LeAnn Rimes' tiny frame is under scrutiny yet again.
Publicly criticized for her pin-thin frame, the 28-year-old singer vented her frustrations on Twitter Saturday after a random diner approached her at dinner in Chicago.
"How dare someone come to me at a table with the boys and tell me I need to eat something. What is wrong with people?" Rimes tweeted. "As I'm stuffing my face....have another drink and maybe take a class in manners! Cheers!"
When one of Rimes' Twitter followers suggested that "lots of folks think you are getting too thin" and that she's beginning to "look 12 years old," the country star fired back: "Once again, I'm done talking to rude people who have no right to have an opinion on my body. Out of line!"
"If it happened to someone who wasn't a 'celebrity' it would be rude, but to a public figure it's socially [acceptable]?" Rimes added.
When one follower congratulated Rimes for not punching the stranger, the singer admitted she "wanted to" fight back but "said nothing" instead.
"Eddie [Cibrian]'s mom was so impressed...his parents wanted to jump across the table!" Rimes added.
As the singer's Twitter followers voiced varying degrees of support and concern, Rimes made her feelings about the run-in clear: "You do not have the right to vomit out an opinion of anyone you do not know in front of family at a restaurant. And that's not an 'opinion' -- that's judgement of someone else."

you're beautiful. fuck 'em.
The fucked up this is that I do have disordered eating, and it does trigger it. I am already thinking about not eating in general. Do not tell me that it is "best" to stop eating after 5P.
I'd agree with this, but what about those posed Bikini pictures she was seen in, or the ones she was Tweeting to her fans? They're supposed to see them, but not process any thoughts as to what they're seeing? FUCK THIS BITCH!
That to me is like her releasing a song for her fans and then saying "Enjoy it, but don't render an opinion on it".
It's tacky as hell for somebody to come up to her while she's having lunch with Brandi Glanville's Sons and get personal, but don't act as if you're some private figure who hasn't put themselves out there. If you tweet pictures of yourself, people are going to gain an opinion, it's almost involuntary.
Also, had the fan tweeted "Don't listen to that person, your body is amazing" she wouldn't have thought or tweeted they "OMG, you have no right to have an opinion on my body!!111". But, had she, I would have become a fan of hers for the first time since 1995.
when you go from this, 11 years ago with no chest/rib bones protruding, to how skeletal she is now... people are going to notice. Some will talk shit.
(We get it, LeAnn. You were fat. You lost weight. You were unfaithful and scored someone else's husband/father. Okay. Keep a scrapbook or something--most of us don't care.)
Im pretty sure it was "Mind yo Bi-ness"!
"eat a sandwich/cookie"
"you need to gain weight"
"men like curves"
etc etc. it's so fucking frustrating. like if you assholes wanna bitch, go find my parents and step off! yet if someone were to tell a random fat person to "go run on a treadmill" there'd by hell to pay.
smh.

BUT "You do not have the right to vomit out an opinion of anyone you do not know in front of family at a restaurant. And that's not an 'opinion' -- that's judgement of someone else."
You do have the right... it's called the first amendment. Just saying..
