Stranger Bitch Tells LeAnn Rimes to Eat A Sandwich



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."

that is terribly rude though. idg why people find it so hard to believe that they shouldnt discuss someones weight in public when it's a sensitive issue for 90% of people

Mte. I hate when people have to say something about someone's body when you just know they wouldn't like it if someone was commenting on their body.

You know if it was a stranger said this about a fat celeb, it'd be ONTD fat wank time. For some reason, people feel like it ok to be cruel to thin people.

I got called into the counselors office for a potential eating disorder. And after that my counselor would look at me with pity and make comments like "you looks so pale" *frown* and repeat it a few times for emphasis. Can you say RUDE?


(BTW I'm perfectly healthy)

I agree. People should just mind their own business when it comes to stuff like that imo.
