LeAnn Rimes Goes To Rehab


Apparently LeAnn Rimes has issues with stress and anxiety. You know, like when is Eddie Cibrian going to leave her and why does everyone dislike her so much. So, to take care of those issues, LeAnn has decided to go spend 30 days in a treatment facility. I love when people say they are entering rehab just for stress and anxiety. I'm not sure why they are not honest with others or themselves. If she says she is going in for substance abuse or booze does that make her a worse person? When she comes out in a month and has given up drinking, then I guess we will know what was causing all that stress and anxiety. Do they have rehab for people who only take photos in bikinis? What do you think Eddie is going to do with himself all alone for 30 days? I bet LeAnn doesn't make it the whole 30 days.

Um yeah, I bet Eddie has already banged like 6 chicks.

goheels83 said...

And also, how do you need rehab for stress and anxiety when you are on vacation 365 days a year?? Right.

a non a miss said...

Cut her a break- its stressful trying to figure out which bikini will show off her bony physique the best.

janele said...

At least she's not going for "exhaustion" or "dehydration" or whatever the latest celeb excuse is.

Cathy said...

I hope she's getting treatment for that eating disorder!

carolinec said...

adderall is a killer drug out there. or so i hear.

libby said...

Celebitchy posts on LeAnn quite a bit...This could be about drugs (she's always going to the dentist, and supposedly lost all that weight w/Adderall), it could be about how she was recently caught on tape bullying someone over the phone & cursing Brandi....and if Eddie's mad about that, it would be typical LeAnn to suddenly be 'sick'. She also just turned 30--maybe that freaked her out too?

Regardless of the reason, I think most people could tell she's needed some kind of help for a long time.

Yay Enty retweeted me!! I get so giddy when people retweet me, I love acceptance by strangers!

liteNOTSObrite said...

I'm under the assumption that stars go to rehab for "anxiety" and other seemingly nonsensical reasons because that is the only pap-free place they can go. With Leann it seems counter productive since the paps that follow her are usually on her payroll.

Colleen said...

@Rejectedcarebear - hahaha you just made me laugh because I thought the EXACT same thing when I got retweeted once. Hooray for acceptance by strangers! :)

Princess said...

I have a theory that when these things happen, it's usually following something very bad. Maybe she got drunk and hit some random person like a waitress or someone. Then they duck into rehab to help make it go away. Bet she's out in 2 weeks.

pilly said...

HE won't make it 30 days

That's her stress

Roman Holiday said...

Leeann has issues - mental issues!
Are we sure it is not the "institution" and not rehab?

Henriette said...

Anyone who had that bizzaro anniversary/birthday cake made, needs more than 30 days in a mental facility.

Marna P. said...

It's bullshit rehab anyway! She's leaving every weekend to go on her tour and "not disappoint her fans." This is just another desperate plea for attention and her attempt to try to get the public to feel some sympathy for her. Once again, I don't.

goheels83 said...

Ok so here is my long story regarding Adderall:

If Adderall is the reason why Leann is anxious/stressed, then I totally get why she is in rehab. I was on adderall (precribed by my doctor) for 4 years. The first couple of years it was ok, but then I had to start taking more and more to get the same effects. It made me jittery, anxious, and I couldn't sleep, but I liked it because it kept me skinny.

In my opinion, it's basically legal coke. When I was on it, I could drink a 5th of liquor or 2 bottles of wine and barely feel a buzz. The next day, I would feel like I was literally going to die because my heart was in so much pain. After a few times when I actually thought I was going to have a heart attack (at age 28...), something in me finally realized how awful that shit is. I haven't touched the stuff since (about a year) and my life has improved SO MUCH. I now go to the gym every morning and am doing things the "right" way to stay a certain size.

It sucks because you really do get addicted to the stuff and its an endless cycle of popping adderall all day then taking something to bring you down (for me, booze, cigarettes, and Tylenol PM) to try to make you sleep, then waking up and doing it all over again. Horrible on your body.

@go heels
Hi five! I was just talking to somebody yesterday about the rediscovering morning after coming off drugs :)

crila16 said...

Does she have a drinking or drug problem? I've never heard any rumors about that.

surfer said...

Maybe she's going to rehab to help her get over her aversion to clothes (I know, I know, not nice, but...).

Sunny said...

OK - I got my laptop. No more crazy typing :)

I know LR isn't the most sympathetic character, but I do truly hope this helps her. We all can have our self-doubt, but she appear to be living in a constant state of trying to prove how awesome she is, presumably so she won't lose her man. As I've said many times before, I'm no angel with my past history, but if I wound up with a dude I had been cheating with I'd be living in fear every day he'd leave me when someone hotter/richer came along too.

goheels83 said...

@Sunny, thanks! It awesome feeling like the "old" me again. I am so happy every morning when I wake up. It's fantastic.

discoflux said...

RCB, I know exactly what you mean! lol I remember nearly peeing myself when Neil Gaiman tweeted AT me. Like, he actually "spoke" to me! I jumped up and down and then screen capped it and sent it to all my friends who are Neil Gaiman fans.

For anyone keeping track of how big of a nerd I am, add that to the spreadsheet.

a non a miss said...

@disco- I got a comedian (Billy Eichner, super funny) to retweet, reply and favorite a few of my tweets! I was beyond thrilled.

Also- I love to be snarky but if LR has actual issues, I wish her the best.

lolaluvs2snack said...

They got that chick in there trying to get her to eat something!! Its FOOD rehab:-p

carolinec said...

" I bet LeAnn doesn't make it the whole 30 days"

Such a supportive guy you are Enty..

She hasn't found out yet that they'll take away her phone. I bet it doesn't last long.

auntliddy said...

i hope whatever it is, she comes out ok. Everything in show business is so overblown, exaggerated and warped, I dont know how they can even tell when they need help or for what!! lol

Agent**It said...

EmEyeKay - hilarious! and true...

strongerthancoffee said...

Does she like her "stress and anxiety" in pill form or chopped then formed into neat little lines?

Sarah said...

Yay Goheels! Giving up cigarettes was the hardest thing I've done. I also have a friend that's prescribed Adderall, and she lost every spare pound and runs around all jacked up, I know it's not healthy but she likes the boost.

Beta said...

@goheels83
thanks for sharing :)
i've never really seen it where I live (probably its under a different name or brand) and I was wondering why all of the celebs take it, now it makes sense. its scary stuff!

Sarah said...

I hate to say but I have a hard time sympathizing with LeAnn. She's trying to take heat off her embarrassing phone call to the twitter fan. That shit was crazy, straight up.

discoflux said...

Thanks for sharing, goheels, and I'm glad you're in a better place in your life now!

Christine! said...

Good Luck LeAnn. I hope you learn to accept yourself AS YOU ARE and learn trying to please everyone, usually ends up with your needs on the losing end.

I think you are a idiot, a jerk and a famewhore- I welcome the chance for you to prove me wrong.

GOOD LUCK

CharRicho said...

Do rehab places even let you come in to deal with "sress and anxiety"? If I were running that place, I'd say no, sorry, this is a rehabilitation facility for people with addiction issues. What you're looking for is a vacation. Oh wait, her life is a vacation. Wait, why is she stressed?!

Imagine if she had to work 2 jobs and look after 3 kids all on her own like so many women in the country. THAT is stress. This chick has been on 12 holidays in the past 4 months. That is NOT stress.

whocaresnow12 said...

@Char- they do. It's a misconception that rehab is only for substance abuse and eating disorders. Many rehabs treat more anxiety and social issues than the aforementioned.

whocaresnow12 said...

So, she's taking vacation from being on permanent vacation? I want to do that. Oh to have rich people problems.

UnicornsRReal said...

@goheels You rock for getting off that shit. I was on Vyvanse which is adderall 2.0. much cleaner non jittery buzz but DAMN I dropped so much weight I looked like LR (aka a 10 yr old boy body) Gross. I finally got off it but the toll on the body is harsh.

oralangee said...

I bet "Mr. Ed" is saddle-ing up for 30 days of freakishness--drama-free.....

alisontheoriginal said...

Libby - i agree.

here is more info on that call - the women she called and her daughter have comments. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the reason.

Em! You changed your AVI back! I seriously laugh my ass off reading your comments in her voice.

Nellie said...

vyvanse is a good alternative for those who need medication for ADD without the buzz of adderal. I took the smallest dose every couple of days when I needed it. Its a pro-drug so it takes about two hours to completely distribute in the body, which means it has no "rush" like addictive qualities. That said, it is still medication and should be taken seriously.

EmEyeKay said...

@smashbash - for awhile there was too much bad news, we needed kittens. I miss that crazy broad :)

Plus, THOR hasn't been in the random photos lately, and you know we're due.

AKM said...

"Celebitchy posts on LeAnn quite a bit...This could be about drugs (she's always going to the dentist...)"

Help me out...what does going to the dentist have to do with drug abuse? She's getting drugs from the dentist? Has meth mouth? I don't get it.

"It's a misconception that rehab is only for substance abuse and eating disorders. Many rehabs treat more anxiety and social issues than the aforementioned."

Actually, it's quite rare. Insurance companies do not want to pay for a 30-day stay anxiety at $2000 a day; they'd rather pay for $4 generic benzos.

AKM said...

*for anxiety

Frufra said...

@AKM - in my experience, having worked in a dental practice, dentists are a common source of pain med prescriptions. We had one sad dude with a Vicodin addiction who would call constantly with lame toothache tales. Apparently, they have a whole list of docs they'll call to get "just a few pills to get by until I can get in for an appointment".

This dude was a personal friend of the dentist (who wasn't lily-white himself), and ended up in rehab after said dentist pulled him out of a crack house at the request of his family. I wonder whatever happened to that guy :-(.

Jennifer H. said...

I don't care for Leeann one bit, but she owes me no explanation for her rehab. Maybe she, as well as other celebrities, say it's for stress because it's nobody's business anyway.

gladys kravitz said...

I bet Jennifer Giminez is laughing and laughing and laughing (she is good friends with Brandi--you'll notice her onscreen sometimes when Brandi is on RHOBH, and yes, I'm embarassed that I know who she is and also recognize her).

AKM said...

Ah, thanks for the clarification, Frufra. I've not had much dental work other than cleanings (thank God!), so I forgot about that.

Although, now that I think about it, my wisdom teeth surgery provided me with Vicodin, and my very first filling jitters called for Valium. How could I forget that?!

I'm trying to cut out caffeine; I'll blame it on that. ;-)

Momster said...

Both of my kids got Vicodin for their wisdom teeth removal. I saved what they didn't take for my occasional migraines.

The best thing that could happen to her is to sober up and dump Eddie.

Sorry, but I have never liked LR. Her skinny little eyes (they're like slits--and so are Eddie's) and huge nostrils have always looked very unattractive to me. But wow, @alisontheoriginal... that whole link you posted is damning for LR. Crazy shit she does! Also, @Henriette: That b-day cake was just awful. Like the two kids are standing by to watch the couple have sex. LeAnn is mentally ill.

Anonymous said...

She's seriously loopy and I'll leave it at that. However, it's not wise to automatically assume that everyone in rehab is in a substance abuse treatment program. Years ago when I was suffering from severe PTSD and going to therapy for it, the therapist would often suggest that I spend a few days or weeks at one of those fancy rehabs just to get away from the world for a while. It's not impossible for people to enter a rehab facility for stress issues (also had a boyfriend who checked himself in to rehab because of severe anxiety after a trauma.) Sometimes you just need to be away from everything and everyone and focus on you for a while through meditation and therapy dealing through the stress and anxiety of whatever trauma you've experienced.

Sunny said...

Word on the dentists, Frufa

You know all the problems I had recently with dental issues, and every single visit they were trying to push pain meds down my throat. After the 4th "Are you sure?" I finally just started laughing (gallows, I suppose) and shouted I Don't Want Them!

Smiley face, smiley face, smiley face

ablake said...

This is a sad sad little girl.
I wish her the best and hope her time away from the leech she married turns out well for her,
She has been used and manipulated all of her life, it would be nice for her to take control,go back to singing and ditch the baggage

Bit dams said...

i use to really like her. lately..less so. her childhood was pretty messed up. then that marriage to a gay man when she was just a teen. probably lots of baggage. eddie is so "dirty". he's the guy you have sex with, not the guy you marry.

WUWT? said...

When you hear someone is going to rehab, for any or no stated reason, whether or not you like the person, the kindest response is something like, "I hope things work out for you." I get that this is a gossip blog, but we're still human. I hope she finds a way to be happy, and I am glad she is taking the first step.

Lelaina Pierce said...

@rejectedcarebear - that's pretty awesome re: Billy Eichner! He's hilarious!

I'm sure this is over that phone call debacle.
