t mean they won’t be able to one day look logically at the situation (Brandi’s behaviour at times is downright embarrassing). I do agree however, that they will VERY likely end up hating Leann and feel resentment towards Eddiot. Leann and Eddiot are all around crappy-ass people.
Jezi, if you really are friends with Brandi, tell her to MOVE ON already. Yes, I agree that Eddiot treated her abominably, but it’s been years and he’s a f*cking loser. It’s sad that Brandi still engages with Leann – for instance, I looked at Brandi’s Twitter a few days ago and she was asking her followers what to name her new wine, and one of the possibilities was “Spitfire”. LIKE SERIOUSLY ALREADY? She needs to start carving a career out for herself that doesn’t involve Leann and Eddiot, because once those two divorce, what she’s going to go on???
Also, it’s strange to me to see people come on here and say they personally know the “celebrity” and then spend time defending them. I mean, is that really helping the person out, or is it just making the situation worse?
Ugh, I need to stop investing MY time in these 3 twits.
Brandi has moved on. In fact her restraint over all this bash Brandi publicity tour Leann and Eddie have been on has been commendable. Had it been me I would have lost it a long time ago. Once Eddie and Leann move on and leave Brandi alone I’m sure Brandi will stop reacting. And her little dig at Leann was nothing in comparison to what they do publicly and privately to taunt her.
And I rarely post on here. But I have every right to comment just like you do and I used to be a regular poster way before Brandi and I became good friends.
Yes, you have every right to comment on here (I merely said I think it’s strange that you are doing so), just like I have every right to wonder why Brandi’s friends even bother, because it just makes her look bad (as in, has she really moved on if she’s getting people to comment for her on gossip websites). So I don’t think Brandi has moved on because if she really has, she wouldn’t be making any comments about Leann at all and would just let her and Eddiot continue to dig their own graves. All around, a very sad situation.
Oh and I almost forgot about Brandi’s Twitter pictures of her wearing a unicorn mask, posing with her children…. Sad sad sad. I think that is irrefutable proof she also drags her kids into this sad situation. Why pose for a picture like that at all, let alone put it on Twitter? I felt second-hand embarrassment for her seeing that picture.
I already said I used to post and tweet about these people way before we were even friends. Im not going to stop giving my opinion just because i know her. Im not giving out her personal information. Her and I have conversations about many things that have nothing to do with those two fools. In fact we chit chat about our kids all the time. Her kids are her life and she does not drag them into anything. She always says nothing but kind things about Leann and Eddie to them. The unicorn was never about Leann. Leann made it about her after Brandi mentioned the Unicorn Chaser in her book. So your comment should actually be directed to Leann and how Leann needs to get over her complete obsession of Brandi.
Hey Little Star: Brandi has a chapter in her second book called “The Unicorn Chaser,” which is about a man she dated. The chapter & the mask, were NOT about LeAnn. As much as LeAnn would like to think so.
@Jenny12,
When and what did I ever do to lead you to believe that I am pro-Leann??!! When I called her a narcissist? When I discussed her disingenuous actions? I think you have me confused with someone else.
Just so you know I used to be a Brandi supporter and got turned off when she showed her true character or lack thereof. My criticisms of Brandi are about Brandi, not Eddie and Leann!!! Brandi Glanville is a liar, a manipulator, a narcissist and she thrives on drama, the nastier the better, and if it does not happen on its own, she will create it. And to top it all off, she does not possess any big girl panties, and when crap get real, especially the crap she creates, she goes into victim mode and has a tendency to run off in tears.
My apologies, perhaps I am confusing you with someone else. I thought you’d been saying positive things about Leann and Eddie. As for Brandi, I don’t agree with such a harsh assessment, but you have a right to your opinion. For myself, I don’t always agree with her, but I tend to see her as a decent person and loving mother who is treated abysmally by her ex and his new wife.
Over in the looney bin that is the JustJared comments section, someone who claimed once to be amejean also explains that he goes on CB as Hyena and aaa. Probably just another JJ future 5150, but interesting none the less.
respect – My respect for you just went up a zillion notches, because this made my day. Hilarious, and explains quite a bit about the trolls.
“looney bin that is the JustJared comments section” Word. Pages and pages and pages with the same comment over and over again. Or someone posts something about B, and someone else repeats switching Brandi’s name for grimes, consistently. With a few exceptions, that website seems to attract the childish and the mentally deficient.
Whoa … Stay on topic, let’s leave Brandi’s name out of the conversation. For some reason, people can’t. Not sure why that is.
Can you talk to MRS and MR Ed about keeping B’s nameout of it? I think they missed that memo…
@Izzy,
You should have gotten the hint when the person referred to the JJ comments section as a looney bin.
JSYK, I have posted under two names here, I started out as “a” and then switched to “aaa” and footnoted my first few posts so that people would know I changed names.
I think Leann’s husband Dean would say yes, there was homewrecking going on. So would Brandi’s sons with Eddie.
Exactly! It’s a rather sexist term when employed in most cases. But in THIS CASE she wrecked her own damn home, while Eddie wrecked his children’s home. People seem to forget that both parties were married sometimes. Even Leann appears to keep forgetting she was married. How is this woman so deluded? It’s actually a little scary.
Right? I remember right after she got married, she tweeted, “My 1st Easter as a wife!” It was like, you do remember the 1st husband, right? Married nearly 8 years to him? She is straight up crazy.
@jenni if bashing the mother makes eddie a bad dad, then brandi is a bad mother because she has trashed him too. Classic republican logic all the brandi fans have.
Jezi and brandi are only friends because they bonded on twitter and brandi let’s jezi do all her dirty work. And that’s all I will ever comment on that situation.
I really hate when idiots turn celebrity gossip into something about politics. How the hell can any sane logical person turn comments about reality tv stars into it being about Republicans and Democrats is beyond me.
Oh, you want to talk about doing dirty work? Then let’s talk about the harassment and taunting that came from: Leann’s producer, Leann’s road manager, Leann’s makeup artist, Leann’s twitter friends….the list goes on.
Hyena, I’m not sure what politics have to do with it. You’re not helping the Democrats at all here. I’m not affiliated with any political party because I believe they’re all liars, if you’re asking my political affiliation. As for the rest of it, I don’t think I qualify as a Brandi fan- I don’t own anything of hers, not even the books, and I don’t watch TV at all. I like her from what I’ve seen on the internet but I don’t agree with everything she does. I think she tends to comment on situations that frustrate her, as opposed to Eddie and Leann insulting her as a person and a parent. Her books have been about her life and touched on the Eddie stuff, but not an entire show or album based on her loathing of them. She will say nice things like Eddie is a good dad or the boys love Leann, whereas those 2 won’t choke out a single good word. And Leann, not even the parent of those children, has introduced them to her fans and manager and other people who bash their mom (they were at a concert where 2 fans had F Brandi shirts on and Leann gave them a shoutout and brought them backstage and introduced them to the kids) and tells the kids that they’re like family (Darrell, etc). I don’t know Jezi, but I believe they’re good friends. But you have a right to your beliefs and I won’t try to sway you.
First of all, I’m not even American so I don’t care about your politics. I’m just saying a brandi glanville fan reminds me of the attitude I see from racist and republican Muricans. And that attitude is, my person can never do any wrong and if your person does the exact same thing mine did, it’s only bad when yours does it.for example, brandi does the exact thing as leann and only leann gets slammed for it.
Here jon stewart can explain it better than I:
http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2008/09/04/28586/jon-stewart-mocks-how-oreillys-opinion-on-teen-pregnancy-gestated-over-a-period-of-months/
Okay, well, you have a right to your views. No worries. I just didn’t understand what you were saying at 1st about being a Republican.
Hyena we are friends because we bonded. That’s the only thing you’re correct about. As far as what I tweet or what I comment on that’s all on me. She has no control of what I do or say. I have had my opinion on those two clowns way before Brandi and I were friends. She doesn’t ask me to say or do anything. I’m not a Leann minion who is awarded for anything I say.
And jenny just wanted to say you seem like a nice sweet person. Thanks for typing out thoughtful answers and not shoving your agenda down my throat.
Have a great day!
Hyena, I actually thought the same of you. Very matter of fact and not nasty at all. It was a pleasure cyber speaking with you. We don’t have to agree on everything and it’s not like either of us (I don’t, anyway) know these people. See you on Celebitchy!
Hahaha jezi I’m not even commenting on your lying lies
Hyena my story has never changed so I don’t know what lies you’re referring to. I think all who know me know I pretty much have said and done the same thing from the very beginning so….
Jezi, you’re being very patient. I know it’s hard to be loyal to a friend while being a regular poster as well and being accused of being a minion. All you can do is let the truth be out there and people will decide what they think. Best wishes.
Thanks Jenny! 😉
I can attest Jezi’s been around here forever. She was here when I started reading and posting and I’m pretty sure she and Brandi weren’t friends then. And Jezi has shown remarkable patience and restraint when posting.
Huh? I’m no Brandi fan-but they were married with small kids.
Thanks jenny. I don’t know any of them either. People always call me Leann or a Leann minion which I think is hilarious! 😉
Sorry if anyone thinks I was putting down Americans, I love lots of things America but think the racism and hate baiting is destroying a great country.
No problem- I have been told I idolize Brandi, which is silly. I try not to assume things, because an impression is not always true, you know? 🙂 America is great, but there are a lot of things I dislike about it, and I am an American. I don’t like any politician. I think they lie as easily as they breathe, and the lies begin as soon as they open their mouths. P.S. Please give Jezi a chance, as you did me- she seems to be a decent girl. (I don’t know her personally.) P.P.S. I **love** Jon Stewart!
I think this press tour has been just as bad as the previous ones. Letooth and Eddie consistently knock Brandi and won’t stop talking about the cheating etc. There is something wrong with her. Seriously. She is unhealthy and at some point she is going to crash. Rehab, arrest, maybe even twitter ‘hab again.
Just so I dont leave out Eddie – He is a piece of sh*t going after Brandi (the Mother of the 2 boys he supposedly adores) every chance he gets. Leann should take a good look at what is happening because she is next in line. Eddie only loves Eddie.
Rant over
Haven’t watched the show, just reviews, and some interviews (tho those are hard to get through). I knew what a sick, twisted crazy ass Leann was, & knew Eddie was an epic douche, but had NO IDEA the extent of his own delusions of grandeur. The guy has a massive ego!! He was better off keeping his mouth shut.
ITA!
He always gave off the douche bag vibe but then he opened his mouth and the douche bag factor sky rocketed. You have a real prize there, Leann.
Can’t say I was completely surprised, but his own smugness and delusions exceeded what I imagined. Based on his interviews and the show, he completely lacks charisma.
A delusional duo of dullards.
THIS!!! Absolutely!! The biggest snake in this whole thing is Eddiot!
Absolutely! LeAnn is LeAnn, but Eddie is the real douche bag here. I do not see what LeAnn saw/sees in him in the first place. I thought Dean was a doll, still do. A poster saw the last episode of their show and commented on Eddie’s emotionally abusive behavior toward LeAnn. I mean, how dare he? She is completely supporting him, what an ungrateful douche to treat her that way. I cannot stand him.
Leann is too stupid to realize that Brandi isn’t her enemy. Eddie is a disgusting excuse for a man.
Oh Eddie’s the worst to me. He’s gotten a pass because he isn’t starting crap on Twitter and hasn’t been front and center in this. But it seems like Every. Single. Time. he has a mic and speaks, he sh*ts all over Brandi and is just as, if not more, obsessed and vitriolic towards her as Leann. Made all the worse since he spent years with her, married her, and she’s the mother of his children, who are going to hear all that sooner than later (and Google is forever). It’s amazing to me how those two have no shame at all. Their relationship was like a PR offensive from day one. The minute they got together they were flaunting their relationship, like it was some epic romance.
Eddie is vile. Just seeing the clips from their show, where he pretends to get texts or emails from Brandi, after they admitted that Brandi has been blocked for years, or the cough insults, or the smug, nasty barbs he makes sure to lob…. what a disgusting excuse for a man.
Eddie is suffering from a bruised ego. That is why he uses Leann for his dirty work and she is to dumb to see it. Most 2nd wives try to be peacemakers but Leann thinks it is cute. She claims the family she wishes she had .Eddie is so jealous that Brandi moved on and showed him she did not need him and succeeded even though he left her with nothing and he has to depend on his ATM for support . Brandi even has a TV show she is starting her 3 year on and he can’t find work. Claiming he turned down work is a joke. Mediocre actors don’t turn down work especially when they have children to support
Almost every guess for BI#6 on CDAN is them (must be the jealous/controlling wife clue).
Eddie’s behavior is of a man that did not get caught with everything that he actually did do. We all know by now that Brandi was not the love of Eddie’s life.
According to Eddie and Leann, their love story is an epic romance to them. That’s all that really matters at the end of the day.
I am a fan of true love. The Brandi/Eddie story is dead and an ugly story. The Eddie/LeAnn story is still being written.
I am curious about Eddie/LeAnn but time will tell if it’s the real thing.
I don’t think Brandi was the love of Eddie’s life, but I don’t think Leann or Scheana were, either. I think Eddie is in love with his own good looks and the sense of freedom he longs for.
Slightly OT and I’m practically replying to myself- But I’m still not clear on the timelines that Leann loves to talk about and what she thinks we have wrong about all this. The beginning of the relationship was where my attention dropped off, (Ediot and Leann just grossed me out). I didn’t start paying more attention until Leann was in that institution (for depression or rehab?) That’s what made me go WTH is up with these people. Thinking about it now, the reason I really don’t buy Leann and Eddie’s love is because they seem more bound by their hatred towards Brandi than their love of anything. I’m under the impression that Leann wasn’t even really the reason Brandi was done with Eddie once and for all and it was the waitress or somebody. Like Eddie was banging his wife, his mistress, and a random, and that was just typical behavior for him. And there may have been leaked evidence of the affair and some couples counseling? So that’s why all these years later, they are still in their feelings about something. Because Eddie’s a nightmare narcissist and still mad that Brandi dumped him? And Leann got him by default, all dinged up? Am I getting this right? Not too much love to be found, is there? I don’t get why people, like Wendy Williams, act as though they’re some loved up, wonder-couple and Eddie’s a catch. And did you notice Leann in some interview talking about their sex lives, saying, “After this many years”. As if they’ve been together 15 years or something. That’s a worry. Their marriage appears to be built on sex, hate and money.
Nope, you have lots of people giving you cyber thumbs up! 🙂
I will say that in the beginning what made the impression for people that this relationship was dysfunctional is that Leann would spend hours every day, tweeting 100s of times to twitter fans and strangers. A lot of the tweets were being very unclassy and disrespectful to Brandi and the situation, a lot of the tweets were arguing with strangers on the internet who were calling her out for being so awful (along with her entourage who were doing the same trashy taunting) and a lot of them were her over the top Happy! Happy! MeMeMe! tweets. If the relationship was all she was saying it was, and all the things she was saying were happening were really happening, she wouldn’t be able to tweet 100-200 times a day and she certainly wouldn’t be obsessing over another woman. Meanwhile, Eddie never spoke up. So now they’ve got to do this staged show and rehearsed interviews to make up for the impression she gave for years. But she lies so much, I don’t think she can really sort out that timeline herself of how it all ended up this way. 😉
It’s the same, old song… They would be long gone if she didn’t keep the home wrecker story alive. It drew me in at first, then I was sort of mesmerized by her insanity, but it’s all starting to bore me to tears now.
Yes, let’s sit and watch the Benjamin Moore together, shall we? We can wear sparkly gold bootie shorts. We’d still be infinitely more interesting, even if all we did was breathe.
Deal.
Have you seen the ratings? They’re being murdered by old episodes of American dad that can be seen pretty much any time of the day. People would rather see cartoons on a loop than watch le and ed.
Funcakes, that restores my faith in humanity a little bit.
Cue a photo of a certain person in sparkly gold bootie shorts, probably shaking (thanks to that crazy moving photo app).
It’s the lamest love triangle of all time.
Bleh. This crew of Z-listers.
I’m only here because I’m eating cheese-covered snacks and I don’t want to get my files dirty with my cheesy fingers.
(my keyboard, however, is fair game)
@TheOriginalKitten, Are you wearing sparkly gold bootie shorts? Really, that’s all that matters. And the cheese would probably blend in with spillage. Win/win.
Eh I thought the newlywed game video was cute. I also liked it when she was on the talk.
I think they have done bad things but I can’ti standi Brandi so I kinda like them.
Ya, we know Captain Obvious!
@anne
LOL!
Hyena is Leann or one of her paid peeps. No doubt about it.
Haha. Indeed captain obvious.
You can always hate all 3 of them and pity the poor children.
But you can’t make her think. One of my favorite quotes ever. *tips the hat to for they parker*
I don’t hate any of them. I actually feel pity for Leann, some sympathy for Brandi, and I don’t feel anything at all for Eddie. I actually think the linchpin in this whole toxic triangle is Eddie, not Leann.
Eddie is a disgusting human being and I am looking forward to the karma train coming at him full on. I’d feel pity for Leann if she wasn’t being so nasty towards Brandi and so inappropriate with the kids. I feel sympathy for Brandi dealing with all this and being blamed for them not being liked, as though their personalities and behavior were not the reasons. But ITA about Eddie being the lynchpin. I don’t think Brandi feels anything for him anymore, but he uses their sons to make her twist in the wind and he uses Leann’s jealousy and insecurity against her.
I can’t stand Brandi either. I cannot see why any man would want a relationship with her. They would lose from the very start. You are guaranteed a life full of embarrassment and random, uncouth moments.
I can see a guy hooking up with her. Yes, absolutely. Anything else? No, no, no, no, no…
Brandi is the only woman Eddie claimed he loved. He cried at their wedding and said it. I never heard him say he loved Leann but “we fell in love:. He probably told Scheanna the same lie, since he had an off and on again affair with her for 3 years and she ended it when she read he was having an affair with Leann. Leann was third in line for “Eddies’s love”. plus she got him on the rebound. That great love affair is Leann delusion because we know the only true love in Eddie life is Eddie. You are one of the names mention on Just Jared as a Leann minion also.
Well, Dean married Leann and was humiliated publicly and hurt badly. What did he do to deserve being cheated on?
@ Betty-
People change, and yes ,their feelings can change as well. When you want to know the truth about someone, … watch how they BEHAVE towards you and listen less to what they have to say. Otherwise, you may be coddled unnecessarily and lied to when it is convenient– See Brandi.
A man will treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
Scheanna: Young girl who got caught up in a lie from a handsome married man. Boldly sat in front of wife Brandi and tried to apologize. Probably learned her lesson and is now married to a man that actually loves her.
Brandi: Gets an F for not stopping the marriage fiasco sooner. It happens, she got played. PLUS she had not 1 but 2 children with a cheating, disrespecting man. Now she is stuck with Eddie for the rest of her life (BTW, this is not original. ) Take Eddie at his word today and hold him accountable. Keep it simple. Don’t look back. Going back in time is now pointless.
LeAnne: Asleep during her first marriage, Sprung by Eddie the lover. Now Eddie’s wife. She is in for a ride and a rollercoaster. Misses the unanimous love and adoration from fans as in the past pre-Eddie Cibrian years. That’s the sting she is living with now.
“Brandi is the only woman Eddie claimed he loved”… unh-huh. Hold on to that memory, if that is all you have and you are that desperate. (Snickers.)
How many women out there want to be Brandi and be the “object” of such a fatal, taunting attraction???
Eddie is doing Eddie. Can’t blame him, the women allow it.
Jesus Christ. So a woman marries a man she loves and gets played, eventually has the guts to divorce him, and is still at fault? Scheana wasn’t that young; she knew she was with a married guy and wanted to be there. Let’s see how she feels if it happens to her. Leann, who cheated on a good man, is public about her desire for kids with Eddie and supports him. At least Brandi had the brains to finally leave. Eddie is doing Eddie? Really? No obligation to be a better person for, say, his kids? To be a decent person?
@ Hyena-
I am with you. I couldn’t believe someone married Brandi- she is such an uncouth woman.
Maybe she learned how from leann.
Maybe an uncouth man, ever thought of that?? Birds of a feather flock together. Plus, she is drop dead gorgeous, plain and simple.
@SarahKate AND LadyD-
Brandi is responsible for HER actions and behavior. Potty-mouth, rude, vulgar, loose lips, drunk, telling the world she slept with man-whore Gerard Butler… an embarrassing messy woman.
On RHOBH she showed us who she really is and neither LeAnne nor Eddie were present out of those 3 seasons.
Just putting Brandi aside a second, you don’t really believe these “reality” shows are real? They’re partially and/or mostly scripted and completely edited and used by producers to get ratings. Duck Dynasty is southerners pretending to be hillbillies to increase their business, Pawn Stars has people hired to come in with items, Storage Wars (which I used to really like) has seeded lockers, The Hills was scripted, Jersey Shore has scripted situations…. there’s some basis in reality, but it’s like saying a basement is the whole house. I’m sure some of their personalities are there, but it’s distorted, like looking in a funhouse mirror version of yourself.
That Newlywed game was a joke. These 2 have been together for 5 years, according to Leann’s math when she counted the months of them banging on the Lifetime movie set, and yet they only got one question right. They don’t know anything about one another.
I will say, we’ve been together for almost ten years (since we were in 9th grade), and are getting married this month, and while I have not watched the video – if I had to list all of Der’s favorite things, I’m not sure how well we’d do. Though, I bet if we sat down and actually answered things, we’d be pretty spot on. I just have a hard time determining my own favorite things, haha.
However, given that it’s Leann, I’m surprised she didn’t coach Eddie on all of these things beforehand.
That is great that you found true love at such a young age. I’ve been with my husband for 14 years. I think I could answer questions about him pretty well- favorite food, band, etc. Not sure if I could do literally everything, but we finish each others’ sentences, so I want to think we’d do okay.
That is because Eddie was only interested in Leann the cash cow not Leann the person and she only saw Eddie “good looks” not his character.@ Hyena is one of Leann minions and likes to bash Brandi so what can you expect
No, BETTY.
Brandi has showed her ass one time too many on RHOBH, WHHL and her podcasts. She is rude and an embarassing woman.
And no, your character does not get a pass just because your husbands cheats on you. And no, a man cheating on you is not a basis for a new friendship.
Brandi was a wife that STAYED with a man that was cheating on her… AND she had children with him, TWICE, even AFTER her suspicions. She has to own that.
So she’s mad that he loves the boys but not her, the mother? The truth is Eddie is still at a place where he still does not respect the mother of his children. FACT.
Sometimes marriages can survive infidelity. But there were obviously so many respect and trust issues between Eddie and Brandi,as amply-evidenced in the post-divorce years that we are all commenting.
Can I ask what makes you think she’s mad that he loves the boys but not her? She expects him to no longer love her, he has a new wife to (gag) love. What got me was his ‘I have no respect for her,’ line, This after she nursed his mother back to health when she got cancer. No respect for her. I wonder what his mother thought of that line. The guy is a ditch pig and so is his oozing wife.
@LadyD–
I hear you. All the more reason to MOVE ON. There are no winners here.
Brandi’s books were in poor taste, IN ADDITION to my earlier comments, and so my assessment of her stands.
I have said it before, Brandi is an uncouth woman who behaves like an annoying woman-child. I do not feel sorry for her anymore than I feel sorry for LeAnne putting up with public venom for marrying her lover. LeAnne and Eddie are married now. Both are paying the price of bad choices. It was their choice to have an affair and it was their choice to get married while Brandi still wanted her marriage to work.
LeAnne’s behavior to Brandi is par for the course because it is just a continuation of Eddie disrespecting his ex-wife. We get it, Eddie. And no, I do not feel sorry for Brandi ON ANY LEVEL.
Brandi is paying the price of staying with a man too long after it is clear that the love, honor, respect and trust had died in the marriage. If you want to hug and hold her hand for being naive, … scream foul-play and buy “Team Brandi” T-shirts… well that’s your choice.
Leann cheated on Dean. SHE was married at the time. You seem to feel Brandi deserved the hurt; did Dean? How do you reconcile things like taking the boys on vacation and groping Eddie in front of them? Or the over the top sexual behavior at their games? Or Leann stripping off and Eddie photographing her makeout sessions with Liz on a public balcony with the kids inside? That’s not rude and uncouth? As a parent, it infuriates me. Leann’s photos with her implants hanging out, or the shots of her in tiny bikinis while others around her are clothed? Brandi was with a man who doesn’t respect women, but so is Leann. And she is pushing publicly to have kids with him. I think people feel sympathy for Brandi because you get over a bad relationship- which I think she has, but it took her a couple years- but to have to deal with someone like Leann who just decides that the kids are hers to do with as she likes from day one is just unbearable. And while Brandi may have made public errors, Leann and Eddie are being ripped apart by neutral TV critics who can’t believe they have an entire show based on bashing Brandi. This is after Leann’s interviews on the topic and after an entire record based on it that she taught to Brandi’s sons. I’d rather hear the F word than deal with a person like that around my kids. Of course, Leann publicly gave a shout out to two fans wearing F Brandi shirts and brought them backstage to meet Brandi’s kids, so, while Eddie is keeping up his disgusting behavior, Leann- a 32 year old adult- is responsible for hers.
Sigh…
Cheating is always the glaring, embarrassing symptom to a weak relationship or which the foundation of a relationship has developed cracks.
Isn’t Dean remarried and living a life that is NOT connected to LeAnne?? THIS IS EXACTLY HOW YOU MOVE ON – SWIFTLY AND QUIETLY.
Brandi was not able to do so – BECAUSE SHE CHOSE NOT TO BE QUIET and PROTECT HER PRIVACY. Her choice, remember? She did NOT have to respond.
The notion that LeAnne was trying to “steal” Brandi’s kids is just plain stupid.
Whatever Eddie is doing with LeAnne is between LeAnne and Eddie. They are married and do whatever pleases them. Brandi is no saint on ANY LEVEL (open to threesomes with a cheating husband???) and needs a man. These one night stands and sporadic dating patterns have not done anything to boost her self-confidence as we have seen on TV.
BOTH Brandi and Eddie are to blame for the shi**y relationship they have as co-parents. Brandi has admitted that there have been times when they did not communicate. Again, she is paying the consequences of birthing children with a cheating, disrepectful man. As long as Brandi is thirsty for revenge and not adamantly checking Eddie to be respectful to her about their children, LeAnne will continue to do whatever she does (tweeting, taunting, copying, obsessing, whatever new vice she plans on employing next).
Finally, I see Brandi for who she is, based on her character on TV for 3 seasons…. I have not seen LeAnne for 3 seasons on anything. Pointing out that the new wife is worse does not move Brandi out of the uncouth category. It just means that Eddie likes ’em a certain way…
But Dean could move on because no kids were involved. And Leann was doing things like taking Brandi’s kids on vacation, behaving as though she were a 3rd parent from the get-go, posting pictures of the boys on Christmas while Brandi spent the holidays without her sons. She was showing up at Parents’ Day when she was Eddie’s girlfriend to sing for the class. She and Eddie wouldn’t allow Brandi to see her child on his birthday if it wasn’t her custodial day. They admitted to blocking Brandi so she couldn’t co-parent nor contact her sons. She used to respond, but wouldn’t it be hard not to? She’s been ignoring all the nonsense thrown her way with the show, etc. I can’t sit here and defend everything she does because I don’t watch her show, but you can’t possibly think ANY reality show is based in reality. It’s editing and partial scripts and whatever will get ratings. I mean, my husband watches Bear Grylls and I keep saying, “You know he’s not really in any danger, right? There are CAMERAS right there.”
Ok, can we stop talking about Brandi?? Why are we still discussing her?
“The photographers are all over LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian these days – but this time, they’ve invited them.” Don’t they always invite them to come photograph their beach trips, sons’ soccer games, shopping sprees etc.
Yes. They invited them to see a makeout session with Liz as well. And on vacations as well. And the earliest days, when the separation with Brandi first happened, they invited the paps on vacations with the boys so Leann could be photographed holding Eddie’s diseased privates. They even invited them on the honeymoon.
..and don’t forget Leann splits the proceeds from these pics that are sold.
I know, Eddie and Leann sell those boys’ images like they have a shelf life. :/
Her selfies are such a wonderful source of comedy to me. All LeAnn, all the time. I don’t think that I have taken as many selfies in two years that she probably takes in two days. That is just so delusional to me!
Also, if people were still talking about something that happened in my personal life five years ago, and it was the ONLY thing they were interested in about me, I might shoot myself. Lol.
It’s because SHE keeps bringing it up. Hollywood is filled with marriages and relationships that started when the principals were married to other people. (Even beloved stars like Tom Hanks!) Yet they don’t discuss it and are able to move on without such negativity.
It’s because it’s the only thing that matters to her. She believes she’s in some major love story and that she’s a huge part of the kids’ lives. If she is amenable to Eddie’s no kids edict, then she should be focusing on acting roles and good music. But the truth is that the drama consumes her.
I believe this all comes from Leann’s deep insecurity.
she just… is not pretty.
Is the PR campaign “good” if nobody is watching and the ratings suck? Because this thing is tanking hard. And aside from here and a couple of other gossip blogs, nobody’s even talking about the show — not even to hatewatch.
Can someone please, please, please make this woman/child go away and take Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Aniston with her?
Can that include Gosselin, Octomom, and Courtney Stodden? GO AWAY. And take your STD husband with you.
AGAIN??!!!???
Somebody change the record. PLEASE.
But, the world must listen! She just had the tape pulled off her mouth with the tools she never had before. If we think this is the 5000th time we’ve heard this tale of self-created woe, then shame on us for we must all be jealous haters!
Now, now. The entire album dedicated to the affair was only a fraction of this boring story…..
Well, pardon me if I am wrong, LeAnn…but you ARE a homewrecker and you did kind of try and steal Brandi’s kids…..so where’s the misconception?
Well, pardon me if I am wrong, LeAnn…but you ARE a homewrecker and you did kind of try and steal Brandi’s kids…..so where’s the misconception?
My guess is they aren’t doing a ton of press because no one cares, no one is watching the show, and whatever network they’re on isn’t going to bother with it anymore.
If either of them wants people to talk about something besides the affair and their creepy marriage, maybe one or both of them should actually DO something. Like act or sing.
So LeAnn paid People to write that crap? There went People’s respectability down the toilet. And why is this dumb show still on the air? Proud to say I haven’t watched it. The previews were too cringeworthy. With all the bad reviews and the awful ratings, why hasn’t the show been pulled?
I could be wrong but I think LeAnn funded the whole thing. Maybe that is why it is still on?
You’re not wrong.
I just want to say I feel bad for her dad being used for this. She had the nerve to say on The Talk that the media has dragged her dad’s name through the mud for years. Um, Leann, YOU dragged his name through the mud. YOU made accusations. YOU wore the t-shirt about it to the awards show. YOU were taped saying you could win the case and get sympathy because you can cry at the drop of a hat. YOU are the one who gave that info to the media and you are the one whose Dad saw an out of control brat whose mom was letting older men stay at the house and party with her, tried to step in and in return got ostracized. That is all on you.
These two are trying really really hard to rewrite history.
One of her dad’s clients spent 2 weeks tweeting Leann to tell her her stepmom was in the hospital – she seemed to ignore it. Her dad’s dad dies – she puts up instagrams of her and friends twerking at the pool in LA. All this time before filming, and her and her out of work husband can’t go visit? No other time available? Her poor dad. Being used hard.
This, all. day. long. I don’t get why NO ONE calls Leann on her endless BS. There is endless proof of her lying and vindictive ways on the internet. SOMEONE call her on it!!
Because they’re PR interviews. Talk show hosts are never going to attack their celebrity guests like that. That’s why she makes sure to go on these soft ones. They’re all about butt-kissing.
I would like to volunteer to interview them. Or I’d like to see Ilana Angel interview them.
I love Billy Bush….he is the only one that called her out on tv.
He’s the only one who ever did, which is sad.
Jenny12
that is never going to happen.
Ilana that is.
I know, and it’s a pity. All Leann does is get babied by the press for being a hit 20 years ago. If someone would call her on all her BS, things would be a lot different.
Both LeAnn and Eddie seem to be missing something in their personalities, that allows them to feel empathy and humility. They both coms across as insanely narcissistic and arrogant. They are both manipulative users and I can’t even imagine what it would be like to have to deal with them on a personal level. Using her Father like this is just par for the course for her. He’s just another prop to her. It’s like whenever a celebrity dies, they were her dearest friend, or how she says that her friend’s Mother died and she has a stomach bug, like they are of equal depth. She uses other people’s tragedies to garner sympathy from her fans and that’s disgusting. She tweets about her Grandfather’s death, but couldn’t be bothered to support her Father at the funeral. It might interfere with her time vacationing or hanging out by the pool, with her bought and paid for husband and BFF’s. The incident with her “Bonus-Mom” being seriously ill and her not even knowing, was very telling. She couldn’t care less and all her talk about how much she loves her bonus parents is complete BS.
Sociopathic personalities are like that. They don’t know, care, or understand about the pain they cause others. The reason I first became aware of these two was their photos at games and on vacations where they were over the top sexual with each other and it was like, didn’t they just separate from their spouses? That’s bad enough, but how about some courtesy for those little kids, who must be so confused? These two care about themselves and no one else. I believe the pain they cause others is sexual to them. Sick.
Ever noticed that family members havent exactly been falling out the wood work to come to Leann’s defense? And when she takes a picture with them it look like a hostage situation.
Both Leann and Eddie send chills down my spine. There’s something really not right with either one. I’d be crazy with worry if I were Brandi when the boys are with them.
Is it me or the song “push it’ does not really qualify as a cute song for a couple ?
It’s a sex song. We’re supposed to be shaking our collective heads over their amazing sex life.
“Baby, baby, get up on this” who said romance was dead ? 🙂
The picture I just got of the 2 of them and this song…. I guess I won’t have lunch after all.
America’s “A horse with no name”
I curse them both for ruining one of my favorite tunes from Salt n Pepa.
Tacky, tacky! It looked funny to see him bring up that song because he looks like he’s in his 50’s or so. Not really a song an older man would choose as his “relationship” song. Just looked weird to me.
Lawdamercy that nose on her!!! Of all the plastic surgery she’s had trying to morph into Brandi I can’t believe she never thought to fix that thing.
Doesn’t matter what she does on the outside, that is a bit of a lost cause. What she really needs is plastic surgery for her soul.
I’ve heard lots of people saying singers don’t usually go for nose jobs because it can change their singing voice. Have also heard that’s why Barbra Streisand never got one.
I know their show is close to being cancelled but does anyone have the latest ratings numbers?
Hey sweetie!!! It will probably be out Monday like last episode. I’m sure it won’t be good for them though.
Everyone knows Brandi hasn’t moved on. If she did, why was she passive aggressively tweeting about unicorns last week?
If she’s moved on, why is she friends with the brandi twitter army against leann leader AKA you.
Does anyone have a link to it in the internet? Not whole episodes, or maybe, but I’m dying of morbid curiosity and won’t give it a network nod.
Thanks honey,
I love the pics of Xavier you post. I get a smile or chuckle from each one.
Take Care.
Hyena whats your problem? The unicorn was never about Leann. Brandi wrote about the Unicorn Chaser in her book. Leann is the one who started tweeting about unicorns after that. So if you want to get into semantics then perhaps you should be preaching to Leann about why she’s completely obsessed with Brandi. And there is no twitter army. We all choose not to put money in the pockets of two people who wish to hurt someone who does not deserve it. And if Im this powerful perhaps I should run for office if i can control thousands upon thousands of people!
Aaawww Rita, how do I miss u. He’s a funny boy. He is going to be quite the actor.
@Hyena: You are truly delusional if you think Jezi is some sort of leader in an army against Leann. Leann has earned her public scorn fair and square. All of her own. I’ve seen Jezi on Twitter. She’s not even remotely one of the most prolific or vocal people talking about Leann. It’s really weird that you’re picking on her.
Hyena, Jezi is really being nice. Please give her a chance, the same way you did me. She isn’t throwing accusations at you. You can like Leann, I can dislike her, Jezi can support her friend- no biggie. Though I think I *would* vote Jezi into office….
Thank you Claire and Jenny! I would change the world!!! Bwahahaha! Just kidding. I despise politics.
Well, I despise politicians. They lie as soon as their mouths open. We need mamas to change the world! I think that’s why Brandi resonates with so many of us. You don’t f— with someone’s motherhood. Leann is repulsive.
Jezi, I’m pretty sure her problem has something to do with being off her medication.
I don’t think it will be canceled because I read they financed the thing themselves. They have some strange deal with VH1 to air it.
It will be after the last episode they have 3 to go and it will be history. They paid for it let them show it. But it was money wasted. The only thing they proved is nobody likes them or care about their TRUTH!
It’s obvious to me she and Eddie are trying to sell themselves as new and improved, as if their behavior the last five years can just be forgotten and history rewritten. Can’t believe she said her Dad got a horrible wrap from the media. As I remember, he hit back hard at her with his own lawsuit of some truths and the public saw her for the brat she is. She’s proven time and time again her true character i.e. canceled concerts, affair, lawsuits, huge ego, hatefulness publicly, her and friend’s abuse of Brandi, but yet somebody, somewhere, besides her, thinks they can revamp her and douche and sell a new image. Too little and way too late if you ask me. Humors me when I see somebody actually say how sweet and giving and what a wonderful in love couple they are. Are these people blind to her behavior over the years that has never changed (and his)? Oh, and let’s notice what a happy, supportive husband Eddie is since the show. No wonder she is pooping her pants with glee at how he is being portrayed! Pics in past when he was unaware of paps (which seldom happened) shows him walking ahead of her and looking mad and miserable. Now, all of a sudden we are to believe he is the perfect devoted husband. Please…make me barf.
Leann and Eddie are playing up the lovey dovey angle/newly wed games because Eddie’s ex-mistress Scheana got married 3 days ago and did an exclusive with In Touch about her wedding and last weeks episode of Leann and Eddie only brought in 367,000(374,000 for the first episode) total viewers and 238,000(252,000 for the first episode) viewers for the target audience of 18-49. Her show is not doing well. Why is Leann being babied by the press with bad ratings like this? Instead of exposing their show for the flop it is, the press keeps trying to force feed to us that Eddie and Leann are a cute and happy couple. Leann spends her days on twitter, using a fake twitter account to harass Brandi and then tweeting to people who harass Brandi.
Why did Leann and Eddie pick the Volleyball theme for their photo shoot with People Magazine? Brandi was photographed playing Volleyball with her sons in 2012. If Leann is happy with Eddie why is every part of her life copied from Brandi’s?
There is nothing sincere about Leann’s reconciliation with her father. It was just a storyline for her show. How many times has Leann spoken to her father or visited him since they filmed that episode? Leann was tweeting and posting photos the entire time they were filming in Nashville and she and Eddie weren’t alone, Kiki and another one of her friends was there in Nashville, so why are we being fed that Eddie and Leann are a couple in love? During the filming, Leann posted photos of her and Eddie fishing with Jake and Mason, Eddie riding an ATV, her and Eddie kissing and making out while Eddie’s mother stood in the background and watched, herself on the wrecker truck, horses in the field, the lasso around her waist pretending that Eddie lassoed her, photos of Kiki and another one of her friends. Their show is so fake and phony because we have seen it all play out as she was filming it. When they filmed that episode, Leann was on twitter arguing with people because they didn’t think that the wrecker joke was funny.
Where were Jake and Mason while Eddie was hanging out with Leann’s father? Are we now going to act like they weren’t there in Nashville or that they weren’t in the background? Since Leann was tweeting the entire they filmed, Eddie and Leann’s father weren’t left alone to bond. Their show is so fake because her tweets don’t match up with the storyline.
Does Leann have another special interview coming up?
I forgot about all that. The clips and reviews are putting it like she had to find time to visit with her dad. It’s all so fake and contrived.
With the lousy reviews and horrible ratings, I think they are pulling out every stop they possibly can. I think they truly believe they are so charming that they will somehow force people to see things their way. Brandi hasn’t said a word, and her fans haven’t said a word either. It will be interesting to see how they try to make this into Brandi’s fault, which you know they will.
Nice catch there, @why? I forgot all about all the twatting during the visit. That is the infamous “wrecker service” picture time. And there were pics of Mason and Jake fishing. Wow, the show is just as fake as everyone said it would be.
Sorry for stirring up sh*t, but might “Push it” also be just as inspiring in a laxative ad? Quick Smitty, get Ex-lax on the phone!
LOL!
I would laugh, except I used to have that song as my ringtone! I LOVE that song! One of my faves growing up. Boooo on those two trash heaps for ruining it.
Looks like Wewe & Ediot struck out again….they failed to make the top 100 cable shows on Thursday. Three strikes.
When the karmic post office delivers, it’s a hell of a package.
True Jenny12 And they deserve every second of this and what’s to come!
I have watched the show (online) and I have a question: Wilbur Rimes’ current wife is Vicki, so she is Leann’s step-mother. I think that little boy Cameron is Vicki’s son. If he is Vicki’s son that would make Cameron Leann’s step-brother. So my question is, why on the show is Cameron called “Leann’s nephew”? And why isn’t Vicki Leann’s “bonus-mom”? Is Cameron Vicki’s grandson? And if he is where are Vicki’s kids?
And what happened to Wilbur’s second wife Catherine, the mistress who Wilbur left Belinda for? Anyone know what’s up here? When I saw that I thought, “Wait. For Leann to have a nephew she would have to have a brother or sister and there is no record of a brother or sister so how does she have a nephew?” I cannot find anything about it via online searches. But it would not surprise me if Leann redefined the familial titles to suit herself, much as she did with Brandi’s boys.
Also, on Leann’s website (searching for info) there is an “article” written by “User.” Leann is asked about Mason and Jake, “would you ever let them pursue a career in the music industry at a young age?” And she answers the question, like she has a say. I nearly choked. I think Brandi deserves allot of credit for not being in jail. I mean, for God’s sake. What a delusional whack job Leann is.
Thank you! I swore it said he was Leanne’s nephew also and I couldn’t figure it out since she’s an only child! Lying liar faces, all of them.
Unless the latest stepmom has grandchildren, how can the boy be a (step) nephew? Two only children cannot have nieces and nephews.
I have also wondered what happened with Cat (the first stepmother, who publicly called her out years ago). Wish she would do an interview (I’d also like to hear Keegan’s story).
In the south they have a lot of “play” relatives not fo real. Wilbur, Leann dad got divorced from Cat the mistress that broke up her family. Leann never called her a bonus mom or had much of relationship with him until he remarried.Brandi said Mason wanted to be a Vet and Jake a gangsta rapper. Leann tries to pretend she has a relationship with the kids she wish she had. All hers is just talk.
Please hurry with the divorce already, so bored with this sham of a marriage.
Sure, LeAnn should have had the sense to stay away from a married man, but Eddie should have had the sense to not cheat on his wife and get a divorce first if LeAnn is the “love of his life”and Brandi should have hade the sense to not go into twitter-wars with LeAnn. They’re all assholes and they annoy me. They’re not doing those kids any favors, but I guess the well-being of Mason and Jake is not high on their list of priorities, otherwise all three adults would keep their mouths shut.
You do know Leann was married at the time she began this affair?
I don’t see where Brandi has said a thing about these two in at LEAST a year and a half, if you know something please post it. For Bradi she’s moved on.
I say the same thing- give her credit for trying to change her behavior, behavior that most of us would be engaging in out of frustration. She has not addressed them or spoken about them for a very long time, even while they have used her sons as publicity tools and spoken horribly of her.
Brandi’s been doing really well lately in regards to not engaging, but shes not a robot. Its easy to tell someone to move on when you aren’t in their position. I’m sure that Eddie and LeAnn are even bigger psychos behind the scenes, than they are in public and that must be very difficult to deal with. They both seem to get off of tormenting Brandi and then playing holier than thou and pretending to take the high road. Eddie knows she nursed his Mother through cancer and has the gall to say he never respected her. Really, you didn’t respect the woman who took your Mom into your home and held her head while she threw up from chemo? That says a lot about him and his values. It’s so emotionally abusive and people demanding Brandi ignore it and never respond isn’t fair. She has to deal with LeAnn’s constant efforts to demean her position as Mother and her daily “my boys” crap too. On top,of it, her ex is all over bragging about how much money he has now, courtesy of his new wife, all while trying to make her pay back support. It must be so frustrating.
@michele,
Did you miss when Brandi lied for not damn reason other than she’s a liar and tweeted that Eddie Cibrian wanted her to pay him child support?
Other examples:
Brandi said that Leann’s ex-husband Dean Sheremet was going to be on her podcast and to expect good info, in the end Dean did not appear on the show.
Brandi stated (lied IMO) that Eddie and LeAnn wanted her to be on their show.
Brandi said on her podcast that someone on the cast of Eddie and LeAnn’s show was her spy.
Brandi discussed Eddie and Leann in her latest book including calling Leann a “c u next Tuesday.”
On their show, Eddie and Leann said that Brandi was behind the story about them getting a divorce and Leann drinking excessively. Leann also said that there was another story that Brandi was shopping around. I’m not saying that you should believe them but they are allegations that if true, shows that Brandi not only does things out in the open but behind the scenes as well and makes me wonder about other stories that have come out over the years.
ETA:
JSYK there are more incidents than what I listed.
@aaa
Boy, are you reaching.
Dean was going to be on Brandi’s podcast but he bailed. Probably because he has a non-disclosure agreement in his divorce settlement from Leann. That divorce went through fast with no fanfare whatsoever. Hmmmm, why would that be? Because he got big money to leave and leave quickly. Even for a therapy session Leann & Eddie had Brandi sign a confidentiality agreement, so we know that is Leann’s mo. I bet Dean had a convo with his attorney who told him not to do the show.
Eddie may still take child support from Brandi because the day may come (or has already) that Brandi makes more money than him. The only reason he does not go after child support is because of how it would be perceived by the public since his wife has “millions.” One hint: not good. The facts are that Eddie, who was going off with a wealthy woman and leaving Brandi with nothing, took half of EVERYTHING in the divorce; dishes, silverware, and he fought for the car Brandi’s dad gave them when they were married. If you think he is not too petty to go after child support, you are deluded.
Eddie and Leann did want Brandi on their show. It was confirmed by sources other than Brandi. They were desperate for good ratings. And of course, they need Brandi for that; not one article or interview is ever done or written about Leann anymore without mentioning Brandi; not Dean, Brandi. That’s very telling (and it’s gotta sting).
There is a very good chance that Brandi had a spy on the set of their show; Leann has tried to usurp anyone that Brandi has had dealings with: friends, surgeons, dentist, where she shops, etc..,etc.
And yes, Brandi did call Leann a cuntry singer in her book. If she had tried to steal you whole life you would too. And it seems that most of the populace agrees with Brandi because: very few people are watching their show (fewer people than the number of followers Leann has on twitter); very few people bought Sh*tfire or Lady and Gentlemen. Leann is not doing arena’s; she’s singing in casinos and theme parks and not selling those out even. People don’t like her. And if you read anything about her behavior from the past she is a spoiled brat who has a history of lying and acting up to get her way.
If you think that Leann does not plant stories about Brandi AND herself, you are deluded.
I probably just wasted my time typing all this. I am pretty sure you are Leann or someone in Leann’s employ. But you need to come up with something more logical as proof that Leann is the put-upon martyr here. Oh wait, you can’t because we all have proof that you, Leann, are a bully.
I know aaa has said she is only anti-Brandi, but I have to say, everything being pointed out by her is coming from what seems to be her sympathetic POV of poor Leann/Eddie having to put up with her. Not a single word about Brandi remaining disengaged for well over a year, including the current media onslaught from Leann/Eddie that even neutral TV critics are shaking their heads over. My disgust over their actions includes their venom- easily proven- towards Brandi but ia much more based on the way they treat the children as pawns and tools, especially against their own mother, and for publicity to boot. There is legal paperwork pointing to Eddie’s request to get money back, and Dean Sheremet issued a sweet Twitter note to Brandi that apologized for not being able to come on the show.
@rlh,
What do you mean by “Boy, are you reaching”??? My comment was in response to michele, which I clearly noted. Michele posted, “I don’t see where Brandi has said a thing about these two in at LEAST a year and a half, if you know something please post it. “
Everything I listed happened in the last year and a half.
rlh/Michele, that kind of commitment to their idea of things means that anyone else’s POV is unimportant. I can’t believe anyone would go on about being single as though that means a woman is lesser than another if not in a relationship. I’ve been married for years, and I am not superior to anyone due to being married. I can’t believe in this day and age someone would believe having a man- much less a cheating, lying tool like Eddie- makes a female superior. Ugh. I love my husband, but I was fine before him, I’m fine on my own and not just as his wife, and so is ANY woman. The article referenced in the post did not even speak about Brandi.
@Jenny12,
Why would I comment about Brandi “remaining disengaged for well over a year” when that is clearly untrue as evidenced by the list I posted. What did I post that made you think that I was being sympathetic to Eddie and Leann? I called Brandi a liar two maybe three times, Eddie and Leann’s names came up because I was responding to a post about the three of them.
You seem determined to make me out to be some kind of Eddie and Leann cheerleader, but I have made numerous comments that show I am not. If you are Brandi supporter more power to you, but please accept that I am not and have a sound basis for my dislike and disregard of Brandi Glanville.
ETA:
If I post something about Brandi that you disagree with, feel free to express that, but it’s getting tiring responding to you and others deflections and diversions about me being some kind of Eddie and LeAnn sympathizer.
aaa, I said seems to, etc. I think I’m polite when I express myself, and in all fairness, so are you, but you don’t *have* to respond if you don’t wish to. Your referencing Leann and Eddie’s “troubles” (I myself am not convinced) with Brandi make it seem as though you’re sympathetic to them. I don’t always see you referencing the housewives series, which would make me think your dislike of her is not just based on the situation with her ex. Also, the article in this post hadn’t anything to do with Brandi. it was about Leann and Eddie, and you didn’t say anything about them, just Brandi. So it’s a perception. I accept what you say at face value, and I will say I appreciate you not making me out to be some Brandi fanatic and I will try not make comments that make you uncomfortable. Brandi makes a LOT of mistakes, but she’s not educated and I frankly don’t think she’s a rocket scientist. So I give her a bit of leeway, and a lot of sympathy due to the situation with her kids; she seems a decent sort to me. I think moms relate to her; I do because I can’t imagine having my kids in this nightmare. However, I would like to point out that I wasn’t just referring to you. There are posts talking about how of course Brandi is single, etc, like that is the most awful thing that could happen to a woman and it’s a sign of worth to be in a relationship. I can’t stand that, no matter WHO is being referred to. My friend- sweet, kind, generous, great job- was married to a total louse who was rampantly unfaithful and she did her best to work things out and then divorced him when he didn’t change. It isn’t her fault she’s alone and it isn’t her fault that her ex is a complete douchebag. Brandi made mistakes, but it isn’t her fault that Eddie cheated on her and it isn’t Dean’s fault that Leann cheated, either.
@mazomazohyst—
Great! Another one not taking ANY side. Dean and LeAnne’s marriage is not on display.
Brandi and Eddie’s is because they would not shut up about it! Eddie and LeAnne? Same thing.
Take out Brandi and replace her with Maria Shriver, Nicole or Katie (Tom Cruise’s ex-wives) Uma Thurman, or Nicole Murphy, … each one of them had HELL to deal with but they kept out of the public eye even though the public was hungry for details.
We will see if Brandi is smart enough to remain disengaged. Time will tell.
Hose women you mentioned didn’t have to deal with the power imbalance Brandi was up against.
Also they didn’t have to deal with the other woman trying to steal their kids.
And @; Deanne, great post. ITA.
@Zooyork, you are so right about the imbalance of power. They ganged up on her from the start. They used LeAnn’s money and access to the best lawyers to completely screw her over in the divorce. They force her into situations where she has to waste money on a lawyer to resolve it, because Eddie’s not allowed, or too cowardly, to speak directly to her and heaven forbid they use a mediator because then LeAnn would not get to dictate what’s going on. These other women also didn’t have to contend with an extremely immature and entitled, Twitter addict, posting constant photos and blurbs claiming step-children as being theirs regardless of who gave birth to them either. While all of these women had jerks for husband’s, they didn’t have that to contend with and all came out of their divorces with a lot of money. They didn’t have to start new careers in their mid thirties either. The situations are very, very different on every level.
@Zooyork and Deanne,
There was definitely a power imbalance with Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and Nicole lost the children she shared with Tom. IMO Tom Cruise’s power actually came from his affiliation with Scientology and the fact that there are other A List members of that church. The way that the power would be used was that things could happen to jeopardize Nicole’s acting career, and it’s been alleged that Nicole walked away to save her acting career.
But I am trying to understand what the power imbalance was with Eddie and Brandi? To me it looked like Eddie and Brandi’s situation was that they were a couple getting a divorce and the main dispute was over child custody. Eddie was a cheater, that was easily proven. In the end Eddie was able to show that while he was a cheater, he was a fit parent, and perhaps that Brandi’s parenting skills were lacking, and that the children would be better off with him and Brandi having the same amount of custody.
I am not seeing where Eddie and Leann got together and exercised some kind of power play over Brandi, or even why it was necessary.
Tell your tale to Leann and Eddie they are the one trying to cash in on it to no avail The custody had nothing to do with Brandi or Eddie being a fit parent but one wanting to have equal amount of time. How was Eddie being a fit parent when he was out bedhopping when he should have been with his kids. The court looks at the the best interest of the kids not parents, That is why the equal arrangements was awarded . Eddie has not had steady employment for 4 years and not a man of means but had his support payments lowered. So as a good father why would he turned down jobs because they are not convenient. We know who pays the bills an buys everything. and as a reward he allows Leann to have her way with the kids when they are with him. He fools no one. That twitter war Brandi and Leann had is with Eddie blessings it feeds his bruised ego, Instead of wanting his kids growing up without strife and competition. I notice when he has been publicly asked he avoids it or makes light of it. You are right they have no power over Brandi but uses the kids as pawns for their sick games That” reality” show shows them in their true light and it is backfiring on them big time.
Ediot must be really pissed that Brandi isn’t responding to them any more. How can he get even with her if she just ignores him? Go Brandi.
Yes, but Brandi had no power. These women did. Nicole had SOME power, but not as much as Tom, and she lost her kids. Brandi wasn’t willing to. Eddie wanted to punish Brandi for whatever sick reason, and Leann felt the same way, so they started using the kids. No mother puts up with that.
I hope aaa is wrong about Nicole Kidman giving up her kids for her acting career, but I must admit that all signs point to it. Depressing.
aaa: Okay, I have stayed out of the comments and have just been getting a kick out of reading them, but now I have to respond. I respect your opinions as you are entitled to have your own opinions. However, I think it’s ridiculous that you jump to the conclusion that Eddie received 50% percent custody because he’s a fit parent and Brandi is less than fit. It was well documented in court records that Brandi could have gone for full custody had she wanted to (and perhaps if she was as vindictive as you would like to portray her as, she might have), but she chose not to because she didn’t want her kids to never see Eddie. I’m not a fan of any of these people involved, and while Brandi has said snarky things about Leann and Eddie before, she has ALWAYS complimented him on being a great dad (a courtesy he has never extended to her, I might add). That’s why they agreed on 50/50 custody. Their custody arrangement should in no way act as some indication that Brandi is an unfit parent. That’s just ridiculous. A lot of great parents going through divorces choose to get 50/50 custody because they don’t want to deprive the kids of either parent. That’s called being a responsible parent, far from unfit.
Yes, that’s what I meant. She also is polite enough to say the boys love Leann. Neither of them ever bother to say something courteous beyond Leann publicly announcing she has sent Brandi flowers once in a while, as though it makes up for all the things she does, like calling the boys her sons, or posting their photos, or papping them, or saying she has no respect for Brandi.
@Kristin,
You are wrong. I am not jumping to conclusions about how the custody arrangement came about and I’ll show you my documentation if you show me yours.
1. The documentation actually supports that Brandi petitioned for primary custody and Eddie petitioned for split custody. I’ve read papers where Brandi actually stated that she is a stay at home parent and primary caregiver, with the help of nannies of course, and that she should be awarded primary custody because of Eddie’s acting schedule.
Furthermore Brandi has said / tweeted, more than once, that she “lost” her kids 50% of the time. When her friends on Real Housewives are making excuses for her, they also brought up Brandi losing her kids.
While I think that Brandi is vindictive, I don’t think her requesting primary custody was vindictive, it was simply that she and Eddie wanted different custody arrangements and Eddie prevailed.
2. Brandi has not ALWAYS complimented Eddie as a great dad. She has been more complimentary in recent interviews, but she has also done interviews where she called Eddie a bad father.
3. When I brought up the custody matter it was in response to comments about Eddie, with the help of his then girlfriend Leann, exercising a great amount of power over helpless, little Brandi. The point I was making was that Eddie and Brandi’s divorce seemed pretty straight forward with the main dispute being over child custody. In the end Eddie won the child custody related dispute, and I wrote that Eddie, who was already pegged as a cheater with a job that has erratic hours that sometimes requires he work out of town, “perhaps” was able to overcome his negatives by bringing up negatives about Brandi. JSYK that is not random speculation by me, Eddie did bring up in his divorce / custody papers negative things about Brandi like her being verbally and physically abusive towards Eddie in front of their children.
How did this woman become someone I have to look at and hear about all the time?? I remember her being a country singer. I don’t have to constantly see photos and crap about other country singers, so why her? It upsets me because I find her squinty face so unpleasant to look at. I don’t like to look at her cheese-bomb husband either. I don’t even want to see them, let alone know anything about their screwed-up lives!
Apparently we are all being punished for something.
Brandi should just take a giant step back, now. Let this family be happy. The boys are happy, eddie and Leann are happy, so Brandi should just keep shtooping her ex, the one who lives with another woman. Brandi is trying to be a homewrecker but he doesn’t want to keep her!
Whose home is Brandi wrecking? Brandi has her kids the same as Eddie and those are HER kids. Brandi is past Eddie she is come to far to take a step backwards. She is on the move
Those 2 are so far from happy.
That’s ridiculous. The boys are actually Brandi’s family, so why should she step back? Also, people who are happy, never feel the need to prove that they are. LeLe and Ed’s campaign to convince everyone, makes it look like they are the opposite of happy. If their relationship was so solid and awesome, neither would care what anyone else thought, but the obviously do, which is weird.
Brandi should take a step back from her own kids? You can’t be serious. And she has taken a huge step away, not mentioning them in over a year. She has ignored the show about bashing her, the record about bashing her, the fans with F Brandi shirts that Leann introduced to Brandi’s kids, and the interviews bashing her. She hasn’t said a thing about the fact that Eddie says he is turning down work offered to him. If Eddie and Leann have moved on, they wouldn’t be promoting a show dedicated to insulting Brandi, that uses her kids in the promos, and doing interviews that focus on Brandi and the kids. Good Lord.
@Jenny12–
Listen: On national TV she stated that Eddie was the love of her life, that she was willing to stay in a bad marriage and that he was a 9 out of 10 in bed. HER WORDS. THAT is NOT someone willing to be alone, let go and work on themselves. And Eddie has been re-married for how long now? This is the same man that recently stated on TV that he did not love Brandi. It is time overdue to let go. BTW, revenge equates to not letting go.
She has also made comments about everyone being coupled up RHOBH and she not having anyone. Well then, why be on the show? Again, things you do not say when you are comfortable being alone. When she owns up to her part in the demise of her marriage, she will be free to move on. Until then,… move over Aniston, you have a new bunk-mate.
Well, I can’t say anything about that because I don’t watch the show (or any TV). Maybe he was the love of her life, but I think she’s been letting go. It’s not like she has a choice. She may not like being alone, but it’s still not a measure of her worth, or ANY woman’s worth. I think she’s on the show because what were her choices? Models have shelf lives, and she’s in her 40s, which means her opportunities are and were limited. She’s not educated (this should be a lesson to everyone to go to college). This probably presented itself as the best (and one of the only, frankly) choice(s). But I don’t think she’s bent on revenge; that, I think, belongs to Eddie and Leann, who can’t believe their behavior has led to the public dislike of them. She seems, to me at least, that she was stuck in a pattern of thinking that she is slowly coming out of. She has said she has a therapist, which I think is positive and a good move.
Just so you know I am not on Twitter so I have not seen the tweets or followed LeAnn and Eddie’s pics or comments re Brandi. I am simply not interested. I appreciate you telling me about LeAnne’s behavior.
You seem to have a lot more sense than she does, but clearly, Brandi has self -esteem issues. Eddie made a fool out of her over and over again. However, just because you are going through hell or a rough patch does not excuse you to start trouble in other people’s marriages, instigate confusion between estranged sisters, let out well-hidden, time-bomb family secrets of other families, help turn an entire cast against a favorite housewife, ridicule a pretty Hispanic housewife’s culture because your ex is Hispanic, etc. Brandi is in a spot called ‘misery loves company.’ Everything she does is aimed at testing OTHER PEOPLE’s relationships to see how strong or solid they are. You are supposed to add to a relationship not take away. She has helped no one. It’s as if she is questioning “why is their relationship/marriage still intact when my mine ended, what makes their relationship so special?”
You said Brandi is seeing a therapist. About time. More of her fans should encourage her to disengage permanently…. for her sake.
LeAnne and Eddie- They are willfully married. I also see that they own up to the cheating- as in sorry that we hurt you but NOT sorry for cheating. Fans want Eddie to be nice and respectful to Brandi, even though he had developed a longtime, 10 year-plus successful pattern of being sneaky and deceitful towards her. Bad habits are hard to break. Brandi’s cringe-worthy character traits would grate on anyone’s nerves. Still, he should work harder at making peace with the mother of his children, even if he hates her which is what I suspect. (Hopefully, his mood will change over time.) Yes, LeAnne should shut it when it comes to Eddie’s ex-wife, even though it is obvious Eddie fuels her with anything derogatory about his ex. Plus, I sense that she does not like being called uglier (fatter, skankier, tackier, etc.) than Brandi and stars do have huge egos.
Lastly, I do think any woman should define themselves by how they treat others and what they contribute to society. How you feel changes through time. Who you are with changes through time. What you bring to the table and what you accomplish stays with you.
I believe people should define themselves by their work and their humanity, definitely. Unfortunately, Brandi does not have an kind of education or background that allows for doing very much. Hopefully, she really is going back to school, as she said. I peek at Twitter, but I’m not on it. I think the therapist comment came from her book, which I took from the library. I don’t feel like I can challenge you on her behavior on the show because I don’t watch it, but I have heard that she messed up a lot last year and is trying to do better. Hopefully, this is true. I don’t agree with people insulting others’ looks, be it Brandi or Leann. Eddie is really handsome, and so what? He is not a good person. Many thanks for the intelligent debate- hopefully we will speak on other threads, and not just this one. 🙂
@aaa-
I was only aware of some of the things you mentioned about Brandi. (Inviting Dean to a show??? Could she be any more obvious???)
How these fans align themselves with Brandi’s very public trashy behavior. All is forgiven because Brandi is STILL ALONE… what a shocker!!!
Miss Pretty was left poor and destitute by the hunk that is Eddie to a lesser woman who is famous and has money. Quick, let’s support everything Brandi and help her become rich!!! Yeah, that’ll show Eddie…
Let Brandi continue to be transparent and spiral out of control for the world to see. How many times have we seen this idiot cry for putting her foot in her mouth??? How many times did we see castmates make excuses for her ratchet antics?? How many times have we seen her apologize for her wreckless behavior?? She likes to dish it out but cannot take it. Furthermore, vanity can get you only so far. Without talent, you are going to have to hustle hard.
I didn’t know a woman being alone was a bad thing. And I didn’t know Eddie was a prize. And at least she owns her errors and apologizes for them. But being single isn’t some horrible disease. And before anyone assumes, no, I’m not single, but I didn’t spend my life praying for relationships and thinking I was lesser than if I wasn’t in one.
Leann and Eddie both have trashy behavior that is why they are not liked. Brandi life is not based on a Reality show like Eddie and Leann. We saw theirs deeds played out before Brandi had a show. If Leann thinks Eddie will change she is more delusional then I thought.Eddie has a pattern of jumping from woman to woman. Leann IS NOT his great love but a convenience. At least with Brandi he worked and supported her. Even Oprah’s man has a successful career and he works and they have no kids. If Leann was not so foolish I could feel sorry for her because all the men in her life she used money to get them. Keegan now Eddie. Dean is he only one. that seem to care for her and she dumped him for a man that has looks but no substance o respect for women.
@Jenny12
We are not talking about you, we are talking about Brandi.
Well it’s a good thing that Eddie has a wife with lots of cash, because he’s not talented and he obviously has no plans of hustling, unless it’s to his next vacation spot. LeAnn’s shown a pattern of “keeping” men, as well as their friends and even their relatives. It’s probably pretty heady at first, but you can’t buy love for the long term like that. She must not think much of herself to let herself be used like that.. Or she thinks making everyone financially dependent on her gives her the upper hand. Either way, it’s unhealthy and sad.
@ Betty,
Wouldn’t it be better for you to PAY ATTENTION to the choices that people make and their behavior?
You believe Eddie married LeAnne for money, even though they have stated repeatedly otherwise. That’s how Brandi feels because she thinks that’s the only redeeming perk about LeAnne. Eddie and LeAnne clearly do not like Brandi and vice versa. Eddie and LeAnne are married, have a life together and that’s that. It’s a done deal.
I would have had a different perspective had I not seen
@ Betty,
Eddie is a man that does what you allow him to do.
You believe Eddie married LeAnne for money, even though they have stated repeatedly otherwise. That’s how Brandi feels because she thinks that’s the only redeeming perk about LeAnne. Eddie and LeAnne clearly do not like Brandi and vice versa. Eddie and LeAnne are married, have a life together and that’s that. It’s a done deal. As it stands, they do not have a reason to break up. If they break up later, then they break up. Both will be fine either way.
Reality TV fake?? Those tears were not fake. How many fights did Brandi get into, only later to apologize for her behavior … and then do something else equally stupid later on? Anytime Brandi felt slighted or cornered, she became childish and nasty. It is not a coincidence that FOUR HUSBANDS outside of EDDIE have chastised her or flat out insulted her to her face on national TV. Other times she was simply running her mouth about other people’s problems.
I know you were not discussing me, but the usual response to someone saying a woman doesn’t need a guy to be relevant is, “Oh, you’re single, you wish you had a guy.” I don’t believe that ANY woman’s worth stems from whether or not she’s in a relationship. You keep saying Brandi is alone, but so what? Better to be in a relationship with a cheater? Forget that, why is being in a relationship a measure of worth? I am just saying, yes, I’m married, but why does that mean I’m worth more than a single person? Surely no one thinks my worth is elevated because I am in a relationship. It’s nice to be married, I love my guy, but he has nothing to do with my self worth…. As for reality TV, it’s largely scripted. I know people who were like, “Duck Dynasty is awesome!” and it’s like, you can’t possibly think it’s real. Or The Hills. Or any of the Housewives shows. Even Leann’s reality show is scripted for the most part. And they edit the crap out of reality shows. It’s PRODUCERS’ realities you’re seeing: i.e. ratings.
I haven’t watched their crappy scripted show, but I’m sick of seeing promotions for it. LeAnn’s face looks awful from all the works she’s had done. Eddie looks like the old, worn out has been he is. These two, with all their scripted Brandi bashing, make Brandi look like a saint. If their promos are any indication of what the show is like, they are defeating their purpose.
I’ve got to be honest and say that I broke down and watched the third instalment of the show and what I saw, was Eddie Cibrian being really insulting and mean to his wife. He was awful. I actually felt bad for her. No wonder she’s so insecure in this marriage. He didn’t come across as joking and if he was, his sense of humour is really off and nasty. If he’s so willing to talk to her like that on a show that’s supposed to expose their real relationship, I’d bet he’s even meaner to her in private. Like major mind games and emotional manipulation mean. I did get an idea of what binds them, other than their fixation on his ex and his love of spending her money. Both live in the past and talk like their long ago success, is still relevant today, even though both peaked almost twenty years ago. They both live with the delusion that they are bigger deals than they are and in his case, ever were.
Eddie has proved he is a user and loser. If a man disrespects the woman who gave birth to his kids and cared for his mother when she was living with them while battling cancer.he has no respect for any woman. He proved he is a man with no character. I am glad to see Brandi and Scheana moving forward. Brandi in her career and new projects and Scheana in her new marriage. While those clowns are making fools of themselves trying to prove how happy they are and trying to say relevant.
Yes and exposing the fact that he is, in fact, using her for her money, all while he talks to her like she’s garbage. Sometimes I wonder if he’s actually with her to get revenge for her outing his cheating, It wouldn’t shock me.
Eddie likes to control and manipulate and Leann likes to breathe the same air he does, so I agree with that. I don’t care if you hate the other parent of your kids, you don’t say it. You say, we once loved each other and you came out of it, so I’m so glad we were together, even though it didn’t work out, or something like that. Eddie doesn’t care how his kids are affected.
@Jenny12-
Love allows you to look past a person’s flaws andmistakes and love them anyway.
The truth is the kids love both parents, even though both parents don’t behave very well. That is really how kids are – they love their parents because they love their parents unconditionally. Parents do not have to be perfect to receive love from their kids.
Josephina, no parent is perfect, but you just don’t say that you never loved the other parent. I’m sure they adore both parents, but it’s already a horrible situation, and you don’t say what works best for you- you say what works best for the children. If Eddie loathes Brandi, fine, but the boys don’t need to hear it. They need to know they were conceived in love.
@Jenny12-
Eddie did not say he did not love Brandi to his kids, btw.
I do get that you are saying that they will eventually find out. I am saying that they are going to be fine.
Both Eddie and Brandi love their children and will do /say whatever to make their kids feel secure and happy.
Breakups can be a bummer for kids, but if it happened early enough they will get used to having two families- one with their Mom and the other with their Dad.
From what I’ve read, he *did* say that to the kids. I think you’re right- they will be okay and are loved- but it’s unfair to have their personal lives played out so publicly and to be subject to the negativity between the 3 adults. They are the ones who the most affected. I agree kids are very adaptable, but I don’t think these kids received the support they should have. They should not have been subject to Leann’s and Eddie’s inappropriate behavior nor- as much as I like Brandi- should they have to see pictures of her in the state she was once photographed in. I feel that Brandi is trying to work on herself and do better. I like that she always says her sons love Leann and that Eddie is a good dad.
You have got to be kidding me? Why do people take pictures of themselves non stop and put it out there ? WTHell?
When did Maria, Nicole, Katie, Uma, and Nicole keep out of the public eye? You have used this line before when your name was Vesper, only the examples you used were different. The last time you used Denise Richards, John Edward’s wife, and the woman whose husband had the mistress from Argentina.
Marie Shriver was the one who exposed her husband’s lovechild and then she did exclusive interviews shortly afterwards.
Nicole did exclusive interviews about her divorce from Tom whenever she was doing promotions for a movie.
Katie talked about her divorce around the time she was promoting her big project and was on the cover of a magazine.
Nicole Murphy appears on the Vh1 reality show Hollywood Exes and many of the scenes have the women talking about their marriages. When Eddie Murphy fathered a child with Mel B and refused to pay child support or even visit with the child, Nicole Murphy didn’t side with Eddie and was very public in her support of Mel B. She would be papped having lunch with Mel B and the baby.
Also, these women didn’t have to deal with a Leann Rimes. Leann constantly tweets to people who harass Brandi and copies everything Brandi does. Leann tweets about Brandi’s kids and brags about how she won Brandi’s ex-friends. Every time Leann has something to promote, the Brandi hates come out in droves from nowhere. Like the past 2 days. The Brandi haters have been very active. Why? Leann is releasing her dance album tomorrow. Leann and Eddie are using Brandi’s book titles for the titles of their show. Leann and Eddie are not the victims. Brandi could be a lot meaner and nastier to Leann and Eddie than what we are seeing, but she isn’t. Leann invited one of her fans who harasses Brandi to New York and she and Eddie took photos with that fan at the Wendy Williams show. That fan posted a video of Wendy trashing Brandi during her after show. Then we are told that Leann takes the high road and it’s Brandi who causes the feuds. Eddie says that it’s Brandi who causes the feuds, but then he takes a photo with a man who photo shops photos of Brandi holding d**dos . Leann and Eddie have been baiting Brandi every week and you say that Brandi is the one who needs to move on and shut up?
?????…. Who the hell is Vesper?
By all means, encourage Brandi to publish more books about her ex, fight tit for tat re anything the new wife does, especially if it has anything to do with the kids. If Eddie says another thing derogatory about Brandi, boycott his movies!!! And everytime LeAnne says or does something inappropriate or WEARS something inappropriate, ridicule her and let her have it!!
Call her out, today, tomorrow and … even 10 years from now. In fact, continue the twitter wars!!! Everytime LeAnne copies anything about Brandi, put it in the blog and tweet about it. Let the world know that she is stalking LeAnne.
Hope these top notch counter attacks serve you well…
Brandi does not have in me to stalk Leann or anyone. She is busy writing books on her podcast and taking care of her kids. Leann has lots of free time because she is always tweeting , Who cares what Leann or Eddie says about Brandi it isn’t rainng on her parade. While they were dissing Brandi she was trending on Yahoo pushing her latest venture. Brandi books were not about Eddie he has a chapter and also and thank you .If Leann and had fans her album would have been a best seller and their show would not have bomb. You can say all the things about Brandi but it won’t gain Leann and Eddie fans . Since you are a Leann& Eddie fan try getting them more fans because everything they have attempted has failed so far. If they were liked their show would have had a decent showing. The ratings are slipping every week. Too bad they didn;t base it on something other then themselves. Because they are not interesting or have interesting lives.
But her books weren’t about her ex. He was mentioned, as was LeAnn, but they were less of a focus in the books, than Brandi is in their show. For two people who love to claim that Beandi is only relevant because of them, they must hate that they have also become dependent on her to be relevant. It must really suck.
