LeAnn Rimes Facts

- She was born in Mississippi but relocated to Garland, Texas at the age of six with her family.
- She became an experienced singer by the age of nine.
- LeAnn was discovered by Bill Mack, a Dallas-based DJ and record promoter.
- She has struggled with psoriasis since she was 2 years old.
- She is friends with actor Jensen Ackles, with whom she also dated.
- In the movie The Horse Whisperer (1998), LeAnn turned down the role of “Grace”, which she later regretted.
- She cites Barbra Streisand, Wynonna Judd, and Reba McEntire as her major musical influences.
- In December 2022, it was revealed that LeAnn had suffered a bleed on her vocal cords, which was caused by the violent cough.
She has a beautiful fit and toned body that she works out hard for. Too bad she’s unattractive in the face. And too bad her heart is cold and she had an affair with the married father of two young children while also married herself and blames it on “meant to be.” She was selfish and so was Eddie and now they both get to be married to selfish cheaters.
If you don’t like her, then why comment? It took two people to cheat. Yes its wrong and she apologized and said it was reckless. People make mistakes. We all fall short. We all do wrong. Hating on her isn’t right either. She admitted to it. Eddie did too.
