Leann Rimes needs to face facts. She's an ugly ducklin' who just happened to hit it lucky. She is NOT a star, she is NOT that talented and her singing leaves most people yawning. The guy she married must be totally blind, ive seen his pictures and he's a really great looking guy, why he chose to leave a beautiful wife for Leann is a real shocker to me and I think most folks.

I had a crush on Leann growing up, but now I wouldn't give her the time of day. She has let her fame go to her head, and as far as I'm concerned she is a loser. I don't normally say bad things about others, but this is the truth. She has bad mental problems and needs help. Her fifteen minutes are up and she can't mentally take it. She is yesterday's news.

Why do people think she is so pretty and has a nice body? There is nothing there. Keep wondering why she is in the news?? She doesn't sing like she use too...down hill. She had the vocals but not now.

Yeah, her dentist is her problem. Maybe no one wants to see her concerts because they have lost respect for her. So not wanting to shoulder any of the blame, she sues her dentist.
