LeAnn Rimes Sues Woman Who Recorded Conversation Of LeAnn Being Nasty


LeAnn Rimes is hiding out in a treatment facility but still seems to have plenty of time to communicate with all of her people and find the time to call this site and Celebitchy "hate" sites. Umm, you cheated on your husband with another married man with kids. You go on vacation 24/7 and do nothing at all except post photos of yourself in bikinis and cling to your husband desperately hoping he won't cheat on you like he did his ex. Where is the hate? I am all about the love. I sing that Coke commercial from the 70's in my sleep. Kumbaya is my ring tone. Anyway, LeAnn is suing the school teacher who recorded a phone conversation which I posted here last week. In that call, LeAnn said some really nasty things and she would have denied everything if it had not been recorded. The teacher is being sued along with her daughter and LeAnn wants the police involved. Although it is a crime in California to record a phone conversation without both parties being aware of it, LeAnn was in a restaurant when she made the call and was surrounded by people at a table, all of whom who could also have recorded the call if it was on speaker and for sure LeAnn's portion of it so her expectation of privacy was none, so I think LeAnn is going to be out of luck. LeAnn says the recording of the call basically put her in treatment. Huh? How is some school teacher in Northern California who posts comments about you on her Twitter causing you stress and anxiety? Here is what LeAnn should do. Spend 30 days in treatment and then get off Twitter and the world would soon forget her. There would be no more bikini snaps posted for millions. No more showing off the cheating couple and people would go on with their lives.

  1. Celebitchy always has brandy glanvilles friends posting on it, defending her and trashing leann. I don't really like Leann, but those loons are legit cray cray.

    1. I've posted there under "Roma" for years at CB. I actually wrote them a letter last night. I don't like LeAnn but there is full on bullying and hating that would be shocking if it was towards a teenage girl who stole someone's bf. And everytime I try to be rational, I get called a troll. How can they not see that stalling LeAnn is talking too?

  2. I read LeAnn posts there, and they're all about LeAnn. The woman is troubled, for real.

    And ITA w/ Enty...
    1. NO expectation of privacy when in public & on speaker phone.

    2. LeAnn put LeAnn into treatment, not this random lady who got bullied over the phone.

  3. ok i know people will get irritated but "this " Enty is not a lawyer. Perhaps you all could stick to writing about things within your areas of expertise. I aint no LeAnn fan but honestly your legal reasoning here is frightening.

    Not to mention as we saw last week .. what she actually said was completely misconstrued and actually made more so by the recorded conversion.

    and the continued beating of a dead horse is getting old. She aint the first person to mess with a married man nor is she the first married woman to mess with a married man. I am not sure if the LeAnn obsession or the Aniston obsession is worse. Both are becoming borderline unhinged behavior.

    Go back to being spiller of gossip and leave the stalking and picking at every movement to others. Get back to basic if you will. read back a few years and see your evolution. go back to what drew us all here. Yo are now doing what political blogs do and grab any detail you can and distort and magnify.

  5. Wow..if she had to go into treatment for "stress and anxiety" caused by Twitter, she'd really be a raging lunatic if she had to deal with the REAL WORLD like the rest of us. Ugh. Just ugh. I wish some of these pampered little stars had a clue what shit was really like..

  6. @Maggie, correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Brandi has also commented on that site and given interviews. I think all parties are horrible but celebitchy is extremely one-sided.

  8. Libby it does not say she was in speaker phone it, and in any case the lawsuit is not about a third party who recorded a conversation between the two of them. The law prohibits one party of a conversation from recording the conversation without consent of the other party.

  9. She is just awful. Also, if you had any kind of self esteem at all why would you bother CALLING people who are cyber harassing you? I can't think of any successful celebrities - who are mentally sound - who would go to such lengths. I dont think people will feel sorry for her for going to rehab because it is so OBVIOUS that she's doing it for just that - a sympathy ploy. We see this time and again, a person who grew up in the spotlight who has absolutely no grips on rationality in the real world.

    ReplyDelete
  10. LeAnn is extremely immature and lacking in self esteem. All she does is post pictures in bikinis on a regular basis, and like Enty said, cling to her husband. Her obssession with Brandi is beyond unhealthy. The way she would show up at the kids' soccer games, sit near Brandi and then post those pictures, just screams STALKING.

    Radar reported that Eddie not only wanted her to get off Twitter, but she is already worried that he is cheating. I take what Radar says with a grain of salt, but if there is any truth to it, I think this girl needs serious help.

  11. Enty isn't saying she called him on the telephone - she called him a "hate site".

  12. @ ClearlyDisturbed

    why are you so invested in LeAnn? are you a friend?

    ReplyDelete
  13. @lovelylunacy - from what I understand, LeAnn called this woman because the woman had stopped following LeAnn on Twitter, but I think was a fan of Brandi's. LeAnn was trying to get this woman back (to following her), so to speak. How off the rails do you have to be to care about what someone you don't know thinks about you, let alone call them and plead your case.

    This woman (teacher) should be upset with her friend who called her and passed the phone to LeAnn.

    ReplyDelete
  14. CD--I saw pictures of her making the call, phone on the table, yelling into it, surrounded by a bunch of twitter friends licking their chops. LeAnn was grinning and licking hers too.

    Actually, the law is much more nuanced. Just as it's legal to sell photos of a girl flashing her boobs on a public street-- WITHOUT her having to sign a release (how GGW got their start), this kind of PUBLIC phone call display has no expectation of privacy.

    You realize LeAnn is the problem, right? You can argue with me all day, but if you can't see LeAnn makes her own drama, your vision is skewed.

  20. Regardless of who was sitting at the table with her, this woman is the one hat recorded the conversation illegally and then proceeded to post sound bytes of her choosing along with disparaging remarks. I'm sure both parties behaved poorly, but the law is on LeAnn's side in this instance. It's pretty cut and dry.

    ReplyDelete
  21. In case anyone doesn't know, the way to LeAnn's heart is through insulting Brandi on twitter. LeAnn makes 'friends' this way, throws them a RT bone here and there, and thanks them for defending her. Her fans get star-struck and go off the rails defending her everywhere on the internet to get LeAnn's attention. The 'best' Brandi insulters/LeAnn defenders get to meet or hang out with LeAnn.

    I know most everyone knows this, but I am compelled to remind y'all of this at this moment in time.

    ReplyDelete
  22. OMG you saw all that from a picture thats precious.


    not a friend and not invested. I just have serious issues when anyone advocates that some of us dont deserve the same protections under the law. either for being gay like me or for being a self involved celebrity.

    I just dont see her behavior all that different from anyone else. I swear I dont understand some of you. I have seen plenty of mixed family situations show up at kids functions before. Some are friendly most are uncomfortable and some are crazy. tis life.

    no need to get so defensive I didn't defend her phone call at all merely pointed out what the law was and I see where you are going with nuances but in this case you are not correct.

  26. I can't stand LeAnn but she really needs to get over this. I mean, people sit on twitter all day writing stupid crap about celebrities. Why does she care so much about what people think of her? She comes off as troubled and insecure. She needs a psychiatrist.

    Celebitchy is a stupid site. The writers are so judgmental and will block anyone who doesn't agree with them. You don't have to insult them or anyone else, just disagree w/Kaiser as well as her mostly one sided opinions and you will be blocked. The writers and the commentators really live up to the name of that site.

  27. and I think this thread is evolving into something that I mentioned just like political sites. we are taking sides and fighting amongst ourselves. Over trivial shit regarding two people that would be long forgotten if not for their on going feud; LOL

    Long gone are the days of a community united .. hunting down timmy shimmy clues or figuring out secret love children who end up dating their mothers lol

    ReplyDelete
  28. Yes, I am correct. If she knew she was on speakerphone, which she surely did with the noise of the restaurant & the snickering of 5 or so of LeAnn's 'BFFs' in the background, the woman was completely in her rights the moment she pushed record.

    And I don't know about you, but If I were called by a bully, I'd record it too. Telephonic threats & stalking are very serious crimes. Any sane person would have recorded that call, for their own safety.

  30. where exactly does this exception to law exist. nowhere does it say that if you are on a speaker phone in the company of 5 friends licking your chops the party of the first part may record said conversation without disclosing said conversation will be recorded edited and distributed publicly out of context.

    I am sorry. There is just no legal basis for what you are arguing.

    ReplyDelete
  31. It doesn't say shevwason speakerphone. From what I've read on TMZ she called, all on her own, seemingly NOT on speakerphone. Apparently, this woman and LeAnn have a friend in common and that's how she got her phone number. She called her up, identified herself and told this woman she had 5 minutes to say whatever she wanted.

  32. Libby is 100% right. And FWIW, CD, you sound like you have a huge chip on your shoulder.

  36. How do you record a phone call? I'm genuinely asking because I have no idea how to do it.

    Issaissi, I completely agree about Celebitchy. I had enough after Kaiser wrote a post about her crush on Julian Assange and defended Wikileaks. I disagreed because I think what he did was wrong and she deleted my posts. She was defending someone releasing information and she was essentially censoring me. Idiot.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Gosh CD, you're blowing me away with your lawyer-talk! lol

    There are photos of the incident. A judge can decide if there was an expectation of privacy. That's why they call them judges, btw, not to get TOO technical on you.

    1. This teacher's work address and the name of her children's school was published online by Leann's minions prior to this call. Also, attempts are being made by people to get her fired. Additionally, she was assured by Rob Shuter in the Huffington Post blog that her full name would not be used. It was published anyway and her name is being published at sites like Celebuzz that Leann pays. This wss before the lawsuit.

  41. Did LeAnn disclose that she was in a public space on speaker phone?

  43. Readers need to look this up. Lots of misinformation in the comments. It's on TMZ, as well as the lawsuit that mentions CDAN, which I read last night. The entire phone call is online.

    It's completely stupid, but look it up. Too hard to rewrite exactly what happened when all you need to do is go back and read the old articles, and the one on Celebitchy.

  44. I think the woman Leann called should file a counter suit for harassment and let them hash it out in court. Also she did give the woman 5 minutes after calling her a B*itch.

    1. No, Leann started the call by saying "Hey bitch, you have 5 minutes to say whatever you want to me". That didn't get recorded but the call went on for at least 20 minutes.

  46. Leann needs help - that's for sure.

    Celebitchy, especially Kaiser, are hypocrites. Whilst I don't necessarily disagree with their opinion of Leann, it seems some what hypocritical to tell people to "stop trolling" when encourage their readers to post negative comments. If they were serious about trolling then they would remove the negative comments, some of which are quite nasty. But the only time they remove comments or ban you, is if as Issaissi says, you disagree with Kaiser.

    I've come to the conclusion that Celebitchy enjoy hate campaigns, and Leann is one of their targets (although she doesn't really help her case much), as is Kate (Dutchess of Cambridge) and Jennifer Aniston. However, they seem to handle the hate a lot better than Leann.

    Unfortunately even though I'm banned, I still can't seem to stop myself from looking at Celebitchy. I know - it's pathetic.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Leann is losing this battle like she's losing at life. She's basically suing this poor lady and calling her a bully all over the internet for showing Leann's true colors. She is assuming most people don't see her for the batshit crazy person she is, and if she can only have people see how wrong it is for her to be seen as such, everyone will believe how perfect she is, but she is wrong. This trick needs to Sit Down and learn how to be a decent person instead of a psycho.

  48. ClearlyDisturbed ...you have so much wrong on this it's hysterical. As for taking sides you started this shit storm you have now found yourself in, so quit trying to back peddle and play nice because you clearly don't play nice. It doesn't help that you don't understand basic law in regards to your defense of LeAnn. You're both mental midgets that need to learn to shut up because when either of you open your ignorant traps all you do is dig that hole deeper.

  62. last post on the phone thing .. people need to be aware of local laws. In California there are special carve out regarding the use of cell phones, including cell to cell, and landline to cell. Due to the portable nature of these devices there is typically a stronger burden and recommendation to obtain unanimous consent to record as well to immediately stop recording if that consent is rescinded.

    Hopefully FFF will be fun and we can bond over that post. except for Surfer who is now my mortal enemy and mimeses for life.

  64. CD--nice google, but there's TONS of precedent about public places, witnesses, speaker phones, AND preemptively recording a potentially threatening/bullying phone call. Recording a bully without his knowledge is placed BELOW the illegal act of MAKING the call, as it should be.

    ReplyDelete
  75. BTW, "public place" 2 party consent exceptions are for face to face conversations. Phone calls fall under electronic communication and are subject to wiretapping law which requires express consent from both parties in CA. IF she was on a speaker phone, Leanne may lose in a civil trial but criminally, the other woman likely has a problem.

  76. All this is about is LeAnn trying to save face. She thought she would be ohhhh sooo clever confronting a "hater" on the phone. She thought she could out wit her and the caller slammed her and out played her by recording it and blasting on the internet. And really, you can't unring the bell once it is out there.

    So LeAnn does what she only knows what to do. Sick her lawyers on the woman. No matter how dopey LeAnn is her pockets run much deeper than the woman who recorded it. The lawyers will try to bury her in legal bills. It's an old trick. If I can't beat you, I'll bankrupt you.

    To the poster above, I assume she recorded it with a recording app. It is how Mel Gibson was recorded by Oksana.

  81. We are private investigators and record conversations all the time. Florida, like California, is what's known as a two party state. You cannot record ANY type of conversation, whether face to face or on the phone, without the consent of both parties (unless you have a warrant, of course). That includes overheard conversations in restaurants. The woman who recorded this could have heard about a plot to blow up city hall and the recording would not be admissible. Really surprised this woman hasn't been charged criminally.

    @anita_mark - we have a tape recorder that you can plug into a land line phone. When we record a conversation or interview, we ask permission at the beginning of the tape to record, and then ask at the end of the tape if they agreed to be recorded. Basically CYA.

    The only exception to a recorded conversation of course is if you leave a message on voice mail - you are reasonably expected to know you are being recorded.

    ReplyDelete
  82. I can't imagine being a celeb and calling some random individual -- just some regular person who has no real power to hurt me -- and doing what LeAnn did. LeAnn has issues FAR beyond this incident, although this is totally indicative of how unbalanced she is. I don't know if she's someone who annoys me or someone I should pity, really.

    ReplyDelete
  83. CD: I am curious and not in a bitchy way. I understand you're taking the legal side of it an applying it to someone I think most of here find a bit sad and pathetic (and a holy host of other feelings) so have you had to deal with this before? Are you in the legal arena. My thoughts are that given the complexities of how Leanne went about it the case would be much less clear cut and quite murky. Didn't Leann post her side only to have the other post their conversation? If I were on a jury I'd really question as to whether she was concerned about a private conversation when it began on line. Now with new technolgy the laws as originally written take on a new complexity. Would you agree?

  84. So glad to hear that others are as turned off by Celebitchy as I am, although I used to enjoy the site and haven't been banned yet. Their Tom Cruise coverage was beyond belief - furious because he took his daughter to Disneyland, livid because he left her a generous trust fund.

    Reading the comments on one of their pet hate topics reminds me of the "Two Minutes Hate" scene in the novel 1984. Everyone sits in a room and watches Goldstein, Big Brother's enemy, on a giant TV screen and yells and jeers and chants "Hate, Hate, Hate." In the Celebitchy world, it could be Rimes, Cruise, Aniston, Alex Pettifer - whomever today's target is. If you disagree, they will shout you down.

    In general, I try to avoid hate and gravitate towards love. I also sign out of topics on this blog when they get too hateful - like yesterday's are-all-Republicans-racists? debate.

  86. God forbid I speak up for Leanne in any of this (because let's face it...she needs to get a grip) but I read that this woman stalked her on facebook and created numerous fake accounts in order to attack and harrass Leanne. Further, I heard on the radio today a different part of the recording where Leanne was trying to reason with her and just wanted to know why she disliked her so much.

    I guess now I will be bashed as a Leanne lover. Oh, well.

  88. I am compelled to check Celebitchy for sightings of my crush, Michael Fassbender, as Kaiser is equally, if not more, enamored. Next to my crush on David Cassidy, circa 1972, my Fassy crush at the age of 50, is my midlife crisis. (Hubby doesn't mind, as his crush is Penelope Cruz).
    The comments on the other site are very "mean girl", so I am not comfortable commenting there... I feel more comfy here, and even when commenters disagree, they should remember this is a drop in the ocean in the "big scheme of things". We are united in our inappropriate level of nosiness in things that don't concern us!!! (It's better than some other addictions, eh?)

  91. Leanne isn't in treatment because she feels she needs treatment, she's only in "treatment" as a strategy to help strengthen this stupid idiotic case against the teacher, & to perpetuate her "victim" personna. I see right through this.

  94. As someone who personally knows the woman who Leann is going after. i can tell you the only thing she ever did wrong was have a negative opinion of Leann-not TO Leann, just in general. Like you see someone post a story on her on twitter and comment on it in general. Once that happened Leann's fanatics went after her like a pack of rabid dogs, harassing her & posting her private info on twitter-they have done that to a lot of people. So she went private and locked her account. They STILL tried to mess with her-all the while Leann buying them gifts and flying them to private concerts for being so "loyal."
    Kim didn't make fake accounts -but I've seen people do that-I've seen people do that to all celebs.
    Then she gets a random phone call from Leann so she can hear her side of the story-not sure what story she is referring to and....for why does she feel the need to make this girl understand whatever she didn't agree with??? Its crazy-I mean batsh!t insane. She needs to stop obsessing about what people think about her.

    The hate on this website is very clear. Much of it was directed at me a few days ago.

    I think I'll drop a note to Ms. Rimes about this and maybe she'll adopt my cause. Worst she can do is say no.

    "Just ignore it" doesn't work until everyone stops Googling.

    I think I'll contact every celebrity who's ever been disparaged on this site and see if I can find any allies for my cause. LeAnn and I suddenly have a great deal in common.

    The no-one-likes-them-so-they-deserved-it defense is not a very good one.

    I hope LeAnn takes every cent this woman has, or maybe this site can agree to lay off her, if she agrees to forgive and forget.

    it's time someone stood up to the creeps here who do this to people, and the sites who enable it.

    ReplyDelete
  106. @lola: I totally agree with you but I can certainly see why Kim would record the conversation.
    Leann sitting at a table of people who have harassed her for a year, Kim has been private-but Leann admited that she had someone get copies of her tweets so Leann could read them, then a few weeks later she calls her out of the blue and calls her a bitch. These people also know where she lives and have posted the information online.
    If I was Kim-I'd have protected myself too. There is no rational reasoning behind what Leann was doing and why she was behaving that way.
    Whatever Kim said to anger her online-I get but you can go after every person who thinks you act inappropriate when you insist on posting stories of yourself every day.

  116. I once (tried) to do this book self-help course thing that was meant to help me release creative locks and kinks in my head that were keeping me from creating art and such. One of the exercises instructed you to sit down and write 3 pages of whatever was floating around in your head at the time, stream of consciousness style. No editing, no formatting, just type it all out. You were to do this first thing in the morning before doing anything else.

    I think doing this might help LeAnn. I've got major anxiety too and I'm pretty much a hermit bc I cant deal with society (wow, anyone who follows my posts would totally be surprised by that revelation lol *sarcastic face*)

  124. LeAnne is one of many in a long line of attention mongering has-beens. It sounds harsh I know, but she needs to face it. If she was at all secure in herself she would not be reacting so fervently to criticism made by "civilians". She clings onto Eddie for dear life as deep down she knows that when you steal a man from someone else, another woman is viable to steal him from you too. Karma is ugly and she lives in every neighborhood. It is unfortunate as LeAnne is actually a talented singer but has gotten caught up in all of this vapid and petty crappola. Obviously she is an adult and is responsible for all of her actions, but chooses to act like a 16 year old girl. She needs to get back to her roots and away from all the drama she seems to be causing. Oh, and dump Eddie because he is a shallow, sad excuse for a man who is secretly afraid of getting old me thinks.

  125. Rejectedcarebear- you are also one of my favorites. Don't take what some posters say personally. If I don't like a thread I walk away.

  126. @Lola LOVE your avatar.Huge bug fan.
    @Smash..I'm trying to undertand you. Does that mean than all of others not listed will be ignored. I feel like I try very hard to be kind. I don't call people names or bait people and my question posed to CD above was of a curious nature. Obviously I am not like Groucho, unwilling to belong to any group that would have me as a member. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt but have to say, it really felt like you're setting up an exclusive top posters club, no others need apply.

    As someone has mentioned before this site can be a wonderful community and I'm with Sunny (hey grrrl!!better today) that we should all be civil as though we were talking face to face.

    However, I have one minor complaint. To only have a conversation with those we deem appropriate it becomes quite cliquey.(sp?). While no one wants or should be bullied, being ignored falls into that realm as well.

    Lately it has seemed like the popular girls are carrying on a convo without anyone else entering into it.Now while I understand ignoring trolls is important, just remember being kind isn't to just a few. It's to everyone. That is all.

  127. tracynator, unfortunately that is not an excuse for apparently breaking 2 laws. She likely would have gotten away with the unlawful recording if she hadn't sought attention for her actions by disseminating it for public consumption. And she DID seek attention...I read some of her posts in the comments at CB right after this story broke (after Kim released the recordings).

    Karleep...between the three of them there is enough attention mongering to go around...and around...and around. Not a single person in this fiasco has taken anything remotely close to the high road.

    1. So did I. And I respectfully don't agree. Kim was attacked and is continuing to be attacked. Defending yourself imho is not attention seeking. I avoid Celebitchy as a rule. But I guess CD upthread threatened to send Celebitchy stans to CDaN because they don't like Enty posting negative Leann Rimes stories. It's not following along with her PR campaign. I love that Enty can't be bought and I will continue to read CDaN. I'm no legal expert so won't comment about something I know nothing about.

  128. Just to add- I too can't stand Celebitchy and have been moderated and censored to hell on that site, which I applaud Enty for NOT doing. When it comes to several topics, that place is nothing but chicken squaking and NOT enjoyable, and I'd hate to see this devolve into the same.

  129. I really can't stand this broad...and if she doesn't have a publicist she should get one and if she does have one she needs to fire him/her. Every move she has made since she got with her husband has been wrong and she just keeps making it worse and worse. It's bad what she did, breaking up a family, but what's done is done and she should spend some time reflecting on how that might make other people not like her. A good publicist could have helped with all this.

  139. I find it odd that the call was recorded. With the exception of private investigators, no one has a tape recorder anymore, let alone one nearby with a recordable tape at hand. So why have a call recording app? And even if she did, did she record the call from start to finish? Because when I see my niece doing something cute and I want a picture, she's done by the time the camera app opens on my stupid phone.

    So if she recorded the whole thing, did she know it was Leanne calling? What number came up (assuming Leanne's name isnt in the call display)? Based on this, and my extreme lack of knowledge of everything I'm talking about, I feel there was prior history between the two.

    As for celebitchy, I don't know if I was banned since my last comment said I was leaving (and it was censored). The endless dong comments and Kaiser copying and pasting long articles was too much. And she has reall bad taste in fashion. The dresses she always likes are hideous.

  152. I didn't read all the comments, so maybe someone already posted this - but I don't think the "expectation of privacy" analysis applies to this situation of recordings.

    I'm sorry K's putting you through that. FB drama is the worst. The fantasy faery artist birds I know on FB get themselves into huge drama shitstorms every 6 mos. or so. Im one of the mods on a group they congregate to, so I find myself in the middle of it more than I'd like. Some people just need to turn their lives into soap operas, it's just distasteful when bystanders get pulled in. ;/

  163. Dia! I wondered where you were! I had to take a break a few weeks back myself, and I can definitely see why anyone would want to take one now. Glad you're back, and hopefully this crap will blow over ASAP. There are a LOT of people I love to hear from on this site -- can't even name 'em all, b/c I'd inevitably leave someone off the list -- and when it's fun and happy here, it's a great place to be.

  164. @AKM and Smashie and others:

    As I alluded to (not so secretly) before, I have a touch of the Sookie Stackhouse myself - very intuitive and very sensitive. And when people are all screaming and cursing it feels like pins and needles and knifes and blades.

    So I just hop on the Sunny Kumbaya bus until it blows over. Maybe it's a bad thing to be away so long. Let's the evil meanies take root.

    Glad to be back! I'm ready to start that Conga Line @corriander shea!

  165. @coriander - Are we psychic friend's together? Girl I have some crazy anxiety too. I blame it on the woo woo stuff. I learned how to buffer the outside crazy, but when the "force field" gets week the anxiety creeps back in.

    Hugs to you!

    Glad to be back everyone :D

  166. @dia I don't like to talk about mine publicly more than I have to. People make the connection all the time though, lol. Must be the Faery thing.... ~>} ^~^ {<~

    But yeah. Us psychos (psychics) have to learn a completely different way of relating to and surviving in the world. I totally feel like I'm living a double life sometimes.

  167. @coriander - ME TOO!

    We are the modern day super heroes! Sorry for calling you out. You can go back into hiding. Your secret is safe with me!!!

    My therapist told me I have to come out of the psychic closet. LOL!
