LeAnn Rimes tweets about ‘insane’ report that she owes $350K to friends
I finally got a chance to read Star Magazine’s full LeAnn Rimes story in this week’s issue and there wasn’t a whole of stuff that wasn’t covered in the online editions. Basically, OK! Magazine and Star got their hands on some legal documents that show that LeAnn and Eddie Cibrian borrowed $350,000 from their friends, Dave and Lizzie Fradin, back in 2012. They borrowed that huge sum to help make a down payment on their Hollywood Hills home, which cost $3 million at the time. Since 2012, LeAnn and Eddie have not paid back one dime of the $350,000. Star says that LeAnn has pretty much blown through her fortune, which at one time was estimated at $20 million or thereabouts (but probably significantly less than that when she married Eddie).
So, did Star’s print edition have anything new? A few extra quotes, basically. “LeAnn burned through her $20 million fortune.” And as for all of the vacations and luxury items LeAnn and Eddie purchase? “Most of the purchases were made with credit cards… Eddie thought he’d hit the jackpot by marrying a Grammy winner… the idea they’d be desperate enough to ask friends for money never crossed his mind.” Ouch. So what does LeAnn have to say about all this? This went down on her Twitter yesterday:
LeAnn tweets: “Some people are straight up CRAY lol”
A reply: “@leannrimes Is this about those saying your home may B foreclosed on LeAnn? They R nuts if yes. God bless U always! Holly (a day 1 fan of U)”
LeAnn: “@SweetHeartHolly no but that insane too lol”
And that’s all she had to say. And she was tweeting with fans for most of the day. So is it “insane” to suggest that LeAnn and Eddie owe their close friends $350,000 when the tabloids have the legal documents to back it up? Who is lying here? That’s a rhetorical question.
