LeAnn Rimes Breaks Down Crying When Asked About Cheating (VIDEO)

VIDEO

(E!)

LeAnn Rimes breaks down crying while discussing the adulterous origins of her relationship with Eddie Cibrian in a new interview.

VIDEO BELOW

The country singer was married to Dean Sheremet (and Cibrian to Brandi Glanville) when she and Cibrian worked together on the TV film Northern Lights in 2009, falling in love and cheating on their spouses.

In a sit-down with Giuliana Rancic of E!, Rimes is asked, “Why act on it, when you’re both married and you both have families?”

Rimes says, “I never, ever in my heart want to hurt anyone. But… I don’t think anything can separate anything that’s super-connected. You might have had so many wonderful things with each other’s spouses in your relationships, but something along the way broke that. You can’t break what’s broken already.”

That’s when she begins to cry.

“No one, because this is Eddie and my personal conversation, will ever understand how much thought and hurt, even towards each other, were put into our decision.”

    I believe her.

  • MissZee

    i’m sorry but if you felt this “superconnection”, you would have told your spouse that you think you need to separate and think about what they both wanted…do it the rational way…not the way she went away about

  • http://www.facebook.com/MissHaveItMyWay Tamara Turner

    …..no comment

  • Rose

    Yeah well, it’s taking the ‘public’ (inquisitors?) too long to get over it. I’m sorry, but Brandi doesn’t twang my heart strings. Shouldn’t there be some sort of special dispensation for a spouse cheating on a miserable match? Like being ‘rescued.’

  • Almina

    this chick has obvious psychological problems, and im sorry but she isnt even pretty

  • http://twitter.com/BobbiNJ Bobbi

    Amazing how she cries, but not even one tear shows.

  • SuzyQ

    Interviewers who are just aiming their arrows at other people’s misfortunes or, whatever, will not be patronized by me. That goes for KATIE as well who’s questions were just awful when she could see LeAnn was terribly fragile. I won’t be watching. I think this type of behavior is irresponsible and cruel. I don’t get off on other people’s pain

  • CDL CO

    Celebrities are well aware of questions in a sit down on-camera interview ahead of time. The questions are approved and if one comes up that isn’t, the interview comes to a halt through the celeb’s manager or publicist. Perhaps LeAnn wanted to talk about this- or thought she did. Or maybe her publicist thought it would make her appear more human to some of us, which is actually what I was hoping as a Psychologist that also works in the tv industry.

  • DL

    look at you all judging like you live your lives straight out of the ten commandments. how long does someone have to be crucified for before they are forgiven? if she is truly is sorry and i believe that she is; for the pain she cause her ex and everyone involved then God has already forgiven her. but the rest of you immaculate, secular beings continue to throw stones at her like you have never slipped up or done something you were ashamed of in your entire life. maybe not on the scale of an affair but no one is sinless. i am tired of people throwing shade at her, just let it go already. let it go and focus on your own life and helping those around you in need. homeless people, homeless animals, youth, etc. do something good for the world we share and stop sitting there pointing and tearing people down, there is no good in that.

  • guest

    boo hoo. not getting any sympathy for being a lying cheater due to your ugly cry face. people need to understand that the selfish act of cheating affect many. The children had their lives altered due to this dishonesty. Their lives will never be the same. Leann needs to grow up…she better get ready for her turn.

  • Regina1180

    Does she even do anything that merits an interview with other questions? All she has done in the last couple years is break up a family and go to rehab. Oh, she’s also shared her dirty laundry all over the web for the world to see.

  • Molls

    I feel kinda sorry for this poor woman. She’s a lost soul. And what’s wrong with her left eye?

  • Alex

    Nice one LeAnn, why don’t you slice open those old wounds and pour salt in them for your ex-spouses to see and feel. Talk about adding insult to injury; and whatever happened to “no comment”?

    Karma

  • D. Martin

    Hind sight is always 20/20. Maybe that’s why she’s so tore up about it.

  • Scarlet

    How many times does she have to say how sorry she is. Just let her get on with her life. Not 1 of us are perfect. we can only learn from our mistakes

  • SMVB

    I just wish that both sides would decide to stop speaking publicly for the sake of the children involved. It’s bad enough that their parents and now step-parents are at odds, but to amplify it with the constant need to rehash the extramarital affairs is just too much. It happened, those children are aware of that every moment of every day; turn the page.

  • NSN

    Cheating is despicable but at least she did it because she loved that man ( she ended up marrying him, right? ) while someone did it just for fun or whatever stupid reason like Kristen Stewart. She claimed she loved Rob and she was even friends with that idiotic director’s wife. Shameless girl.

  • Tracy Isham

    she is disgusting. not just because they cheated but she is just a horrible attention whore. what, what she slipping away from the tabloids and had to do this?? why now?? she used to be so beautiful. she is gaunt and faded. she looks rode hard and put up wet. it’s only a matter of time before he cheats on her and i can tell she is petrified of that fact.

  • Guest

    She obviously hates herself over the decision. Who wouldn’t? What they did was awful and they both know it but I guess now its eating her up inside

  • jen

    that’s mean. personal remarks about the way she looks and her mental state? why hate on someone you don’t know? It was a totally inappropriate and judgemental question no reporter has the right to ask. What would you think if someone asked Kristen Stewart a similar question.

  • jen

    Giuliana doesn’t look like she’s buying it. But she had no right to question.

  • Jack Ketch

    We might if she’d stop harrassing Brandi the throwing it in her face with stuff like “my boys” and whatever else. She won’t stop, and everyone hates her, and rightfully so.

  • Martina

    Exactly what I have thought!

  • martina

    I don’t know if I am loosing sensitivity to the cheating or just getting older way too fast, but unfortunately this is the reality of today’s life. People are together once there is attraction. And then become attracted to someone else, attraction that is stronger than themselves, so they get selfish and they hurt others on the way.
    To say that, find a person these days who will not cheat is harder than find a diamond.

  • Lena

    The problem with this chick is how she flonted the relationship. Fine things happen but just be discreet about it specially under the circumstances they happened in. She seems a little immature at times, I don’t agree with people bashing others but maybe she needs to lay low at times….

  • kiki

    I don’t think anybody can punish herself any more than she has herself. She wrote a song to her ex husband called What Have I Done. I think part of the problem for her is that she has not received any sign of forgiveness from her Ex. And that is really bothering her. You can’t blame him so she better accept that it may never happen.. Cibrian I hear is not very sorry at all.

  • DL

    harassing brandi? ha! that woman cant get enough media attention. i wish she would stop paying her any attention so that hopefully we wont have to ever hear from her again.

  • Rileyvette

    Horse face slut

  • June

    Kristen only kissed Rupert and came out and apologized to Rob and everyone involved and never got back with Rupert. Rob forgave her and they both moved on. In this situation, there was no forgiveness so it continues to be painful.

  • June

    Why does Giuliana have to ask such personal questions? It’s none of her business. Just because G has a reality show and wants everyone to know about her personal life doesn’t mean everyone else does. You can tell LeAnn is broken about it all.

  • prp99

    oh boo hoo…I guess the paps aren’t following her around anymore.

  • inthenameoflove

    What some people fail to realize is that this woman was capable of falling for a married man – a man with a family: a wife and kids – BECAUSE she is emotionally crippled. She is, weak, does not respect marriage itself and has low self esteem. Any woman in their RIGHT mind would not be okay to share “their” man with his wife and be his crumbs or his EXTRA. Any woman in her right mind would be able to recognize that the “SUPERCONNECTION” is not real – that the feelings are emotions swirling around inside a bubble without real stressors because its SECRET. These relationships (affairs) however, do not exist within a vacuum as they are an extension of the original relationship (in this case both of their marriages) and that is how the affair “relationship” starts and thrives – its based on what they express is missing from their lives with their spouses. These two sought each other because they were “missing” something in their own marriages (in in truth within themselves) and instead of working with their partners, communicating their needs rather than expecting them, they acted like immature children and ran away to something that was easy (in Eddie’s case someone with no kids, no shared bills, mortgage, someone very weak and “searching” etc) and for her whatever issues she had with her husband and may be missing from her childhood. These things don’t just happen. These two were already lost and looking into others to complete them. If she was complete AND STABLE she would not be acting like this “all in the name of love”. Pull it together, the man has a wife and kids (I am speaking as if we were in the moment when she was thinking of cheating on her husband) and he is ALREADY TAKEN and UNAVAILABLE. Had she put the effort that she put in Eddie into her own marriage or worked on HERSELF with that she would be in a MUCH BETTER PLACE. They thought long and hard about their divorces AFTER they hopped irresponsibly and selfishly in bed together. Its pretty easy to walk away from a marriage once you have cheated and the fidelity is gone. Especially if either did not think their spouses would forgive them if they wanted to stay. They did not think long and HARD about cheating. That is a patent face lie. They only thought about themselves when they were kicking it and flirting and spending time together. No woman in her right mind would think a man who would be unfaithful to his WIFE and lie to her face and his kids and ABANDON THEM ALL is a stud. WTF?? And justify his abandonment because “he loves me”. What a crock of you know what. Many people do not understand the difference between infatuation, romantic love, true love/committed love. MARRIAGE HAS ITS EBBS AND FLOWS – work through the rough patches or try as you MADE THE COMMITMENT. GROW UP. No physical abuse, then its worth the effort. If two people want to make it work, you can. Cheating is not the answer. Only a divorce can end a marriage so do that first and handle your business with your spouse THEN you can make a sensible decision about what or WHO is next. That is the true definition of taking care of your heart. It bugs me when therapists support this “type” of life and these emotions. Something is off with this woman. Eddie can’t see that? It is disgusting that he is okay with someone with so many holes and is so emotionally crippled. I really do not understand what he is attracted to? Her insecurities? Knowing how lost she is in him because she thinks he solves all of her problems? Okay, I am off my soap box. I am not trying to judge but it would be interesting if they both went back to their spouses, they forgive them and life moved on. This chick realizes she is still hurting and her issue REALLY was not her spouse. Its her emptiness and thats why she is sobbing all of the time and unresolved. She actually needs time BY HERSELF.

  • Milla

    Here’s a question. How can one feel a “superconnection” with someone outside of marriage if you weren’t already acting inappropriately in the first place? Friendship is one thing…this is a whole ‘nother ball of wax. I’m sick of grown a$$, selfish people always trying to justify their selish behavior as if it were just some accident of fate. It was a conscious decision. Now deal with the inevitable backlash of the action you intentionally did. No sympathy.

  • Debbie Deveroux

    Oh please, pour me, pour me, pour me another. She not only destroyed her marriage she destroyed someone elses also and Eddie is just as much to blame as she. So go cry those crocodile tears to someone else, harlett!

  • Krissy

    She has NO TEARS!! Such fake cryings its sick…. she’s not sorry

  • D. Martin

    This article is not even ABOUT Kristen Stewart — it’s about LeAnn Rimes and what SHE’S going through. This is not an opportunity for you to tear down someone you don’t like. Move on already…

  • Lola

    She didn’t ask a question she just stated the obvious. While i don’t find LeAnn Rimes unattractive I agree that she clearly has some mental issues. It’s not all that uncommon. People like to act like mental illness is horrible desease, people like to act like it’s taboo and uncommon. In reality mental illness comes in many different forms and is alot more common then people think. LeAnn Rimes has shown many signs of some sort of mental illness. From her strange twitter wars to her extreamly thin frame.

  • D. Martin

    Brandi has commented that she was over everything and was GLAD that the boys liked LeAnn and stated that LeAnn treated them well and that she was thankful for that. When LeAnn made the “my boys” statement — and I don’t think she did it to hurt Brandi — Brandi did a 180! And no, no one has to “rightfully” hate her. DL is right — we need to focus on what’s going on in our own lives instead of someone else’s. None of us have the right to judge.

  • jen

    “Why act on it, when you’re both married and you both have families?” – That’s a question. A very personal, judgmental question.
    People slam each other with the mental illness accusation far too quickly. Emotional instability isn’t mental illness. I have no idea what sort of problems Rimes has but attacking her mental state and physical attractiveness is so low and unnecessary. Lot of haters out there.

  • jen

    There’s a lot of cheating in HW, moreso I’d say than in the rest of the population. Sometimes those affairs go public. It can be interesting to compare how the public responds to the various guilty parties. If Kristen had told us she loved Rupert, would the general public and her fans have responded differently? Maybe. That strategy seemed to eventually work for Brad and Angie. It hasn’t for LeAnn.
    I’m not pointing this out to attack anyone involved – that’s not my place. It is the public response to these scandals that I’m wondering about.

  • CB1319

    While LeeAnn Rimes is not my favorite person, get over all this and move on! Jeezzzz! It has been about three years at least and I, for one, do not like living in the past. Like all of us, I am sure that they have some regrets. Over the way they got together, I am sure that, if they had it to do over, would probably change a few things. However, I think they would still be together. I know someone who did a similar thing. Both, high school sweethearts, had been married for over 20 years to other people. They found each other again, did just what these two did. I think the ex-spouses are very happy now, though they had to work thru all that. One is remarried and having a blast. The sweethearts are very, very happy and it is hard not to imagine them together. Let us not judge.

    We are in such a cultural backwater on this marriage, cheating, sex, affair, kissing thing that you would think we were back before the 1920′s anyway. The 50′s were “chaste” on the surface, the surface only. The 40′s were during the war and the girlfriends and wives followed their men. The 30′s were depression years and I grew up in a suburb that was family oriented completely. The 20′s were wild and before that I don’t know too much. But now seems very much like a replay of the late 1880′s and 1890′s where a girl could do something very innocent and if it were perceived in the least sexual, she was ruined. A kiss for example. EEOf course this was only in upper society where women were still arranging their marriages for social prestige. Edith Wharton depicts this in her character of Lily Bart in House of Mirth. Lily is completely innocent but circumstances and gossips turn it into something else and she cannot defend herself and doesn’t. Interesting comparison I just made. I hadn’t connected that before.

  • http://twilightirruption.blogspot.com/ abbeysbooks

    Look the LeAnne Rimes story was posted to sychronize with the “cheating scandal” manufactured by the media. They knew very well that it would resonates with Kristen’s “scandal” that they are promoting all the time with their Kristen bashing. contiguity Law: things that occur together in time and/or space are connected. Every animal trainer must know this law.

    Don’t blame NSN as the blame lies with Gossip Cop Out and its continued brainwashing of less observant and articulate women. This was done on purpose. She is crying. Why didn’t Kristen cry? They want commentors to comment that if she were really sorry she would cry in public like LeAnne.

  • http://fenyolife.blogspot.cz/ Austea

    i wonder why she just won’t shup up instead of making even bigger fool of herself by constant talking?

  • Mr Sir

    That was awful judgmental of you, to call us immaculate & secular.

  • Mr Sir

    That was awful judgmental of you, to say Brandi can’t get enough media attention.

  • Broken_62312

    she’s gross. behind all the glamour is just a slutty attention whore. she deserves to feel more pain for what she did.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Rita-Steele/100001381969343 Rita Steele

    i do not think u can break up a marriage unless it is already broken

  • sunflower5

    karma.. is a bitch and they both will pay. As for Eddie, he’s suppose to tell Leann she needs to watch what she says about Brandi because of the kids. At least have that respect for the mother of your kids. Brandi is a much better looking woman than leann and Eddie cheated so Leann turn is coming.

  • fallinginplace

    Well that was illuminating. Just admit it: you wanted him and you took him, and the hell with the consequences to other people.

  • Sam

    You know, when it’s already that painful and harmful to begin with, maybe it’s not the right relationship for you to be in after all.

  • D. Martin

    I’m trying to understand your post…so you’re saying NSN had no choice? Nah. That I’m not buying. The thing is — it shouldn’t resonate with Kristen’s scandal. They are two different people with two different outcomes. But I think I see your point.

    LeAnn got beat up in the press — and it’s apparently affected her. And as far as Kristen crying…we read about it but do we have to see it? She apologized, and pretty much remained out of the public eye. And lost weight – visibly lost weight. I don’t necessarily want to see someone’s tears. That’s between her and Rob.

  • http://twilightirruption.blogspot.com/ abbeysbooks

    NSN is just one of those people who goes where their gut takes them. If “cheating” resonated with her then she would connect it with Kristen. Many people are that way. Horses are too. If you are turning them around in a ring and turn into the fence at the same post, you are going to be cantering around one day and go flying as the horse turns into that post.
    Kristen did nothing. The photos are photoshopped. It seems you still believe she did do something with Sanders. Do you? If I lie to you 25 times and tell the truth 3 times are you gonna believe me. And now that justiceforkristen has analyzed the “car make-out pics” as false, what does anyone have to go on? The apology that can’t be verified. Or if it is accurate, then why make it since they were all fake? Who was being protected? And why?

    So you believe the tabloids that Kristen was crying? Wouldn’t you be severely disturbed and lost weight if someone forged photos of you that way and sold them to a tabloid who published them and smeared you. That’s enough to make anyone cry and lose weight. Kristen is not a stoic person. She is very sensitive which she needs to be to be a good actress. Why would someone do this to me? Why indeed?

  • MBD441

    I thought she sounded so fake and stupid… ughhh. Fake emotion. She didn’t have an answer for why she gave in and cheated. I believe with all of my heart that in a few years, we will hear about hm cheating on her and that they are getting divorced. He’s a very good looking man and women throw themselves on guys like that, married or not.

  • JustMe

    LeAnn’s real regret in hooking up with a married man and destroying his family and hers is she has practically destroyed her singing career. She thought she would be right up there very making music and money like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. Instead she has been reduced to a very unstable home wrecker who can’t keep her mouth shut or her clothes on.

  • Mel

    Where are the actual tears? The woman is also also a professional actress right? She could of thrown some actual tears in there, very sloppy.

  • Toni

    She’s crying in every interview, she admits to crying on her floor at home. The lady has major mental issues. I certainly wouldn’t want my kids left in her care, she is def not stable by any stretch of the imagination, unless she’s just acting/lying of course, but even then…

    My latest book,
    “I Steal Wives: A serial adulterer reveals the REAL reasons more and more
    ‘happily married’ women are cheating” is a powerful look at this EXPLOSIVE
    topic of female infidelity. Research shows its not only on the rise, but rivals
    or EXCEEDS that of male cheating. And the REAL reasons aren’t the typical
    blather you hear on talk-TV or read in the SECOND-HAND information of some
    psychologist’s self-help book.

    This book is the FIRST BOOK EVER WRITTEN on female infidelity from the FIRST-HAND experience of
    a serial adulterer, who cheated with the wives/girlfriends of over 25 married
    men (and a few women), and who also happens to be a therapist (never cheated
    with clients) and has an eye for patterns in behavior, but more importantly,
    the core beliefs that drive behavior! The deep and powerful insights of this
    book will startle women and shock men! And here’s a tip: Cheating always,
    always, always boils down to the exact same reason at the core: FEAR!

    “I Steal Wives” is a salacious, self-deprecating,
    at times funny, and penetratingly insightful look into what is now the very
    cutting-edge of relationships. It’s the relationship version of “How to
    Secure Your House, as told by a professional burglar!” It will forever change
    how you do relationships and view life!

    Check it out now at Amazon and Barnes and Noble!! It’s VERY
    POPULAR! People are loving it and it’s selling FAST!

  • D. Martin

    No, I don’t believe she did anything with Sanders. I’m going with photoshopped but I answer according to the poster. I still believe in forgiveness and second chances and I try to answer that way. But no – I have seen more and I have seen enough to know that they are photoshopped. I’m on board now — it just took me longer. I have not had the chance to read the “justice for Kristen” site. Bits & pieces but not all. Need to do that.

  • http://twilightirruption.blogspot.com/ abbeysbooks

    Justicerforkristen is very detailed and relentless. I would suggest reading the latest and going backwards until your head aches and you stop! I think the best approach for me is just to say in one sentence that she didn’t cheat and give some links. If someone really wants to know they will follow. If they are there just to argue, stir up trouble, maintain their judgmental stance then they won’t. But if they come at me a second time I call them on it.
