I’m covering Mariah Carey and LeAnn Rimes’ Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting performances separately, because there were separate issues that need to be discussed – go here to read about Mariah. First, let me say something nice about LeAnn Rimes’ performance of “I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas”: her voice sounded pretty decent. Better than Mariah’s voice. Now, everything bad: LeAnn was trying way too hard to be a sexy Christmas singer. It’s network television! It’s a wholesome Christmas tree lighting event! Children are watching! All of that should mean “leave your garter belt at home.” Here’s her performance:
Full disclosure: I couldn’t even finish watching it. I stopped at about 90 seconds. Sigh…I can’t with LeAnn. I guess this was probably her goal in releasing her sad little Christmas EP. She wanted to get some higher profile gigs for Christmas, and since Mariah Carey can’t sing all the Christmas songs, NBC threw LeAnn a bone. I hope it doesn’t happen again.
What else? Let’s see… LeAnn was tweeting and Instagramming like crazy yesterday, because she just can’t help herself. Eddie had to follow her around too. I wonder if she played up some phantom injury? LeAnn also has a new interview – go here to read. There’s nothing major in there, she says she likes candles and she’s been very organized with her Christmas presents this year. She basically says that her marriage to Eddie is the best Christmas present ever, saying: “It puts so much perspective into what a gift that (relationship) is and I get to have it every day. I know it sounds cheesy, but it’s true.” Blah.

Bitchy comment of the day: You know those are the faces that Leann gives when she and Eddie are doing their ‘smexy’ times….*shudder*
You mean when Eddie is actually in the room right?
Room…house…zip code…same thing.
Only if LeAnn has a rolex taped to her head.
lolololol
+1
Zing!!
You win!
I’ll be chortling for days!
From the looks of what’s going on via her tweets, a pink wig would be a good early Christmas present.
Poor Eddie. The past 12 hours may have ruined today’s shopping spree plans.
I’ve seen several photos of Eddie from last night. It’s obvious he was very festive with a little help from tequila.
Eddie has two modes: looking completely disinterested or looking wasted for her We’re So Happy! photos.
Eddie can have the slut, they are PEREFECT for each other. Maybe porn in their future?
Leakann put the ho in Ho Ho Ho, totally trashy and inappropriate as usual. She looks like the Joker here, too. Truly the nightmare before Chistmas.
WTF is going on with that outfit? Is that lingerie and thigh-high stockings?
Gah! So gross.
I cant tell you how many times I’ve watched a cute performance of a child themed holiday song and thought to myself, “You know what this needs? A slutty burlesque number.” The leather really completes the ensemble. And for the love of Baby Jesus, what is trying to fight it’s way out of her belly? Is she “with foal?”
The fact that her song choice for this striptease was inspired by her young stepson is deeply disturbing…
So right Pegasus! I was thinking the same. I think that about 13 is the limit for singing “I want a hippopotamus for Christmas”, it is a seriously childish number and needs the innocence of a child to make it work. Who needs a 30 something adulteress in her favourite S & M outfit to sully this song?
Song is soo weird, but LeeAnn’s voice is amazing
All you could make out was the word Hippo, she needs new teeth and a vocal coach. I think it’s too late for her, too many young real stars have pushed this crusty out the door. I would never support a venue that books her.
Ya`ll can say what u wish about her antics and ways but she has a bomb ass voice. Best voicein the industry hands down. But this song sucks…couldn’t even get to the part where i could see her garter belt. The song sucked so much i became more interested in what she was wearing, but then got to bored to see the big reveal. Fail. No one wants a hippopotamus for xmas. Don’t blame u though if u wanted to eat like one.
Ho and the joker smile are what I thought of right away looking at the ridiculous picture
I want – bump grind – a hippopotamus – remove a glove – for Christmas. Only a – twirl glove – hippopotamus will do – throw glove into audience, bump grind.
“Sing louder Louise!” May be she has Rita Hayworth mixed up with gypsy rose lee.
I think she’s been watching Showgirls again.
Matter of fact, i think she should have stuck to the original plan and sang, ” i want Eddie’s baby for Christmas” . Totally more believable. Plus the outfit goes better with that chorus.
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas performed as Roxy Hart from Chicago?
And I swear she’s about to blow that mic. Maybe she thinks hippopotamus in the song is a code word for giant bulging c@ck?
*blinking in confusion and bewilderment*
Maybe her sad holiday tour will involve her dry humping Rudolph onstage?
She knows how to work a mic, lots of practice of being married to Ediot maybe. 🙂
Guess she had some time off from “stealing Christmas” to warble some awful song about wanting a Hippopotamus for Christmas.
God, she stinks and so does her outfit.
Omg–what a ridiculous performance, and the Hippo song is just too stupid. And can I add that taking off a black trench coat looks completely inappropriate on top of everything else, then add the try-too-hard sexy moves that look completely out of place. The song isn’t even appealing or enjoyable. Since when do you link hippos with garter belts and stockings? Okay, that was one embarrassing act. It’s too bad, because LeAnn has a really good voice and she could do something way more interesting with it, but people are going to remember this unfortunate performance and wonder, “What was she thinking?”
Stupid song. I couldn’t watch the whole thing. She looks too much like The Grinch.
GNAT ditto. I even tried. Who thought this would work?
The original version of this song is much cuter sounding, however, it does get annoying pretty fast.
She looks like she was dressed to sing “Santa Baby” or “Baby it’s Cold Outside” or some “naughty” Christmas song…..
Of course she has to make a catty comment in the interview about how other country artists have “gone pop.” I’d rather “sell records”.
She knows how to make friends, eh? Reading quotes like she gave in that interview helps explain why she can’t make any gains in country music anymore.
Didn’t she kind of go pop as well? Well, she was more of a crossover artist I guess? And on the selling records bit, well, good luck with that.
Her only success, besides being a novelty act with Blue, came from her crossover into pop. Country abandoned her long ago. She has a lot of nerve bashing other singers in every interview. She’s just a bitter hag.
Her biggest success was the scandal she created when she bedded another man’s husband, leaked the photos, stalked the ex wife and hurt Dean. She more infamous than famous.
Yeah, she complained that the country radio stations weren’t playing her songs because she had gone pop. Yet she did go pop and now is critical of country for going pop??? What a hypocrite!!
She released a whole album of pop songs called Twisted Angel right around the time that Faith Hill had massive crossover success, around 2000.
I’m sure she’d rather sell records…too bad she’s not.
Beat me to it!!
They interviewed that twit? Thank God, I changed the channel.
If that is what she said, she is so full of s@%t. She would love to have a successful music career again and it is so obvious that she is envious of those other singers who went “Pop.” Ha, ha.
Then she must be very disappointed because she hasn’t sold squat in over a decade.
Country music wants nothing to do with her and if any artist works with her, they put their reputation in question. I wouldn’t touch that dirt for anything.
I watched the entire show and could not believe how she chose to deliver a children’s song. It wasn’t just the stripping down to a pointy bustier and garter. The looks of audience members spoke volumes.
It’s hard to believe that the network chose her to take Mariah’s spot. I am not buying that. There were several other performers, and I think she may have assumed SHE might be the one. Counting chickens before they hatch and all that.
They didn’t, according to the TMZ TV show, Mariah was three hours late because she was on the phone with her divorce lawyers. NBS was reportedly annoyed with Carey for the delay and gave the additional camera time to the Grinch because they were afraid she would ruin the festivities.
The best part of watching that segment on TMZ was hearing one of the girls screech on camera, “Ewww, I don’t want to see more of LeAnn Rimes. They should have just waited for Mariah.” LOL!!!
The first part of her statement echos the feelings of many about SkeezAnn.
Oops, sorry I meant NBC, not NBS. 🙂
Is she trying to get a gig at or possibly compete with the Victoria’s Secret Show?! That’s what it looks like to me. “Screw Ariana Grande or Taylor Swift, look at me!” And that last photo frightens me. It makes her look almost like a blow up doll.
Victoria Secrets models are beautiful, we don’t need to see horse faces there. imo
You forgot to emphathize how Leann was basically pushed aside to sing not as much because of Mariah. Leann was boasting on twitter but had to retract because plans changed and the real star, Mariah, was available again.
Exactly! Mariah probably caught wind of LeAnn’ s shenanigans and said” oh no this bitch is not taking my spotlight! “. Which is why LeAnn needs to shut up.
She always jumps the shart and looks like a fool.
Brin, I am not sure if that was an intentional typo, but OMG, I have been DYING laughing at it
Is hippopotamus an euphemism for something else? The grinch that perverted christmas.
Too funny!
I know, lol. Gross.
There has never been anything sexy about LeAnn Rimes EVAH.
WTF?!?! Seriously, this is a family show.
And it’s outdoors in December. I mean, with a summer show one could at least justify a tank top & daisy dukes, but sporting skivvies for an outdoor winter event …
So I watched her on the Today Show yesterday and I watched that Country Christmas show. I thought she sounded good on both. She didn’t even seem like that much of an a**. Now I see she was just waiting for a larger audience to show her true colors.
She at least seemed sober when I saw her on the today show lol
Her voice did sound decent, but her outfit was beyond inappropriate for a Christmas show, and trying to make that song sexy is creepy as hell. It’s a children’s song for crying out loud, and she’s running around letting her jacket slide off her shoulders while making sexy squints with her eyes and then revealing a corset and thigh highs, something is very wrong with this woman. Then to top it all off she gets on twitter talking about the “riots” in NYC and made an even bigger fool of herself, she had no clue what she was talking about then blamed it on other people for reporting it to her, she’s an embarrassment.
She claims that we’re all stupid for not seeing her outfit as being historical and an homage to Rita Hayworth. She’s completely delusional.
After all, Rita was known to sing a children’s song to a family oriented audience wearing lingerie. Wasn’t that the famous scene in Gilda?
Oh wait…
@Christin LOL. She’s so stupid and deluded.Rita Hayworth oozed sex appeal. LeAnn just oozes.
Oh LeAnn. Rita never needed bells and whistles to be sexy. All she ever had to do is simply walk into a room.
LOL Deanne.
Rita Hayworth is rolling over in her grave.
I saw that on twitter. I can’t believe she had the nerve to complain about the “riots” and yet not a peep about the miscarriage of justice that had been committed. I truly think she is mentally ill.
Everything is about her. No exceptions.
I live in NYC. What riots? Just protests.
She needs to hum, can’t understand anything she sings, need to give it up. What the he!! is wrong with her parents? We know Eddie makes her to crappy gigs, as he doesn’t work, but having her around kids would be very scary.
This socially unaware woman doesn’t get what is appropriate. Is she so broke, she can’t afford to hire a PR person? I’m guessing she feels insecure about her sexuality. Why else would she sexualize a children’s Christmas song? If she weren’t so mean spirited, I would feel sorry for her.
LeAnn had numerous PR people but she chose to ignore all recommendations on how to handle her career. What can you tell a person that know Everything.
No PR firm wants to be associated with her if they want to keep good clients.
The hell?!?!? She really just tried to sex up a song about a kid who is asking Santa for a hippo?
During a family show, no less. Lord, she is really out there.
LOL! I can’t stand her, I mean really I can’t
she still trying to get to Brandi too..
Leann just tweeted to @CafeSmom that she likes her “stepmom” version of Let It Snow…
Oh, stepfamily life can be so frightful,
But my dreams were so delightful,
Since I realized I have little control,
I’ll let it go, let it go, let it go.
The drama doesn’t show signs of stopping,
The holiday schedule has us hopping;
Won’t let it make me feel down low,
I’ll let it go, let it go, let it go.
When we finally get it right,
How I’ll hate the brewing of an emotional storm;
So to my marriage and faith, I’ll hold tight,
And in my heart and home I’ll feel warm.
I’m doing a lot less crying
Yet, the ex’s lies are not going good-bye-ing,
But as long as my husband validates me so
I’ll let it go, let it go, let it go.
Damn, that is epically catty. Who’s really try to start a shitstorm here? Squinty McDrama, naturally.
Oh but she never engages right?! This is how she gets in those jabs without actually being the one to do it. Such a shame, and Brandi has said nice things about her lately but LeAnn just can’t stop herself from creating drama, sad for those boys to have such a horrible step mother.
Don’t be silly. She never sees the haters. Plus she would never engage.
LeAnn in her latest battle of” I know you are but what am I.”
The shoes LeAnn wore last night were previously posted in Brandi’s possession. Pictures were posted on Twitter (showing they were identical) and SWF-ing claims asserted again…Don’t know what’s true and what’s not, but LeAnn is just too batsh*t crazy NOT to be stalking Brandi and her shoes. 🙂
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… ARRESTED ADOLESCENT. She really ought to be ashamed of herself, but her over-the-top narcissism prevents it, ergo, she will *never* learn to stop this kind of garbage , for her own good. Nope. Not happening. Ever.
What’s with all this fuss? She’s clearly letting it go…
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again:
HER STUPIDITY ATE HER SHAME FOREVER AGO.
Written from a 2 year old, would you expect her to have a brain and shut up. It’s time someone steps in, maybe a court to see what she does. It costs money to go to court, but I would rent a shack before this bioatch was around my kids.
Any venue that books her, needs to be aware that she is not working with a full deck. My sister saw here, 30 bucks included a free room and buffet. They walked out after one song, said she screamed when singing, had on dirty clothes, her hair was a mess, and she had marbles in her mouth. Casino gigs is a older group, they walk around and drink and play slots, walk into a music performance and leave when they want. No sit down tables to enjoy a show, it’s a free for all show.
Nothing says Christmas like a jingle tits routine, done while singing a children’s song at a family event.
I have to say she sounded quite good and her version of the song was fun. I thought she looked really classy in the trench. And then the coat came off, my mouth dropped and then the damn song went on forever. It was way way too much for that kind of program. Garter belt and Madonna bustier for a tree lighting? She was so close to gaining some points but failed, yet again.
LeAnn was so excited. Mariah pretapes her song and after showing up three hours late for the pretaping, the network told her to forget it and go home. So Mariah didn’t get to pretape her vocals.
They were going to give LeAnn another song. LeAnn was tweeting excitedly everything had changed. Then Mariah’s people convinced them to keep Mariah on and that she would just come during the show and sing it live. LeAnn’s back out and back to one song. She had to retweet plans had changed again.
Omg I was so embarrassed for her. This was a family show and kids were watching and she looked like a damn hooker. Nothing classy looking about Leann. You know people were talking about her performance. On another note – why would you want a hippopotamus for Christmas when you have a deadbeat jackass of a husband at home?
She had to find a way to get us all talking about her performance. She couldn’t have done it worse way. But we’ll all remember. She must be a little chilly prancing around in lingerie!
This was a trainwreck in so many ways.
First of all, it’s hilarious that she spent 3 days of rehearsals with a choreographer for THAT. Second, WTF. It’s a children’s song Leann. Enough with your demented obsession with trying to be sexy – so often involving kids! (that cake, the attire at the soccer games…it’s never-ending)
And then the topper: complaining about the Ferguson protests in NYC and arguing with people about it!
Wait, there’s more, she made a homophobic dig at Andy Cohen, so there’s that too. Idiot is on a roll.
This woman needs to go away. Just go away, Leann. Your comeback is never gonna happen.
Calling the protests, riots and saying they spread “negativity” really shows her complete and utter stupidity and narcissism. Waah! People protesting injustice and racial prejudice are ruining my burlesque show for the children.
Ahaha well said!
She is an uneducated and ignorant fool, what else is there to say?
That stupid remark she made about Andy wanting to wear her thigh highs, like all gay men want to dress like women. Where are the No H8 people? She’s so snide, just like that moronic poem she likes about the ex starting drama. Everything that has happened to this woman is well deserved and Eddie is married to this embarrassment. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
Leann has a good voice and it’s so sad she chooses all that nonsense over being a truly great singer and performer.
And seriously … what the F was she wearing?
As I was watching this last night all I could think was what in fresh hell is she singing about???? That song was awful. The only saving grace was that he voice actually sounded good. Don’t get me started on the outfit, though
She was in good voice, not crazy about the song. What an odd choice of clothing. Getting to sing at the tree lighting is big for LeAnn at this point, so it’s regrettable she chose to push herself as “sexy” instead of being appropriate to the plain vanilla occasion
Coat Pr0n! I love her coat! Too bad she didn’t keep it on.
All her hyper-sessay displays are for Ediot. Sad, really.
Of course she would choose a song that is tantamount to a child’s verbal expression of a tantrum.
Leann was a complete mess all of yesterday and is still a mess this morning. Her soulmate is on tour with her, you would have thought that she would be busy spending more time with him and less time tweeting from her and Kiki’s twitter account.
Tuesday night, after she said she was going to bed and having wine with her soulmate, Leann got on twitter to gloat about how she was going to do 3 songs instead of 2 at the New York tree lighting. Miriah and NBC were having problems and Leann took it upon herself to let everyone know about it. When NBC and Miriah worked out their differences, Leann got back on twitter yesterday morning to complain about how NBC bumped her back to 3 songs. She was very bitter about it. She then spent hours and hours arguing with people and saying that people were twisting things. How?
After her performance was over, Leann got back on twitter, probably to spend her night retweeting the positive comments, only to find out that there were no positive comments because both her singing(no one thought her voice sounded good, so camp Leann is flooding blogs with positive comments right now) and the hooker outfit she wore were being slammed. She spent hours and hours arguing with people, telling them that they need a history lesson because she wasn’t channeling Madonna she was trying to channel Rita Hayworh and the 1940s.
In an attempt to divert attention away from her bad performance and get sympathy, Leann tweeted that there was rioting in New York. There was no rioting in New York. There were peaceful protests, some people were arrested, but there was no damage or vandalism. When people told her that there was no rioting, Leann kept tweeting that people didn’t know how bad things were because they weren’t there. When people who were at the protests spoke up, Leann pointed the finger to someone else. She said that she tweeted that there were riots going on because that is what someone at the Rockefeller Center told her. Why would someone say that when the press were doing live updates? Leann was tweeting all day, if she had stopped posting selfies, she would have know that there were no riots. She continued to argue with people saying that what was going on was sad, but if it was so sad why was she more concerned about posting selfies of her and her soulmate in the dressing room?
Andy Cohen, who Leann has been tweeting to since the day she filmed the CMA Christmas special, said something negative about Leann last night. Leann lost it. Her first tweet of the morning was of her slamming Andy. Leann says she advocates for LGBT, but the moment any gay man criticizes her, she insults them by saying that they are jealous of her because they want to wear her clothes. That was very inappropriate. What does NoH8 and Friends Movement think of Leann when she says things like this?
This morning, she is still saying that she tweeted that there were riots because that is what she was told. Someone pointed out that Leann was tweeting all day long, why couldn’t she have looked it up for herself? Some are speculating that Leann was just upset because she felt the protests were getting in the way of her staged photo-ops and making it hard for her “bring your own paps” to get access to the center. Maybe she used the “riots” as a reason to leave the Rockfeller Center early since she was getting slammed.
I finally figured out why Leann’s face looks so odd. Eddie’s girlfriend must be pregnant because Leann is trying to create the “pregnancy glow” using make-up. Since Leann has been tweeting about drinking wine every day, I don’t think she is pregnant. She really wants everyone to think she is. She has been wearing baggy clothing and last night she put on a fake bump. Leann wasn’t pregnant last month because she was riding ATVs and shoeing horses.
Leann has been on Amazon and Itunes downloading her album all night long. Her album was in the 200s on Amazon, now it’s in the 100s. Why does she make it so obvious that she is downloading her album? You can always tell it’s her because the movement on the charts happens when she is having one of her tweetfests, which she did this morning.
There was a peaceful protest where I am in NYC. No rioting at all.
exactly. Peaceful and very justified protests.
Leann is insane and horrible. But-and I say this with all good intentions-you need some other hobbies. The elaborate details which you are giving mean you are spending a lot of time researching this and following the whackadoo’s antics.
@HappyMom
Says the person who spends hours and hours telling other posters that they need other hobbies. It’s sad really. If you don’t like that people comment on Leann, then stop coming here to read. You spend way too much time researching people who don’t like Leann just so that you can write posts where you try to police others. Leann must be having a very bad day !
You don’t have to spend hours and hours researching Leann because she keeps a very detailed account of her actions. It’s sorta like when a “neutral” person(someone who says that they hate both Brandi and Leann) keeps changing his or her name to keep telling other posters who don’t like Leann that they are way too involved even though that very same person keeps coming back to see what we are posting about Leann!
What happened, was the name you used earlier to tell me that I am way too involved not working? I know, I know, “You are not a Leann fan and you don’t even like Leann, but…”!
@ why
I just wanted to say I always enjoy your posts and hope you continue to provide us all with your info/insight. You are correct that the info is easy to find. I dont even look that hard, only visit a cpl sites, and I see the same things you do and I can tell you I dont spend a lot of time on it either.
@ Macey
Add to that, you don’t even have to go to other sites. All you have to do is go on Leann’s twitter. The timeline details everything why? posted. EVERYTHING. I go to a couple of sites as well because I enjoy the posters snark and wit on all things Leann and everything they post comes from her twitter. The girl is her own enemy.
I think it’s reasonable to assume that Leann’s album shot up in the charts because she performed on national television, to an audience of millions. I kinda doubt it shot up because Leanne was buying copies of her own album…..
The funniest part (because LeAnn always claims never to engage with haters) was when one tweeted “there’s no rioting, sunshine” (paraphrased), and LeAnn replied immediately “You’re not here, moonshine”. Like Kaiser says, LeAnn can’t help herself. Twitter is her one true love.
@why I love your “Leann crazy” recaps, keep em coming please:)
Also don’t you just love how Leann is going “mainstream crazy”now? For so long it’s been just us who knew- now it’s going to be EVERYONE lol
If I could spend every hour of every work day posting comments online I would. Dodging work is a legitimate hobby. In fact, I would go so far as to say art – high art, especially when you look at Spitfire.
LeAnn is imitating Mariah Carey plain and simple. She opened her big mouth on Twitter telling people that she is replacing Mariah. But the executives rather put up with Mariah s diva behavior than take a chance on LeAnn’s low budget performance.
I think it’s time for Mrs squinty to stop mentioning how grateful she is to have Mr squinty as her husband. Enough. A jacket is meant to be on your shoulders. Cover up your ho ho clothes.
Doesn’t the network have any control over wardrobe?
That red lipstic does her no favors.
Agree. Red lipstick is not for everybody. Brandi’s been wearing bold lip colors lately though, so…
She actually did do a weird SWF about the red lips a while back. Brandi tweeted how she couldn’t always pull off red lips, so a few hours later Leann tweeted a pic of herself in red lips and how she can pull it off. Or something weird like that. She’s majorly cray-cray.
All she needs is a Christmas tree to swing on instead of a strippers pole to complete her look. A hippo to ride instead of the bull at a bar. Who ever let her on stage like that should be ashamed
People stand out in the cold for that?
Kaiser, you made it 45 seconds longer than me. I knew that coat was coming off and I quickly slammed the stop button before my eyes were assaulted as well as my ears.
I watched it last night with my four year old and was horrified. I said to hubby that Leann forgot to put on her clothes. My daughter said “well Mom, it’s a song about Christmas morning. Maybe those are her pajamas?”
Ha!
The best part of that interview was when she admits that Eddie doesn’t buy her gifts, he just leaves her “love letters” on the bathroom mirror and that she is okay with not getting gifts from her soulmate because she had to redefine what a gift was. Leann’s own timeline contradicts what she said in this interview about Eddie leaving her love letters on the bathroom mirror. Based on her tweets at 2 and 5 am, Leann is always up before Eddie gets up, so how is Eddie leaving her love letters on the bathroom mirror? Based on when her tweetfests get worse throughout the day, it sounds like Eddie leaves around 7:30 or 8 pm and doesn’t come back until the next day when it’s time to take Mason and Jake to school. Either Leann lied or Eddie’s “love letters” are really Eddie’s shopping lists.
Leann told Billboard that she was doing the Hippopotamus song for selfish reasons, so no one should be surprised that she took Jake’s favorite song and tried to turn it into a stripper anthem about how she wants Eddie’s “Hippopotamus”. Why do I get the impression that the things Leann thinks is funny or creative are passive aggressive digs at Brandi? Did Brandi dress up in an outfit like that and sing Eddie a Christmas song? It’s like the storyline for her reality show when she used the wine glass for toilet to make fun of the photo on Brandi’s book cover of her holding the wine glass.
The second best part was when she blamed streaming for her poor album sales, even though she was encouraging her fans to use the Spotify streaming site. Leann’s poor albums has nothing to do with streaming, it’s her poor singing, bad behavior, laziness, and twitter addiction. Her sales are so bad that she has to download her album from Itunes and Amazon. You can tell it’s her because when she stops tweeting on her and Kiki’s twitter account and posting photos to instagram, her album drifts back to the high end on the charts.
Why is she still complaining about country going pop, when she has worked with Rob T (pop), Motley C(rock ), and a producer/songwriter who writes music for rap, pop, and hip hop artists? She tells so many lies and the press is afraid to call her on it. She is only complaining about country going pop because it didn’t work out for her.
Maybe she told eddie not to buy her any presents. She buys him and his kids so much stuff. He’d be buying her presents with her money that she probably doesn’t have much more of. When it’s gone they won’t be on vacation every other week. AW love letters! How sweet! She must be so happeeee!
If this trick was getting love letters from the ediot, she would plaster them EVERYWHERE!
Her twitter and facebook feeds would have daily updates of his gag me love letters to her. There is no way in hell she wouldn’t be showing them off. Pictures or it’s not happening.
WHY?……I love your postings and sometimes I dream, hope, pray, pretend, imagine, daydream, cross my fingers with a rabbits foot and a four leaf clove and a horseshoe (no pun) that you are Eddie….
Eddies gotta do something every day while Leanns sending her million tweets
LOL, trickgirl–seconded!
Wouldn’t that be something…
That would be amazing!!
Oh wouldn’t that be the most amazing/awesome/perfect thing to ever happen on the face of the earth? trickgirl you are a genius!
Eddie isn’t that smart.
@Why: You seem to spend lots of time analyzing Leann’s craziness.
LR is a psychiatrist’s dream, could be subject matter for an entire book on narcissism.
I think @why would make a kick-ass detective, private or otherwise.
@Birdie
Hi Queen/Beep. Good for you. You changed your name again to make another post complaining about someone writing about Leann! You added a picture too! You seem to spend lots of time changing your name to analyze anyone who writes negative things about Leann. I’m surprised you came back with a different name considering what happened in the last thread when you were going by the name Queen.
@Why. Now I know you spend too much time analyzing Leann’s craziness, I have this name and pic for quite some time on here, so take a chill pill and get your facts straight. Oh, btw, I can’t stand Leann and my comment towards you wasn’t even meant as a diss.
Have you not been around for long? Why’s diatribes are awesome fun to read, and informative, as well.
Someone should explain to LeAnn that a shopping list does not qualify as a love letter. So all those time leann put pictures of her gifts from Eddie on Twitter is a lie! My world is out of control!
Love letters taped to the bathroom mirror????? I would hazard to guess IF ANYTHING was taped to the mirror, it was a reminder for Leakann to clean the hairs out of the sink when she gets done brushing her hair or a reminder for her to brush her teeth once in a while or take a bath and use deodorant!
@briargal
Or to flush the toilet, as I hear she’s not too competent at that.
Maybe he writes complimentary notes to himself. Or maybe she intercepted one intended for some young thing. He probably has to hide to keep whatever is left of his sanity.
I don’t think I ever realized before how huge her mouth is. She could swallow you in one gulp.
I’m appalled at what she did with a child’s song. I didn’t watch this on TV, but a friend on Facebook posted something about it looking like she was doing a strip tease. And it did. So inappropriate!
She reminded me of a large mouth bass! And I always thought her nostrils were large–but wow–seeing these pics makes me realize her mouth is large too.
And yet her eyes are very small.
Sort of like a python….
Beyond the inappropriate clothing and attempts to sexualize a song aimed at kindergarteners, the fact she was arguing with people who were in NY, about the supposed “riot”, seals it for me that she is a heinous person. People who were saying that they were right there in the protest and that it was peaceful, couldn’t even get her to stop complaining about how “bad” it was. She had the nerve to tell protesters that they didn’t know what they were talking about. She cannot apologize or admit she’s wrong, EVER, She has zero humility and it’s one of the reasons people like to watch her fail.
I live in NYC- no riots. None.
LeAnn has an amazing voice! I don’t agree with her outfit but the song was fun and her vocal delivery was spot on. She needs to tone down the sexy outfits, especially when they aren’t appropriate for the event.
Mariah’s performance made me sad. She used to have an incredible voice but it seems to have disappeared and all she has now is her sexy outfits/persona.
Both ladies are beautiful and talented – they don’t need to resort to cheap tricks like dressy trashy to get attention. Just dress modestly and belt out the songs and people will cheer again 🙂
Based on the tweets from last night, 97% of the people who watched the tree lighting ceremony didn’t think that Leann’s voice was amazing. They thought she sounded horrible. Some even said that they were waiting for the huge cane to appear to pull her off stage. Some people even questioned if her bad singing was because she was drunk. Others were asking why NBC even invited Leann because that talent she once had, is gone. It wasn’t just the outfit that was bad, it was her her entire performance. The negative comments about her singing and her outfit were so numerous that Leann’s name was trending on Yahoo.
I love your comments, Why! I can’t help but be fascinated by this train wreck and you always have the best posts.
Honestly I am very far from a Leann supporter she wasn’t that bad on the Today Show. I was really shocked. I thought if she would stfu and sing normally, not yodeling, or trying to turn a Christmas song into her version of Me So Horny, she would be ok.
I just choked on my coffee at the Me So Horny Xmas joke.
Were the Bonus Kids watching this there or home with their mother. They must have gone blind and gone to bed crying after seeing this. Asking each other, “what was daddy thinking? !”
My 13 yr old son was watching, and he’s at that age where women in skimpy clothing are enticing to look at, but he genuinely recoiled in horror.
She’s gonna melt down in the worst way when the money runs out and Eddie leaves her for his next sugar mama.
Because of her poor enunciation, I usually can’t make out what words she’s singing. I made out about 10 this song, including the title words.
Did anybody notice how she was stroking the mic stand?
I don’t know why she was wearing lingerie to sing an Xmas song on national TV. Weird.
Also, in that photo, Eddie looks like a hostage forced to kiss his captor.
It’s her teeth. I believe this is her third or fourth pair.
I didn’t understand the words she was singing. Trying to be sexy while singing a Christmas song about a hippo do not work.
Her singing is mediocre at best. When she was a ten or whatever year old she was when she became know, it was remarkable. That same voice out of an adult? Not so much.
Can someone please drop a house on her? Anyone have a bucket of water?
LOL! So that’s why she looks as though she never showers. Wouldn’t want to melt!
Draw a pentagram on the floor to banish her back from whence she came. And take Eddie with her.
This woman is so poorly managed that I cannot believe it. Darrell brown is managing her career right into the toilet. Probably ruining his own, too.
Is there no one who can convince her to turn her PR over to real professionals? Kiki is clearly incompetent with publicity, darrell allowed her to perform that horrendous striptease, she’s got nobody!
I believe firmly that there are many unlikable stars who have good images thanks to clever management.
“she’s got nobody!”—-she doesn’t need anybody as she thinks she is perfect just the way she is and can do no wrong. And I cannot believe that associating with this hasbeen is not hurting Darrell’s character! He is becoming as much of a joke as LR is. People are laughing AT him like they laugh AT Leakann. Birds of a feather……
She has had other PR teams, and has defied their edicts which were meant to save her azz. She doesn’t care what they say; she thinks she knows best and this is the disastrous result she produces. Every.Time.
This is true.
She is reminding more of Lindsay Lohan than anyone else right now, career-wise. Trying to reclaim childhood glory. I do not think that she has the self-awareness to realize that she needs help to get her career back in shape.
.
…and dont even get me started on idiot Eddie Pornstache. What a tool. Leann has come to believe that her Instagram world is the way the real world views her. Where is a professional team to step in and set her straight?
Camp Leann is on a big damage control tour right now. They are hitting the blogs in massive numbers. To clean up the comment she made about rioting in New York, she paid two blogs to post that she apologized for the comment. Her fans are hitting the comment section on US Weekly using many different names to say that Leann didn’t do anything wrong. They even use the “I am not a Leann fan, but…” line. Leann said that there was a riot. She knew that there wasn’t a riot, but she needed sympathy and was upset that the protests were preventing her “bring your own paps” from getting access to the center. Rather than admit that she lied, she blamed someone else. She was tweeting all day yesterday, so she knew that there wasn’t any rioting.
To clean up the drunken hooker strip tease they are planting her fans on blogs to write that there wasn’t anything wrong with her outfit and that she sounded perfect.
Leann has been quiet on twitter, but she is still downloading her album. Her album slipped to 189 and now it’s at 173. Leann will probably start tweeting again within an hour because she thinks that the US Weekly article and her fans posting on the article made everything better. This massive clean up wouldn’t be necessary if whoever planned the tree lighting had followed in the foot steps of award shows and not invited Leann to perform.
Hopefully they learned their lesson and won’t invite her back next year!!!! About time venues woke up to this immoral talentless little has-been of a twit!
Apparently one or two paid fans (Kiki?) is/are working gratis here as well.
Oh hell I just said I am not a Leann but……I was actually talking about her Today Show performance. I think I will just shut up
Its not Miley or Kardashin so whats the problem..lol.. They all have been on family viewing and the jury is still out on Brandi’s move for xmas excitement.. Leanna can still belt a song when she wants to and accousticaly at that.. Not many do these days
Did you watch the Christmas special on Monday night with Jennifer Nettles? There were several singers on the show who were in fact better than LR. Carrie, Sara, Jennifer and even Idina were belting out songs that people could understand and they have stronger/better voices than LeakAnn. Even singers on talent shows have a voice equal to or even better than LR!
And what does “Brandi’s move for xmas excitement” have to do with this thread???? There always has to be a But Brandi…. comment, huh?
Because this is Anon/aaa.
aaa is more professorial in tone. Actually, doesn’t Leann overdo the lols as well?
I wonder if Eddie got to meet MC—I think it would be great if he hooked up with her. She has way more money and talent than Leakann. Yeah she is a little bit cray but not near as much as LR. He could sit on his fat rump for years and years with Mariah—just a thought!
I hope he reads or hears about this and moves on to greener pastures. Sans current old mare.
I can’t help but find this woman fascinating – only for all the wrong reasons. We know she reads what is written about her obsessively and yet never ever ever does she do anything to genuinely prove the negative comments wrong. Literally everything she does is the exact opposite of what people say she needs to do. I would love to be in her head (for a VERY short period) because for the life of me I can’t understand her logic or reasoning.
This is how I feel about her behavior. I actually thought that maybe she would make something out of this appearance. When she started hinting that she might have more time on air, I thought “ruh roh, here she goes”. Counting her chickens before they hatch, and sure enough, nothing came of it because they kept Mariah.
The song, the outfit, the tweets afterwards — Just two words:
Opportunity. Wasted.
Did she do something to her lips? Why does it look painful to open her mouth? I also don’t understand why she dressed like Elvira on a Christmas show!
Leann makes me wish there was a special jail just for annoying people. Like if you reach a certain level of offensiveness, obnoxiousness (is that a word?) and stupidity, they just lock you up. Call it Horrible People Jail or something.
If there were she would have been locked up long ago.
The Isle of Misfit Toys! Where all the jolly dominatrixes hang out giving free handjobs to Frosty the Snowman!
No, don’t torture the poor sweet misfits. Send her to the cave with Abominable before his teeth come out.
We can do a hostage negotiation: we’ll take the misfits and give them loving homes, in exchange for Abominable and the burlesque grinch with the leaking anus. Everybody wins.
Truthfully, I’d like to send her to an island with that guy from the BasketHead movie. Or maybe the Saw films. She can drag Eddie along- he’s used to torture.
More blogs picked up US Weekly’s article about Leann “apologizing” for her comment about the protests, but the problem is that they are all leaving out the part about Leann trying to incite fear and sympathy by claiming that people were rioting in New York. What a spin they are putting on it. Since Leann has been doing damage control, she hasn’t had time to download her album as much as usually does. Every time it drifts closer to 180, she downloads a few more to keep it in the low 170s. Her album was at 19 on the top Christmas Itunes chart, but it’s at 27 now.
BIZARRE song choice.
Her voice was solid and she was covered up for most of the song. I didn’t think she wss inappropriate. I’m not a fan, bit I’m not gonna trash her performane or her outfit.
Good lord..even hookers are like, “Way too slutty for a family event, yo”.
That first pic instantly reminded me of the vampires in Fright Night.
I watched this performance last night and was literally thinking, “I can’t wait to post about how inappropriate and sh-tty this is on Celebitchy tomorrow!” No lie.
I really think she has talent and could be so much more attractive if she learned that less is more. Have a little class.
Wasn’t “angelfish” used to describe LeAnn once? More appropriate word would be “Blowfish” from the looks of those open mouth expressions of hers. My eyeballs need holy water now.
Why are we not talking about the lipstick that was smeared all over Leann’s face by her microphone the last thirty seconds of the performance LOL!?
I watched the show last night, and when Leann started singing the hippo song I sat with my mouth agape in horror. I could not believe what I was seeing. She just made such a fool out of herself in front of millions of people ( once again) . She could of made that a shinning moment in her career if she would of kept the theme dedicated to kids friendly, but once again she wants so bad to be seen as sexy, she just had to make it about her and her lack there-of. Even though I have a great amount of disdain for her, I was embarrassed for her. She is circling the drain and this was a shot of Drano to move things on down. I don’t know who the people are that are managing her, but they should be hanging their heads in shame today. She should never ever be invited to another event with children in attendance. She’s just a “try too hard” and fails. A shame, because she has a decent voice. My opinion of course.
When she started singing the hippo song you mouth was agape in horror? What in the world would cause that the moment she started singing. I had to go watch the performances to see this horrific performance. LOL
The girl was in a coat most of the performance until the very end. People are so overreacting. Gaga and Tony performed and Gaga had a her cleavage wide open and also slit way down. Then there’s Mariah who busts out of her dress as usual with her boobs massively displayed. I don’t think she was any worse than the other two. All three could have toned it down but not anything earthshattering.
People are overreacting to a very ending of the whole song carrying on when she’s covered in a coat most of the time and barely shows anything after, and there’s Gaga with a dress split so wide open and down to her waist. And Mariah is busting out of her gown and skin tight all over. She sounded good and seemed to have fun. I wouldn’t buy her EP because I have no interest in her or that song for Christmas, but think people are a little over the top on this. Nobody is on here clutching their pearls over Gaga’s dress nor Mariah’s massive in your face boobs, I see, so concerned over the family special.
Now her tweets about the “riots” is hysterical and typical LeAnn trying to involve herself in something and making a fool of herself.
Gaga and Tony in Rockefeller

From the ugly telling trench coat, to the bright red lipstick, over animated facial and hand movement (as usual) leading up to the partial disrobing down to a slutty looking Madonna era outfit.. Guess I should of been more specific Jayna. Overall I felt she made a fool out of herself all the way around which included her riot comment. As far as the others. This article is about Leann, but ok. I felt Gaga looked totally inappropriate for the occasion and Mimi.. Well Mimi has always been Mimi. I’ll give her a pass for old time sake. I guess maybe I was expecting Leann to run around the stage with kids and plastic Hippos or something kid friendly. I was just surprised she made it into something sexual, but I should of known she would have to make it about her and not the kids. It’s Leann after all.
This performance made my night considering I was extremely hungover & fighting with my boyfriend. I laughed at the performance & twitter comments for a good hour or so & forgot all about my problems. Thanks leann I knew I could depend on you!
I didn’t watch the show but good god was I laughing my ass off while reading the Twitter comments.
Then I sat shaking my head reading Twitter comments before work this morning. She stuck her damn hoof in her mouth all night long.
I did watch it, and what made her performance and attire stand out even more was seeing how most of the other artists dressed. Most of them wore nice, normal winter clothing. Then you have Gaga and Mariah showing off their chests, but nothing compared to the burlesque-style outfit and performance of this one.
The sad part is that the other performers who acted and dressed NORMALLY barely got mentioned.
Leann’s tv show is airing here in Australia starting in January..and wouldn’t you know it airs the same night as the real housewives.
Here is the wording of the commercial advertising it:
“Housewife Brandi’s husband left her for pop princess Leann Rimes, now they have their own series.”
VH1 isn’t in Australia. We don’t have Bravo, it’s called Arena here.
Brandi is popular amd very well liked here in Oz. She has her own page/weekly segment in NW magazine and she was just here and well revived for the NW mag bday party..they flew her out for her bday as well.
** pop princess?? Hahahahahaha –this laugh carries into next week.
She’s just a complete and utter mess and singing a children’s song while dressed like Madonna just shows that this person has no idea what is appropriate or right. No need to strip off like that and then say it’s in the Christmas spirit. But isn’t this the woman once again taking passive shots at Brandi through her stepmom friends? She’s so damn immature.
Fortunately for me I haven’t had dinner yet. I was warned yet HAD to watch the PERFORMANCE. Kind of like driving by the accident scene slowly looking thru parted fingers as you cover your eyes. Why oh why? A garter? And she SHOOK HER BOOBS!? Betchya the children were impressed with that along with the other men Ed wishes were in his pathetic shoes. Leann #HasBeen Rimes totally ruined my 8 year olds favorite carol .Puke.
Leanns whole life is like the accident scene. I enjoy reading all the stories and comments. I’m so sorry this happened to your kids favorite song. She looks absolutely ridiculous strutting around stage and making those faces. Halloween is over!
Ok, one more comment on this to get it off my mind. I have been muttering about it all day to myself! Ha! (Yes, I have a job. I muttered and worked.)
This is NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, LeAnn. There are national protests happening. The protests were widely publicized, and your team should have known in advance and advised you: “Leann, I think we had better re-think the lingerie and silly song. Perhaps we need to talk with the network and get another, more current-events appropriate song from the EP approved for tonight’s performance.” If you had chosen one of your other songs, and an outfit like you wore at Country Christmas, you might have commanded the night in a positive way. That didn’t happen. Please, hire someone who will do this for you.
I just cannot stand to see such simple mistakes being made.
It makes me bananas.
You know what? People cheat. People get caught. Some people come out smelling like roses, and some people wind up at a major tree lighting dressed like a motel lounge singer, trying to sexualize a children’s song. Look around, Leann. Take stock. You can fix this.
1. Show the public how damn hard you are working at building a good solid relationship with Brandi. EVEN IF YOU CANNOT STAND HER. Show that you can be united for the children. If she can’t follow suit, YOU STILL LOOK GOOD and the kids will benefit by your goodwill. Does the public “deserve” this? NO. WE DON’T. BUT YOU WILL LOOK BETTER AND people will buy your music. Kids win, you win.
Nobody loses. A good lesson, and a hard lesson to learn is that you don’t have to make someone else bad for you to look good. You can do it on your own even if you receive no help. Personally, I think Brandi would respond to this. She loves those kids.
2. Make darn sure that your team keeps you in the loop on current events if you cannot do this yourself. Your current team? They are failing you. BIG TIME. Amateur hour. Are they trying and are you just ignoring them? Stop it and listen.
3. Stop tweeting. Seriously, just stop tweeting. This is not something that you are talented at. Not at all. This is not in your wheel-house, so you need to stop.
4. Darrell is not helping your image. He looks desperate and when the two of you interact, you BOTH look desperate. Your agent/manager/whatever he is is not supposed to be your “bestie” in the eyes of the public. That’s just….low-rent. He needs to be BEHIND you. Quietly supporting.
5. Kiki–Nope, no more snide Brandi comments EVEN IF you CANNOT STAND Brandi. Not one more. You show that you don’t endorse them, Leann, and you shut them down. EVEN IF THEY ARE WARRANTED. Never, nope, no. They reflect poorly on you. Truthfully, I think Kiki just needs to go. You can do better than this, but if you insist on her, please make her be quiet. She does NOT get to comment on you on social media. EVER. Good grief this is publicity 101.
6. Ed. Oh, that Ed. He is going to need to step up here, and say some things that are nice about you. He should have been the first to make a statement or a tweet last night declaring his great respect for your abilities to sing live. (I believe that you did not lip synch and THIS is what you should have highlighted. You’ve got pipes, girl, for goodness sake, make it about the pipes.) Ed looks…..emasculated. Wimpy, powerless and weak. This is not a good look. Fix it. If he won’t stand up for you, you need to be asking why.
7. No more kids in tweets or instagram, or…anywhere. EVEN IF BRANDI DOES IT. You have over-saturated and need to break. I just saw photos of an A list Celebrity’s children and marveled at the fact that we don’t see them plastered everywhere and anywhere at all times. Only every now and again, on rare occasions. Impressive! As a step mom (and yes I am one) You really do need to learn how public opinion works on this subject, right or wrong. You can’t possibly always be the one in the wrong, but somehow you almost always LOOK wrong, because you make simple PR mistakes.
If the children appear in photos….they need to be ED’s posts. Sorry, that’s life in public relations crises. Just do it.
8. Sing. Just shut up and sing.
9. You are nice to poor foot girl. I commend you on that. You are genuinely kind to her with your comments. No, you do NOT need to send her a sweatshirt, but you need to wean her off of such regular public communications, though…see point 3 above. Right now, it actually appears as though she is controlling you, like the movie Misery. Again, not a good look.
10. Or don’t do any of this and just do what you want to do. I don’t care, I just needed to say it. Hell, I might as well get a little mileage out of my PR degree.
Lele’s team is Eddiot and Kiki. Did you expect anything else from these two?
Her casino shows need to add a stripper pole in the lounge, the drunks can throw a dollar at her.
I doubt she has much of a team left but she would be wise to listen to your advice.
I often wonder if she gets any good advice, or if she simply refuses to heed it.
She should send you a check for such spot-on advice. The poster whose four year old thought her outfit might be what she wears Christmas morning should qualify for an iPad to help with damage control.
I can’t like this enough!!! You have given her fantastic advice!
I think she needs to get off social media too. Delete all her past Tweets (all 80,000 of them), unfollow her “fans”, and stop responding and replying to people on there. Have someone run her damn Twitter for her and only post occasionally regarding Leann’s WORK and promotional stuff. Same with her Instagram. She needs a professional to monitor that for her.
She also needs to re-evaluate all the leeches and “friends” she has in her life and look at her marriage critically. But she needs a therapist to help her with that and I don’t think that’ll happen unfortunately.
Awesome post! She’ll never listen. She is a narcissist. That’s the frustrating part – it’s all so simple and obvious.
I’d add to the list:
Stop putting out or supporting hateful stepmom stuff. Do not use the word bio-mom.
Stop putting down the country singers who are way more successful than you.
For once, say you hope people enjoy your show, rather than boasting how awesome you are at your concerts and patting yourself on the back endlessly. The show is for them, Leann.
Lastly, drop it with the I’m so sick tweets every time you have to perform. Even if you have a sniffle, you don’t need to spend days on Twitter making it sound like you don’t want to perform for the people who are giving you their hard-earned money. It’s tacky!
There are only two things I could add to all the –1–quit lying–everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie. No wonder people don’t believe anything you say. 2–put heart and soul into every gig you do in the future and maybe you will once again be someone people will actually want to pay to see. You talked about the work ethic your dad supposedly taught you–or was that just another lie?
Molly, that was awesome. I hope LeLe reads this. I bet she does.
This.
And BRAVO! You echo my thoughts exactly and if she has any money left she needs to cut you a check. I too get so *frustrated* whenever I see this girl, I want to shake her until those horse teeth rattle. *SHE JUST DOESN’T GET IT!* It’s so simple and obvious that even random commentators on a celebrity gossip sites can see how to best wipe the bad PR booger from that homely face, yet there it remains. And she does it again and again, ad nauseam. Not to be redundant but you would think Eddie would get that his image is indescribably linked to her (like it or not) and that it’s in his best interest for her to look good. It’s the latter that frustrates me the most. How dumb are these people?
I suspect there is no team because she alienated anyone with good advice long ago by simply ignoring them. Yes, she’s narcissistic but my bet and armchair diagnosis is she’s primarily a borderline personality, specifically for the impulsively and hypochondria. If that’s the case, she owes me some money and it’s likely she’ll keep face planting because she’s too fragile to develop any real insight. (heavy sigh) I have to avoid her. It’s too much like banging my head against a wall but thank you for saying what needed to be said!
Oh KT and Mollie bravo both of you, spot on really! She drives me bonkers too (the mumbling yes ugh I do it too lol) but really she will never listen because truth is she has too many disorders to get over until some serious therapy/self-evaluation and I sadly I don’t that is ever going to happen… oh and “poor foot girl” is one of her sad fans on twitter.
It’s evil but she’s the kind of client every therapist prays will be a no show; especially if you can bill insurance. I think that whenever I see her. I’m sure she pays her psychologist buckets of money but how much $$$ is worth having to listen to her? And then watch her make the same mistakes over and over? I don’t know how to put a price on that. It must be maddening.
I’m sure the war stories swapped between her therapist and others under the guise of “my anonymous client” are priceless. That, I’d be willing pay for.
I have a lurker Twitter account I never use or check and always kick myself for not checking when sh*t with her comes up because she deletes most of what’s great as soon as it hits the media. I’ll have to look up and follow Poor Foot Girl. As we know 99% of these accounts are Leann’s. If you go to other gossip sites look for Elsie w/the little dog avatar. I’m certain it’s her. It’s always on CDL. PRICELESS!
BTW – Who is “Poor foot girl?”
A fan of hers with the twitter name of Crzy4LeAnnRimes. Think her name is Johanna. She is quite a character in her own right. A real dedicated Leann fan and one that can tell you every anniversary date for anything that has ever happened in her 20 something years of living. She cracks me up. Watching Leann on twitter and her fans has become like an online soap opera for me. I need to get out more.. lol
I started following “Foot Girl on FB. Holy sh*tballs. That woman is CRAZY. Thanks for the tip. It’s going to boatloads of fun reading her tweets.
I finally tried to watch and couldn’t make it to the minute mark. But, damn, that was hilarious. The exaggerated gestures, the crazy faces, the attempts to sex it up (she does it on film and still denies it)- seriously the funniest thing ever. Only tourists crowd midtown at Xmas (OMGwindowswindows) so it’s not too likely that anyone thought much of this cornball fest but you could see she felt like a major star again.
When this performance was seen and heard, I can picture all the hippos in the world running as fast as they can away from her. No hippopotamus for Christmas, Leanne.
I listened to this fully expecting to hate it but I didn’t although I couldn’t stand to watch her singing it. I would enjoy it on the radio.
She knew how Mariah would come dressed, so she did the same thing.
But that’s just Mariah. Always slutty.
Leanne is so try hard..
a few of these pics are begging to be photoshopped
My husband and I were watching and he said, “Who’s that?” Haha. I was cringing while I watched, she was trying so hard to be sexy, blech. Totally inappropriate for the venue, I was glad I put the kids to bed before they saw that mess.
I think Leann Rimes is a fascinating case study of someone who is incredibly talented yet unsuccessful because she is so indescribably unlikeable. She hasn’t had a hit in years, doesn’t have a label, her VH1 show tanked and yes, NBC threw her a bone and she blew it. Her voice was great but the performance was inappropriate and overshadowed by her ignorant Twitter posts and ridiculous outfit. I especially loved how she threw the leg out front and center to reveal thigh high. It reeked of desperation, like “HERE I AM! HERE I AM! REMEMBER ME! REMEMBER ME!”
Why no stops this woman from repeatedly face planting in her own sh*t is a mystery to me – especially Eddie, doesn’t he need chicka’s cash? It’s pure schadenfreude but I’d love to see this Christmas mess CD bomb so that Eddie would finally bail. Maybe then she’d vanish once and for all. The only ones who would miss her are Just Jared and the poster Elsie-something with the little dog avatar.
It absolutely is fascinating. She’s got the video of the Hippo performance on her instagram, with hashtags “so proud” and “worked hard”….she never learns.
Defiant and obnoxious. Always the world’s fault because she’s so misunderstood.
I have nearly (not quite completely) reached my saturation point with her bumbling PR moves. I’ve never seen anything like it.
No wonder Leann was such a mess Wednesday and yesterday. The Grammy nominations were this week. They announced them today and Leann wasn’t nominated. Will Darrell be able to get Leann invited to another pre-Grammy event again? Did Darrell make any tweets bragging about how Leann was going to be at the 2015 Grammys, like he did last year when he bragged about how Leann was going to be at 2014 Grammys?
Leann’s Christmas was wavering between 24 and 52 on the top Christmas albums on Itunes, now it’s no where in the top100. On amazon her album was wavering between the 170s-180s, and today it’s at 280. What’s the difference? Leann stopped tweeting at 1:20 pm yesterday and didn’t start up tweeting again today until 3:15 am. Since 3:15 am, she has made 20 tweets and posted 3 photos to instagram.
What would she have been nominated for? Wasn’t Misfire her last CD? I thought that came out in 2013.
I think this idiot does this ridiculous stuff thinking it will be rewarded with all kinds of attention and press for her. She isn’t smart enough to realize that negative attention does not help put dollars in her pocket. Seems like she gets so manic when she is getting ready for a performance that will actually be seen by more than a half full casino room full of people. I bet this trick is obnoxious days before and days after a performance. I have decided Eddie Cibrian must have such a low iq that he doesn’t even know how to get on the internet and google the negative reaction to her and him. The fact that she adores him so much in his current state tells me that she is really deficient in many areas of her brain. It’s just so ludicrous that she acts the way she does. She is a has been. Her days are done. Oh sure, she will get a bone thrown her way every now and then but she is roasted. Hope she can sell enough shirts and meet and greets to her broke fans to keep Ed in the lifestyle he has grown accustomed to.
One has to wonder why he doesn’t jump into a more supportive role, like Dean apparently did during their marriage (when she actually seemed to be halfway normal). If she makes more money, all the better for him (whether they stay together or not).
By a more supportive role, I don’t mean posing for photos and hanging out at the bar. I mean being more attentive to helping her develop a quieter, more professional image (huge job that it would be). She may not listen to anyone now, but somehow Dean helped keep things in check.
