LeAnn Rimes is continuing to defend her thin frame and her personal trainer has joined in saying that the singer is not too thin, claiming she is toned and healthy.
According to PEOPLE, Rimes has said that the "hoopla about my body" has been hurtful.
Recently, the criticism intensified after she tweeted a photo of herself in a skimpy blue bikini while she was on her honeymoon with husband Eddie Cibrian.
Rimes is quoted saying, "For someone like me who is healthy, who works hard for my body, it's very frustrating. I work out and take care of myself, and not in an over-obsessive way."

The 28-year-old country singer also talks about the various names people have called her after seeing the pictures. "People are calling me bulimic or anorexic and these are real issues and diseases – that I don't have."
Rimes' trainer, named Michael Jackson, also adds, "My main concern with her is that she's toned and healthy. And she is."
Get more details on Rimes's diet, workout and health in the latest PEOPLE magazine on stands Friday.

Interesting her trainer is named Michael Jackson-someone who was also in denail about his lifestyle choices. She's probably bangin this trainer too. So its hurtful what folks are saying about her-ahhh-poor widdle baby-sort of like how hurtful it was for Eddie's wife when the pictures surfaced when you guys were out in public kissing-when the too of you denied anything was going on? Suck it up and deal with it-you're not get any sympathy from me.

Who cares, Leann is nasty and has pretty low morals. Yuck on looks too.

As someone who has wrestled with anorexia and bulimia for nearly a lifetime, AND who has appeared fit and healthy all the while, this constant discussion tweaks the sleeping lion: Eating disorders love to be heard, and Leann's incessant whining and self-defense alerts the radar of those of us who have done the same thing. YES, perhaps she is a teeny creature who is now toned, but the I doubt that the amount of food she eats is sufficient for the number of calories she expends in her training and performing. It would be great to give her the benefit of the doubt, but her approach is not inspiring sympathy; she should opt for silence and getting on with her life.

well said, Sandy!!!!
you sound like you know what you're talking about. I like everyone else thinks that there is a problem with her. She just doesn't look healthy, and like you said, it "loves to be heard".
I hope she sees the problem before it's too late. I also hope you are doing well:)
Sandy, I too suffered with anorexia at 27 years of age and I denied that anything was wrong with me even though I was at a size I had NEVER been in my entire life. My therapy was to work out to relieve the stress levels in my life however, my food intake was strictly monitored, if I failed to eat my calories in a day I could not work out. Seeing these pictures remind me of me and I think that Leann does have a problem and her trainer is not seeing it either.
Eating disorders are a choice.You either eat or you don't.It's a way to get attention.
I just wish I could make millions for being ugly and yodeling
Reply
Well you are halfway there...but can you yodel?
You probably could if you just learn to yodel.
@Sandy, you've said it so eloquently...She should shut her pie hole and eat a couple of pies...She is scarry skinny and it's a shame she can't see that when she looks in the mirror..and that's part of the problem.

She's still talking about her stupid picture? Nobody cares if she's skinny or fat, or ugly, or happy or sad. She screwed up big time when she cheated, lied, and broke up a family. The nerve she had to disturb Eddie's wife. What a loser!
Reply
Eddie's a loser too...did the wife a favor...
You are so right. Perhaps it's guilt eating away at her. Can't blame anyone on who they fall in love with but the way it's handled in the end can be helped. She should be ashamed of herself.
If everyone is saying that you are too skinny then you are too skinny. That is not healthy regardless of what some trainer might think. She needs to find a new trainer and start taking better care of herself.

I know right? She pays the trainer. He works for her. What is he going to say, you are too skinny and should stop working out and starving yourself so much?
Whatever. A thousand people on the internet criticizing her isn't going to force her to eat. She'll eat when she's hungry and she'll get help when and if she decides she needs it. If she does have a problem, that's up to family to intervene.
