Remember when LeAnn Rimes was anorexic? I mean…. anorexic-looking? Allegedly? Well apparently, LeAnn was NEVER anorexic, but instead lost all that weight because she was under immense pressure surrounding her personal life.

“People said I was [anorexic], but I didn’t have a problem with eating, as I ate a ton all the time — I could eat my husband under the table!” she tells the U.K. publication. “But I was going through a time when I just wasn’t sleeping — my mind wouldn’t shut off and my heart was breaking.”

That heartbreak was a result of her very public affair two years earlier with now-husband Eddie Cibrian. As first revealed by Us Weekly, Rimes, 30, and Cibrian, 39, met on the set of Northern Lights in 2009 when both were still married to other people — she to dancer Dean Sheremet, he to future Real Housewife Brandi Glanville. They fell in love and eventually tied the knot, but the last few years have not been easy.

Rimes describes the period after their affair as a “turbulent” one. “To say I’ve been on several roller coasters is an understatement,” she admits to the Daily Mail.

These days, though, she’s in a much healthier place, both emotionally and physically. At least part of that is attributable to her decision last August to enter a 30-day rehab program for “anxiety and stress” issues. The other part, she says, is thanks to the support she gets from Cibrian. NEW BIKINI PIC AFTER THE JUMP – CONTINUE READING! (more…)

We’ll file this one under: OF COURSE THEY ARE.

LeAnn Rimes, 30, and her husband, Eddie Cibrian, 39, are out hunting for their own TV show.

The married couple of two years, “have been shopping around a scripted comedy based on their lives together,” a source tells US Weekly. “They would play versions of themselves, kind of like on Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

The series will even draw inspiration from their ongoing, real-life drama with Cibrian’s former spouse (and Rimes’ rival), Brandi Glanville, 40. Explains the insider, “The show will have a crazy ex-wife!”

Not appearing on camera? Cibrian and Glanville’s two sons, Mason, 9, and Jake, 6, who Cibrian famously forbade from taping episodes of their mom’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

“Mason and Jake are not involved,” the source says. “If kids end up being on it, they would be played by actors — not Eddie’s children.”

After several pitch meetings with TV executives, the fictional series is inching closer to reality. “They’ve met with a few networks,” adds a second insider. “Nothing is finalized yet, but they’re seeing where the show could go.”

How desperate can they be? Almost as desperate as posing in your bikini for paparazzi pics? (See those pics after the jump!) (more…)

This chaosfest never ends between LeAnn Rimes and Brandi Glanville. Respect for each other? Respect for children and parental roles? NO WAY and NO THANK YOU!

Rimes just recently told British magazine Fabulous of what Glanville’s sons Jake, 5, and Mason, 9, call her.

“Sometimes they’ll blurt out: ‘Mom!’, but I just go with whatever they call me. As long as it’s nice and respectful, I couldn’t care less.”

Ouch.  Does she REALLY need to say this stuff publicly?

“They have been very accepting,” she continued of her stepsons. “It’s taken a while to feel like it’s not just Eddie and the two boys and then me. But I do feel that’s happening, and the love that I have for them is tremendous.”

That’s nice, but STILL. Can’t we stop this dumb feud? Is Eddie Cibrian just as crazy as these two ladies, letting them fight so publicly? Thoughts? And read more of LeAnn’s interview HERE.

Do you think that LeAnn Rimes calls the paparazzi and lets them know where she is and what she’s doing? Seems like every time the girl puts on a bikini, she’s swarmed by paparazzi. She likes to act annoyed with the paps, but I’m guessing she actually quite gets off on it. She tweeted photos of herself on vacation, and then tweets “I guess I’ll go for an ocean dip at midnight cause there are at least 30 paparazzi and @kikicaldas has disowned me.” Hmm/

Anyway, these photos were taken in Miami, where LeAnn is vacationing. According to sources, LeAnn is taking a mini vacation (without her husband and his kids) before she begins touring for her new album.

And back to the bikini photos. Dare I say she’s looking better? She got WAY too skinny there for a while, but she actually looks pretty healthy in these pictures!

Want proof that LeAnn was eating up being photographed? Check out pics of her working her body – after the jump (NSFWish)! (more…)

In more ridiculous news, LeAnn Rimes needs to do her laundry, like for REAL.

She decided (or I’m hoping all her pants, dresses and skirts were dirty. Still clinging to that laundry theory) to wear very tiny, black vinyl shorts to her stepson Jake‘s baseball game on Saturday.  How old is Jake? 5. How old is Mason, Eddie Cibrian‘s older son? 9.

Are these shorts appropriate? YOU be the judge.

Brandi Glanville SAYS she wants to end the longtime, petty feud with LeAnn Rimes and her ex, Eddie Cibrian. Before that happens, however, Glanville wants to have a couple WORDS, of course!

The Real Houswives of Beverly Hills star wants to let the country singer boundaries are important for a mother and stepmother, and that she should GET SOME.  Says Glanville, via PerezHilton:

“I really want to put this public war with LeAnn and Eddie behind me, and I want to communicate with them privately if they’ll have me. I think we both need to step away from it now. After the book and everything. Put it behind us and move on. Hopefully, they’ll have a child of their own and she’ll understand better what a proper boundary is for a stepmother and a mother.”

Unfortunately, there is already speculation that Rimes (who is just as obnoxiously dramatic) is already pregnant. So maybe she’ll “learn her lesson” sooner than the Drinking and Tweeting and other Brandi Blunders author thinks (yeah, pot calling the kettle black, am I right)?

I am SO ready for this feud to be over.

LeAnn Rimes is in London, and has been enjoying the sites!

The 30-year-old singer was spotted today leaving ITV Studios in London, England, with her husband Eddie Cibrian. The singer has been tweeting away while on her vacation.

“10 1/2 hrs later we are in London! I feel like I’m in the Love Actually movie here at Heathrow.”

“Just waking up in London. Big does this time difference mess me up a bit. Looking forward to @loosewomen & a photo shoot w/ @Fabulousmag,” LeAnn  posted yesterday before her appearance.
