Here are some photos of LeAnn Rimes and Edie Cibrian last night in LA. They attended a gala benefit for Cedars-Sinai’s Women’s Guild. The event was hosted by Will Arnett and LeAnn performed. I have to say, I don’t hate how she looks here. Her styling is really good, especially considering how she usually styles herself. My one little quibble is that the dress isn’t very flattering in the mid-section and you can tell that LeAnn is worried about what she’s showing off in certain angles. The dress looks like a clingy silk jersey, which can be unforgiving if you have any “bulges” anywhere. Still, overall this is a good look for her. Better than leather bootie shorts and tight ponytails.
I don’t really follow the more tabloidy, blind-item-driven gossip about LeAnn, but I do occasionally check in with Celebrity Dirty Laundry to see what they’re writing about LeAnn. LeAnn has called them out before during some late-night tweeting-and-deleting and CDL has an interesting new story about LeAnn. Apparently, LeAnn and Eddie recently flew to Taiwan for just one concert performance (in an arena which had a capacity of 15,000, only 4,000 people came). Upon their return, Eddie allegedly packed his bags and he’s staying somewhere else now? Who knows. But! Just Say Jenn did unearth this absolutely awful video of LeAnn attempting to cover Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” in Taiwan:
PS… I’m adding bonus Gerard Butler, because he was at the event too.

Eh…..that wrap-style is so fug to me. Don’t like the shoes and she’s too matchy-matchy for my taste. Still, I’ve seen her look worse I guess…..
Butler lost the hot so long ago.
Hiya Kitten! 😀
When I see Butler, I only think of std’s and porta potties. It will never leave my mind!
I really think they should call their show “The Squints”.
Hey…where’s your gravatar? 🙁
How about the Pats/Panthers game? Boo.
Hmmm….IDK!
What a bummer!
SO, take away the bad calls and they are actually 9 and 1!
Exactly, ZZZ! Ridic!
The dress isn’t flattering (more suited for an hourglass body type with a more defined waist). But for her – yeah, it’s better than her choices of late.
Wonder if Butler and Ed exchanged crude pleasantries? Imagine a conversation between those two.
I think maybe in a different fabric it’d be better. I like the color. Hate the shoes.
Butler isn’t as hot as he used to be…but he looks presentable here.
@Erinn, she always has the bad shoe choices. Chronic shoe offender. Sometimes her outfits are OK but her shoes are almost always horrible.
Can’t stand wrap dresses, period. Those have got to be some of the clunkiest, ugliest shoes ever.
Amen on the shoes. Wrap dresses are OK, and this one’s not bad, but those shoes!!
I think those are the shoes that Brandi tweeted about (she wanted them)… Then the next time LeAnn was pap’d she was wearing them.
i really loved this dress on Kim K and Jennifer Hudson.
It requires curves for sure.
I thought Kim looked heinous in this dress. LeAnn looks slightly better than heinous.
I don’t care for the dress
But it’s not too short or tight so it’s better than usual
Didn’t Jennifer Hudson just wear something similar not too long ago? If my memory serves and that is who it was, then Jennifer rocked it much better. Or was it Kardashian
I think it looks better on people with a more defined natural waist line
Fifty shades of neigh.
Ok I’m sure my coworkers think I’m insane because I’m screech laughing at this. Also I think that dress is made for a woman who is six feet tall.
lol…soooo funny!!!!
he he too funny ! wasn’t kim seen wearing something simiiar
She and Jennifer Hudson both. I think she’s trying to hard to have it be low cut – just doesn’t seem like it fits her. I do like her hair like this though, so I’ll give her that.
Yes, isn’t this the very same dress that Kim Kartrashian and Jennifer Hudson wore? How lame. I am laughing at that “neigh” comment. Every time I see She-Man with her very hot philandering man I always get a little queasy feeling in my stomach because it rinds me of how I was years ago with my very hot, smart and athletic jerk of a boyfriend. I had no self-esteem and it took a few years to get over him but thank god I learned my lesson and have been the better for it. Now if only this chick would learn some self-respect and kick him to the curb.
Bravo…you win.
After the “fifty shades of neigh” I’ve got nothing.
*bows to Brin*
+1
I just laughed aloud sooooo hard at this!!!!!
You, madame, have won the internet today.
Brin for the Win! I just inhaled a gulp of Sparking Ice and am choking at my desk.
Careful!
Thanks y’all!
LOL!!! Very clever 😉
Sorry, I know this sounds very catty I apologize in advance. But seriously, never mind the dress, what is up with her face?
LOL!!! Very clever! ; )
Sorry to sound catty, and I apologize in advance, but what is up with her face?? I couldn’t get past that to even notice anything else.
Truthfully, I didn’t need to look. I think Grinchy Grimes has negative zero style anyway.
Sorry for the double post, not sure why that happened.
sometimes I spend too much time trying to figure out what she did to her face to make it look this bad .
Priceless! Hysterical! LMAO!
I had to tell myself to stop . Her face doesn’t make sense .
It is flattering. On another note, I think it maybe time to leave these two alone. Tragedy is too imminent, I sense….
I agree.. I have a feeling something tragic is coming their way. Please leave these two alone y’all
I agree, I think it is flattering on her and it’s a beautiful dress. Wouldn’t complain if that dress was hanging in my closet. She actually looks really good here.
The worst thing that could ever happen to them, in their minds, is if the world were to leave them alone. The only reason they stay in this sham of a marriage is for the attention. I think if they were left alone they would go to any extreme to get attention and THEN the tragic scenario might play out.
Agreed.
How is Kaiser supposed to do that when both these idiots call the paps for their every trip to the dry cleaners?? If they wanted to be left alone, they could be. Simple.
Since these two tried to torment a woman after destroying her life and attempting to co-opt her kids, there’s no sympathy to be had. Karma’s a nasty ride that these two have had coming for a long time. Her dress and shoes aren’t bad- shades of the better team JustSayJenn said she got?- but they don’t flatter her.
I was wondering that too – this outfit is very different than anything she’s ever worn before. Must be the new team.
It’s mind boggling why she continues to “keep up appearances” when she knows her marriage is over. And Eddiot is such a useless piece of sh*t. Funny how he disappears for a few days on her but conveniently shows up for the photo-ops. I just can’t with him today.
littlestar: They have a reality project that depends on their remaining married. Once that has been completed, they can split and everyone can blame the reality show for causing the split.
Yes, I keep forgetting about their reality show. I wonder if we’ll ever get to see it…
I don’t think that dress is working for her at all. Not a good color for her. Too long. Strange fit to the bust. Plus, she’s not standing very tall or confidently – looks like she’s hiding behind her clutch. I do agree that she needs to dress in a more age-appropriate style, this isn’t the answer.
She has no waist. This is not how you dress that body type. Ugh. I think she is the worst but seriously. Get a stylist. Just because it looks good one Brandi doesn’t mean it will flatter you. And that’s ok! Just wear what works.
Good lord she gets uglier by the day. Not aging well at all.
I agree. Maybe it’s her styling or her hair but she looks 10 years older.
I thought it was sort of funny that she wasn’t even the headlining act at the gala – there was a ballet billed before her. I wonder if she’s having a problem finding work.
LOL!
She looks OK, for her. My one criticism would be her wonky boobs. So far apart, migrating to pit territory. Eddie is still a squinty, skeevy mess.
I know right…why does one boob go right and one boob go left??? She really should redo them!
To be fair, some people are just built that way – my (completely natural) boobs do the same thing, though not to the same extent. She needs a better bra at the very least. (I know she can afford a better one then I can!)
Holleigh, we know ur not natural, gurl! 😡
I agree.
You could drive a Mack truck down her sternum and not hit either implant.
She has a an incredibly broad chest and shoulder area — so I think that’s why her boobs look so wonky. They have too much room to move around? Her upper body is built for swimming but not for implants.
“migrating to pit territory” LMAO!
She’s gonna need a bigger handbag if she wants to cover her mid-section…
OK, I am staying WELL away from the midsection comment….but this trick is SO classless! How does she justify wearing her ‘F.U.’ ring to an event for Cedars-Sinai? Just a completely tacky bottom feeder….
At least we don’t have to look at her tongue games.
She looks decent. LeAnn can actually sing her ass off, so I don’t know why she’s trying to do Michael Jackson songs or anything like that…she needs to stick to straight up country. Ugh. You know, country music is full of drama and catfights and alcohol abuse and drug abuse and affairs. IF she just had shut up about Eddie and kept her head down and kept working, she could have had a decent career. Instead, she let her need for attention, even horrible attention, overpower it all and when you combine it with the effed up plastic surgery…dunzo. I wish she, Brandi, and Eddie would all go away to some desert island together and never return.
Brandi? Why? All she did was have kids by a sociopath who then married a psychopath and the psychotic duo then tried to destroy her life. Leann and Eddie enjoyed inflicting pain and torment on Brandi and didn’t care how their actions affected the little boys. Now s— is getting real and they’re getting back what they put out there.
Boom! And these two will not have learned a thing nor will they change.
I feel for B, the children and any and ALL future partners they torment.
Jennifer12 I so agree with your comments.
Amen, Jen12!
Isnt that kim k’s dress?!
I was about to say exactly the same thing. Kim K definitely wore this about a month ago. I think it’s DKNY.
http://www.celebitchy.com/328647/kim_kardashian_in_a_skin-tight_grey_dress_at_dash_opening_unflattering_or_hot/
And Jennifer Hudson — looked much better on Jennifer than either of these two.
Eddie always looks like he’s stifling a burp.
I think he is trying not to throw up.
I don’t know how he hasn’t already, I know I would have.
Sorry can’t get past her face.I don’t think she is attractive at all.
In that video, she looks drunk or drugged, or both…
I know, right?? All the itching, hair flipping, and staring at the words on the paper on the floor really skeeved me out.
Is it normal for performers to SIT through entire songs? I don’t go to concerts, so maybe this is how it’s done, but I think I’d be seriously pissed if I paid money to see someone perform and this is what they produced.
On the dress issue, it’s certainly not the worst things she’s worn. I generally love wrap dresses and they are usually flattering to any body type, but I think the length/color are wrong for her. Also, since we’re snarking, she should be wearing some kind of foundational garment to smooth out those, er, lines.
No its not normal but she does it constantly. She thinks it makes the show feel more “homey” when she goes barefoot and sits on the floor. Then she surrounds herself with pages of the lyrics from her own freaking songs.
i thought so too. her behavior was reminiscent of idol performance and she had defiantly been drinking. i always get a manic vibe from her- not buzz-y manic, just kind of wired wrong manic- it really is apparent when shes not acting like a head case that she is, in fact, a head case. (does that make sense?)
Total sense for the head case that is LeAnn. Most assuredly she sucks the oxygen out of a room with her hyper manic ways.
She looks quite good. Is that Gerald Butler at the event?
Did y’all see Brandi’s tweet about her publicist wanting to send her to Florida to take a much needed break? Rehab would do the girl good.
Uh, yeah. Right. Seen the video of Leann twitching and forgetting the words to the song she bragged about killing?
too much squint.
Doesn’t Kim have this dress too?
Her shoulders and waistline are too masculine for this style of dress. It doesn’t help her breasts either, which seem to be heading in opposite directions. She got one thing almost right though, I love the show of togetherness, this she is a pro at.
She seems to be wearing some kinda weird low v-front bra. I think that is adding to the weird shape of the bust line. She needs to wear a full, tea length skirt with a nipped waist belt for emphasis. But that would probably be too classy.
I think it absolutely suits her! Looks really good IMO. But didn’t Jennifer Hudson wear the exact same dress in a yesterday post on this website?
Still better than when Kim K oooozed out of it
The Billie Jean attempt reminds me of the Carly performance last year.
It was so bad I only made it to the .41 mark because it was both sad and tragic.
She looks like an evil cat!!
Haha she does. Her face is scary but when she smiles or laughs she looks hideous.
They look related. The dress is horrible, her figure deserves better.
I had a dirty dream last night about Gerard Butler. I have no idea why, he gives me the willies.
Cuz that’s his goal in life… Givin’ every girl he comes across the Willie. 😉
hahahahahahahaaaaaaa!
I had a dirty dream last night too, only mine involved Agent Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D.
This is totally the same dress Kim Kardashian wore not too long ago. Right?
http://www.celebitchy.com/328647/kim_kardashian_in_a_skin-tight_grey_dress_at_dash_opening_unflattering_or_hot/
Why on earth this song?
OMG! Did she try to hump Gerard Butler since he was there? Seeing as how she insists on trying to be Brandi.
Those heels say “Summer sandal” to me. Aren’t those the ones she swf’d from Brandi? To me, Leann will never get it right. She has no taste. In clothing, or men. She also needs to wear a foundation garment with padded hips like Angelina Jolie if she is going to wear clingy dresses. Just my two cents
Good point about humping Butler, Hank II.
HankII you stole my post- I was thinking the exact thing! Squinty prob tried to get Butlered to copy Brandi!
I think Gerry is looking hot here, he can take me wherever he wants!
At least it’s event appropriate. From the side poses it looks good. The front not so much. But it’s a nice dress.
Wonder if Gerard and eddie compared Brandi notes. Awkward.
She has such ugly claws for feet. Those toes should be reined in with something strong. Ugh.
I think that´s the dress Kim K wore when she first started showing off her weight loss. Its sad when something looks better on a kardashian…
She’s wearing the old school heels and earrings that she SWF’d from Brandi wayyyy back in the day. She looks sad, and he looks uncomfortable. If that blind is true and she tweeted about decorating the tree w/Eddie with Christmas music and pasta and wine etc etc all while he’s not even home with her…then I’m officially worried about where this whole situation may end. It’s getting sad and pathetic and a little scary, which it’s been from the beginning, guess it’s just feeling a little too real now to snark on too much.
EC IS UP OUTTA THERE???
why is no one commenting about that lil tidbit??
the dress is cute but its not for Lee, as usual..
I need to find out more about Eddie being free to skank around if true…
Wondering about that myself. Somebody mentioned this to jsj on twitter, who replied she is on it. Waiting for her I suppose.
Um I don’t see her wedding ring…..
It no longer exists. During a fight with Eddie, she punched a wall and smashed it.
I think I have to take personal responsibility for the video of LeAnn’s performance being that I commented the day before that LeAnn and Eddie weren’t even in China. Who travels 28 hours round trip with a band and entourage to give a single performance for less than 4,000 people?
Anyway, JSJ indicated that when they returned, Eddie went to stay with his parents. JSJ posted this info at 5:00am with the excitement of a girl who’d just lost her virginity (I wasn’t very excited when….well you know). My point is that JSJ is getting real-time info that has to be either from LeAnn, Eddie, or her business manager Kiki. Each has their own purpose.
(@brin-so funny!!!!)
I thought the trip was really weird. It’s an excessive amount of travel time for one small concert. I’d have thought they’d at least stay a few days to sight see.
Especially for a concert for “allegedly” 4000 people with a seating capacity of 15000??! hehehe! What a joke!!
Hi Rita…interesting, I would vote Eddie because I can’t imagine Leann being the source.
Has to be because allegedly kiki is out.
update a girl, i was way late to this party- who is kiki?
Personal assistant, babysitter, sanity companion – any or all of the above. Seriously, she’s a petite gal that is in some of the pap photos when superstar has traveled this year.
But didnt JSJ post the info that he had moved out, so why the heck would he go with her to this event if this is true? I honestly think she is getting wrong info now. THey are obviously still together.
I think they posted that he was out after they got back? Or the PR team was trying to get him to stay while they were over there for the show? I can’t remember.
I read that the tickets were $115-$175. I don’t know if that is true, but her cut from that level of ticket sales, even if only 4,000 people showed up is considerably higher than anything she’s received cumulatively for the entire year on her Lawnchair ‘tours’. Since all expenses were probably covered for her and her band and entourage, it would have been worth the journey.
Promoters always post outrageous ticket price to see if they can sucker a few. Often her public prices are $100 but just before the show people are buying front row seats for $20. I wonder if the foreign audience knew that. In any case, I’m sure LeAnn received a flat fee for this event without any take from the gate. Fix fee performances are safe from a big loss.
Rita: Asia and Far East pay big money to American stars to advertise or entertain them. They don’t necessarily know or care about the scandals the stars are embroiled in.
As soon as i heard she was singing in Taiwan, i thought smart girl. Smart because even if those ticket prices are exaggerated, she’ll earn more from that one night than she has done in a year of risible tours in America and Europe. That’s why all these stars go to the far East.
She has a very expensive husband to keep so big money has to come in from somewhere.
I know ticket prices to a charity gala/concert she is doing in a few weeks are $115 – $175 and people were commenting that nobody would pay that much to see LeAnn – but that price isn’t just for LeAnn, it’s for the “gala/fundraiser”… And just curious, do stars still get paid when they’re doing a fundraiser? Or do they donate their services?
I see she at least tried to dress appropriately for this event unlike her husband’s premiere. I wonder if she did that as a way to get everyone talking about her at his event, and the only event he’s had in awhile. Also, still no wedding ring.
Could be a way to convince him they get attention together – as a team.
Seems like the ring disappeared around the time the production company was announced. Maybe a lost ring rumor is preferable to letting people think they may have sold it. Just a thought.
I bet $10 that a divorce/separation announcement will come somewhere in between Christmas and Jan. 2nd.
I tend to agree with you on the timing. I’m wondering if her special event coming up that brought her to tears is the New Year’s Eve celebration in NY with Ryan Seacrest? Then EC splits as the countdown ends!
that dress looked best on jennifer hudson. Leanns wonky opposite magnet boobs and apple shape do nothing for it. Her face is looking tweeked to the max. girlfriend you need to STOP with the fillers/botox/whatever it is.
Eddie Rimes is not out yet. We all want to believe it, but he’s wearing his ring and attending events with her. He’s a dang psycho so who knows his game, but he’s still with her. And he’s gross.
My guess is she pays him a set amount per appearance with her. I wonder how many dollars he earned by dressing up as Kenny Rodgers and getting his photo taken with her. Man, Ediot is such a tool.
The timing has to be just right and he has to “play along” till then. But I definitely feel it coming!
Seems you are right. But this confuses me, because that means jsj was wrong in this particular blind item… which makes me think how right she was on the other blind items. Time will tell.
No, Jsj is probably right that he is not in the house but he still has to show up for pap pics occasionally. Gotta keep the image of a haaappppeee marraige for now. But the end is coming!
I hear you. But I’d love some direct proof, but that’s just me.
@Jessiebes–I know Sometimes I feel the same way. Especially when I see pap pics of them out and about. But it will happen, I just feel it this time. It’s been a loooooonnng time coming but soon! I really think EC has finally grown some gonads and chest hair! Think positive!
I do not understand why some people put so much faith into the blinds. Would not faze me if some were marking crosses on the calender til Cibsplit. The fan fiction novella, for me that crossed into weird territory.
He allegedly disappeared on “boys’ trips” during his previous marriage. Going to parents’ house may be code for a few days of escape.
I don’t see him leaving for good just yet. He’ll probably collect some nice Christmas gifts and then he’ll keep playing her until he gets a solid exit — which probably won’t happen anytime soon.
Yeah, these people saying he’s leaving in the next few months are dreaming and dreaming for believing all of JSJ’s blinds. She might have gotten a few right and that’s about it. He and Brandi aren’t on great terms, no mending bridges. He dissed her on national TV. If he was leaving any time soon, he wouldn’t have done that, and he would have just played it cool, that he and LeAnn are fine, and not carry on on the one interview that LeAnn wants a little girl so badly. He wouldn’t even mention it if he was just acting the dutiful husband but one foot out the door, going to be gone in a couple of months.
He’s going no where for the forseeable future, and they will just slog on. Sorry to burst the bubble of those filled with excitement thinking the pink wig moment and breakup is imminent.
Ediot looks stiff as a board. More posing for their scripted reality show? LeAnn’s dress looks like something she found in a garbage dump. Does she have a stylist? If she does the stylist hates LeAnn for getting her in that frumpy dress.
Kate Beckinsale wore this dress as well in red and rocked it the hardest. It can be a very pretty, flattering dress for the right person. I think if Leann had gotten this in a deep green or other jewel tone it would have been very pretty on her.
Even though Kate Beckinsale styles herself the same every time, i love her style. it works for her and she always looks fabulous.
Same dress worn by Kartrashian last month. Doesn’t look good on anyone…http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2510380/LeAnn-Rimes-dons-SAME-figure-hugging-dress-worn-Kim-Kardashian-AND-Jennifer-Hudson.html
Hilarious body language between these two love birds. 🙁
Not even the most beautiful dress in the world can help the fug of her face
I do not know what makes her so attractive to people, but honestly — there is nothing special there
The dress is nice and event appropriate, but it does not flatter her shape, or lack there of and the colour doesn’t suit her. The shoes are fug as well. Although I find her face distracting, because of it’s metamorphosis over the last few years, I have to say that she does look much more polished than usual. Her hair looks better too. She is usually wearing something that looks thrown together from her closet of Brandi inspired separates and they never suit her. This is a swing and a miss, but much better than usual. The fact that she bragged about how much she ‘rocked’ Billie Jean, when anyone listening to it can hear and see that the opposite was true, shows how deluded she is and how she’s not rooted in reality. Why can’t she stick to what she’s good at?
I just can’t get past those completely and utterly hideous shoes.
These two are trying too hard to look ‘happy’. So pathetic!
I may be late in the game…but does anyone else think that they look alike?? kinda crazy no??!!
that´s a dress only a stick thin woman (or someone with excellent spanx) can wear. Every other woman looks unshapely.
I like the dress! It isn’t perfect-looking, but I’ll bet it’s comfy as heck.
I think the dress is pretty nice–better than 90% of her fashion choices, anyway. For once, she’s not working the hoochie-mama look she has favored since getting with Eddie. Her hair looks better, too. But those shoes! Omg, they look so clunky and Munster-ish! Overall, I agree with Kaiser on this.
…as for Butler, jaysus, he usually looks so totaled and unwashed, I guess I always just imagined he might start looking good again if he would just take a shower and buy a suit, but omg he looks like SUCH a yumpty-dump here! Any sex appeal he once had is clearly SO over.
Hated the dress on Kim K, but I hated it less on Jennifer Hudson. Third time’s not the charm; it looks especially unflattering on Leann Rimes.
Leann,
I know you read this so listen up, woman. I am shock, sickened and appalled that you ruined a legendary song from Michael Jackson. Woman, listen to this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXQW2vdtHBE
This is how it’s done, girl. Don’t mess up with a song you have no right singing!!!! This cover is a hundred times better than yours will ever be.
Enough said.
My sweetie (but he doesn’t know it) did a great rendition too.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLnNL_Jn7Yk
Her eyes look puffy from the crying & Eddie looks miserable. Just say jens was right all along. Splitsville for them.
Ediot and Falcor look miserable. Compared to their glowing pics years ago….it appears the rumors are true. Her outfit is hideous. I’ve noticed he never looks at her anymore oh my my how that must burn! Guess it’s all come to pass. Time to pay the piper “Homewrecker” as you’ve so delighted in being called Miss MeAnn.
Oh and I love the F U ring on Margaret. Keep it classy gurrrllll!!!!!! Not.
I like the dress but the shoes need to go! She looks much better than usual. Her clothes seem to actually fit. Soooo glad she has seemed to ditch “the bun”, it was AWFUL and made her look old and mean.
Ediot’s butt is gross!! And he’s cheesy!!
She is an upside down triangle. She needs to focus on creating the illusion of hips and a smaller waist. And pushing her boobs together. I don’t think they’ve seen each other in years.
LeAnn hasn’t sung this song since she’s been with Eddie. It’ on her 2007 album. It’s time to add it back in, LeAnn. It’s more your truth these days, loving somene bad for you, than your “truth” album about your soulmate. Also, try to get this face back while you’re at it and probably the best and classiest and most figure flattering she’s ever dressed for an event or performance.
Live: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdxlP1jKAWQ
Wow. Ediot really did a number on her, didn’t he?
its just cause the boobs, are strapped the wrong way….they’re climbing up (the stairs, it looks.. 😉
Interesting when you look at their foot placement. A psychologist friend that did a PhD in body language displays once told me that the feet tell a lot about what people are doing in their relationships. Eddie is “Walking away” from LeAnn in this photo, whilst LeAnn seems to be ready to chase him. Interesting. Mind you, could be just coincidence.
Isn’t that the same dumpy ass dress Kim K tried wearing recently… it’s fuggg on either b*tch!
THis relationship is OVER! She’s been crying and her entire head is swollen from drinking and crying. He looks like he has checked out of this relationship longgggg ago. KARMA is the only baby she will be having!
